PROXY STATEMENT FOR SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
OF INDUSTREA ACQUISITION CORP.
AND
PROSPECTUS FOR 63,386,709 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
OF
CONCRETE PUMPING HOLDINGS ACQUISITION CORP.
(TO BE RENAMED CONCRETE PUMPING HOLDINGS, INC.)
The board of directors of Industrea Acquisition Corp. (“Industrea”) has unanimously approved the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 7, 2018, by and among Industrea, Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Industrea (“Newco”), Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CPH”), certain subsidiaries of Newco, and PGP Investors, LLC, solely in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which (a) a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into CPH, with CPH surviving the merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco (the “CPH Merger”), and (b) a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into Industrea, with Industrea surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco (the “Industrea Merger”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are referred to herein as the “Business Combination.” A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.
Under the Merger Agreement, (i) pursuant to the CPH Merger, Newco will indirectly acquire CPH for aggregate consideration of  $610 million (subject to certain customary adjustments), payable in cash after taking into account (x) a portion of the shares of CPH capital stock that are contributed to Newco in exchange for shares of Newco’s common stock (“Newco common stock”) (valued at $10.20 per share) prior to the consummation of the CPH Merger and (y) any CPH options that are converted into Newco options, and (ii) pursuant to the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea’s common stock will be exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of common stock of Newco, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea’s common stock will be exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants. The cash portion of the consideration payable in the CPH Merger is expected to be between $446.9 million and $550.0 million, depending on the number of shares of Industrea’s Class A common stock (“public shares”) that are redeemed in connection with the closing of the Business Combination.
Newco intends to apply to list its common stock and warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “BBCP” and “BBCPW,” respectively, upon the closing of the Business Combination. Industrea’s publicly-traded common stock, units and warrants are currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “INDU,” “INDUU” and “INDUW,” respectively. Industrea’s publicly-traded units will automatically separate into the component securities upon consummation of the Business Combination.
This proxy statement/prospectus covers the following shares of Newco common stock: (i) assuming no public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, 23,000,000 shares to be issued in exchange for shares of Class A common stock initially issued in Industrea’s initial public offering, (ii) 23,000,000 shares underlying the public warrants, which will become exercisable for shares of Newco common stock following the Business Combination, (iii) up to 7,696,078 shares that may be issued in exchange for shares of Class A common stock issued upon the conversion of Class B common stock prior to closing of the Business Combination, and (iv) up to 9,690,631 shares that may be issuable in exchange for shares of Class A common stock issued in private placements completed immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination.
Industrea is providing the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to its stockholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at a special meeting of stockholders to be held on [      ], 2018 for the purpose of voting on the the Merger Agreement and the other matters described herein. Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, we urge all of Industrea’s stockholders to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the accompanying financials statements of Industrea and CPH, carefully and in their entirety. In particular, we urge you to read carefully the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 51 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

Each of Industrea and Newco is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.
NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION OR RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Newco and Industrea have entered into (i) a subscription agreement with the Argand Partners Fund , LP (the “Argand Investor”), an affiliate of our sponsor, Industrea Alexandria LLC (our “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Argand Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination 5,333,333 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $54.4 million, plus, up to an additional 2,450,980 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or up to an aggregate cash purchase price of  $25.0 million, to offset redemptions of public shares, if any, in connection with the Business Combination if such redemptions exceed $106.5 million; (ii) a subscription agreement with an institutional investor (the “Lead Common Investor”), pursuant to which (x) the Lead Common Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination an aggregate of 1,715,686 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $17.5 million and (y) Industrea has agreed to issue an aggregate of 190,632 additional shares of Industrea’s common stock to the Lead Common Investor as consideration for the Lead Common Investor’s obligation to purchase Industrea’s common stock under such agreement (and the Sponsor will also forfeit an equal number of Founder Shares); and (iii) a subscription agreement with Nuveen Alternatives Advisors, LLC (together with one or more of its funds and accounts “Nuveen”), pursuant to which Nuveen has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, an aggregate of 2,450,980 shares of Newco’s Series A Zero-Dividend Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of $25.0 million. In addition, Concrete Merger Sub, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco that will merge with and into CPH in the CPH Merger, has entered into debt commitment letters with Credit Suisse Loan Funding LLC and Credit Suisse AG (“CS AG”) and Wells Fargo Securities (“Wells Fargo”) pursuant to which (i) CS AG has agreed to make available to the combined company at the closing of the Business Combination a seven-year term loan facility with an aggregate principal amount of  $350 million and (ii) Wells Fargo has agreed to make available to the combined company at the closing of the Business Combination a five-year asset based revolving credit facility in the aggregate committed amount of $60 million.
It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, assuming no public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, taking into account (a) the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis and (b) all “in-the-money” options that will be issued at the closing of the Business Combination to certain current and former members of CPH management: (i) Industrea’s public stockholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 52% in Newco; (ii) our Sponsor and its affiliates and our current independent directors (collectively, our “Initial Stockholders”) will own approximately 25% in Newco; (iii) CPH management will own approximately 9% (based on the most recent estimated investment amounts for members of CPH management, which may increase prior to the closing of the Business Combination); (iv) Nuveen will own approximately 6% in Newco; (v) the Lead Common Investor will own approximately 4%; (vi) BBCP Investors, LLC, an affiliate of PGP Investors LLC, will own approximately 2%; and (vii) the former CPH employee shareholders will hold approximately 2% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Newco.

The record date for the Special Meeting is [           ], 2018. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date may vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof. A complete list of our stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Special Meeting will be available for ten days before the Special Meeting at our principal executive offices for inspection by stockholders during ordinary business hours for any purpose germane to the Special Meeting.
Our Sponsor and current independent directors (together with our Sponsor, our “Initial Stockholders”), officers and other current directors have agreed to vote any shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) held by them and any public shares purchased during or after our initial public offering (our “IPO”) in favor of our Business Combination. Currently, our Initial Stockholders own 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, including all of the Founder Shares.
Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, we are providing our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem, upon the closing of the Business Combination, public shares then held by them for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission totaling $8,050,000 that we will pay to the underwriters of our IPO or transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2018, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.30. Public stockholders may elect to redeem their shares even if they vote “FOR” the Business Combination.
You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
(i)
(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and
(ii)
prior to [                 ], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018, (a) submit a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Industrea’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), that Industrea redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the Transfer Agent, physically or electronically through Depository Trust Company.
Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing.
A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the shares of Class A common stock included in the units sold in our IPO. We have no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Industrea Charter, other than the aforementioned 15% threshold, except that in no event will we redeem shares of our Class A common stock in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. Each redemption of public shares by our public stockholders will reduce the amount in our trust account. Holders of our outstanding public warrants do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination. Unless otherwise specified, the information in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus assumes that none of our public stockholders exercise their redemption rights with respect to their public shares.
Our Initial Stockholders, current officers and other current directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any shares of our common stock they may hold in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, and the Founder Shares will be excluded from the pro rata

calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price. Currently, our Initial Stockholders own 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, including all of the Founder Shares. Our Initial Stockholders, directors and officers have agreed to vote any shares of Industrea’s common stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination.
The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the proposals other than the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, other than the Adjournment Proposal, which is not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal set forth in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.
Approval of the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock of Industrea. Approval of the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting. The election of directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Industrea’s board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” each of these proposals.
By Order of the Board of Directors,
David A.B. Brown
Chairman of the Board of Directors

There are currently 28,750,000 shares of Industrea common stock issued and outstanding, consisting of  (i) 23,000,000 public shares originally sold as part of the IPO and (ii) 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock that were initially issued to our Initial Stockholders prior to our IPO.

The warrants will become exercisable commencing 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination, and they will expire five years after the completion the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Once the warrants become exercisable, Industrea may redeem the outstanding warrants at a price of  $0.01 per warrant, if, and only if, the last sale price of the Class A common stock (or Newco common stock following the Business Combination) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day before Industrea sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. The private placement warrants, however, are non-redeemable so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees. At the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase common stock of the post-combination company. For more information regarding the warrants, please see the section entitled “Description of the Newco Securities.”

CPH is a leading provider of concrete pumping services and concrete waste management services in the highly fragmented U.S. and U.K. markets based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brands in both markets (Brundage-Bone and Camfaud, respectively). Concrete pumping is a highly specialized method of concrete placement that requires highly-skilled operators to position a truck-mounted fully-articulating boom for precise delivery of ready-mix concrete from mixer trucks to placing crews on a job site. CPH’s large fleet of specialized pumping equipment and highly-trained operators position CPH to deliver concrete placement solutions that facilitate substantial labor cost savings to customers, shorten concrete placement times, enhance worksite safety and improve construction quality. CPH is also the leading provider of concrete waste management services in the U.S. market based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brand, Eco-Pan. Highly complementary to its core concrete pumping service, Eco-Pan provides a full-service, cost-effective, regulatory-compliant solution to manage environmental issues caused by concrete washout. As of April 30, 2018, CPH provides concrete pumping services in the United States from a diversified footprint of 80 locations across 22 states and operates under the brand Brundage-Bone, provides concrete pumping services in the United Kingdom from 28 locations and operates under the brand Camfaud, and provides route-based concrete waste management services from 13 locations in the United States under the brand Eco-Pan. CPH’s fleet is operated by approximately 662 experienced employees as of April 30, 2018, each of whom is required to complete rigorous training and safety
7

programs. As of April 30, 2018, CPH’s fleet of 936 total pieces of equipment consisted of 616 boom pumps, ranging in size from 17 to 65 meters, 57 placing booms, 15 telebelts and 248 stationary pumps and other specialized concrete placing equipment. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017, CPH generated revenues of  $211.2 million and net income of  $0.9 million. For the same period, Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue was $236.6 million, Pro Forma Net Income was $6.2 million and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA was $78.5 million. These pro forma financial results give effect to the acquisition of CPH’s Camfaud segment in November 2016. For additional information on Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.” For more information about CPH, please see the sections entitled “Information About CPH,” “CPH Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Newco Management after the Business Combination.”

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (a) a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into CPH, with CPH surviving the merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco, and (b) a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into Industrea, with Industrea surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. As a result of the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock will be exchanged for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea common stock will be assumed by Newco and will become exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants. Prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, the outstanding Founder Shares are expected to convert into Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter, subject to the limitations (i) set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter (as described herein) and (ii) that, in the event that there are no redemptions by public stockholders, the Sponsor has agreed that the conversion ratio for the Founder Shares shall be no greater than 1:1.0331, such that the number of Class A shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Founder Shares in such case would be 5,940,632 Class A shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). As a result, after giving effect to all forfeitures, Industrea expects to issue between 4,436,275 and 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the conversion of the Founder Shares.

The merger consideration payable in cash in the CPH Merger is expected to be between $446.9 million and $550.0 million (subject to certain customary adjustments), depending on the number of public shares that are redeemed in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. Prior to the consummation of the CPH Merger, certain CPH stockholders will contribute shares of CPH capital stock to Newco in exchange for shares of Newco common stock (valued at $10.20 per share).

In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Newco and Industrea have entered into (i) a subscription agreement with the Argand Investor, pursuant to which the Argand Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination 5,333,333 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of $54.4 million, plus up to an additional 2,450,980 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of $10.20 per share, or up to an aggregate cash purchase price of  $25.0 million, to offset redemptions of public shares, if any, in connection with the Business Combination if such redemptions exceed $106.5 million; (ii) a subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor, pursuant to which (x) the Lead Common Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination an aggregate of 1,715,686 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $17.5 million and (y) Industrea has agreed to issue an aggregate of 190,632 additional shares of Industrea common stock to the Lead Common Investor as consideration for the Lead Common Investor’s obligation to purchase Industrea common stock under such agreement (and the Sponsor will also forfeit an equal number
8

of Founder Shares); (iii) a subscription agreement with Nuveen, pursuant to which Nuveen has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination an aggregate of 2,450,980 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $25.0 million.

In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Concrete Merger Sub, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco that will merge with and into CPH in the CPH Merger, has entered into the Debt Commitment Letters with the Debt Commitment Parties, pursuant to which (i) CS AG has agreed to make available to the combined company at the closing of the Business Combination a seven-year term loan facility with an aggregate principal amount of  $350 million and (ii) Wells Fargo has agreed to make available to the combined company at the closing of the Business Combination a five-year asset based revolving credit facility in the aggregate committed amount of  $60 million.

Under the Merger Agreement and related agreements, redemptions of public shares in connection with the Business Combination, if any, will be offset in the following manner: (i) the first $106.5 million of redemptions will be offset using proceeds from the Debt Financing and the PIPE Financing; (ii) the next $25.0 million of redemptions will be offset by the sale to the Argand Investor of Industrea common stock at $10.20 per share under the Argand Subscription Agreement; and (iii) any remaining redemptions will be offset by the contribution by Peninsula of additional shares of CPH capital stock to Newco in exchange for additional shares of Newco common stock, in which case the Sponsor will also forfeit to Industrea for cancellation a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares of Industrea common stock issued to Peninsula under this clause (iii) (such that the net dilutive effect of such sale is equivalent to a sale price of  $10.20 per share), plus 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor.

Pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing; and (ii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, any director appointed by Peninsula upon reaching such threshhold will resign and the right will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.

It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, assuming no public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, taking into account (a) the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis and (b) all “in-the-money” options that will be issued at the closing of the Business Combination to certain current and former members of CPH Management: (i) Industrea’s public stockholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 52% in Newco; (ii) our Initial Stockholders and the Argand Investor will own approximately 25% in Newco; (iii) CPH Management will own approximately 9% (based on the most recent estimated Rollover amounts for members of CPH Management, which may increase at Closing in accordance with the Rollover Agreements); (iv) Nuveen will own approximately 6% in Newco; (v) the Lead Common Investor will own approximately 4%; (vi) Peninsula will own approximately 2%; and (vii) the former CPH employee shareholders will hold approximately 2% in Newco. The ownership percentages with respect to Newco following the Business Combination does not take into account (a) warrants to purchase common stock that will remain outstanding immediately following the Business Combination or (b) the issuance of any shares upon completion of the Business Combination under the Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy

As a result, after giving effect to all forfeitures, Industrea expects to issue between 4,436,275 and 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the conversion of the Founder Shares. For more information, please see the sections entitled “Summary of the Proxy Statement — Impact of the Business Combination on Public Float” and “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

Industrea’s management and board of directors considered various factors in determining whether to approve the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination. For more information about our decision-making process, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Industrea Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, in connection with the Business Combination, holders of our public shares may elect to have their public shares redeemed for cash at the applicable redemption price per share calculated in accordance with the Industrea Charter. As of August 31, 2018, this would have amounted to approximately $10.30 per share. If a holder exercises its redemption rights, then such holder will be exchanging its public shares for cash and will not own shares of the post-combination company and will not participate in the future growth of the post-combination company, if any. Such a holder will be entitled to receive cash for its public shares only if it properly demands redemption and delivers its shares (either physically or electronically) to our transfer agent at least two business days prior to the Special Meeting. Please see the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights.”

In addition to voting on the proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination at the Special Meeting, Industrea stockholders will be asked to vote on:

In considering the recommendation of the Industrea Board to vote for the proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal, you should be aware that our Sponsor and certain members of the Industrea Board and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally. The Industrea Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination and transaction agreements and in recommending to our stockholders that they vote in favor of the proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. These interests include, among other things:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain circumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business
11

Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 6, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;

the right of our Sponsor and independent directors to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Sponsor and independent directors upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.

Q:
Why am I receiving this proxy statement?
A:
Our stockholders are being asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination, among other proposals.
On September 7, 2018, Industrea, Newco, CPH, certain subsidiaries of Newco, and PGP Investors, LLC, solely in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative, entered into the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which (a) a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into CPH, with CPH surviving the merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco, and (b) a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into Industrea, with Industrea surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. As a result of the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock will be exchanged for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea common stock will be exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants.
Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement and customary adjustments set forth therein, the aggregate purchase price for the Business Combination is expected to be approximately $610 million. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.
This proxy statement/prospectus and its Annexes contain important information about the proposed Business Combination and the other matters to be acted upon at the Special Meeting. You should read this proxy statement/prospectus and its Annexes carefully and in their entirety.
Your vote is important. You are encouraged to submit your proxy as soon as possible after carefully reviewing this proxy statement/prospectus and its Annexes.
Q:
When and where is the Special Meeting?
A:
The Special Meeting will be held on [           ], 2018, at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Winston & Strawn LLP, located at 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166.
Q:
What are the specific proposals on which I am being asked to vote at the Special Meeting?
A:
Industrea’s stockholders are being asked to approve the following proposals:
1.
Business Combination Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement, dated as of September 7, 2018, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A, and approve the Business Combination;
2.
Nasdaq Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve, for purposes of complying with applicable Nasdaq listing rules, the issuance of more than 20% of Industrea’s issued and outstanding common stock pursuant to the Business Combination;
3.
Charter Proposals — To consider and vote upon separate proposals to approve the following material differences between the Newco Charter that will be in effect upon the closing of the Business Combination and the Industrea Charter:
a.
the name of the new public company will be “Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc.” as opposed to “Industrea Acquisition Corp.”;
13

b.
Newco will have 500,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, as opposed to Industrea having 220,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock; and
c.
the Newco Charter will not include the various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies that the Industrea Charter contains (such as the obligation to dissolve and liquidate if a business combination is not consummated in a certain period of time);
4.
Director Election Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to elect nine directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of Newco;
5.
Incentive Plan Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Incentive Plan, which is an incentive compensation plan for employees, directors and consultants of Newco and its subsidiaries, including CPH, a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/​prospectus as Annex C; and
6.
Adjournment Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal. This proposal will only be presented at the Special Meeting if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal.
Q:
Are the proposals conditioned on one another?
A:
Yes. The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the proposals other than the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, other than the Adjournment Proposal, which is not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. It is important for you to note that in the event that the Business Combination Proposal or the Nasdaq Proposal does not receive the requisite vote for approval, then we will not consummate the Business Combination. If we do not consummate the Business Combination and fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public stockholders.
Q:
Why is Industrea providing stockholders with the opportunity to vote on the Business Combination?
A:
Under the Industrea Charter, we must provide all holders of public shares with the opportunity to have their public shares redeemed upon the consummation of our initial business combination either in conjunction with a tender offer or in conjunction with a stockholder vote. For business and other reasons, we have elected to provide our stockholders with the opportunity to have their public shares redeemed in connection with a stockholder vote rather than a tender offer. Therefore, we are seeking to obtain the approval of our stockholders of the Business Combination Proposal in order to allow our public stockholders to effectuate redemptions of their public shares in connection with the closing of our Business Combination. The adoption of the Merger Agreement is required under Delaware law and the approval of the Business Combination is required under the Industrea Charter. In addition, such approval is also a condition to the closing of the Business Combination under the Merger Agreement.
Q:
What revenues and profits/losses has CPH generated in the last three years?
A:
CPH generated revenues of  $211.2 million, $172.4 million and $147.4 million and net income of $0.9 million, $6.2 million and $3.5 million for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
For additional information, please see the sections entitled “Selected Historical Financial Information of CPH” and “CPH Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Q:
What will happen in the Business Combination?
A:
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (a) a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into CPH, with CPH surviving the merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco, and (b) a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into Industrea, with Industrea surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. As a result of the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock will be exchanged for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea common stock will be exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants. Prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, the outstanding Founder Shares are expected to convert into Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter, subject to the limitations (i) set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter (as described herein) and (ii) that, in the event that there are no redemptions by public stockholders, the Sponsor has agreed that the conversion ratio for the Founder Shares shall be no greater than 1:1.0331, such that the number of Class A shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Founder Shares in such case would be 5,940,632 Class A shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). As a result, after giving effect to all forfeitures, Industrea expects to issue between 4,436,275 and 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the conversion of the Founder Shares.
Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement and customary adjustments set forth therein, the aggregate purchase price for the Business Combination and related transactions is expected to be approximately $610 million. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/​prospectus as Annex A.
Q:
Following the Business Combination, will Industrea’s securities continue to trade on a stock exchange?
A:
No. As a result of the Business Combination, Industrea will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. Newco intends to apply to list the Newco common stock and warrants on Nasdaq under the symbols “BBCP” and “BBCPW,” respectively, upon the closing of the Business Combination.
Q:
How has the announcement of the Business Combination affected the trading price of Industrea’s Class A common stock?
A:
On September 6, 2018, the trading date before the public announcement of the Business Combination, our units, public shares and public warrants closed at $10.50, $9.97 and $0.60, respectively. On [           ], 2018, the trading date immediately prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our units, public shares and public warrants closed at $[    ], $[    ] and $[    ], respectively.
Q:
Is the Business Combination the first step in a “going private” transaction?
A:
No. Industrea does not intend for the Business Combination to be the first step in a “going private” transaction. One of the primary purposes of the Business Combination is to provide a platform for CPH to access the U.S. public markets.
Q:
Will the management of CPH change in the Business Combination?
A:
We anticipate that all of the executive officers of CPH will remain with the post-combination company. Bruce Young, Iain Humphries, David A.B. Brown, Tariq Osman, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan, John M. Piecuch and Heather L. Faust, have been nominated to serve as directors of Newco upon completion of the business combination.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing. to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing; and (ii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued
15

and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, any director appointed by Peninsula upon reaching such threshhold will resign and the right will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
Please see the sections entitled “The Director Election Proposal” and “Newco Management After the Business Combination” for additional information.
Q:
What conditions must be satisfied to complete the Business Combination?
A:
There are a number of closing conditions in the Merger Agreement, including the approval by Industrea stockholders of the Business Combination Proposal and the Business Combination. For a summary of the conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to completion of the business combination, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Merger Agreement.”
Q:
Why is Industrea proposing the Charter Proposals?
A:
In the judgment of the Industrea Board, the Charter Proposals are desirable for the following reasons: (i) the name of the new public company is desirable to reflect the business combination with CPH and the combined business going forward; (ii) the greater number of authorized number of shares of capital stock is desirable for Newco to have sufficient shares to issue to the holders of common stock and warrants of Industrea in connection with the Business Combination and have additional authorized shares for financing its business, for acquiring other businesses, for forming strategic partnerships and alliances and for stock dividends and stock splits; and (iii) the provisions that relate to the operation of Industrea as a blank check company prior to the consummation of its initial business combination would not be applicable to Newco (such as the obligation to dissolve and liquidate if a business combination is not consummated in a certain period of time).
Q:
Why is Industrea proposing the Director Election Proposal?
A:
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Newco Board is expected to consist of nine directors divided into three classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to Newco’s first annual meeting of stockholders) serving a three-year term. If each director nominee is elected at the Special Meeting, Heather L. Faust, David G. Hall and Iain Humphries will be Class I directors serving until the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, Brian Hodges, John M. Piecuch and Howard D. Morgan will be Class II directors serving until the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, and David A.B. Brown, Tariq Osman and Bruce Young will be Class III directors serving until the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, or in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier resignation, removal or death. Industrea believes it is in the best interests of stockholders to allow stockholders to vote upon the election of newly appointed directors.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing; and (ii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock post-Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, any director appointed by Peninsula upon reaching such threshhold will resign and the right will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
Please see the section entitled “The Director Election Proposal” for additional information.

Q:
Why is Industrea proposing the Incentive Plan Proposal?
A:
The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to further align the interests of the eligible participants with those of Newco’s stockholders by providing long-term incentive compensation opportunities tied to the performance of the post-combination company. Please see the section entitled “The Incentive Plan Proposal” for additional information.
Q:
Why is Industrea proposing the Adjournment Proposal?
A:
We are proposing the Adjournment Proposal to allow the Industrea Board to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates to permit further solicitation of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal, but no other proposal if the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals and the Incentive Plan Proposal are approved. Please see the section entitled “The Adjournment Proposal” for additional information.
Q:
What happens if I sell my shares of Class A common stock before the Special Meeting?
A:
The record date for the Special Meeting is earlier than the date that the Business Combination is expected to be completed. If you transfer your shares of Class A common stock after the record date, but before the Special Meeting, unless the transferee obtains from you a proxy to vote those shares, you will retain your right to vote at the Special Meeting. However, you will not be able to seek redemption of your shares of Class A common stock because you will no longer be able to deliver them for cancellation upon consummation of the Business Combination. If you transfer your shares of Class A common stock prior to the record date, you will have no right to vote those shares at the Special Meeting or redeem those shares for a pro rata portion of the proceeds held in our trust account.
Q:
What vote is required to approve the proposals presented at the Special Meeting?
A:
Approval of the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock. A stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.
Our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the Business Combination Proposal.
Approval of the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting. Assuming a valid quorum is established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.
The election of directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. This means that the nine director nominees will be elected if they receive more affirmative votes than any other nominee for the same position. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors. Assuming a valid quorum is established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have no effect on the election of directors.
17

Q:
What happens if the Business Combination Proposal is not approved?
A:
If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved and we do not consummate a business combination by August 1, 2019, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account.
Q:
May Industrea, its Sponsor or Industrea’s directors or officers or their affiliates purchase shares in connection with the Business Combination?
A:
In connection with the stockholder vote to approve the proposed Business Combination, our Sponsor, directors or officers or their respective affiliates may privately negotiate transactions to purchase shares from stockholders who would have otherwise elected to have their shares redeemed in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules for a per-share pro rata portion of the trust account. None of our directors or officers or their respective affiliates will make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller or during a restricted period under Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such selling stockholder, although still the record holder of our shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights, and could include a contractual provision that directs such selling stockholder to vote such shares in a manner directed by the purchaser. In the event that our Sponsor, directors or officers or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling stockholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. Any such privately negotiated purchases may be effected at purchase prices that are below or in excess of the per-share pro rata portion of the trust account.
Q:
How many votes do I have at the Special Meeting?
A:
Our stockholders are entitled to one vote on each proposal presented at the Special Meeting for each share of Industrea common stock held of record as of  [           ], 2018, the record date for the Special Meeting. As of the close of business on the record date, there were 28,750,000 outstanding shares of Industrea common stock.
Q:
What constitutes a quorum at the Special Meeting?
A:
A majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock entitled to vote as of the record date at the Special Meeting must be present, in person or represented by proxy, at the Special Meeting to constitute a quorum and in order to conduct business at the Special Meeting. Abstentions will be counted as present for the purpose of determining a quorum. Our Initial Stockholders, who currently own 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock, will count towards this quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the chairman of the Special Meeting has power to adjourn the Special Meeting. As of the record date for the Special Meeting, 14,375,001 shares of Industrea common stock would be required to achieve a quorum.
Q:
How will Industrea’s Sponsor, directors and officers vote?
A:
Prior to our IPO, we entered into agreements with our Sponsor and each of our directors and officers, pursuant to which each agreed to vote any shares of Industrea common stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. None of our Sponsor, directors or officers has purchased any shares of Industrea common stock during or after our IPO and, as of the date of this proxy statement/​prospectus, neither we nor our Sponsor, directors or officers have entered into agreements, and are not currently in negotiations, to purchase shares prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. Currently, our Initial Stockholders own 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock, including all of the Founder Shares, and will be able to vote all such shares at the Special Meeting.
18

Q:
What interests do the Sponsor and Industrea’s current officers and directors have in the Business Combination?
A:
Our Sponsor and certain members of the Industrea Board and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from or in addition to (and which may conflict with) your interests. You should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain circumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 7, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;

the right of our Initial Stockholders to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Initial Stockholders upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.
These interests may influence our directors in making their recommendation that you vote in favor of the approval of the Business Combination.
19

Q:
Did the Industrea Board obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Business Combination?
A:
No. The Industrea Charter does not require the Industrea Board to seek a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with a business combination unless the target business is affiliated with our Sponsor, directors or officers.
Q:
What happens if I vote against the Business Combination Proposal?
A:
If you vote against the Business Combination Proposal but the Business Combination Proposal still obtains the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock voted at the Special Meeting, then the Business Combination Proposal will be approved and, assuming the approval of the Charter Proposals and the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions to Closing, the Business Combination will be consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
If you vote against the Business Combination Proposal and the Business Combination Proposal does not obtain the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock voted at the Special Meeting, then the Business Combination Proposal will fail and we will not consummate the Business Combination. If we do not consummate the Business Combination, we may continue to try to complete an initial business combination with a different target business until August 1, 2019. If we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, then we will be required to dissolve and liquidate the trust account by returning the then-remaining funds in such account to our public stockholders.
Q:
Do I have redemption rights?
A:
Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, we are providing our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem, upon the closing of the Business Combination, public shares then held by them for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with the IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission totaling $8,050,000 that we will pay to the underwriters of our IPO or transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2018, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.30.
You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
(i)
(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and
(ii)
prior to [    ], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018, (a) submit a written request to the Transfer Agent that Industrea redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.
Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing.
A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the shares of Class A common stock included in the units sold in our IPO. We have no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Industrea Charter, other than the aforementioned 15% threshold, except that in no event will we redeem shares of our Class A common
20

stock in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. Each redemption of public shares by our public stockholders will reduce the amount in our trust account. Holders of our outstanding public warrants do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.
Additionally, shares properly tendered for redemption will only be redeemed if the Business Combination is consummated; otherwise holders of such shares will only be entitled to a pro rata portion of the trust account (including interest but net of franchise and income taxes payable) in connection with the liquidation of the trust account, unless we complete an alternative business combination prior to August 1, 2019.
Q:
Can the Initial Stockholders redeem their Founder Shares in connection with consummation of the Business Combination?
A:
No. Our Initial Stockholders, officers and directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and any public shares they may hold in connection with the consummation of our Business Combination.
Q:
Is there a limit on the number of shares I may redeem?
A:
Yes. A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the shares of Class A common stock included in the units sold in our IPO. We have no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Industrea Charter, other than the aforementioned 15% threshold, except that in no event will we redeem shares of our Class A common stock in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. Each redemption of public shares by our public stockholders will reduce the amount in our trust account.
In no event is your ability to vote all of your shares (including those shares held by you in excess of 15% of the shares sold in our IPO) for or against our Business Combination restricted.
Q:
Is there a limit on the total number of shares that may be redeemed?
A:
The Industrea Charter provides that we may not redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (such that we are not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules). Other than this limitation, the Industrea Charter does not provide a specified maximum redemption threshold. In addition, as a result of the PIPE Financing, we will have in excess of  $5,000,001 in net tangible assets even if all public shareholders exercise their redemption rights. As such, there is no effective limitation on the number of shares that may be redeemed in order to close the Business Combination.
Q:
Will how I vote affect my ability to exercise redemption rights?
A:
No. You may exercise your redemption rights whether you vote your shares of Industrea common stock for or against, or whether you abstain from voting on the Business Combination Proposal or any other proposal described by this proxy statement/prospectus. As a result, the Merger Agreement can be approved by stockholders who will redeem their shares and no longer remain stockholders, leaving stockholders who choose not to redeem their shares holding shares in a company with a potentially less-liquid trading market, fewer stockholders, potentially less cash and the potential inability to meet the listing standards of Nasdaq.
Q:
How do I exercise my redemption rights?
A:
In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must (i)(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and (ii) prior to [    ], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018, (a) submit a written request to the Transfer Agent that
21

Industrea redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the Transfer Agent, physically or electronically through DTC. Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing.
The Transfer Agent’s address is as follows:
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
1 State Street, 30th Floor
New York, New York 10004
Attention: Mark Zimkind
Email: mzimkind@continentalstock.com
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of the public shares, together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 15% of the public shares, which we refer to as the “15% threshold.” Accordingly, all public shares in excess of the 15% threshold beneficially owned by a public stockholder or group will not be redeemed for cash.
Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent and time to effect delivery. It is our understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent. However, we do not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Stockholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their bank, broker or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically.
Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name” are required to either tender their certificates to our Transfer Agent prior to the date set forth in these proxy materials, or up to two business days prior to the vote on the proposal to approve the Business Combination at the Special Meeting, or to deliver their shares to the Transfer Agent electronically using DTC’s Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian (DWAC) system, at such stockholder’s option. The requirement for physical or electronic delivery prior to the Special Meeting ensures that a redeeming stockholder’s election to redeem is irrevocable once the Business Combination is approved.
There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge a tendering broker a fee and it is in the broker’s discretion whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming stockholder. However, this fee would be incurred regardless of whether or not we require stockholders seeking to exercise redemption rights to tender their shares, as the need to deliver shares is a requirement to exercising redemption rights, regardless of the timing of when such delivery must be effectuated.
Q:
What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?
A:
Whether the redemption is subject to U.S. federal income tax depends on the particular facts and circumstances. Please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations.” We urge you to consult your tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of exercising your redemption rights.
Q:
What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences as a result of the Business Combination?
A:
It is anticipated that the Industrea Merger will constitute a tax-deferred transaction pursuant to Section 351 of the Code, and that holders of our Class A common stock generally will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the exchange of their Class A common stock for Newco common stock. You are strongly urged to consult with a tax advisor to determine the particular U.S. federal, state or local or foreign income or other tax consequences of the Business Combination to you. See the section entitled “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations.”
22

Q:
If I am an Industrea warrant holder, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my public warrants?
A:
No. The holders of our public warrants have no redemption rights with respect to our public warrants.
Q:
Do I have appraisal rights if I object to the proposed Business Combination?
A:
No. Appraisal rights are not available to holders of the Industrea common stock in connection with the Business Combination.
Q:
What happens to the funds held in the trust account upon consummation of the Business Combination?
A:
If the Business Combination is consummated, the funds held in the trust account will be used to: (i) pay the Merger Consideration; (ii) pay our stockholders who properly exercise their redemption rights; (iii) pay $8,050,000 in deferred underwriting commissions to the underwriters of our IPO, in connection with the Business Combination; and (iv) pay certain other fees, costs and expenses (including regulatory fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printer fees and other professional fees) that were incurred by Industrea and other parties to the Merger Agreement in connection with the business combination.
Q:
What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated?
A:
There are certain circumstances under which the Merger Agreement may be terminated. Please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Merger Agreement” for information regarding the parties’ specific termination rights.
If we do not consummate the Business Combination, we may continue to try to complete an initial business combination with a different target business until August 1, 2019. If we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, then we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem our public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to Industrea to pay its franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish our public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law; and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and the Industrea Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including trust account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per unit in the IPO. Please see the section entitled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Industrea and the Business Combination.”
Holders of our Founder Shares have waived any right to any liquidation distribution with respect to such shares. In addition, if we fail to complete a business combination by August 1, 2019, there will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our outstanding warrants, which will expire worthless.
Q:
When is the Business Combination expected to be completed?
A:
The Closing is expected to take place as soon as practicable following the Special Meeting, but in any event no later than the date that is two (2) business days following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described below in the subsection entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.” The Closing is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2018. The Merger Agreement may be terminated by Industrea or CPH if the Closing has not occurred by the date that is 180 days after the execution of the Merger Agreement.
For a description of the conditions to the completion of the Business Combination, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.”
23

Q:
What do I need to do now?
A:
You are urged to read carefully and consider the information contained in this proxy statement/​prospectus, including the Annexes, and to consider how the Business Combination will affect you as a stockholder. You should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement/prospectus and on the enclosed proxy card or, if you hold your shares through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, on the voting instruction form provided by the broker, bank or nominee.
Q:
How do I vote?
A:
If you were a holder of record of Industrea common stock on [           ], 2018, the record date for the Special Meeting, you may vote with respect to the proposals in person at the Special Meeting, or by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided.
Voting by Mail.   By signing the proxy card and returning it in the enclosed prepaid and addressed envelope, you are authorizing the individuals named on the proxy card to vote your shares at the Special Meeting in the manner you indicate. We encourage you to sign and return the proxy card even if you plan to attend the Special Meeting so that your shares will be voted if you are unable to attend the Special Meeting. If you receive more than one proxy card, it is an indication that your shares are held in multiple accounts. Please sign and return all proxy cards to ensure that all of your shares are voted. Votes submitted by mail must be received by [9:00 a.m.], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018.
Voting in Person at the Meeting.   If you attend the Special Meeting and plan to vote in person, we will provide you with a ballot at the Special Meeting. If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the stockholder of record and you have the right to vote in person at the Special Meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person, you will need to bring to the Special Meeting a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee authorizing you to vote these shares. For additional information, please see the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders.”
Q:
What will happen if I abstain from voting or fail to vote at the Special Meeting?
A:
At the Special Meeting, we will count a properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” with respect to a particular proposal as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. For purposes of approval, assuming a valid quorum is otherwise established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals but will have no effect on the outcome of any of the other proposals.
Q:
What will happen if I sign and return my proxy card without indicating how I wish to vote?
A:
Signed and dated proxies received by us without an indication of how the stockholder intends to vote on a proposal will be voted “FOR” each proposal presented to the stockholders. The proxyholders may use their discretion to vote on any other matters which properly come before the Special Meeting.
Q:
If I am not going to attend the Special Meeting in person, should I return my proxy card instead?
A:
Yes. Whether you plan to attend the Special Meeting or not, please read the proxy statement/​prospectus carefully, and vote your shares by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided.
24

Q:
If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?
A:
No. Under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank, or nominee. We believe each of the proposals presented to the stockholders at this Special Meeting will be considered non-discretionary and, therefore, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares without your instruction on any of the proposals presented at the Special Meeting. If you do not provide instructions with your proxy, your broker, bank, or other nominee may deliver a proxy card expressly indicating that it is NOT voting your shares; this indication that a broker, bank, or nominee is not voting your shares is referred to as a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes will not be counted for the purposes of determining the existence of a quorum or for purposes of determining the number of votes cast at the Special Meeting. Your bank, broker, or other nominee can vote your shares only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares in accordance with directions you provide.
Q:
May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card?
A:
Yes. You may change your vote by sending a later-dated, signed proxy card to our Secretary at the address listed below so that it is received by our Secretary prior to the Special Meeting or attend the Special Meeting in person and vote. You also may revoke your proxy by sending a notice of revocation to our Secretary, which must be received by our Secretary prior to the Special Meeting.

Q:
What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

SUMMARY OF THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS
Parties to the Business Combination
Industrea
Industrea is a blank check company incorporated on April 7, 2017 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Industrea was formed to pursue an acquisition of a market leading manufacturing or service company in the industrial sector. Industrea is sponsored by Industrea Alexandria LLC, a portfolio company of, and led by the management team of, Argand. Argand is a New York and San Francisco Bay Area based middle-market buyout firm that targets complex, often contrarian, situations in industrial sectors with a focus on global market leaders with stable cash flows, strong sustainable competitive advantages and a clear path to growth. Argand was formed by former senior partners of Castle Harlan Inc. and affiliates (“Castle Harlan”), an industrial focused middle-market private equity firm targeting investments in North America, Europe and Asia through its partnership with CHAMP Private Equity. A distinguishing feature of Argand’s investment strategy is its targeting of complex situations involving corporate carve-outs of noncore divisions, industries that are in transition, middle-market companies grappling with the opportunities and difficulties of global operations, good companies with overleveraged balance sheets and family owned businesses transitioning to professional management. The operational, organizational and strategic improvements that Argand seeks to make to these complex situations can unlock growth in earnings and other overlooked sources of value.
Industrea’s common stock, units and warrants are traded on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “INDU”, “INDUU” and “INDUW,” respectively.
The mailing address of Industrea’s principal executive office is 28 West 44th Street, Suite 501, New York, New York 10036. After the Business Combination, its principal executive office will be that of CPH.
CPH
CPH is a leading provider of concrete pumping services and concrete waste management services in the highly fragmented U.S. and U.K. markets based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brands in both markets (Brundage-Bone and Camfaud, respectively). Concrete pumping is a highly specialized method of concrete placement that requires highly-skilled operators to position a truck-mounted fully-articulating boom for precise delivery of ready-mix concrete from mixer trucks to placing crews on a job site. CPH’s large fleet of specialized pumping equipment and highly-trained operators position CPH to deliver concrete placement solutions that facilitate substantial labor cost savings to customers, shorten concrete placement times, enhance worksite safety and improve construction quality. CPH is also the leading provider of concrete waste management services in the U.S. market based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brand, Eco-Pan. Highly complementary to its core concrete pumping service, Eco-Pan provides a full-service, cost-effective, regulatory-compliant solution to manage environmental issues caused by concrete washout. As of April 30, 2018, CPH provides concrete pumping services in the United States from a diversified footprint of 80 locations across 22 states and operates under the brand Brundage-Bone, provides concrete pumping services in the United Kingdom from 28 locations and operates under the brand Camfaud, and provides route-based concrete waste management service from 13 locations in the United States under the brand Eco-Pan. CPH’s fleet is operated by approximately 662 experienced employees as of April 30, 2018, each of whom is required to complete rigorous training and safety programs. As of April 30, 2018, CPH’s fleet of 936 total pieces of equipment consisted of 616 boom pumps, ranging in size from 17 to 65 meters, 57 placing booms, 15 telebelts and 248 stationary pumps and other specialized concrete placing equipment.
Brundage-Bone was founded in 1983 by Jack Brundage and Dale Bone in Denver, Colorado. The co-founders, who set out to build the leading concrete pumping services company in the United States, entered the Dallas market in 1984 and subsequently executed CPH’s first strategic acquisition in Seattle in 1986. Since its founding, CPH has completed more than 45 acquisitions expanding throughout the
27

United States, and in November 2016, entered the United Kingdom market through the acquisitions of Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and Premier Concrete Pumping Limited. Today, CPH is the number one player in every region it serves and is approximately four times larger than the next competitor in the United States and approximately ten times larger than the next competitor in the U.K. Founded in 1999 and merged into CPH in 2014, Eco-Pan is a leading provider of concrete waste management services in the U.S. market based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brand.
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017, CPH generated revenues of  $211.2 million and net income of  $0.9 million. For the same period, Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue was $236.6 million, Pro Forma Net Income was $6.2 million and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA was $78.5 million. These pro forma financial results give effect to the acquisition of CPH’s Camfaud segment in November 2016. For additional information on Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.”

PGP Investors
PGP Investors has been designated by the parties to the Merger Agreement as the Holder Representative acting on behalf of the holders of CPH capital stock and CPH options.
The mailing address of the principal executive office of PGP Investors is 10250 Constellation Boulevard, Suite 2230, Los Angeles, CA 90067.
The Business Combination Proposal
On September 7, 2018, Industrea, Newco, CPH, certain subsidiaries of Newco, and PGP Investors, LLC, solely in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative, entered into the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which (a) a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into CPH, with CPH surviving the merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco, and (b) a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into Industrea, with Industrea surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. As a result of the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock will be exchanged for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea common stock will be exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants. For more information about the Business Combination, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal.” A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.
Consideration in the Business Combination
Under the Merger Agreement, (i) pursuant to the CPH Merger, Newco will indirectly acquire CPH for aggregate consideration of  $610 million (subject to certain customary adjustments), payable in cash after taking into account (x) any shares of CPH capital stock that are contributed to Newco in exchange for shares of Newco common stock (valued at $10.20 per share) prior to the consummation of the CPH Merger and (y) any CPH options that are converted into Newco options, and (ii) pursuant to the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock will be exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Newco common stock, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea common stock will be exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants. The merger consideration payable in cash in the CPH Merger is expected to be between $446.9 million and $550.0 million, depending on the number of public shares that are redeemed in connection with the closing of the Business Combination.
For more information about the consideration to be paid to the CPH stockholders, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal.”

U.K. Rollover
Pursuant to the U.K. Share Purchase Agreement, Lux II has agreed to acquire from the U.K. Rollover Investors all of the outstanding indebtedness owed by Camfaud to the U.K. Rollover Investors as well as all outstanding B ordinary shares of £0.02 each in Camfaud held by the U.K. Rollover Investors, in each case for consideration consisting of cash and/or unsecured loan notes issued to the U.K. Rollover Investors by Lux II, which unsecured loan notes will be exchanged pursuant to the terms of certain put and call options in the form attached to the U.K. Share Purchase Agreement by certain subsidiaries of CPH and Concrete Parent and purchased in full at the closing of the Business Combination by Newco in exchange for shares of Newco common stock at a deemed price per share of  $10.20.

In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Newco and Industrea have entered into (i) a subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor, pursuant to which (x) the Lead Common Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination an aggregate of 1,715,686 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $17.5 million and (y) Industrea has agreed to issue an aggregate of 190,632 additional shares of Industrea common stock to the Lead Common Investor as consideration for the Lead Common Investor’s obligation to purchase Industrea common stock under such agreement (and the Sponsor will also forfeit an equal number of Founder Shares); and (ii) a subscription agreement with Nuveen, pursuant to which Nuveen has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination an aggregate of 2,450,980 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $25.0 million.
Debt Financing
In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Concrete Merger Sub, a wholly owned indirect
30

subsidiary of Newco that will merge with and into CPH in the CPH Merger, will obtain third-party debt financing consisting of  (i) a senior secured term loan facility, consisting of a term loan B facility in an aggregate principal amount equal to $350.0 million; and (ii) a senior secured asset-based loan revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of  $60.0 million; provided, however, that only a portion of ABL Facility funds may be utilized on the Closing Date to pay the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith.
On September 7, 2018, Concrete Merger Sub executed (i) the Term Commitment Letter from CS AG to provide the Term Loan Facility, and (ii) the ABL Commitment Letter from Wells Fargo to provide the ABL Facility, subject to the conditions set forth in each Debt Commitment Letter.
The commitments of the CS AG and Wells Fargo with respect to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, and each Debt Commitment Party’s agreements to perform the services described in the Debt Commitment Letters, will automatically terminate at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the first to occur of  (i) the date of the termination of the arrangement agreement by Concrete Merger Sub or with Concrete Merger Sub’s written consent prior to closing of the Business Combination, (ii) the date of closing of the Business Combination without the use of proceeds from the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or (iii) March 13, 2019.
The documentation governing the Debt Financing has not been finalized and, accordingly, the actual terms of the Debt Financing may differ from those described herein. Although the Debt Financing described in this document is not subject to a due diligence or “market out”, such financing may not be considered assured. The obligation of the arrangers to provide the Debt Financing under the Debt Commitment Letters is subject to a number of conditions. There is a risk that these conditions will not be satisfied and the Debt Financing may not be funded when required. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no alternative financing arrangements or alternative financing plans have been made in the event the Debt Financing is not available.
Stockholders Agreement
In connection with the Business Combination, Newco, the Initial Stockholders, the Argand Investor and certain CPH stockholders, are expected to enter into the Stockholders Agreement. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement:

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the Founder Shares until the earlier of  (A) one year after the Closing or (B) subsequent to the Closing, (x) if the last sale price of the Newco common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing or (y) following the Closing, the date on which Newco completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Newco’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Newco common stock for cash, securities or other property;

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the private placement warrants until 30 days after the Closing;

each CPH Management Holder (as defined therein) has agreed not to transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such CPH Management Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is (a) the first anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; (b) the second anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; and (c) the third anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing;
31


each Non-Management CPH Holder (as defined therein) may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such Non-Management CPH Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing; and

The Argand Investor may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by the Argand Investor in exchange for the Industrea common stock issued to it pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on (a) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement does not exceed the Peninsula Threshold (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing, or (b) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement exceeds the Peninsula Threshold, the date that is one year after the Closing.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; and (iii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, Peninsula’s nomination right in respect of such threshold will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
The Stockholders Agreement also provides that Newco will, not later than 90 days after the Closing, file a registration statement covering the Founder Shares, the private placement warrants (including any common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of any such private placement warrants) and the shares of Newco common stock issued to the CPH stockholders at the Closing. In addition, these stockholders will have certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights following the consummation of the Business Combination. Newco will bear certain expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of such rights.
Backstop
Under the Merger Agreement and related agreements, redemptions of public shares in connection with the Business Combination, if any, will be offset in the following manner: (i) the first $106.5 million of redemptions will be offset using proceeds from the Debt Financing and the PIPE Financing; (ii) the next $25.0 million of redemptions will be offset by the sale to the Argand Investor of Industrea common stock at $10.20 per share under the Argand Subscription Agreement; and (iii) any remaining redemptions will be offset by the contribution by Peninsula of additional shares of CPH capital stock to Newco in exchange for additional shares of Newco common stock, in which case the Sponsor will also forfeit to Industrea for cancellation a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares of Industrea common stock issued to Peninsula under this clause (iii) (such that the net dilutive effect of such sale is equivalent to a sale price of  $10.20 per share), plus 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor.
Expense Reimbursement Letter
As a condition to each of CPH’s and Peninsula’s execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement and a Rollover Agreement, respectively, the Argand Investor has agreed, pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Letter, to reimburse CPH for up to $3,000,000 of documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses that are payable to third party service providers engaged by CPH or its subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and Peninsula’s Rollover Agreement and the preparation and negotiation of the Merger Agreement if the Merger Agreement is terminated by CPH pursuant to the termination provisions of the Merger Agreement relating to (i) uncured breaches of any
32

representation, warranty, covenants or agreements or failure to consummate the Business Combination by the Industrea Parties, (ii) the Industrea Board’s failure to recommend approval of the Business Combination or Nasdaq Proposal to Industrea’s stockholders or effecting a change in such recommendation, or (iii) failure to obtain approval of the Business Combination Proposal or the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting.
Pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Letter, at the Rollover Closing (as defined in Peninsula’s Rollover Agreement), the Sponsor has agreed to surrender and Industrea will cancel for no consideration, a number of Founder Shares (or at the Sponsor’s option, shares of Class A common stock) equal to ten percent (10%) of the aggregate number of shares of Newco common stock issued to Peninsula, if any, pursuant to Peninsula’s agreement to offset Redemptions pursuant to its Rollover Agreement.
In addition, in the event Peninsula is required to fund any amount to offset Redemptions in accordance with its Rollover Agreement, the Sponsor has agreed to waive the conversion adjustment set forth in the Industrea Charter with respect to the Founder Shares such that all Founder Shares will be convertible into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. In the event Peninsula is not required to fund any amount to offset Redemptions in accordance with its Rollover Agreement, the conversion adjustment set forth in the Industrea Charter will be limited such that the maximum total number of additional shares of Class A common stock that the holders of the Founder Shares receive as a result of any conversion of the Founder Shares into shares of Class A common stock in excess of the total number of shares of Class A common stock that the holders of Founder Shares would receive as a result of a conversion of the Founder Shares on a one-for-one basis will be the sum of  (i) 1,523,965 plus (ii) 25% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock purchased by the Argand Investor pursuant to its obligation to offset up to $25.0 million of Redemptions under the Argand Subscription Agreement.

[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-flow3.jpg]
Redemption Rights
Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, we are providing our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem, upon the closing of the Business Combination, public shares then held by them for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission totaling $8,050,000 that we will pay to the underwriters of our IPO or transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2018, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.30.
You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
(i)(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and
(ii) prior to [    ], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018, (a) submit a written request to the Transfer Agent that Industrea redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.
Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing.
35

A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the shares of Class A common stock included in the units sold in our IPO. We have no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Industrea Charter, other than the aforementioned 15% threshold, except that in no event will we redeem shares of our Class A common stock in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. Each redemption of public shares by our public stockholders will reduce the amount in our trust account. Holders of our outstanding public warrants do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination. Unless otherwise specified, the information in this proxy statement/prospectus assumes that none of our public stockholders exercise their redemption rights with respect to their public shares.
If a holder exercises its redemption rights, then such holder will be exchanging its public shares for cash and will no longer own shares of the post-combination company. Such a holder will be entitled to receive cash for its public shares only if it properly demands redemption and delivers its shares (either physically or electronically) to our Transfer Agent in accordance with the procedures described herein. Please see the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your shares for cash.
Impact of the Business Combination on the Public Float
It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, assuming no public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, taking into account (a) the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis and (b) all “in-the-money” options that will be issued at the closing of the Business Combination to certain current and former members of CPH Management:

our public stockholders will own approximately 52%;

our Initial Stockholders and the Argand Investor will own approximately 25%;

CPH Management will own approximately 9% (based on the most recent estimated Rollover amounts for members of CPH Management, which may increase at Closing in accordance with the Rollover Agreements);

Nuveen will own approximately 6%;

the Lead Common Investor will own approximately 4%;

Peninsula will own approximately 2%; and

the former CPH employee shareholders will own approximately 2% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock.
The ownership percentages set forth above do not take into account (a) public warrants and private placement warrants that will remain outstanding immediately following the Business Combination and may be exercised thereafter (commencing 30 days after the closing of the Business Combination) or (b) the issuance of any shares upon completion of the Business Combination under the Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C, but does include Founder Shares. Prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, the outstanding Founder Shares are expected to convert into Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter, subject to the limitations (i) set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter and (ii) that, in the event that there are no redemptions by public stockholders, the Sponsor has agreed that the conversion ratio for the Founder Shares shall be no greater than 1:1.0331, such that the number of Class A shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Founder Shares in such case would be 5,940,632 Class A shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). Under the Expense Reimbursement Letter, if Peninsula is not required to offset Redemptions under its Rollover Agreement, then to the extent that the Argand Investor’s $25 million backstop obligation is utilized, the Sponsor will be entitled to receive up to an additional 2,136,710 shares of Class A common stock upon conversion of the Founder Shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). If Peninsula is required to offset any Redemptions, then the Founder Shares will
36

convert on a one-for-one basis and the Sponsor will be required to forfeit a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares issued to Peninsula in connection with its agreement to offset Redemptions, plus 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor. As a result, after giving effect to all forfeitures, Industrea expects to issue between 4,436,275 and 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the conversion of the Founder Shares. If the actual facts are different than the assumptions set forth above, the percentage ownership numbers set forth above will be different. In particular, if public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, additional shares could be issued to the Argand Investor and Peninsula pursuant to the Backstop and to the Sponsor pursuant to the conversion of Founder Shares (subject to the limitations set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter).
For more information, please see the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”
Board of Directors of Newco Following the Business Combination
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Newco Board is expected to consist of nine directors divided into three classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to Newco’s first annual meeting of stockholders) serving a three-year term. If each director nominee is elected at the Special Meeting, Heather L. Faust, David G. Hall and Iain Humphries will be Class I directors serving until the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, Brian Hodges, John M. Piecuch and Howard D. Morgan will be Class II directors serving until the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, and David A.B. Brown, Tariq Osman and Bruce Young will be Class III directors serving until the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, or in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier resignation, removal or death. Industrea believes it is in the best interests of its stockholders to allow stockholders to vote upon the election of newly appointed directors.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; and (iii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, Peninsula’s nomination right in respect of such threshold will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
Please see the section entitled “The Director Election Proposal” for additional information.
The Charter Proposals
The Charter Proposals, if approved, will approve the following material differences between the Newco Charter that will be in effect upon the closing of the Business Combination and the Industrea Charter:

the name of the new public company will be “Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc.” as opposed to “Industrea Acquisition Corp.”;

Newco will have 500,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, as opposed to Industrea having 220,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock; and

Newco Charter will not include the various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies that the Industrea Charter contains.
37

This vote, however, will not actually result in stockholders of Industrea approving the Newco Charter or amendments to the Industrea Charter but instead will simply approve the aforementioned material differences in the two sets of documents. Please see the section entitled “The Charter Proposals.”
Other Proposals
In addition, at the Special Meeting, Industrea’s stockholders will be asked to vote on:
1.
A proposal to approve, for purposes of complying with applicable Nasdaq listing rules, the issuance of more than 20% of Industrea’s issued and outstanding common stock pursuant to the Business Combination;
2.
A proposal to elect nine directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of Newco;
3.
A proposal to approve the Incentive Plan, which is an incentive compensation plan for employees, directors and consultants of Newco and its subsidiaries, including CPH, a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C; and
4.
A proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal. This proposal will only be presented at the Special Meeting if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal.
Date, Time and Place of Special Meeting
The Special Meeting will be held on [           ], 2018, at [  ] a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Winston & Strawn LLP, located at 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166, or at such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned or postponed, to consider and vote upon the proposals.
Voting Power; Record Date
Only Industrea stockholders of record at the close of business on [           ], 2018, the record date for the Special Meeting, will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. You are entitled to one vote for each share of Industrea common stock that you owned as of the close of business on the record date. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the record date, there were 28,750,000 shares of Industrea common stock outstanding and entitled to vote, of which 23,000,000 are shares of Class A common stock and 5,750,000 are Founder Shares held by our Initial Stockholders.
Tax Considerations
It is anticipated that the Industrea Merger will constitute a tax-deferred transaction pursuant to Section 351 of the Code, and that holders of our Class A common stock generally will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the exchange of their Class A common stock for Newco common stock. You are strongly urged to consult with a tax advisor to determine the particular U.S. federal, state or local or foreign income or other tax consequences of the Business Combination to you. See the section entitled “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations.”
Accounting Treatment
The Business Combination will be accounted for by applying the acquisition method, which requires the determination of the accounting acquirer, the acquisition date, the fair value of the purchase consideration to be transferred, the fair value of assets and liabilities of the acquiree and the measurement of goodwill.
38

ASC Topic 805-10, “Business Combinations — Overall” (“ASC 805-10”) provides that in identifying the acquiring entity in a business combination effected primarily through an exchange of equity interests, the acquirer is usually the entity that issues equity interests but all pertinent facts and circumstances must be considered in determining the acquirer. Other pertinent facts and circumstances to consider include the relative voting rights of the shareholders of the constituent companies in the combined entity, the composition of the board of directors and senior management of the combined company, the relative size of each company and the terms of the exchange of equity interests in the Business Combination, including payment of any premium.
Although Newco will issue equity interests in the Business Combination, since it is a new entity formed solely to issue these equity interests to effect the Business Combination, it would not be considered the acquirer and one of the combining entities that existed before the Business Combination must be identified as the acquirer.
Industrea will be considered the accounting acquirer and CPH will be considered the accounting acquiree since Industrea is considered to be a substantive entity. The ultimate determination of the accounting acquirer is a qualitative and quantitative assessment that requires careful consideration, of which the final determination will occur after the consummation of the Business Combination. Under the acquisition method of accounting, Industrea will allocate the purchase price of this acquisition to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated acquisition-date fair values. These estimates will be determined through established and generally accepted valuation techniques. Business Combination costs will be expensed as incurred.
Appraisal Rights
Appraisal rights are not available to Industrea stockholders in connection with the Business Combination.
Proxy Solicitation
Proxies may be solicited by mail. Industrea has engaged Morrow to assist in the solicitation of proxies.
If a stockholder grants a proxy, it may still vote its shares in person if it revokes its proxy before the Special Meeting. A stockholder may also change its vote by submitting a later-dated proxy, as described in the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders — Revoking Your Proxy.”
Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination
In considering the recommendation of the Industrea Board to vote in favor of the Business Combination, stockholders should be aware that our Sponsor and certain members of the Industrea Board and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other stockholders generally. The Industrea Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination, and in recommending to stockholders that they approve the Business Combination. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination.
These interests include, among other things:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain circumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 7, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;
39


the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;

the right of our Initial Stockholders to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Initial Stockholders upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.
The Industrea Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination
After careful consideration, the Industrea Board recommends that Industrea stockholders vote “FOR” each proposal and “FOR” each of the director nominees being submitted to a vote of Industrea stockholders at the Special Meeting.
The Industrea Board considered a wide variety of factors in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination. For a more complete description of the Industrea Board’s reasons for the approval of the Business Combination and the recommendation of the Industrea Board, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Industrea Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

Regulatory Matters
Under the HSR Act and the rules that have been promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), certain transactions may not be consummated unless information has been furnished to the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (“Antitrust Division”) and the FTC and certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied. The Business Combination is subject to these requirements and may not be completed until the expiration of a 30-day waiting period following the filing of the required Notification and Report Forms with the Antitrust Division and the FTC or until early termination is granted. On or about September 10, 2018, Industrea filed the required forms under the HSR Act with the Antitrust Division and the FTC.
At any time before or after consummation of the Business Combination, notwithstanding termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act, the applicable competition authorities could take such action under applicable antitrust laws as each deems necessary or desirable in the public interest, including seeking to enjoin the consummation of the Business Combination. Private parties may also seek to take legal action under the antitrust laws under certain circumstances. We cannot assure you that the Antitrust Division, the FTC, any state attorney general, or any other government authority will not attempt to challenge the Business Combination on antitrust grounds, and, if such a challenge is made, we cannot assure you as to its result. Neither Industrea nor CPH is aware of any material regulatory approvals or actions that are required for completion of the Business Combination other than the expiration or early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. It is presently contemplated that if any such additional regulatory approvals or actions are required, those approvals or actions will be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.
42

Quorum and Required Vote for Proposals for the Special Meeting
A quorum of Industrea stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the Special Meeting if a majority of the Industrea common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting is represented in person or by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.
Approval of the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock. A stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals. Our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the Business Combination Proposal.
Approval of the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting. If a valid quorum is otherwise established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.
The election of directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. This means that the nine director nominees will be elected if they receive more affirmative votes than any other nominee for the same position. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors. Assuming a valid quorum is established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have no effect on the election of directors.
The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the proposals other than the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, other than the Adjournment Proposal, which is not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. It is important for you to note that in the event that the Business Combination Proposal or the Nasdaq Proposal does not receive the requisite vote for approval, we will not consummate the Business Combination. If we do not consummate the Business Combination and fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to our public stockholders.
Independent Director Oversight
The Industrea Board is comprised of a majority of independent directors who are not affiliated with our Sponsor and its affiliates. In connection with the Business Combination, our independent directors, David A.B. Brown, Thomas K. Armstrong, Jr., David G. Hall, Brian Hodges and Gerard F. Rooney, took an active role in evaluating the proposed terms of the Business Combination. As part of their evaluation of the Business Combination, our independent directors were aware of the potential conflicts of interest with our Sponsor and its affiliates that could arise with regard to the proposed terms of the Merger Agreement. Our independent directors reviewed and considered these interests during the negotiation of the Business Combination and in evaluating and unanimously approving, as members of Industrea Board, the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination.
43

Recommendation to Industrea Stockholders
The Industrea Board believes that each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal to be presented at the Special Meeting is in the best interests of Industrea and our stockholders and unanimously recommends that its stockholders vote “FOR” each of the proposals.
When you consider the recommendation of the Industrea Board in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal, you should keep in mind that our Sponsor and certain members of the Industrea Board and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from or in addition to (or which may conflict with) your interests as a stockholder. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain circumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 7, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;

the right of our Initial Stockholders to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Initial Stockholders upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.
44

Risk Factors
In evaluating the Business Combination and the proposals to be considered and voted on at the Special Meeting, you should carefully review and consider the risk factors set forth under the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 51 of this proxy statement/prospectus. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in that section, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on (i) the ability of Industrea and CPH to complete the Business Combination, and (ii) the business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of the post-combination company following consummation of the Business Combination.

SELECTED UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the Business Combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The Business Combination will be accounted for as an acquisition of CPH (the accounting acquiree) by Industrea (the accounting acquirer) since Industrea is considered to be a substantive entity. Additionally, immediately following completion of the transaction, the stockholders of Industrea immediately prior to the Business Combination will have effective control of Newco, the post-combination company, through their approximate 52% ownership interest in the combined entity, assuming no share redemptions (36% in the event of maximum share redemptions), and their ability to elect a majority of the board of directors.
The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Business Combination and the proposed related financing transactions, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the post-combination company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet is based on the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet of CPH and the unaudited condensed balance sheet of Industrea, in each case as of June 30, 2018, and has been prepared to reflect the Business Combination and the proposed related financing transactions as if they occurred on June 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 combines the historical results of operations of CPH for those periods and for Industrea for the periods described below, giving effect to the Business Combination and the proposed related financing transactions as if they occurred on January 1, 2017.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations information for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was derived from CPH’s unaudited consolidated statement of income for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and Industrea’s unaudited condensed statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Such unaudited interim financial information has been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements of CPH and Industrea, respectively, each of which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations information for the year ended December 31, 2017 was derived from CPH’s audited consolidated statement of income for the year ended October 31, 2017 and Industrea’s audited statement of operations for the period from April 7, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017 included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are for informational purposes only. They do not purport to indicate the results that would actually have been obtained had the Business Combination and the proposed related financing transactions been completed on the assumed date or for the periods presented, or which may be realized in the future. The pro forma adjustments are based on the information currently available and the assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information below should be read in conjunction with the sections entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” “CPH Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Industrea’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the historical financial statements and notes thereto of CPH and Industrea included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared using two different levels of redemptions of public shares:

Assuming No Redemption:   This presentation assumes that public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their public shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account; and

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully review and consider the following risk factors and the other information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, including the financial statements and notes to the financial statements included herein, in evaluating the Business Combination and the proposals to be voted on at the Special Meeting. The following risk factors apply to the business and operations of CPH and its consolidated subsidiaries and will also apply to the business and operations of the post-combination company following the completion of the Business Combination. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may adversely affect the ability to complete or realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, and may have a material adverse effect on the business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of the post-combination company. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included in this proxy statement/prospectus, including matters addressed in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” We may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, which may also impair our business or financial condition. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to the financial statements included herein.
Risks Related to Newco’s Business and Operations Following the Business Combination with CPH
CPH’s business is cyclical in nature and a slowdown in the economic recovery or a decrease in general economic activity could have material adverse effects on CPH’s revenues and operating results.
Substantially all of CPH’s customer base comes from the commercial, infrastructure and residential construction markets. A worsening of economic conditions or a decrease in available capital for investments could cause weakness in CPH’s end markets, cause declines in construction and industrial activity, and adversely affect CPH’s revenue and operating results.
The following factors, among others, may cause weakness in CPH’s end markets, either temporarily or long-term:

the depth and duration of an economic downturn and lack of availability of credit;

uncertainty regarding global, regional or sovereign economic conditions;

reductions in corporate spending for plants and facilities or government spending for infrastructure projects;

the cyclical nature of CPH’s customers’ businesses, particularly those operating in the commercial, infrastructure and residential construction sectors;

an increase in the cost of construction materials;

a decrease in investment in certain of CPH’s key geographic markets;

an increase in interest rates;

an overcapacity in the businesses that drive the need for construction;

adverse weather conditions, which may temporarily affect a particular region or regions;

reduced construction activity in CPH’s end markets;

terrorism or hostilities involving the United States or the United Kingdom; change in structural construction designs of buildings (e.g., wood versus concrete); and

oversupply of equipment or new entrants into the market causing pricing pressure.
A downturn in any of CPH’s end markets in one or more of CPH’s geographic markets caused by these or other factors could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial conditions, results of operations and cash flows.
51

CPH’s business is seasonal and subject to adverse weather.
Since CPH’s business is primarily conducted outdoors, erratic weather patterns, seasonal changes and other weather related conditions affect CPH’s business. Adverse weather conditions, including hurricanes and tropical storms, cold weather, snow, and heavy or sustained rainfall, reduce construction activity, restrict the demand for CPH’s products and services, and impede CPH’s ability to deliver and pump concrete efficiently or at all. In addition, severe drought conditions can restrict available water supplies and restrict production. Consequently, these events could adversely affect CPH’s business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.
CPH’s revenue and operating results have varied historically from period to period and any unexpected periods of decline could result in an overall decline in CPH’s available cash flows.
CPH’s revenue and operating results have varied historically from period to period and may continue to do so. CPH has identified below certain of the factors that may cause CPH’s revenue and operating results to vary:

seasonal weather patterns in the construction industry on which CPH relies, with activity tending to be lowest in the winter and spring;

the timing of expenditure for maintaining existing equipment, new equipment and the disposal of used equipment;

changes in demand for CPH’s services or the prices it charges due to changes in economic conditions, competition or other factors;

changes in the interest rates applicable to CPH’s variable rate debt, and the overall level of CPH’s debt;

fluctuations in fuel costs;

general economic conditions in the markets where CPH operates;

the cyclical nature of CPH’s customers’ businesses;

price changes in response to competitive factors;

other cost fluctuations, such as costs for employee-related compensation and benefits;

labor shortages, work stoppages or other labor difficulties and labor issues in trades on which CPH’s business may be dependent in particular regions;

potential enactment of new legislation affecting CPH’s operations or labor relations;

timing of acquisitions and new branch openings and related costs;

possible unrecorded liabilities of acquired companies and difficulties associated with integrating acquired companies into CPH’s existing operations;

changes in the exchange rate between the United States dollar and Great Britain pound sterling;

potential increased demand from CPH’s customers to develop and provide new technological services in CPH’s business to meet changing customer preferences;

CPH’s ability to control costs and maintain quality;

CPH’s effectiveness in integrating new locations; and

possible write-offs or exceptional charges due to changes in applicable accounting standards, reorganizations or restructurings, obsolete or damaged equipment or the refinancing of CPH’s existing debt.
52

CPH’s business is highly competitive and competition may increase, which could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business.
The concrete pumping industry is highly competitive and fragmented. Many of the markets in which CPH operates are served by several competitors, ranging from larger regional companies to small, independent businesses with a limited fleet and geographic scope of operations. Some of CPH’s principal competitors may have more flexible capital structures or may have greater name recognition in one or more of CPH’s geographic markets than CPH does and may be better able to withstand adverse market conditions within the industry. CPH generally competes on the basis of, among other things, quality and breadth of service, expertise, reliability, price and the size, quality and availability of its fleet of pumping equipment, which is significantly affected by the level of CPH’s capital expenditures. If CPH is required to reduce or delay capital expenditures for any reason, including due to restrictions contained in, or debt service payments required by, the credit facilities to be entered into pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters or otherwise, the ability to replace CPH’s fleet or the age of CPH’s fleet may put it at a disadvantage to its competitors and adversely impact CPH’s ability to generate revenue. In addition, CPH’s industry may be subject to competitive price decreases in the future, particularly during cyclical downturns in CPH’s end markets, which can adversely affect revenue, profitability and cash flow. CPH may encounter increased competition from existing competitors or new market entrants in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
CPH is dependent on its relationships with key suppliers to obtain equipment for CPH’s business.
CPH depends on a small group of key manufacturers of concrete pumping equipment, and have historically relied primarily on three companies, the largest two of which experienced ownership changes in 2012. CPH cannot predict the impact on its suppliers of changes in the economic environment and other developments in their respective businesses, and CPH cannot provide any assurance that its vendors will provide their historically high level of service support and quality. Any deterioration in such service support or quality could result in additional maintenance costs, operational issues, or both. Insolvency, financial difficulties, strategic changes or other factors may result in CPH’s suppliers not being able to fulfill the terms of their agreements with it, whether satisfactorily or at all. Further, such factors may render suppliers unwilling to extend contracts that provide favorable terms to CPH, or may force them to seek to renegotiate existing contracts with CPH. CPH believes the market for supplying equipment used in CPH’s business is increasingly competitive; however, termination of CPH’s relationship with any of CPH’s key suppliers, or interruption of CPH’s access to concrete pumping equipment, pipe or other supplies, could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in the event that CPH is unable to obtain adequate and reliable equipment or supplies from other sources in a timely manner or at all.
If CPH’s average fleet age increases, CPH’s offerings may not be as attractive to potential customers and CPH’s operating costs may increase, impacting CPH’s results of operations.
As CPH’s equipment ages, the cost of maintaining such equipment, if not replaced within a certain period of time or amount of use, will likely increase. CPH estimates that its fleet assets generally will have a useful life of up to 25 years depending on the size of the machine, hours in service, yardage pumped, and, in certain instances, other circumstances unique to an asset. CPH manages its fleet of equipment according to the wear and tear that a specific type of equipment is expected to experience over its useful life. As of April 30, 2018, the average age of CPH’s equipment in the United States and the United Kingdom was approximately 10 years and 8 years, respectively, and it is CPH’s strategy to maintain average fleet age at approximately 10 years. If the average age of CPH’s equipment increases, whether as a result of CPH’s inability to access sufficient capital to maintain or replace equipment in a timely manner or otherwise, CPH’s investment in the maintenance, parts and repair for individual pieces of equipment may exceed the book value or replacement value of that equipment. CPH cannot assure you that costs of maintenance will not materially increase in the future. Any material increase in such costs could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, as CPH’s equipment ages, it may become less attractive to potential customers, thus decreasing CPH’s ability to effectively compete for new business.
53

The costs of new equipment CPH uses in its fleet may increase, requiring it to spend more for replacement equipment or preventing it from procuring equipment on a timely basis.
The cost of new equipment for use in CPH’s concrete pumping fleet could increase due to increased material costs to CPH’s suppliers or other factors beyond CPH’s control. Such increases could materially adversely impact CPH’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in future periods. Furthermore, changes in technology or customer demand could cause certain of CPH’s existing equipment to become obsolete and require it to purchase new equipment at increased costs.
CPH sells used equipment on a regular basis. CPH’s fleet is subject to residual value risk upon disposition, and may not sell at the prices or in the quantities it expects.
CPH continuously evaluates its fleet of equipment as it seeks to optimize its vehicle size and capabilities for its end markets in multiple locations. CPH is therefore seeking to sell used equipment on a regular basis. The market value of any given piece of equipment could be less than its depreciated value at the time it is sold. The market value of used equipment depends on several factors, including:

the market price for comparable new equipment;

wear and tear on the equipment relative to its age and the effectiveness of preventive maintenance;

the time of year that it is sold;

the supply of similar used equipment on the market;

the existence and capacities of different sales outlets;

the age of the equipment, and the amount of usage of such equipment relative to its age, at the time it is sold;

worldwide and domestic demand for used equipment;

the effect of advances and changes in technology in new equipment models;

changing perception of residual value of used equipment by CPH’s suppliers; and

general economic conditions.
CPH includes in income from operations the difference between the sales price and the depreciated value of an item of equipment sold. Changes in CPH’s assumptions regarding depreciation could change CPH’s depreciation expense, as well as the gain or loss realized upon disposal of equipment. Sales of CPH’s used concrete pumping equipment at prices that fall significantly below CPH’s expectations or in lesser quantities than CPH anticipates could have a negative impact on CPH’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
CPH is exposed to liability claims on a continuing basis, which may exceed the level of CPH’s insurance or not be covered at all, and this could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s operating performance.
CPH’s business exposes it to claims for personal injury, death or property damage resulting from the use of the equipment it operates, rents, sells, services or repairs and from injuries caused in motor vehicle or other accidents in which CPH’s personnel are involved. CPH’s business also exposes it to worker compensation claims and other employment-related claims. CPH carries comprehensive insurance, subject to deductibles, at levels it believes are sufficient to cover existing and future claims. Future claims may exceed the level of CPH’s insurance, and CPH’s insurance may not continue to be available on economically reasonable terms, or at all. Certain types of claims, such as claims for punitive damages, are not covered by CPH’s insurance. In addition, CPH is self-insured for the deductibles on its policies and has established reserves for incurred but not reported claims. If actual claims exceed CPH’s reserves, CPH’s results of operation would be adversely affected. Whether or not CPH is covered by insurance, certain claims may generate negative publicity, which may lead to lower revenues, as well as additional similar claims being filed.
54

CPH’s business is subject to significant operating risks and hazards that could result in personal injury or damage or destruction to property, which could result in losses or liabilities to CPH.
Construction sites are potentially dangerous workplaces and often put CPH’s employees and others in close proximity with mechanized equipment and moving vehicles. CPH’s equipment has been involved in workplace incidents and incidents involving mobile operators of CPH’s equipment in transit in the past and may be involved in such incidents in the future.
CPH’s safety record is an important consideration for CPH and for its customers. If serious accidents or fatalities occur, regardless of whether CPH were at fault, or CPH’s safety record were to deteriorate, CPH may be ineligible to bid on certain work, expose itself to possible litigation, and existing service arrangements could be terminated, which could have a material adverse impact on CPH’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. Adverse experience with hazards and claims could have a negative effect on CPH’s reputation with CPH’s existing or potential new customers and CPH’s prospects for future work.
In the commercial concrete infrastructure market, CPH’s workers are subject to the usual hazards associated with providing construction and related services on construction sites, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, hurricanes, adverse weather conditions and flooding. Operating hazards can cause personal injury or death, damage to or destruction of property, plant and equipment, environmental damage, performance delays, monetary losses or legal liability.
Potential acquisitions and expansions into new markets may result in significant transaction expense and expose CPH to risks associated with entering new markets and integrating new or acquired operations.
CPH may encounter risks associated with entering new markets in which it has limited or no experience. New operations require significant capital expenditures and may initially have a negative impact on CPH’s short-term cash flow, net income and results of operations. New start-up locations may not become profitable when projected or ever. In addition, CPH’s industry is highly fragmented and CPH expects to consider acquisition opportunities from time to time when it believes they would enhance CPH’s business and financial performance.
Acquisitions may impose significant strains on CPH Management, operating systems and financial resources, and could experience unanticipated integration issues. The pursuit and integration of acquisitions may require substantial attention from CPH’s senior management, which will limit the amount of time they have available to devote to CPH’s existing operations. CPH’s ability to realize the expected benefits from any future acquisitions depends in large part on CPH’s ability to integrate and consolidate the new operations with CPH’s existing operations in a timely and effective manner. Future acquisitions also could result in the incurrence of substantial amounts of indebtedness and contingent liabilities (including environmental, employee benefits and safety and health liabilities), accumulation of goodwill that may become impaired, and an increase in amortization expenses related to intangible assets. Any significant diversion of management’s attention from CPH’s existing operations, the loss of key employees or customers of any acquired business, any major difficulties encountered in the opening of start-up locations or the integration of acquired operations or any associated increases in indebtedness, liabilities or expenses could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial condition or results of operations, which could decrease CPH’s cash flows.
CPH may not realize the anticipated synergies and cost savings from acquisitions.
CPH has completed a number of acquisitions in recent years that it believes present revenue and cost-saving synergy opportunities. However, the integration of recent or future acquisitions may not result in the realization of the full benefits of the revenue and cost synergies that CPH expected at the time or currently expects within the anticipated time frame or at all. Moreover, CPH may incur substantial expenses or unforeseen liabilities in connection with the integration of acquired businesses. While CPH anticipates that certain expenses will be incurred, such expenses are difficult to estimate accurately and may exceed CPH’s estimates. Accordingly, the expected benefits may be offset by costs or delays incurred in integrating the businesses. Failure of recent or future acquisitions to meet CPH’s expectations and be integrated successfully could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s financial condition and results of operations.
55

CPH has operations throughout the United States and the United Kingdom, which subjects it to multiple federal, state, and local laws and regulations. Moreover, CPH operates at times as a government contractor or subcontractor which subjects it to additional laws, regulations, and contract provisions. Changes in law, regulations, government contract provisions, or other legal requirements, or CPH’s material failure to comply with any of them, can increase CPH’s costs and have other negative impacts on CPH’s business.
CPH’s 80 locations in the United States, including locations operated by Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan, are situated across approximately 22 states and CPH’s 28 locations in the U.K. are in England, Scotland and Wales. Each of CPH’s sites exposes it to a host of different local laws and regulations. These requirements address multiple aspects of CPH’s operations, such as worker safety, consumer rights, privacy, employee benefits, antitrust, emissions regulations and may also impact other areas of CPH’s business, such as pricing. In addition, government contracts and subcontracts are subject to a wide range of requirements not applicable in the purely commercial context, such as extensive auditing and disclosure requirements; anti-money laundering, antibribery and anti-gratuity rules; political campaign contribution and lobbying limitations; and small and/or disadvantaged business preferences. Even when a government contractor has reasonable policies and practices in place to address these risks and requirements, it is still possible for problems to arise. Moreover, government contracts or subcontracts are generally riskier than commercial contracts, because, when problems arise, the adverse consequences can be severe, including civil false claims (which can involve penalties and treble damages), suspension and debarment, and even criminal prosecution. Moreover, the requirements of laws, regulations, and government contract provisions are often different in different jurisdictions. Changes in these requirements, or any material failure by CPH to comply with them, can increase CPH’s costs, negatively affect CPH’s reputation, reduce CPH’s business, require significant management time and attention and generally otherwise impact CPH’s operations in adverse ways.
CPH is subject to numerous environmental and safety regulations. If CPH is required to incur compliance or remediation costs that are not currently anticipated, CPH’s liquidity and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
CPH’s facilities and operations are subject to comprehensive and frequently changing federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and health and safety. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, occupational safety, employee relations, the discharge of substances into the air, water and land, the handling, storage, transport, use and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes and the cleanup of properties affected by pollutants. CPH has in the past and may in the future fail to comply with applicable environmental and safety regulations. If CPH violates environmental or safety laws or regulations, CPH may be required to implement corrective actions and could be subject to civil or criminal fines or penalties or other sanctions. CPH cannot assure you that it will not have to make significant capital or operating expenditures in the future in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations or that it will comply with applicable environmental laws at all times. Such violations or liability could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Environmental laws also impose obligations and liability for the investigation and cleanup of properties affected by hazardous substance or fuel spills or releases. These liabilities are often joint and several, and may be imposed on the parties generating or disposing of such substances or on the owner or operator of affected property, often without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of hazardous substances. CPH may also have liability for past contamination as successors-in-interest for companies which were acquired or where there was a merger. Accordingly, CPH may become liable, either contractually or by operation of law, for investigation, remediation, monitoring and other costs even if the contaminated property is not presently owned or operated by CPH, or if the contamination was caused by third parties during or prior to CPH’s ownership or operation of the property. Contamination and exposure to hazardous substances can also result in claims for damages, including personal injury, property damage, and natural resources damage claims.
Most of CPH’s properties currently have above or below ground storage tanks for fuel and other petroleum products and oil-water separators (or equivalent wastewater collection/treatment systems). Given the nature of CPH’s operations (which involve the use of diesel and other petroleum products, solvents and other hazardous substances) for fueling and maintaining CPH’s equipment and vehicles, and the historical
56

operations at some of CPH’s properties, CPH may incur material costs associated with soil or groundwater contamination. Future events, such as changes in existing laws or policies or their enforcement, or the discovery of currently unknown contamination, may give rise to remediation liabilities or other claims or costs that may be material.
CPH’s business depends on favorable relations with CPH’s employees, and any deterioration of these relations, labor shortages or increases in labor costs could adversely affect CPH’s business, financial condition and results of operations and CPH’s collective bargaining agreements and CPH’s relationship with CPH’s union-represented employees could disrupt CPH’s ability to serve CPH’s customers, lead to higher labor costs or the payment of withdrawal liability in connection with multiemployer plans.
Approximately 12% of CPH’s employees in the United States (but none of CPH’s employees in the United Kingdom) are represented by unions or covered by collective bargaining agreements. The states in which CPH’s employees are represented by unions or covered by collective bargaining agreements are California, Washington and Oregon. There can be no assurance that CPH’s non-unionized employees will not become members of a union or become covered by a collective bargaining agreement, including through an acquisition of a business whose employees are subject to such an agreement. Any significant deterioration in employee relations, shortages of labor or increases in labor costs at any of CPH’s locations could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business, financial condition or results of operations. A slowdown or work stoppage that lasts for a significant period of time could cause lost revenues and increased costs and could adversely affect CPH’s ability to meet CPH’s customers’ needs.
Furthermore, CPH’s labor costs could increase as a result of the settlement of actual or threatened labor disputes. In addition, CPH’s collective bargaining agreement with CPH’s union in California and Oregon expire in 2019 and 2020, respectively and will need to be renegotiated. CPH’s collective bargaining agreement with CPH’s union in Washington expires in 2037; however, wage rates are up for renegotiations in 2018. CPH cannot assure you that renegotiation of these agreements or wage rates (as applicable) will be successful or will not result in adverse economic terms or work stoppages or slowdowns.
Under CPH’s collective bargaining agreements, CPH is, and has previously been, obligated to contribute to several multiemployer pension plans on behalf of CPH’s unionized employees. A multiemployer pension plan is a defined benefit pension plan that provides pension benefits to the union-represented workers of various generally unrelated companies. Under ERISA, an employer that has an obligation to contribute to an underfunded multiemployer plan, as well as any other entities that are treated as a single employer with such employer under applicable tax and ERISA rules, may become jointly and severally liable, generally upon complete or partial withdrawal from a multiemployer plan, for its proportionate share of the plan’s unfunded benefit obligations. These liabilities are known as “withdrawal liabilities.” Certain of the multiemployer plans to which CPH is obligated to contribute have been in the past and currently remain significantly underfunded. Moreover, due to the level of underfunding, at least one of these multiemployer plans has been and continues to be in “critical status,” meaning, among other things, that the trustees of the plan are required to adopt a rehabilitation plan and CPH is required to pay a surcharge on top of CPH’s regular contributions to the plan.
CPH currently has no intention of withdrawing, in either a complete or partial withdrawal, from any of the multiemployer plans to which it currently contributes and CPH has not been assessed any withdrawal liability in the past when it has ceased participating in certain multiemployer plans to which it previously contributed. In addition, CPH believes that the “construction industry” multiemployer plan exception may apply if CPH did withdraw from any of CPH’s current multiemployer plans. The “construction industry” exception generally delays the imposition of withdrawal liability in connection with an employer’s withdrawal from a “construction industry” multiemployer plan unless and until (among other things) that employer continues or resumes covered operations in the relevant geographic region without continuing or resuming (as applicable) contributions to the multiemployer plan. If this exception applies, withdrawal liability may be delayed or even inapplicable if CPH ceases participation in any multiemployer plan(s). However, there can be no assurance that CPH will not withdraw from one or more multiemployer plans in the future, that the “construction industry exception” would apply if CPH did withdraw, or that CPH will not incur withdrawal liability if it does withdraw. Accordingly, CPH may be required to pay material amounts of withdrawal liability if one or more of those plans is underfunded at the time of withdrawal and
57

withdrawal liability applies in connection with CPH’s withdrawal. In addition, CPH may incur material liabilities if any multiemployer plan(s) in which it participates requires it to increase CPH’s contribution levels to alleviate existing underfunding and/or becomes insolvent, terminates or liquidates.
Labor relations matters at construction sites where CPH provides services may result in increases in its operating costs, disruptions in its business and decreases in its earnings.
Labor relations matters at construction sites where CPH provides services may result in work stoppages, which would in turn affect CPH’s ability to provide services at such locations. If any such work stoppages were to occur at work sites where CPH provides services, CPH could experience a significant disruption of its operations, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows. Also, labor relations matters affecting CPH’s suppliers could adversely impact CPH’s business from time to time.
If CPH determines that its goodwill has become impaired, CPH may incur impairment charges, which would negatively impact CPH’s operating results.
At April 30, 2018, CPH had recorded goodwill of  $48.6 million, $6.9 million, $19.8 million and $4.7 million for the acquisitions of Brundage-Bone, Eco-Pan, Camfaud and O’Brien, respectively. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations.
CPH will assess potential impairment of its goodwill at least annually. Impairment may result from significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets, negative industry or economic trends or significant underperformance relative to historical or projected operating results. An impairment of CPH’s goodwill may have a material adverse effect on CPH’s results of operations.
Turnover of members of CPH Management, staff and pump operators and CPH’s ability to attract and retain key personnel may affect CPH’s ability to efficiently manage CPH’s business and execute CPH’s strategy.
CPH’s business depends on the quality of, and CPH’s ability to attract and retain, CPH’s senior management and staff, and competition in CPH’s industry and the business world for top management talent is generally significant. Although CPH believes it generally has competitive pay packages, it can provide no assurance that CPH’s efforts to attract and retain senior management staff will be successful. In addition, the loss of services of certain members of CPH’s senior management could adversely affect CPH’s business until suitable replacements can be found.
CPH depends upon the quality of its staff personnel, including sales and customer service personnel who routinely interact with and fulfill the needs of its customers, and on CPH’s ability to attract and retain and motivate skilled operators and other associated personnel to operate its equipment in order to provide its concrete pumping services to its customers. There is significant competition for qualified personnel in a number of CPH’s markets, including Texas, Colorado, Utah, and Idaho where CPH faces competition from the oil and gas industry for qualified drivers and operators. There is a limited number of persons with the requisite skills to serve in these positions, and such positions require a significant investment by CPH in initial training of operators of CPH’s equipment. CPH cannot assure you that CPH will be able to locate, employ, or retain such qualified personnel on terms acceptable to CPH or at all. CPH’s costs of operations and selling, general and administrative expenses have increased in certain markets and may increase in the future if CPH is required to increase wages and salaries to attract qualified personnel, and there is no assurance that CPH can increase its prices to offset any such cost increases. There is also no assurance CPH can effectively limit staff turnover as competitors or other employers seek to hire CPH’s personnel. A significant increase in such turnover could negatively affect CPH’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
CPH’s credit facilities may limit the business' financial and operating flexibility.
CPH’s credit facilities includes negative covenants restricting its ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other payments, make loans and investments, sell assets, incur certain liens, enter into transactions with affiliates, and consolidate, merge or sell assets. These covenants limit the ability of the respective restricted entities to fund future working capital and capital expenditures, engage in
58

future acquisitions or development activities, or otherwise realize the value of their assets and opportunities fully because of the need to dedicate a portion of cash flow from operations to payments on debt. In addition, such covenants limit the flexibility of the respective restricted entities in planning for, or reacting to, changes in the industries in which they operate.
CPH’s business could be hurt if it is unable to obtain capital as required, resulting in a decrease in CPH’s revenue and cash flows.
CPH requires capital for, among other purposes, purchasing equipment to replace existing equipment that has reached the end of its useful life and for growth resulting from expansion into new markets, completing acquisitions and refinancing existing debt. If the cash that CPH generates from its business, together with cash that CPH may borrow under the credit facilities to be entered into pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters, is not sufficient to fund CPH’s capital requirements, CPH will require additional debt or equity financing. If such additional financing is not available to fund CPH’s capital requirements CPH could suffer a decrease in its revenue and cash flows that would have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business. Furthermore, CPH’s ability to incur additional debt is and will be contingent upon, among other things, the covenants contained in the credit facilities to be entered into pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters. In addition, the credit facilities to be entered into pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters are expected to place restrictions on CPH’s and CPH’s restricted subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends and make other restricted payments (subject to certain exceptions). CPH cannot be certain that any additional financing that CPH requires will be available or, if available, will be available on terms that are satisfactory to CPH. If CPH is unable to obtain sufficient additional capital in the future, CPH’s business could be materially adversely affected.
CPH may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of its indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy its obligations under applicable debt instruments, which may not be successful.
CPH’s ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance CPH’s indebtedness obligations, including CPH’s term loan and ABL credit facility, depends on CPH’s financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and certain financial, business and other factors beyond CPH’s control. CPH may not be able to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit it to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on CPH’s indebtedness.
If CPH’s cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund debt service obligations, CPH may be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures, sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance indebtedness. CPH’s ability to restructure or refinance CPH’s indebtedness will depend on the condition of the capital markets and CPH’s financial condition at such time. Any refinancing of indebtedness could be at higher interest rates and may require CPH to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict business operations. The terms of existing or future debt instruments may restrict CPH from adopting some of these alternatives. In addition, any failure to make payments of interest and principal on outstanding indebtedness on a timely basis would likely result in a reduction of CPH’s credit rating, which could harm CPH’s ability to incur additional indebtedness.
If CPH is unable to collect on contracts with customers, its operating results would be adversely affected.
CPH has billing arrangements with a majority of its customers that provide for payment on agreed terms after CPH’s services are provided. If CPH is unable to manage credit risk issues adequately, or if a large number of customers should have financial difficulties at the same time, CPH’s credit losses could increase significantly above their low historical levels and CPH’s operating results would be adversely affected. Further, delinquencies and credit losses increased during the last recession and generally can be expected to increase during economic slowdowns or recessions.
If CPH is unable to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or CPH’s internal control over financial reporting is not effective, the reliability of CPH’s financial statements may be questioned and CPH’s stock price may suffer.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires any company subject to the reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws to do a comprehensive evaluation of its and its consolidated subsidiaries’ internal
59

control over financial reporting. To comply with this statute, CPH will eventually be required to document and test its internal control procedures, CPH Management will be required to assess and issue a report concerning CPH’s internal control over financial reporting, and CPH’s independent auditors will be required to issue an opinion on its audit of CPH’s internal control over financial reporting. The rules governing the standards that must be met for management to assess CPH’s internal control over financial reporting are complex and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards under the rules. During the course of its testing, CPH Management may identify material weaknesses or deficiencies which may not be remedied in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. CPH currently has a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting as it relates to the accrual, disbursement, and income tax provision review process. If CPH Management cannot remediate material weakness or favorably assess the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting or CPH’s auditors identify material weaknesses in its internal controls, investor confidence in CPH financial results may weaken, and CPH’s stock price may suffer.
Disruptions in CPH’s information technology systems due to cyber security threats or other factors could limit CPH’s ability to effectively monitor and control CPH’s operations and adversely affect CPH’s operating results, and unauthorized access to customer information on CPH’s systems could adversely affect CPH’s relationships with CPH’s customers or result in liability.
CPH’s information technology systems, including CPH’s enterprise resource planning system, facilitate CPH’s ability to monitor and control CPH’s assets and operations and adjust to changing market conditions and customer needs. Any disruptions in these systems or the failure of these systems to operate as expected could, depending on the magnitude of the problem, adversely affect CPH’s operating results by limiting CPH’s capacity to effectively monitor and control CPH’s assets and operations and adjust to changing market conditions in a timely manner. Many of CPH’s business records at most of CPH’s branches are still maintained manually, and loss of those records as a result of facility damage, personnel changes or otherwise could also cause such disruptions. In addition, because CPH’s systems sometimes contain information about individuals and businesses, CPH’s failure to appropriately safeguard the security of the data it holds, whether as a result of its own error or the malfeasance or errors of others, could harm CPH’s reputation or give rise to legal liabilities, leading to lower revenue, increased costs and other material adverse effects on CPH’s results of operations.
CPH has taken steps intended to mitigate these risks, including business continuity planning, disaster recovery planning and business impact analysis. However, a significant disruption or cyber intrusion could adversely affect CPH’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. Furthermore, instability in the financial markets as a result of terrorism, sustained or significant cyber attacks, or war could also materially adversely affect CPH’s ability to raise capital.
Fluctuations in fuel costs or reduced supplies of fuel could harm CPH’s business.
Fuel costs represent a significant portion of CPH’s operating expenses and CPH is dependent upon fuel to transport and operate its equipment. CPH could be adversely affected by limitations on fuel supplies or increases in fuel prices that result in higher costs of transporting equipment to and from job sites and higher costs to operate CPH’s concrete pumps and other equipment. Although CPH is able to pass through the impact of fuel price charges to most of its customers, there is often a lag before such pass-through arrangements are reflected in CPH’s operating results and there may be a limit to how much of any fuel price increases CPH can pass onto its customers. Any such limits may adversely affect CPH’s results of operations.
CPH depends on access to its branch facilities to service its customers and maintain and store its equipment.
CPH depends on its primary branch facilities in the U.S. and U.K., respectively, to store, service and maintain its fleet. These facilities contain most of the specialized equipment CPH requires to service its fleet, in addition to the extensive secure storage areas needed for a significant number of large vehicles. If any of CPH’s facilities were to sustain significant damage or become unavailable to CPH for any reason,
60

including natural disasters, CPH’s operations could be disrupted, which could in turn adversely affect its relationships with its customers and its results of operations and cash flow. Any limitation on CPH’s access to facilities as a result of any breach of, or dispute under, CPH’s leases could also disrupt and adversely affect CPH’s operations.
CPH’s acquisitions made in the U.K. may divert CPH’s resources from other aspects of CPH’s business and require it to incur additional debt, and will subject it to additional and different regulations. Failure to manage these economic, financial, business and regulatory risks may adversely impact CPH’s growth in the U.K. and CPH’s results of operations.
CPH’s expansion into markets in the U.K. required, and may continue to require, it to incur additional debt and divert resources from other aspects of CPH’s business. In addition, CPH may incur difficulties in staffing and managing its U.K. operations, and face fluctuations in currency exchange rates, exposure to additional regulatory requirements, including certain trade barriers, changes in political and economic conditions, and exposure to additional and potentially adverse tax regimes. CPH’s success in the U.K. will depend, in part, on CPH’s ability to anticipate and effectively manage these and other risks. CPH’s failure to manage these risks may adversely affect CPH’s growth in the U.K. and lead to increased administrative and other costs.
CPH may be adversely affected by recent developments relating to the U.K.’s referendum vote in favor of leaving the European Union.
The U.K. held a referendum on June 23, 2016 in which a majority voted for the U.K.’s withdrawal from the European Union, which is commonly referred to as Brexit. As a result of this vote, a process of negotiation has begun to determine the terms of Brexit and of the U.K.’s relationship with the European Union going forward. The effects of the Brexit vote and the perceptions as to the impact of the withdrawal of the U.K. from the European Union may adversely affect business activity and economic and market conditions in the U.K., the Eurozone, and globally and could contribute to instability in global financial and foreign exchange markets, including volatility in the value of the pound sterling and the euro. In addition, Brexit could lead to additional political, legal and economic instability in the European Union. Any of these effects of Brexit, and others CPH cannot anticipate, could adversely affect the value of CPH’s assets in the U.K., as well as CPH’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
Due to the material portion of CPH’s business conducted in currency other than U.S. dollars, CPH has significant foreign currency risk.
CPH’s consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with GAAP, and CPH reports, and will continue to report, its results in U.S. dollars. Some of CPH’s operations are conducted by subsidiaries in the United Kingdom. The results of operations and the financial position of these subsidiaries are recorded in the relevant foreign currencies and then translated into U.S. dollars. Any change in the value of the pound sterling against the U.S. dollar during a given financial reporting period would result in a foreign currency loss or gain on the translation of U.S. dollar denominated revenues and costs. The exchange rates between the pound sterling against the U.S. dollar have fluctuated significantly in recent years and may fluctuate significantly in the future. Consequently, CPH’s reported earnings could fluctuate materially as a result of foreign exchange translation gains or losses and may not be comparable from period to period.
CPH faces market risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and foreign currency exposure on the translation into U.S. dollars of the financial results of CPH’s operations in the United Kingdom. Exchange rate fluctuations could have an adverse effect on CPH’s results of operations. Both favorable and unfavorable foreign currency impacts to CPH’s foreign currency-denominated operating expenses are mitigated to a certain extent by the natural, opposite impact on CPH’s foreign currency-denominated revenue.
Recently enacted U.S. tax legislation may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.
On December 22, 2017, the President of the U.S. signed into law Public Law No. 115-97, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, following its passage by the United States Congress. The Tax Cuts
61

and Jobs Act made significant changes to U.S. federal income tax laws, including changing the corporate tax rate to a flat 21% rate, introducing a capital investment deduction in certain circumstances, placing certain limitations on interest deductions, modifying the rules regarding the usability of certain net operating losses, and making extensive changes to the U.S. international tax system. CPH is currently in the process of analyzing the effects of this new legislation on its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow. The impact of these new rules is uncertain and could be adverse.
Risks Related to Industrea and the Business Combination
Although Newco has filed an application to list its securities on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that its securities will be so listed or, if listed, that Newco will be able to comply with the continued listing standards.
Newco has filed a new listing application to list Newco common stock on Nasdaq upon consummation of the Business Combination in accordance with the requirements of the exchange. As part of the listing process, Newco will be required to provide evidence that it is able to meet the initial listing requirements. There can be no assurance that Newco will be able to meet the initial listing standards of Nasdaq or any other exchange or, if its securities are listed, that Newco will be able to maintain such listing.
In addition, if after listing Nasdaq delists Newco’s securities from trading on its exchange for failure to meet the continued listing standards, Newco and its securityholders could face significant material adverse consequences including:

a limited availability of market quotations for its securities;

a determination that its common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in its common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for its common stock;

a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
There has been no prior public market for Newco common stock and a market may never develop, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of Newco common stock.
The Newco common stock is a new issue of securities for which there is no established public market. Newco intends to apply to list the Newco common stock on Nasdaq. However, an active public market for the Newco common stock may not develop or be sustained after the consummation of the Business Combination, which could affect the ability to sell, or depress the market price of, the Newco common stock. We cannot predict the extent to which a trading market will develop or how liquid that market might become.
In addition, the price of Newco securities after the Business Combination can vary due to general economic conditions and forecasts, our general business condition and the release of our financial reports. Additionally, if our securities are not listed on, or become delisted from, Nasdaq for any reason, and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities that is not a national securities exchange, the liquidity and price of our securities may be more limited than if we were quoted or listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be established or sustained.
Past performance by Argand, including Industrea’s management team, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in the post-combination company.
Information regarding performance by, or businesses associated with, Argand and its affiliates is presented for informational purposes only. Past performance by Argand, including our management team, is not a guarantee of success with respect to the Business Combination. You should not rely on the historical record of Argand’s or our management team’s performance as indicative of our future performance the returns the company will, or is likely to, generate going forward. Our officers and directors have not had experience with blank check companies or special purpose acquisition companies in the past.
62

We are not required to obtain and have not obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or from an independent accounting firm, and consequently, you may have no assurance from an independent source that the terms of the Business Combination are fair to our company from a financial point of view.
We are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or from an independent accounting firm that the price we are paying is fair to Industrea from a financial point of view. The Industrea Board did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with their determination to approve the Business Combination. In analyzing the Business Combination, the Industrea Board and Industrea management conducted due diligence on CPH and researched the industry in which CPH operates and concluded that the Business Combination was in the best interest of its stockholders. Accordingly, our stockholders will be relying solely on the judgment of the Industrea Board in determining the value of the Business Combination, and the Industrea Board may not have properly valued such business. The lack of third-party valuation or fairness opinion may also lead an increased number of stockholders to vote against the Business Combination or demand redemption of their shares, which could potentially impact our ability to consummate the Business Combination. For more information about our decision-making process, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Industrea Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”
Our officers, directors, security holders and their respective affiliates may have competitive pecuniary interests that conflict with our interests.
We have not adopted a policy that expressly prohibits our directors, officers, security holders or affiliates from having a direct or indirect pecuniary or financial interest in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by us or in any transaction to which we are a party or have an interest. We do not have a policy that expressly prohibits any such persons from engaging for their own account in business activities of the types conducted by us. Accordingly, such persons or entities may have a conflict between their interests and ours.
In particular, Argand and its affiliates also are focused on investments in the industrial sector. As a result, there may be substantial overlap between companies that would be a suitable business combination for us and companies that would make an attractive target for such other affiliates.
Our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how our public stockholders vote.
Unlike many other blank check companies in which the founders agree to vote their Founder Shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the public stockholders in connection with an initial business combination, our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote any shares of Industrea common stock owned by them in favor the Business Combination. As of the date hereof, our Initial Stockholders own shares equal to 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock. Accordingly, it is more likely that the necessary stockholder approval will be received for the Business Combination than would be the case if our Initial Stockholders agreed to vote any shares of Industrea common stock owned by them in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by our public stockholders.
Our Sponsor, certain members of the Industrea Board and our officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from or are in addition to other stockholders in recommending that stockholders vote in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and approval of the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus.
When considering the Industrea Board’s recommendation that our stockholders vote in favor of the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, our stockholders should be aware that the directors and officers of Industrea have interests in the Business Combination that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders. These interests include:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;
63


the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain cicumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 7, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;

the right of our Initial Stockholders to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Initial Stockholders upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.
Our Initial Stockholders hold a significant number of shares of Industrea common stock. They will lose their entire investment in us if a business combination is not completed.
Our Initial Stockholders hold in the aggregate 5,750,000 Founder Shares, representing 20% of the total outstanding shares. The Founder Shares will be worthless if we do not complete a business combination by August 1, 2019. In addition, our Initial Stockholders hold an aggregate of 11,100,000 private placement warrants that will also be worthless if we do not complete a business combination by August 1, 2019.
The Founder Shares are identical to the shares of Class A common stock included in the units, except that (i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, (ii) our Initial Stockholders, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and public shares owned in connection with the completion of our Business Combination, (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete our Business Combination by
64

August 1, 2019 (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete our Business Combination by August 1, 2019) and (iii) the Founder Shares are automatically convertible into shares of common stock at the time of our Business Combination.
Our Sponsor, directors or officers or their affiliates may elect to purchase shares from public stockholders, which may influence a vote on a proposed Business Combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A common stock.
Our Sponsor, directors or officers or their affiliates may purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of our Business Combination, although they are under no obligation to do so. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such stockholder, although still the record holder of our shares is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that our Sponsor, directors, officers or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling stockholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such purchases could be to vote such shares in favor of the Business Combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining stockholder approval of the Business Combination. This may result in the completion of our Business Combination that may not otherwise have been possible.
In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our Class A common stock and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on the Nasdaq or another national securities exchange or reducing the liquidity of the trading market for our Class A common stock.
Our public stockholders may experience dilution as a consequence of, among other transactions, the issuance of common stock as consideration in the Business Combination and the issuance of common stock to the Argand Investor and the PIPE Investors. Having a minority share position may reduce the influence that our current stockholders have on the management of the post-combination company.
It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, assuming no public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, taking into account (a) the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis and (b) all “in-the-money” options that will be issued at the closing of the Business Combination to certain current and former members of CPH Management: (i) Industrea’s public stockholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 52% in Newco; (ii) our Initial Stockholders and the Argand Investor will own approximately 25% in Newco; (iii) CPH Management will own approximately 9% (based on the most recent estimated Rollover amounts for members of CPH Management, which may increase at Closing in accordance with the Rollover Agreements); (iv) Nuveen will own approximately 6% in Newco; (v) the Lead Common Investor will own approximately 4%; (vi) Peninsula will own approximately 2%; and (vii) the former CPH employee shareholders will own approximately 2% in Newco.
These levels of ownership interest assume that no shares are elected to be redeemed and that our Initial Stockholders have not exercised any of the private placement warrants. The ownership percentages with respect to Newco following the Business Combination does not take into account (a) warrants to purchase common stock that will remain outstanding immediately following the Business Combination or (b) the issuance of any shares upon completion of the Business Combination under the Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C, but does include Founder Shares. Prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, the outstanding Founder Shares are expected to convert into Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter, subject to the limitations (i) set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter (as described herein) and (ii) that, in the event that there are no redemptions by public stockholders, the Sponsor has agreed that the conversion ratio for the Founder Shares shall be no greater than 1:1.0331, such that the number of Class A shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Founder Shares in such case would be 5,940,632 Class A shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). As a result, after giving effect to all forfeitures Industrea expects to issue between 4,436,275 and 7,696,078 shares of
65

Class A common stock pursuant to the conversion of the Founder Shares. For more information, please see the sections entitled “Summary of the Proxy Statement — Impact of the Business Combination on the Public Float” and “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”
To the extent that any shares of common stock are issued upon exercise of the public warrants or the private placement warrants or under the Incentive Plan, current Industrea stockholders may experience substantial dilution. Such dilution could, among other things, limit the ability of current Industrea stockholders to influence management of the post-combination company through the election of directors following the Business Combination.
We have no operating history and are subject to a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution requirement. As such, there is a risk that we will be unable to continue as a going concern if we do not consummate an initial business combination by August 1, 2019. If we are unable to effect a business combination by August 1, 2019, we will be forced to liquidate and our warrants will expire worthless.
We are a blank check company, and as we have no operating history and are subject to a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution requirement, there is a risk that we will be unable to continue as a going concern if we do not consummate an initial business combination by August 1, 2019. Unless we amend the Industrea Charter to extend the life of Industrea and certain other agreements into which we have entered, if we do not complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem our public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to Industrea to pay its franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish our public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law; and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and the Industrea Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including trust account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per unit in the IPO. In addition, if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, there will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our public warrants or the private placement warrants, which will expire worthless, unless we amend the Industrea Charter to extend the life of Industrea and certain other agreements into which we have entered.
The financial statements included in this proxy statement/prospectus do not take into account the consequences to Industrea of a failure to complete a business combination by August 1, 2019.
The financial statements included in this proxy statement have been prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to Industrea’s financial statements for the period from April 7, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017, we are required to complete a business combination by August 1, 2019. The possibility of the Business Combination not being consummated raises some doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern and the financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Even if we consummate the Business Combination, there is no guarantee that the public warrants will ever be in the money, and they may expire worthless and the terms of our warrants may be amended.
The exercise price for our warrants is $11.50 per share of Class A common stock. There is no guarantee that the public warrants will ever be in the money prior to their expiration, and as such, the warrants may expire worthless.
66

Our ability to successfully effect the Business Combination and to be successful thereafter will be dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel, including the key personnel of CPH whom we expect to stay with the post-combination company following the Business Combination. The loss of key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business and its financial condition could suffer as a result.
Our ability to successfully effect our Business Combination is dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel, including the key personnel of CPH. Although some of our key personnel may remain with the post-combination company in senior management or advisory positions following our Business Combination, it is possible that we will lose some key personnel, the loss of which could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business. We anticipate that some or all of the management of CPH will remain in place.
CPH’s success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of senior management, certain of whom would be difficult to replace. Departure by certain of CPH’s officers could have a material adverse effect on the CPH’s business, financial condition, or operating results. CPH does not maintain key-man life insurance on any of its officers. The services of such personnel may not continue to be available to CPH.
Industrea and CPH will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the Business Combination is pending.
Uncertainty about the effect of the Business Combination on employees and third parties may have an adverse effect on Industrea and CPH. These uncertainties may impair our or CPH’s ability to retain and motivate key personnel and could cause third parties that deal with any of us or them to defer entering into contracts or making other decisions or seek to change existing business relationships. If key employees depart because of uncertainty about their future roles and the potential complexities of the Business Combination, our or CPH’s business could be harmed.
We may waive one or more of the conditions to the Business Combination.
We may agree to waive, in whole or in part, one or more of the conditions to our obligations to complete the Business Combination, to the extent permitted by our current certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable laws. For example, it is a condition to our obligations to close the Business Combination that there be no breach of CPH’s representations and warranties as of the closing date. However, if the Industrea Board determines that any such breach is not material to the business of CPH, then the Industrea Board may elect to waive that condition and close the Business Combination. We are not able to waive the condition that our stockholders approve the Business Combination. For more information about the closing conditions to the Business Combination, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.”
The exercise of our directors’ and officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Business Combination may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the Business Combination or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in our stockholders’ best interest.
In the period leading up to the closing date of the Business Combination, events may occur that, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, would require us to amend the Merger Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by the other parties to the Merger Agreement or to waive rights to which Industrea is entitled to under the Merger Agreement. Such events could arise because of changes in the course of CPH’s business, a request by a party to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Merger Agreement or the occurrence of other events that would have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business and would entitle us to terminate the Merger Agreement. In any of such circumstances, it would be in Industrea’s discretion, acting through the Industrea Board, to grant its consent or waive its rights. The existence of the financial and personal interests of the directors described elsewhere in this proxy statement may result in a conflict of interest on the part of one or more of the directors between what he may believe is best for Industrea and our stockholders and what he may believe is best for himself or his affiliates in determining whether or not to take the requested action. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, we do not believe there will be any changes or waivers that our directors and officers would be likely to
67

make after stockholder approval of the Business Combination has been obtained. While certain changes could be made without further stockholder approval, if there is a change to the terms of the transaction that would have a material impact on the stockholders, we will be required to circulate a new or amended proxy statement or supplement thereto and resolicit the vote of our stockholders with respect to the Business Combination Proposal.
We will incur significant transaction and transition costs in connection with the Business Combination.
We have incurred and expect to incur significant costs in connection with consummating the Business Combination and operating as a public company following the consummation of the Business Combination. We may incur additional costs to retain key employees. All expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination, including all legal, accounting, consulting, investment banking and other fees, expenses and costs, will be for the account of the party incurring such fees, expenses and costs.
Industrea’s transaction expenses as a result of the Business Combination are currently estimated at approximately $25,000,000, including $8,050,000 in deferred underwriting commissions to the underwriters of our IPO.
If we are unable to complete an initial business combination, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.30 per share on the liquidation of the trust account, and our warrants will expire worthless.
If we are unable to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.30 per share on the liquidation of the trust account and our warrants will expire worthless.
If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by stockholders may be less than $10.30 per share.
Our placing of funds in the trust account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against us. Although we will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than our independent auditors and the underwriters in our IPO), prospective target businesses and other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any funds held in the trust account for the benefit of our public stockholders, such parties may not execute such agreements, or even if they execute such agreements they may not be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the funds held in the trust account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third-party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative.
Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. Upon redemption of our public shares, if we are unable to complete our Business Combination within the prescribed timeframe, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with our Business Combination, we will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the ten years following redemption. Accordingly, the per-share redemption amount received by public stockholders could be less than the $10.20 per share initially held in the trust account, due to claims of such creditors. Our Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third-party for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a written letter of intent confidentially or similar agreement or business combination, reduce the amount of funds in the trust
68

account to below the lesser of  (i) $10.20 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the funds held in the trust account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of our IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, we have not asked our Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, or have we independently verified whether our Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe that our Sponsor’s only assets are securities of Industrea. Therefore, we cannot assure you that our Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
Our directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of our Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to our public stockholders.
In the event that the proceeds in the trust account are reduced below the lesser of  (i) $10.20 per share and (ii) the actual amount per share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, and our Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, our independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against our Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While we currently expect that our independent directors would take legal action on our behalf against our Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent directors in exercising their business judgment and subject to their fiduciary duties may choose not to do so in any particular instance if, for example, the cost of such legal action is deemed by the independent directors to be too high relative to the amount recoverable or if the independent directors determine that a favorable outcome is not likely. If our independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount of funds in our trust account available for distribution to our public stockholders may be reduced below $10.20 per share.
We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of our directors and executive officers.
We have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, our officers and directors have agreed to waive any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any funds in the trust account and to not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason whatsoever. Accordingly, any indemnification provided will be able to be satisfied by us only if  (i) we have sufficient funds outside of the trust account or (ii) we consummate an initial business combination. Our obligation to indemnify our officers and directors may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our officers or directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our stockholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.
If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the trust account, the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.
69

Subsequent to our completion of our Business Combination, we may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and our stock price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.
Although we have conducted due diligence on CPH, we cannot assure you that this diligence will surface all material issues that may be present in CPH’s business, that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence, or that factors outside of CPH’s business and outside of our and CPH’s control will not later arise. As a result of these factors, we may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in losses. Even if our due diligence successfully identifies certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with our preliminary risk analysis. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and not have an immediate impact on our liquidity, the fact that we report charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about the post-combination company or its securities. Accordingly, any of our stockholders who choose to remain stockholders following our Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares. Such stockholders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value unless they are able to successfully claim that the reduction was due to the breach by our officers or directors of a duty of care or other fiduciary duty owed to them, or if they are able to successfully bring a private claim under securities laws that this proxy statement relating to the Business Combination contained an actionable material misstatement or material omission.
We have no operating or financial history and our results of operations may differ significantly from the unaudited pro forma financial data included in this proxy statement/prospectus.
We are a blank check company and we have no operating history and no revenues. This proxy statement/prospectus includes unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for the post-combination company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations of the post-combination company combines the historical audited results of operations of Industrea for the period ended December 31, 2017 and the unaudited results of Industrea for the six months ended June 30, 2018 with the historical audited results of operations of CPH for the year ended October 31, 2017 and the unaudited results of CPH for the six months ended April 30, 2018, respectively, and gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of the post-combination company combines the historical unaudited balance sheets of Industrea as of June 30, 2018 and of CPH as of April 30, 2018 and gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on June 30, 2018.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only, are based on certain assumptions, address a hypothetical situation and reflect limited historical financial data. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations and financial position that would have been achieved had the Business Combination been consummated on the dates indicated above, or the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the post-combination company. Accordingly, the post-combination company’s business, assets, cash flows, results of operations and financial condition may differ significantly from those indicated by the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements included in this document. For more information, please see the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”
Unanticipated changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We will be subject to income taxes in the United States, and our domestic tax liabilities will be subject to the allocation of expenses in differing jurisdictions. Our future effective tax rates could be subject to volatility or adversely affected by a number of factors, including:

changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities;

expected timing and amount of the release of any tax valuation allowances;
70


tax effects of stock-based compensation;

costs related to intercompany restructurings;

changes in tax laws, regulations or interpretations thereof; and

lower than anticipated future earnings in jurisdictions where we have lower statutory tax rates and higher than anticipated future earnings in jurisdictions where we have higher statutory tax rates.
In addition, we may be subject to audits of our income, sales and other transaction taxes by U.S. federal and state authorities. Outcomes from these audits could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
If the Business Combination’s benefits do not meet the expectations of investors, stockholders or financial analysts, the market price of Newco securities may decline.
If the benefits of the Business Combination do not meet the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the market price of Newco securities may decline. The market value of Newco securities at the time of the Business Combination may vary significantly from the prices of Industrea’s securities on the date the Merger Agreement was executed, the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, or the date on which our stockholders vote on the Business Combination.
In addition, following the Business Combination, fluctuations in the price of Newco securities could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Immediately prior to the Business Combination, there has not been a public market for Newco or CPH’s stock and trading in the shares of Industrea common stock has not been active. Accordingly, the valuation ascribed to CPH and Industrea common stock in the Business Combination may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market following the Business Combination. If an active market for our securities develops and continues, the trading price of Newco securities following the Business Combination could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our securities and Newco securities may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of our securities may not recover and may experience a further decline.
Factors affecting the trading price of Newco’s securities following the Business Combination may include:

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;

changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results;

the public’s reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;

speculation in the press or investment community;

success of competitors;

our operating results failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;

changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning the post-combination company or the market in general;

operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to the post-combination company;

our ability to market new and enhanced products on a timely basis;

changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;

commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving the post-combination company;
71


changes in the post-combination company’s capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;

the volume of shares of Newco common stock available for public sale;

any major change in the Newco Board or management;

sales of substantial amounts of Newco common stock by our directors, officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and

general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, fuel prices, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism.
Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general and Nasdaq have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of our securities, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to the post-combination company could depress our stock price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of our securities also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources, and could also require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments or to settle litigation.
Future sales of Newco common stock may cause the market price of its securities to drop significantly, even if its business is doing well.
Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement:

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the Founder Shares until the earlier of  (A) one year after the Closing or (B) subsequent to the Closing, (x) if the last sale price of the Newco common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing or (y) following the Closing, the date on which Newco completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Newco’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Newco common stock for cash, securities or other property;

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the private placement warrants until 30 days after the Closing;

each CPH Management Holder (as defined therein) has agreed not to transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such CPH Management Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is (a) the first anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; (b) the second anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; and (c) the third anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; and

each Non-Management CPH Holder (as defined therein) may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such Non-Management CPH Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing.
72

In addition, certain CPH stockholders and the Initial Stockholders will be entitled to registration rights, subject to certain limitations, with respect to Newco common stock they receive in the Business Combination pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement to be entered into in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. The Stockholders Agreement provides that Newco will, not later than 90 days after the Closing, file a registration statement covering the Founder Shares, the private placement warrants (including any common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of any such private placement warrants) and the shares of Newco common stock issued to the CPH stockholders at the Closing. In addition, these stockholders will have certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights following the consummation of the Business Combination. Newco will bear certain expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of such rights. The presence of these additional securities trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of Newco common stock.
A significant portion of our total outstanding shares are restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of Class A common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our Class A common stock. After the Business Combination, our Initial Stockholders will hold between 13% (assuming no redemptions) and 16% (assuming maximum redemptions) of Newco common stock. Our Initial Stockholders entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until one year after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier if subsequent to the Business Combination, (i) the closing price of our common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination or (ii) we consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly and could fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors due to seasonality and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, resulting in a decline in our stock price.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly because of several factors, including:

labor availability and costs for hourly and management personnel;

profitability of our products, especially in new markets and due to seasonal fluctuations;

changes in interest rates;

impairment of long-lived assets;

macroeconomic conditions, both nationally and locally;

negative publicity relating to products we serve;

changes in consumer preferences and competitive conditions;

expansion to new markets; and

fluctuations in commodity prices.
If, following the Business Combination, securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about the post-combination company, its business, or its market, or if they change their recommendations regarding Newco common stock adversely, then the price and trading volume of Newco common stock could decline.
The trading market for Newco common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market, or our competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on Industrea or the
73

post-combination company. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of the post-combination company, Newco’s stock price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover the post-combination company change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of Newco common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover the post-combination company were to cease coverage of the post-combination company or fail to regularly publish reports on it, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause Newco’s stock price or trading volume to decline.
We may be unable to obtain additional financing to fund the operations and growth of the post-combination company.
We may require additional financing to fund the operations or growth of the post-combination company. The failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development or growth of the post-combination company. None of our officers, directors or stockholders is required to provide any financing to us in connection with or after our Business Combination.
Changes in laws or, regulations or rules, or a failure to comply with any laws, regulations or rules, may adversely affect our business, investments and results of operations.
We are subject to laws, regulations and rules enacted by national, regional and local governments and Nasdaq. In particular, we are required to comply with certain SEC, Nasdaq and other legal or regulatory requirements. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws, regulations and rules may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws, regulations or rules and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, investments and results of operations. In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations or rules, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
We have not registered the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time, and such registration may not be in place when an investor desires to exercise warrants, thus precluding such investor from being able to exercise its warrants except on a cashless basis and potentially causing such warrants to expire worthless.
We have not registered the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time. Following the Business Combination, Newco will assume such warrants and the warrants will be exercisable for Newco common stock. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the Business Combination, to use our best efforts to file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such shares and maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so if, for example, any facts or events arise which represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in such registration statement or prospectus, the financial statements contained or incorporated by reference therein are not current or correct or the SEC issues a stop order. If the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not registered under the Securities Act, we will be required to permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. However, no warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and we will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder or an exemption is available. Notwithstanding the above, if Newco common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of warrants who exercise their warrants to do so a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but we will use our best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant, or issue securities or other compensation in exchange for the warrants in the event that we are unable to register or qualify the shares underlying the warrants under applicable state securities laws. If the issuance
74

of the shares upon exercise of the warrants is not so registered or qualified or exempt from registration or qualification, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In such event, holders who acquired their warrants as part of a purchase of units will have paid the full unit purchase price solely for the shares of Class A common stock included in the units. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying shares of common stock for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
The exercise price for our warrants is higher than in many similar blank check company offerings in the past, and, accordingly, the warrants are more likely to expire worthless.
The exercise price of our warrants is higher than is typical with many similar blank check companies in the past. Historically, with regard to units offered by blank check companies, the exercise price of a warrant was generally a fraction of the purchase price of the units in the IPO. The exercise price for our warrants is $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein. As a result, the warrants are less likely to ever be in the money and more likely to expire worthless.
We may amend the terms of the warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders with the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then-outstanding warrants. As a result, the exercise price of our warrants could be increased, the exercise period could be shortened and the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant could be decreased without a warrant holder’s approval.
Our warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then-outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders. Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 65% of the then-outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment. Although our ability to amend the terms of the warrants with the consent of at least 65% of the then-outstanding public warrants is unlimited, examples of such amendments could be amendments to, among other things, increase the exercise price of the warrants, shorten the exercise period or decrease the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant.
We may redeem unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to warrant holders, thereby making their warrants worthless.
We have the ability to redeem outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of  $0.01 per warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force the warrant holders (i) to exercise their warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for them to do so, (ii) to sell their warrants at the then-current market price when they might otherwise wish to hold their warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of their warrants. None of the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by our Initial Stockholders or their permitted transferees.
Because each warrant is exercisable for only one share of our Class A common stock, the units may be worth less than units of other blank check companies.
Each warrant is exercisable for one share of Class A common stock. Warrants may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest
75

in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Class A common stock to be issued to the warrant holder. As a result, warrant holders who did not purchase an even number of warrants must sell any odd number of warrants in order to obtain full value from the fractional interest that will not be issued. This is different from other companies similar to ours whose units include one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one whole share. This unit structure may cause our units to be worth less than if it included a warrant to purchase one whole share.
Industrea’s warrants will become exercisable for Newco common stock, which would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to Newco’s stockholders.
We issued 23,000,000 public warrants as part of our IPO, and prior to our IPO, we issued 11,100,000 private placement warrants to our Sponsor. Each warrant is exercisable for one share of common stock at $11.50 per share. In addition, prior to consummating an initial business combination, nothing prevents us from issuing additional securities in a private placement so long as they do not participate in any manner in the trust account or vote as a class with the Industrea common stock on a business combination. Following the Business Combination, Industrea’s warrants will become exercisable for shares of Newco common stock. To the extent such warrants are exercised, additional shares of Newco common stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to the holders of common stock of Newco and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market could adversely affect the market price of Newco common stock.
Our stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.
Under the DGCL, stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. The pro rata portion of the trust account distributed to our public stockholders upon the redemption of our public shares in the event we do not complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019 may be considered a liquidation distribution under Delaware law. If a corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the DGCL intended to ensure that it makes reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. However, it is our intention to redeem our public shares as soon as reasonably possible following August 1, 2019 in the event we do not complete an initial business combination and, therefore, we do not intend to comply with those procedures.
Because we will not be complying with Section 280, Section 281(b) of the DGCL requires us to adopt a plan, based on facts known to us at such time that will provide for our payment of all existing and pending claims or claims that may be potentially brought against us within the ten years following our dissolution. However, because we are a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and our operations will be limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from our vendors (such as lawyers, investment bankers, etc.) or prospective target businesses. If our plan of distribution complies with Section 281(b) of the DGCL, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would likely be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. We cannot assure you that we will properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against us. As such, our stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of our stockholders may extend beyond the third anniversary of such date. Furthermore, if the pro rata portion of our trust account distributed to our public stockholders upon the redemption of our public shares in the event we do not complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019 is not considered a liquidation distribution under Delaware law and such redemption distribution is deemed to be unlawful, then pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, the statute of limitations for claims of creditors could then be six years after the unlawful redemption distribution, instead of three years, as in the case of a liquidation distribution.
76

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of the Industrea Board may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing the members of the Industrea Board and us to claims of punitive damages.
If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by stockholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover all amounts received by our stockholders. In addition, the Industrea Board may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages, by paying public stockholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.
Newco will be a holding company with no business operations of its own and will depend on cash flow from CPH to meet its obligations.
Following the Business Combination, Newco will be a holding company with no business operations of its own or material assets other than the stock of its subsidiaries. All of its operations will be conducted by its subsidiary, CPH. As a holding company, Newco will require dividends and other payments from its subsidiaries to meet cash requirements. The terms of any credit facility may restrict Newco’s subsidiaries from paying dividends and otherwise transferring cash or other assets to it. If there is an insolvency, liquidation or other reorganization of any of Newco’s subsidiaries, Newco’s stockholders likely will have no right to proceed against their assets. Creditors of those subsidiaries will be entitled to payment in full from the sale or other disposal of the assets of those subsidiaries before Newco, as an equityholder, would be entitled to receive any distribution from that sale or disposal. If CPH is unable to pay dividends or make other payments to Newco when needed, Newco will be unable to satisfy its obligations.
Anti-takeover provisions contained in Newco’s certificate of incorporation and proposed bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.
Newco’s certificate of incorporation contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that stockholders may consider to be in their best interests. We are also subject to anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law, which could delay or prevent a change of control. Together, these provisions may make more difficult the removal of management and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our securities. These provisions will include:

a staggered board of directors providing for three classes of directors, which limits the ability of a stockholder or group to gain control of the Newco Board;

no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;

the right of the Newco Board to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Newco Board or the resignation, death or removal of a director in certain circumstances, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on the Newco Board;

a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent, which forces stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders;

a prohibition on stockholders calling a special meeting and the requirement that a meeting of stockholders may only be called by members of the Newco Board, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors; and
77


advance notice procedures that stockholders must comply with in order to nominate candidates to the Newco Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a meeting of stockholders, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of Newco.
The JOBS Act permits “emerging growth companies” like us to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, which we refer to as the “JOBS Act.” As such, we take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, including (i) the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii) the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements and (iii) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. As a result, our stockholders may not have access to certain information they deem important. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of  (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following August 1, 2022, the fifth anniversary of our IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.0 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Class A common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our prior second fiscal quarter, and (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. Because CPH had revenues during its last fiscal year of approximately $211.2 million, if we expand our business or increase our revenues post-Business Combination, we may cease to be an emerging growth company prior to August 1, 2022.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the exemption from complying with new or revised accounting standards provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act as long as we are an emerging growth company. An emerging growth company can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
We cannot predict if investors will find our securities less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for securities and our stock price may be more volatile.
Risks Related to the Redemption
We do not have a specified maximum redemption threshold. The absence of such a redemption threshold may make it possible for us to complete a Business Combination with which a substantial majority of our stockholders do not agree.
The Industrea Charter does not provide a specified maximum redemption threshold, except that we will not redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (such that we are not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules). As a result, we may be able to complete the Business Combination even though a substantial portion of our public stockholders do not agree with the transaction and have redeemed their shares or have entered into privately negotiated agreements to sell their shares to our Sponsor or our or CPH’s directors, officers or advisors, or any of their respective affiliates. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreements with respect to the
78

private purchase of public shares by Industrea or the persons described above have been entered into with any such investor or holder. We will file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC to disclose private arrangements entered into or significant private purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons that would affect the vote on the Business Combination Proposal or other proposals (as described in this proxy statement/prospectus) at the Special Meeting.
If you or a “group” of stockholders of which you are a part are deemed to hold an aggregate of more than fifteen percent (15%) of our Class A common stock issued in the IPO, you (or, if a member of such a group, all of the members of such group in the aggregate) will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of our Class A common stock issued in the IPO.
A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the public shares. In order to determine whether a stockholder is acting in concert or as a group with another stockholder, Industrea will require each public stockholder seeking to exercise redemption rights to certify to Industrea whether such stockholder is acting in concert or as a group with any other stockholder. Such certifications, together with other public information relating to stock ownership available to Industrea at that time, such as Section 13D, Section 13G and Section 16 filings under the Exchange Act, will be the sole basis on which Industrea makes the above-referenced determination. Your inability to redeem any such excess shares will reduce your influence over our ability to consummate the Business Combination and you could suffer a material loss on your investment in us if you sell such excess shares in open market transactions. Additionally, you will not receive redemption distributions with respect to such excess shares if we consummate the Business Combination. As a result, you will continue to hold that number of shares aggregating to more than 15% of the shares sold in our IPO and, in order to dispose of such excess shares, would be required to sell your stock in open market transactions, potentially at a loss. We cannot assure you that the value of such excess shares will appreciate over time following the Business Combination or that the market price of our Class A common stock will exceed the per-share redemption price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, stockholders may challenge Industrea’s determination as to whether a stockholder is acting in concert or as a group with another stockholder in a court of competent jurisdiction.
However, our stockholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including such excess shares) for or against the Business Combination is not restricted by this limitation on redemption.
There is no guarantee that a stockholder’s decision whether to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account will put the stockholder in a better future economic position.
We can give no assurance as to the price at which a stockholder may be able to sell its public shares in the future following the completion of the Business Combination or any alternative business combination. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the Business Combination, may cause an increase in our share price, and may result in a lower value realized now than a stockholder of Industrea might realize in the future had the stockholder not redeemed its shares. Similarly, if a stockholder does not redeem its shares, the stockholder will bear the risk of ownership of the public shares after the consummation of any initial business combination, and there can be no assurance that a stockholder can sell its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. A stockholder should consult the stockholder’s own tax and/or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect his, her or its individual situation.
Industrea stockholders who wish to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account must comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline. If stockholders fail to comply with the redemption requirements specified in this proxy statement/prospectus, they will not be entitled to redeem their shares of our Class A common stock for a pro rata portion of the funds held in our trust account.
Public stockholders who wish to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account must, among other things (i) submit a request in writing and (ii) tender their certificates to our Transfer Agent or deliver their shares to the Transfer Agent electronically through the DWAC system at least two business
79

days prior to the Special Meeting. In order to obtain a physical stock certificate, a stockholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC and our Transfer Agent will need to act to facilitate this request. It is our understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent. However, because we do not have any control over this process or over the brokers, it may take significantly longer than two weeks to obtain a physical stock certificate. If it takes longer than anticipated to obtain a physical certificate, stockholders who wish to redeem their shares may be unable to obtain physical certificates by the deadline for exercising their redemption rights and thus will be unable to redeem their shares.
Stockholders electing to redeem their shares will receive their pro rata portion of the trust account less franchise and income taxes payable, calculated as of two business days prior to the anticipated consummation of the Business Combination. Please see the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders —  Redemption Rights” for additional information on how to exercise your redemption rights.
If a stockholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem our public shares in connection with our Business Combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.
If, despite our compliance with the proxy rules, a stockholder fails to receive our proxy materials, such stockholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem its shares. In addition, the proxy materials that we are furnishing to holders of our public shares in connection with our Business Combination describes the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem public shares. In the event that a stockholder fails to comply with these procedures, its shares may not be redeemed.

SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
This proxy statement/prospectus is being provided to stockholders as part of a solicitation of proxies by the Industrea Board for use at the Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on [           ], 2018, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. This proxy statement/prospectus contains important information regarding the Special Meeting, the proposals on which you are being asked to vote and information you may find useful in determining how to vote and voting procedures.
This proxy statement/prospectus is being first mailed on or about [           ], 2018 to all stockholders of record of Industrea as of  [           ], 2018, the record date for the Special Meeting. Stockholders of record who owned Industrea common stock at the close of business on the record date are entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at the Special Meeting. On the record date, there were 28,750,000 shares of Industrea common stock outstanding.
Date, Time and Place of Special Meeting
The Special Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018, at the offices of Winston & Strawn LLP, located at 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166, or such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned or postponed, to consider and vote upon the proposals.
Voting Power; Record Date
As a stockholder of Industrea, you have a right to vote on certain matters affecting Industrea. The proposals that will be presented at the Special Meeting and upon which you are being asked to vote are summarized above and fully set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. You will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Special Meeting if you owned shares of Industrea common stock at the close of business on [           ], 2018, which is the record date for the Special Meeting. You are entitled to one vote for each share of Industrea common stock that you owned as of the close of business on the record date. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the record date, there were 28,750,000 shares of Industrea common stock outstanding, of which 23,000,000 are public shares and 5,750,000 are Founder Shares held by our Initial Stockholders.
Proposals at the Special Meeting
At the Special Meeting, Industrea stockholders will vote on the following proposals:
1.
Business Combination Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement, dated as of September 7, 2018, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A, and approve the Business Combination;
2.
Nasdaq Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve, for purposes of complying with applicable Nasdaq listing rules, the issuance of more than 20% of Industrea’s issued and outstanding common stock pursuant to the Business Combination;
3.

a.
the name of the new public company will be “Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc.” as opposed to “Industrea Acquisition Corp.”;
b.
Newco will have 500,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, as opposed to Industrea having 220,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock; and
c.
the Newco Charter will not include the various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies that the Industrea Charter contains (such as the obligation to dissolve and liquidate if a business combination is not consummated in a certain period of time);
81

4.
Director Election Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to elect nine directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of Newco;
5.
Incentive Plan Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Incentive Plan, which is an incentive compensation plan for employees, directors and consultants of Newco and its subsidiaries, including CPH, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C; and
6.
Adjournment Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal. This proposal will only be presented at the Special Meeting if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals or the Incentive Plan Proposal.
THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THESE PROPOSALS.
Vote of Industrea’s Sponsor, Directors and Officers
Prior to our IPO, we entered into agreements with our Initial Stockholders, other current directors and officers, pursuant to which each agreed to vote any shares of Industrea common stock owned by them in favor of an initial business combination. These agreements apply to our Initial Stockholders, including our Sponsor, as it relates to the Founder Shares and the requirement to vote all of the Founder Shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and for all other proposals presented to our stockholders in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Our Initial Stockholders, other current directors and officers have waived any redemption rights, including with respect to shares of Class A common stock purchased in our IPO or in the aftermarket, in connection with Business Combination. The Founder Shares held by our Initial Stockholders have no redemption rights upon our liquidation and will be worthless if no business combination is effected by us by August 1, 2019. However, our Initial Stockholders are entitled to redemption rights upon our liquidation with respect to any public shares they may own.
Quorum and Required Vote for Proposals for the Special Meeting
A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the Special Meeting if a majority of the Industrea common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting is represented in person or by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.
Approval of the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock. A stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals. Our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the Business Combination Proposal.
Approval of the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting. Assuming a valid quorum is otherwise established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.
82

The election of directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. This means that the nine director nominees will be elected if they receive more affirmative votes than any other nominee for the same position. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors. Assuming a valid quorum is established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have no effect on the election of directors.
The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the proposals other than the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, other than the Adjournment Proposal, which is not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.
It is important for you to note that, in the event that the Business Combination Proposal or the Nasdaq Proposal does not receive the requisite vote for approval, we will not consummate the Business Combination. If we do not consummate the Business Combination and fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public stockholders.
Recommendation to Stockholders
The Industrea Board believes that each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal to be presented at the Special Meeting is in the best interests of Industrea and our stockholders and unanimously recommends that its stockholders vote “FOR” each of the proposals.
When you consider the recommendation of the Industrea Board in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal, you should keep in mind that our Sponsor and certain members of the Industrea Board and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from or in addition to (or which may conflict with) your interests as a stockholder. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. These interests include, among other things:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain circumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 7, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;

the right of our Initial Stockholders to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Initial Stockholders upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;
83


the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.
Broker Non-Votes and Abstentions
Abstentions and broker non-votes are considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.
A stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have (i) the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Business Combination Proposal and each of the Charter Proposals, and (ii) assuming a valid quorum is otherwise established, no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Nasdaq Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.
In general, if your shares are held in “street” name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on a timely basis on how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other nominee, in its sole discretion, may either leave your shares unvoted or vote your shares on routine matters, but not on any non-routine matters. None of the proposals to be voted on at the Special Meeting are routine matters. As such, without your voting instructions, your brokerage firm cannot vote your shares on any proposal to be voted on at the Special Meeting.
Voting Your Shares — Stockholders of Record
If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by mail or in person at the Special Meeting. Each share of Industrea common stock that you own in your name entitles you to one vote on each of the proposals for the Special Meeting. Your one or more proxy cards show the number of shares of Industrea common stock that you own.
Voting by Mail.   You can vote your shares by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. By signing the proxy card and returning it in the enclosed prepaid and addressed envelope, you are authorizing the individuals named on the proxy card to vote your shares at the Special Meeting in the manner you indicate. We encourage you to sign and return the proxy card even if you plan to attend the Special Meeting so that your shares will be voted if you are unable to attend the Special Meeting. If you receive more than one proxy card, it is an indication that your shares are held in multiple accounts. Please sign and return all proxy cards to ensure that all of your shares are voted. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the Special Meeting. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give
84

instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares of Industrea common stock will be voted as recommended by the Industrea Board. The Industrea Board recommends voting “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Nasdaq Proposal, “FOR” each of the Charter Proposals, “FOR” each of the director nominees, “FOR” the Incentive Plan Proposal, and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal. Votes submitted by mail must be received by [9:00 a.m.], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018.
Voting in Person at the Meeting.   If you attend the Special Meeting and plan to vote in person, we will provide you with a ballot at the Special Meeting. If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the stockholder of record and you have the right to vote in person at the Special Meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person, you will need to bring to the Special Meeting a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee authorizing you to vote these shares. That is the only way we can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares of Industrea common stock.
Voting Your Shares — Beneficial Owners
If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and this proxy statement is being sent to you by that broker, bank or other nominee. The broker, bank or other nominee holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Special Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account by following the instructions that the broker, bank or other nominee provides you along with this proxy statement/prospectus. As a beneficial owner, if you wish to vote at the Special Meeting, you will need to bring to the Special Meeting a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee authorizing you to vote those shares. Please see “Attending the Special Meeting” below for more details.
Attending the Special Meeting
Only stockholders on the record date or their legal proxy holders may attend the Special Meeting. To be admitted to the Special Meeting, you will need a form of photo identification and valid proof of ownership of Industrea common stock or a valid legal proxy. If you have a legal proxy from a stockholder of record, you must bring a form of photo identification and the legal proxy to the Special Meeting. If you have a legal proxy from a “street name” stockholder, you must bring a form of photo identification, a legal proxy from the record holder (that is, the bank, broker or other holder of record) to the “street name” stockholder that is assignable, and the legal proxy from the “street name” stockholder to you. Stockholders may appoint only one proxy holder to attend on their behalf.
Revoking Your Proxy
If you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before the Special Meeting or at the Special Meeting by doing any one of the following:

you may send another proxy card with a later date;

you may notify Industrea’s Secretary in writing to Industrea Acquisition Corp., 28 West 44th Street, Suite 501, New York, New York 10036, before the Special Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

you may attend the Special Meeting, revoke your proxy, and vote in person, as indicated above.
No Additional Matters
The Special Meeting has been called only to consider the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Charter Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. Under our bylaws, other than procedural matters incident to the conduct of the Special Meeting, no other matters may be considered at the Special Meeting if they are not included in this proxy statement/prospectus, which serves as the notice of the Special Meeting.

Redemption Rights
Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, we are providing our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem, upon the closing of the Business Combination, public shares then held by them for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission totaling $8,050,000 that we will pay to the underwriters of our IPO or transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2018, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.30.
In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must:

(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and

prior to [    ], Eastern Time, on [           ], 2018, (a) submit a written request to the Transfer Agent that Industrea redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically DTC.
The Transfer Agent’s address is as follows:
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
1 State Street, 30th Floor
New York, New York 10004
Attention: Mark Zimkind
Email: mzimkind@continentalstock.com
Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent and time to effect delivery. It is our understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent. However, we do not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks.
Stockholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their bank, broker or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically. If you do not submit a written request and deliver your public shares as described above, your shares will not be redeemed.
Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name” are required to either tender their certificates to our Transfer Agent prior to the date set forth in these proxy materials, or up to two business days prior to the vote on the proposal to approve the Business Combination at the Special Meeting, or to deliver their shares to the Transfer Agent electronically using DTC’s DWAC system, at such stockholder’s option. The requirement for physical or electronic delivery prior to the Special Meeting ensures that a redeeming stockholder’s election to redeem is irrevocable once the Business Combination is approved.
86

Holders of outstanding units must separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing.
If you hold units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such units to the Transfer Agent with written instructions to separate such units into public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the public share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the units.
If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds your units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to our Transfer Agent. Such written instructions must include the number of units to be split and the nominee holding such units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC system, a withdrawal of the relevant units and a deposit of an equal number of public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the units. While this is typically done electronically on the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your public shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your redemption rights.
Each redemption of public shares by our public stockholders will reduce the amount in our trust account, which held cash and marketable securities with a fair value of approximately $237.5 million as of August 31, 2018. In no event will we redeem shares of our Class A common stock in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.
Prior to exercising redemption rights, stockholders should verify the market price of our Class A common stock as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their Class A common stock in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your shares of our Class A common stock in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in our Class A common stock when you wish to sell your shares.
If you exercise your redemption rights, your shares of our Class A common stock will cease to be outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination and will only represent the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account. You will no longer own those shares and will have no right to participate in, or have any interest in, the future growth of the post-combination company, if any. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly and timely demand redemption.
If the Business Combination is not approved and we do not consummate an initial business combination by August 1, 2019, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public stockholders and our warrants will expire worthless.
Appraisal Rights
Appraisal rights are not available to holders of shares of Industrea common stock in connection with the Business Combination.
Proxy Solicitation Costs
Industrea is soliciting proxies on behalf of the Industrea Board. This proxy solicitation is being made by mail, but also may be made by telephone or in person. Industrea has engaged Morrow to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Special Meeting. Industrea and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person. Industrea will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions.
87

Industrea will bear the entire cost of the proxy solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing, mailing and distribution of the proxy materials. Industrea will pay Morrow a fee of  $22,500, plus disbursements, reimburse Morrow for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and indemnify Morrow and its affiliates against certain claims, liabilities, losses, damages and expenses for their services as our proxy solicitor. We will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding the proxy materials to our stockholders. Directors, officers and employees of Industrea who solicit proxies will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the Business Combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) as well as Debt Financing and Equity Financing. The Business Combination will be accounted for as an acquisition of CPH (the accounting acquiree) by Industrea (the accounting acquirer) since, immediately following completion of the transaction, the stockholders of Industrea immediately prior to the Business Combination will have effective control of Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp. (“Newco”) the post-combination company, through their approximate 52% ownership interest in the post-combination entity, assuming no share redemptions (approximately 36% in the event of maximum share redemptions), and their ability to elect a majority of the board of directors.
The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Business Combination and the proposed related Debt Financing and Equity Financing (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the post-combination company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet is based on the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet of CPH and the unaudited condensed balance sheet of Industrea, and has been prepared to reflect the Business Combination and the proposed related Debt Financing and Equity Financing as if they occurred on June 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 combines the historical results of operations of CPH and for Industrea for the periods described below, giving effect to the Business Combination and the proposed Debt Financing and Equity Financing as if they occurred on January 1, 2017.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations information for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was derived from CPH’s unaudited consolidated statement of income for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and Industrea’s unaudited statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet information as of June 30, 2018 was derived from CPH unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2018 and Industrea’s unaudited balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Such unaudited interim financial information has been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements of CPH and Industrea, respectively, each of which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations information for the year ended December 31, 2017 was derived from CPH’s audited consolidated statement of income for the year ended October 30, 2017 and Industrea’s audited statement of operations for the period April 7, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017 included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. See Note 2, Basis of the Pro Forma Presentation for further discussion regarding combining entities with differing fiscal years.
These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are for informational purposes only. They do not purport to indicate the results that would actually have been obtained had the Business Combination and the Debt Financing and Equity Financing s been completed on the assumed date or for the periods presented, or which may be realized in the future. The pro forma adjustments are based on the information currently available and the assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial information.
Newco will likely incur additional costs in order to satisfy its obligations as a fully reporting public company as it transitions from an emerging growth company status, however, no estimate has been reflected as an adjustment to the unaudited pro forma statements of operations. In addition, Industrea anticipates adoption of various stock compensation plans or programs that are typical for employees, officers and directors of public companies. No adjustment to the unaudited pro forma statement of operations has been made for these items as they are not related to the transaction nor supportable with facts at this time.
89

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the date indicated, nor is it indicative of the future consolidated results of operations of the post-combination company. The selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information below should be read in conjunction with the sections entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” “CPH Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Industrea’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the historical financial statements and notes thereto of CPH and Industrea included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been prepared using two different levels of redemptions of public shares:

Scenario 1 — Assuming No Redemption:   This presentation assumes that no public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their, public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account; and

Scenario 2 — Assuming Redemption of 100%, or 23,000,000, public shares by public stockholders: This presentation assumes that public stockholders exercise their redemption rights with respect to 23,000,000 public shares, which is the maximum number of shares redeemable that would permit Industrea to close the Business Combination utilizing the Backstop.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Note 1 — Description of the Transaction
For a description of the terms of the Business Combination and related documents, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal.”
Note 2 — Basis of the Pro Forma Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on Industrea and CPH historical consolidated financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of CPH and any other consideration necessary to finance the Business Combination. CPH and Industrea have differing fiscal year ends, October 31st and December 31st, respectively. Accordingly, quarter ends are also differing commensurate with the timing of the aforementioned fiscal year ends. The information contained within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and condensed combined balance sheet for CPH will be presented for the corresponding previous period relative to the period presented for Industrea in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X Article 11-02(c).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 is based on the historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of CPH as of April 30, 2018 and the unaudited condensed balance sheet of Industrea as of June 30, 2018 and has been prepared to reflect the Business Combination and the proposed related financing transactions as if they occurred on June 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations information for the six months ended June 30, 2018 combines the historical results of operations of CPH for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and Industrea’s historical results operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations information for the year ended December 31, 2017 combines the historical results of operations of CPH for the year ended October 31, 2017 and Industrea’s historical results operations for the period April 7, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017 giving effect to the Business Combination and the proposed related financing transactions as if they occurred on January 1, 2017.
The Business Combination will be accounted for as a business combination under the scope of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations, or ASC 805. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and was based on the historical financial information of CPH and Industrea. The acquisition method of accounting, based on ASC 805, uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement.” Pursuant to ASC 805, Industrea currently expects that it will be determined to be the accounting acquirer based on the evaluation of the following considerations:

Industrea is considered to be a substantive entity as it previously engaged in significant pre-combination activities in order to raise capital, market to investors and pursue a business combination;

Industrea will pay cash and equity consideration, representing a majority of the consideration paid excluding assumed debt, for a controlling interest of the equity of Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc.;

The existing stockholders of Industrea retain relatively more voting rights in the combined company than CPH Management or Peninsula, a significant CPH shareholder, with or without the impact of Rollover Shares, public warrants and PIPE Financing, i.e. under both a no redemption and maximum redemption scenario; and

None of CPH Management or Pre-Closing Holders, who are holders of shares of CPH capital stock or vested options prior to the Effective Time of the CPH Merger, will have voting control after the Business Combination, or hold a majority of positions on the Board.
Consideration was given to the expectation that the composition of senior management of the post-combination entity after the Business Combination will largely remain unchanged, that is to say that the current management of CPH will continue in their current roles in Newco. Further, the planned initial composition of the Newco Board was considered. The planned initial composition of the Newco Board
95

includes Mr. Bruce Young, Chief Executive Officer of Newco and Iain Humphries, Chief Financial Officer of Newco. Representation from Peninsula will be dependent on their ownership percentage as the Merger agreement includes Peninsula as a member of the Newco Board if they are to hold 5% or greater of the equity interests of the combined company. As this ownership percentage increases, Peninsula will be provided with the right to appoint up to three representatives to the Newco Board. Further, under a no redemption scenario, Peninsula is expected to hold less than 5% of Newco common stock and would not be able to appoint any representatives to the Newco Board. Under a maximum scenario Peninsula would hold approximately 36% of the outstanding shares of Newco and would be able to appoint three members of the Newco Board. Four other independent directors will be on the Newco Board. Industrea will have three representatives on the Newco Board. The remaining Newco interests in the outstanding shares of Newco are held by different parties including former management CPH stockholders, PIPE Investors, Rollover Holders and holders of Newco Series A Preferred Stock. None of the aforementioned interests holds greater than a 12% interest in Newco.
As Industrea is considered to be a substantive entity and giving consideration to the factors above, Industrea is expected to be the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination under both a no redemption and maximum redemption scenario.
CPH constitutes a business, with inputs, processes, and outputs. Accordingly, the acquisition of CPH constitutes the acquisition of a business for purposes of ASC 805, and due to the change in control, will be accounted for using the acquisition method.
Under the acquisition method, the acquisition-date fair value of the Merger Consideration paid by Industrea to effect the Business Combination is allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, as described in Note 3 below. Management of Newco has made significant estimates and assumptions in determining the preliminary allocation of the Merger Consideration transferred in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2018 give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had occurred on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 assumes that the Business Combination was completed on June 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the Companies and related adjustments. The pro forma adjustments are based on the information currently available. The assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes. In accordance with ASC 805, any subsequent changes to the allocation of Merger Consideration transferred that result in material changes to the consolidated financial statements during the measurement period will be adjusted.
Unless indicated otherwise, all amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information section are in thousands, except per share information.
Lastly, the significant accounting policies of Industrea and CPH are aligned and did not require any adjustments to be made by Newco upon consummation of the Business Combination in order to create the significant accounting policies of the post-consummation entity.
Note 3 — Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments
Newco will indirectly acquire CPH for Merger Consideration of approximately, $610 million. Industrea intends to finance the acquisition through Debt Financing of  $350 million. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes various assumptions, including those related to the preliminary purchase price allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of CPH based on management’s best estimates of the expected fair values. The final purchase price allocation may vary based on final appraisals, valuations and analyses of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for illustrative purposes.
96

The estimated purchase price and the allocation of the estimated purchase price discussed below are preliminary. An independent third-party valuation firm assisted in performing a preliminary valuation. The preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to property and equipment was based on the fair value of such assets determined using a combination of value determination through appraisal for approximately 65% of the assets and the cost approach for remaining assets. The cost approach was utilized for a percentage of property and equipment as it was not expected that the difference between current book value of property and equipment and fair value for this population of property and equipment would be materially different.
Goodwill represents the excess fair value of Merger Consideration over the fair value of the underlying net assets, largely arising from the workforce and extensive industry expertise that has been established by CPH.
No portion of the purchase price is contingent on future events occurring or other conditions being met.
The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined at a later date and is dependent on a number of factors, including the determination of the final aggregate consideration paid in connection with the Business Combination as a result of all adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement and the final evaluation of CPH’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such final adjustments, including increases or decreases to depreciation or amortization resulting from the allocation of purchase price to depreciable property, plant and equipment, deferred taxes and amortizable intangible assets, respectively, may be material. The final allocation is expected to occur within one year of the consummation of the Business Combination.
The preliminary consideration and allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of CPH’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed as if the acquisition date was June 30, 2018 is presented as follows (in thousands):

This includes the write off deferred financing costs attributable to the previously listed debt facilities in the amount of  $3.5 million related to long term debt and $1.0 million attributable to revolving credit facilities. The total amount of debt to be paid off is approximately $239.7 million as of June 30, 2018.
Further, in order to extinguish CPH outstanding debt a payment penalty of  $14.0 million will be paid by Newco upon consummation of the Business Combination. $10.5 million of debt issuance costs are expected to be capitalized and amortized over the life of the underlying issuances. Current maturities of long term debt in the amount of  $3.5 million have been re-classed to current liabilities to reflect the portion of the term loan that is expected to be due within the next 12 months.
(3C) Represents the issuance of  $25.0 million of Newco Series A Zero-Dividend Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock to occur concurrently with the Business Combination. Each share will be convertible into shares of Newco common stock at a 1:1 conversion ratio upon satisfaction of certain conditions for conversion. The redemption features contained within the preferred stock were reviewed to determine appropriate pro forms condensed combined balance sheet classification and other relevant treatment derived from the determination of whether the preferred shares are permanent or “temporary” equity. Evaluation of the redemption features resulted in a determination that Series A Zero-Dividend Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock will be presented in permanent equity,
(3D) Represents the Argand Subscription Agreement purchase of 5,333,333 shares of Industrea common stock for proceeds of  $54.4 million. Further, reflects the PIPE Subscription Agreement of 1,906,318 shares of Industrea common stock for proceeds of  $17.5 million. The proceeds from these Private Placements will be used to finance the selling price of the transaction and are available to provide funds to pay redemption amounts for those shareholders who wish to redeem their shares upon consummation of the acquisition under a redemption scenario. Under a zero redemption scenario amounts provided by private placement investment will provide cash to the post-acquisition entity.
(3E) Represents the estimated amount of transaction costs to be paid by Argand of  $25.0 million. This amount is comprised of the following $6.5 million of professional services fees incurred as a result of the Business Combination, $8.0 million of deferred underwriter’s commission and $10.5 million of debt issuance costs.
(3F) In accordance with the Merger Agreement, the purchase price of CPH is $610.0 million. The purchase price includes consideration transferred such as transaction expenses of CPH for $27.0M and for the amount of CPH outstanding debt as disclosed in (3B). Transaction costs of the seller are made up of professional services fees of  $9.8 million and $17.3 million in fees to the former equity sponsor Peninsula. Further consideration transferred includes $297.5 million in cash and $60.0 million in Rollover Shares. Rollover Shares are to be issued at $10.20 per share which is derived as the investment value over the number of shares expected to be issued.
(3G) Represents the payment of liquidation value of approximately $14.70 million of CPH preferred stock. The CPH preferred shares contain a liquidation event redemption feature, wherein upon a qualifying event such as the Business Combination, the participating stockholders are entitled to receive liquidation value of the participating preferred shares plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends on a per share basis.
(3H) Represents the write-up of property, plant and equipment by $12,182 to their estimated fair value of  $207,499. See Note 3 regarding Business Combination.
(3I) Represents the increase in fair value of identifiable intangible assets by $174.3 million to their estimated fair value of  $215,600. See Note 3 regarding Business Combination.
98

(3J) Represents the residual goodwill adjustment of approximately $176.3 million to $252.8 million representing the excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Business Combination as described in Note 3.
(3K) Represents the recording of deferred income tax liabilities of  $43.7 million, resulting from fair value adjustments for property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangible assets in the Business Combination described in Note 3 using an estimated effective income tax rate of 23.3% taking into account applicable U.S. federal, U.S. state and foreign jurisdiction tax rates.
(3L) At the time of issuance, certain of Industrea’s common shares were subject to a possible redemption and, as such, an amount of  $223.0 million was classified outside the equity section in Industrea’s historical balance sheet. Under the assumption that none of the shareholders elect to redeem these shares in connection with the Business Combination, the shares are no longer redeemable and have been classified as a component of shareholders’ equity.
(3M) Represents the elimination of CPH’s common stock, additional paid-in capital, accumulated other comprehensive income and retained earnings as a result of the business combination.
(3N) Represents the decrease in cash and cash equivalents held in the trust account available for transaction consideration. Under the maximum redemption scenario up to $234.6 million held in the trust will be dedicated to the redemption of up to 23.0 million public shares.
(3O) Represents the increase in Rollover Shares from Rollover Holders in order to offset redemptions of public shares in connection with the Business Combination. Under the zero redemption scenario, Rollover Holders will contribute Rollover Shares in the amount of  $60.0 million. Under the maximum redemption scenario this amount is increased to $103.1 million.
(3P) Represents the Argand Backstop amount of  $25.0 million which allows for the offsetting of redemptions by the Argand Investor through the purchase of additional issued Industrea common stock at a price of  $10.20.
Note 4 — Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations Adjustments
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017 are as follows:
(4A) Represents the incremental adjustment to record pro forma depreciation expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to Property, plant and equipment for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 and twelve month period ended December 31, 2017. Depreciation expense for property and equipment was preliminarily estimated based on a straight line methodology, using original useful lives ranging from 3 to 15 years and taking into consideration the fixed assets’ reported ages. The vast majority of property, plant and equipment is attributable to machinery
(4B) Represents the incremental adjustment to record pro forma amortization expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to identifiable intangible assets such as trademarks, backlog and customer relationships, for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 and twelve month period ended December 31, 2017. The estimated remaining useful lives of the identified intangibles were determined based on the projected economic benefits associated with each of the identified intangible assets and was determined to be a 15-year preliminary estimated useful life for trademarks and customer relationships. Customer backlog was given an estimated useful life of 1.5 years.
(4C) Represents the net increase to interest expense to $12.7 million resulting from interest on the Term Loan to finance the acquisition of Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. and the amortization of related debt issuance costs of  $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and $1.5 million twelve months ended December 31, 2017. The interest rate associated with the Term Loan is LIBOR plus 4.50%. As interest rates in future periods could vary from those depicted in the transaction, it was determined that a 1/8% variance in interest rates would result in a $0.4 million difference in interest expense.
99

(4D) Represents the reversal of deferred financing cost (amortization) for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 and twelve month period ended December 31, related to debt settled in connection with the Business Combination.
(4E) Represents the reversal of interest expense paid on the legacy debt facilities of Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. that was settled in connection with the Business Combination.
(4F) Reflects the reversal of  $1.9 million and $0.9 million of interest income attributable to interest earnings on the cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account.
(4G) Represents the income tax effect of the pro forma adjustments related to the acquisition of CPH calculated using the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21%, and 34% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, U.S. state tax rates, and non U.S. tax rates. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different depending on the mix of post-acquisition income and other activities. The pro-forma tax adjustments are reflective of moving the impact for 2017 Tax Reform into the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 from the six month period ended June 30, 2018 to effect the impacts of 2017 Tax Reform in the twelve months ended and to confirm to a fiscal year end of December 31st. Absent the impacts of 2017 Tax Reform within the six month period ended June 30, 2018 the tax benefit would have been $2.7 million.
(4H) To record cumulative dividends on the Preferred Stock for the purpose of determining income (loss) attributable to common stockholders.
(4I) As the Business Combination is being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income (loss) per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment have been outstanding for the entire period presented. All potential common share securities in connection to the Business Combination were antidilutive, and have been ignored for the purposes of diluted EPS. For this reason, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.

THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL
We are asking our stockholders to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination. Our stockholders should read carefully this proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus. Please see the subsection entitled “The Merger Agreement” below, for additional information and a summary of certain terms of the Merger Agreement. You are urged to read carefully the Merger Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.
We may consummate the Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock are voted in favor of the initial business combination.
The Merger Agreement
This subsection of the proxy statement/prospectus describes the material provisions of the Merger Agreement, but does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Merger Agreement. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Annex A hereto. You are urged to read the Merger Agreement in its entirety because it is the primary legal document that governs the Business Combination.
The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of the Merger Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Merger Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement are also modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules, which we refer to as the “Schedules,” which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to stockholders and were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. We do not believe that the Schedules contain information that is material to an investment decision.
General Description of the Merger Agreement
On September 7, 2018, Industrea, Newco, CPH, certain subsidiaries of Newco, and PGP Investors, LLC, solely in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative, entered into the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which (a) a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into CPH, with CPH surviving the merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco, and (b) a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into Industrea, with Industrea surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco.
Under the Merger Agreement, (i) pursuant to the CPH Merger, Newco will indirectly acquire CPH for aggregate consideration of  $610 million (subject to certain customary adjustments), payable in cash after taking into account (x) any shares of CPH capital stock that are contributed to Newco in exchange for shares of Newco common stock (valued at $10.20 per share) prior to the consummation of the CPH Merger and (y) any CPH options that are converted into Newco options, and (ii) pursuant to the Industrea Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock will be exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Newco common stock, and all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Industrea common stock will be exercisable for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock on the existing terms and conditions of such warrants. The cash portion of the consideration payable in the CPH Merger is expected to be between $446.9 million and $550.0 million, depending on the number of public shares that are redeemed in connection with the closing of the Business Combination.
Conversion of CPH Capital Stock and CPH Options

102

At the effective time of the CPH Merger, each share of CPH preferred stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger (other than Rollover Shares, cancelled shares and dissenting shares) will thereupon be canceled and converted into and become the right to receive (i) the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration (as described below), (ii) the holder thereof’s share of any applicable tax refunds in accordance with the Merger Agreement and (iii) such holder’s portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount and Adjustment Escrow Amount (each as defined below), as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement after the Closing.

Rollover
U.S. Rollover
Pursuant to the terms of the Rollover Agreements, at the Closing but prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger, each Rollover Share will be contributed to Newco in consideration of the receipt of the applicable amount of shares of Newco common stock as set forth in the Rollover Agreements, and each Rollover Holder will cease to have any rights with respect to such Rollover Holder’s Rollover Shares, except the right to receive (i) from Newco, the applicable amount of shares of Newco common stock as set forth in the Rollover Agreements, (ii) such Rollover Holder’s share of any applicable tax refunds in accordance with the Merger Agreement and (iii) such Rollover Holder’s portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount or Adjustment Escrow Amount (each as defined below), as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement after the Closing.

U.K. Rollover Investors will also be entitled to receive a portion of the Adjustment Escrow Indemnity and Indemnity Escrow Amount, as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
Dissenting Shares
Any shares of CPH capital stock held by persons who object to the CPH Merger and comply with the provisions of the DGCL concerning the rights of holders of CPH capital stock to dissent from the CPH Merger and require appraisal of their shares of CPH capital stock will not be converted into a right to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration and the holders thereof will be entitled to such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL. Each holder of dissenting shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL will receive payment therefor from the surviving corporation in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that (i) if any such holder of dissenting shares will have failed to establish such holder’s entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in Section 262 of the DGCL, or (ii) if any such holder of dissenting shares will have effectively withdrawn such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment for such holder’s shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder will forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and each such share will not constitute a dissenting share and will be treated as if it had been a share of CPH common stock or CPH preferred stock (as applicable) immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger and converted, as of the effective time of the CPH Merger, into a right to receive from the surviving corporation the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement, without any interest thereon (and such holder will be treated as a Pre-Closing Holder). From and after the effective time of the CPH Merger, no stockholder of CPH who has properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL will be entitled to vote his or her shares of CPH capital stock for any purpose or receive payment of dividends or other distributions with respect to his or her shares of CPH capital stock (except dividends and distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger).
Conversion of Industrea Stock
At the effective time of the Industrea Merger, each share of Industrea capital stock held by Newco, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub or CPH in treasury or otherwise, will be canceled and retired and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered or receivable in exchange therefor.
At the effective time of the Industrea Merger, each share of Industrea common stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Industrea Merger (other than cancelled shares and shares of Industrea common stock redeemed for cash under the terms of Industrea’s certificate of incorporation) will thereupon be canceled and converted into and become the right to receive one share of Newco common stock as follows: each share of Industrea’s Class A Common Stock will be exchanged into one share of Newco common stock and each share of Industrea’s Class B Common Stock will be exchanged into one share of Newco common stock.

104

Closing Payments and Adjustments
The Merger Consideration will consist of  $610 million in cash, which amount will be (i) reduced by, among other things set forth in the Merger Agreement, the amount of funded indebtedness of CPH on the Closing Date, transaction expenses of CPH on the Closing Date and the aggregate portion of the consideration otherwise payable in respect of the total Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOs, (ii) increased by, among other things set forth in the Merger Agreement, the amount of cash and cash equivalents of CPH on the Closing Date up to a $3.0 million cap and (iii) increased or decreased as applicable for the excess or shortfall of net working capital over the target.
The Merger Consideration is also subject to (i) an expense reserve amount paid to the Holder Representative and to be used for payment of expenses incurred by the Holder Representative in its capacity as Holder Representative (“Holder Representative Expense Amount”), (ii) an indemnification escrow for 12 months after the Closing Date of  $6,100,000 for any indemnification claims by Industrea under the Merger Agreement (“Indemnity Escrow Amount”) and (iii) a purchase price adjustment escrow of  $2,000,000 for certain post-closing adjustments to the purchase price (“Adjustment Escrow Amount”). Any proceeds remaining (i) in the purchase price adjustment escrow promptly after completion of the post-closing purchase price adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement, (ii) in the indemnification escrow after 12 months following the Closing Date (subject to any outstanding claims) and (iii) in the Holder Representative Expense Amount upon the Holder Representative’s determination that there are any such funds in excess of that required by the Holder Representative, will be distributed to the Pre-Closing Holders in accordance with the Merger Agreement.
The Merger Consideration will be allocated among the Pre-Closing Holders as set forth below and will be payable in accordance with the Merger Agreement:

Each Pre-Closing Holder of CPH preferred stock will be entitled to receive in respect of each share of CPH preferred stock held by such holder immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger (other than any Rollover Shares) a portion of the Merger Consideration equal to the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share. The “Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share” means, with respect to each share of CPH preferred stock, the sum of  (i) the sum of  (A) the liquidation preference as set forth in the certificate of designation of such CPH preferred stock, plus (B) the aggregate amount of all accumulated, accrued and unpaid preferred dividends payable in respect of such share of CPH preferred stock pursuant to the certificate of designation of such CPH preferred stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger, plus (ii) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share (as defined below).

Each Pre-Closing Holder of CPH common stock will be entitled to receive in respect of each share of CPH common stock (other than any Rollover Share) held by such holder immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger a portion of the Merger Consideration equal to the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share. The “Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share” means the quotient of  (i) the sum of  (A) the Merger Consideration, plus (B) the Aggregate Vested Option Exercise Price (as defined in the Merger Agreement), minus (C) the Aggregate Preferred Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement), plus (D) the Aggregate Rollover Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement) divided by (ii) the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

Each Pre-Closing Holder of any vested CPH option will be entitled to receive in respect of each such vested option (other than Rollover ISOs) held by such holder immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger, the Option Consideration, subject to the withholding requirements set forth in the Merger Agreement. The “Option Consideration” means the product of  (i) the aggregate number of shares of CPH common stock subject to such vested option as of immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger, multiplied by (ii) (A) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share minus (B) the exercise price per share of such CPH vested option as of immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger.
The Merger Consideration is subject to customary adjustments following the Closing as provided in the Merger Agreement. In the event that the Holder Representative and Newco are unable to resolve any disagreements over such adjustments, the parties will submit such dispute to Ernst & Young LLP or such
105

other independent accounting or financial consulting firm of recognized national standing as mutually agreed by the Holder Representative and Newco to make a final and binding determination with respect to such dispute.
Closing and Effective Time of the Business Combination
The Closing is expected to take place at the offices of Winston & Strawn LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time as soon as practicable following the Special Meeting, but in any event no later than the date that is two (2) business days after the date on which all Closing conditions have been satisfied or waived in writing (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) or at such other time and place as Industrea and CPH may mutually agree; provided, however, that in no event will the Industrea Parties be obligated to effect the Closing prior to the third (3rd) business day following the final day of the Debt Financing Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement), unless Industrea requests an earlier date on three (3) business days’ prior written notice (but, subject in such case, to the satisfaction or waiver in writing of all closing conditions, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions).

CPH will exercise its reasonable best efforts to (i) furnish to Industrea all information reasonably required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any Law in connection with the Business Combination (including, to the extent permitted by law, responding to any reasonable requests for copies of documents filed with Industrea’s prior filings) and (ii) otherwise reasonably cooperate with Industrea in connection with any filing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of any governmental authority.

CPH and the Holder Representative will promptly furnish to Industrea copies of any notices or written communications received or given by them or any of their affiliates from or to any third party or any governmental authority with respect to the Business Combination, and CPH and the Holder Representative will permit counsel to Industrea an opportunity to review in advance, and CPH and the Holder Representative will consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by CPH and/or the Holder Representative or their respective affiliates to any third party or any governmental authority concerning the Business Combination. CPH and the Holder Representative agree to provide Industrea and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between CPH and/or the Holder Representative and any of their respective affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any third party or any governmental authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the Business Combination.

CPH agrees to use reasonable best efforts to provide such assistance (and to cause its subsidiaries and its and their respective personnel, representatives and advisors to provide such assistance) with the Debt Financing and marketing efforts to current and prospective equity Investors as is reasonably requested by Industrea that is customary and in connection with the arrangement and consummation of the Debt Financing and the reduction or minimization of redemptions of Industrea Common Stock, as applicable. CPH will, upon reasonable written request of Industrea, use its reasonable best efforts to update any financial information (to the extent it is available) to be included in any offering document to be used in connection with the Debt Financing, to assist Industrea in ensuring that such financial information, when taken as a whole, does not contain as of the time provided, giving effect to any supplements, any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading.

CPH will take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to issue, upon a timely request by Industrea, in accordance with the terms and conditions of  (i) Brundage-Bone’s 10.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2023 and (ii) Brundage-Bone’s 10.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (collectively, the “Existing Notes”) and the indentures for the Existing Notes (the “Existing Notes Indentures”), a notice of redemption to redeem the aggregate principal amount of each series of Existing Notes outstanding as of the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.07 of each Existing Notes Indenture (the “Existing Notes Redemptions”), and CPH will take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause the Existing Notes Redemptions to occur substantially simultaneously with the Closing.

On or prior to the Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions, CPH will take all actions necessary to terminate, and will cause to be terminated, certain contracts between or among (i) existing affiliates of CPH (other than CPH or a subsidiary of CPH), on the one hand, and (ii) CPH or a subsidiary of CPH, on the other hand.
109


Until the first to occur of the Closing or the earlier termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms, CPH will not, and will cause its respective affiliates, directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, consultants and other advisors and representatives not to, directly or indirectly: (a) solicit, initiate, encourage, knowingly facilitate any inquiry or the making of any proposal or offer, (b) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations, (c) furnish to any person any non-public information or grant any person access to its properties, assets, books, contracts, personnel or records, (d) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent, agreement in principal, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other contract, or (e) propose, whether publicly or to any director or stockholder, or agree to do any of the foregoing for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating any proposal, offer, discussions or negotiations; in each case relating to an Acquisition Proposal. “Acquisition Proposal” means any offer or proposal regarding a business combination transaction involving CPH or any of its subsidiaries or any other transaction to acquire all or any material part of the business, properties or assets of CPH or any of its subsidiaries or any amount of the capital stock of CPH or any of its subsidiaries (whether or not outstanding), whether by merger, acquisition of assets, purchase of equity, tender offer or other similar transactions, other than with Industrea. CPH will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any such negotiations, discussion or other communication, or contracts (to the extent unilaterally terminable by CPH without the counterparty’s consent and without penalty) (other than with Industrea) with respect to the foregoing and will immediately (but in any event within five (5) business days after the date of the Merger Agreement) terminate any access of the type referenced in clause (c) above.

CPH, at its sole cost and expense, will cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies by obtaining at or prior to the Closing a prepaid, non-cancelable six-year “tail” policy containing terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger.

CPH will cooperate with Industrea and provide commercially reasonable assistance to Industrea in connection with Industrea’s efforts to maintain bound coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy.

CPH agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Industrea with such information regarding CPH or its subsidiaries that is required to be included in this proxy statement/prospectus or any other statement, filing, notice or application required to be made by or on behalf of Industrea to the SEC or Nasdaq in connection with the Business Combination.

CPH, at its sole cost and expense, will (A) prepare and timely file all tax returns of CPH and each subsidiary of CPH due (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) on or prior to the Closing Date (“CPH Prepared Returns”) and (B) timely pay all taxes that are due and payable (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to the CPH Prepared Returns. Unless otherwise required by law, all CPH Prepared Returns will be prepared in a manner consistent with existing practices and accounting methods of CPH and its subsidiaries.

At or prior to the Closing, CPH will deliver to Concrete Parent a certificate related to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 substantially in the form attached to the Merger Agreement; provided, that Newco’s and Concrete Parent’s sole remedy if CPH fails to deliver such certificate will be to make an appropriate withholding of tax to the extent required pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code (and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder).
Covenants of the Industrea Parties
The Industrea Parties made certain covenants under the Merger Agreement, including, among others, the following:

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Industrea will (and, to the extent required, will cause its affiliates to) (i) comply promptly, but in no event later than
110

five (5) business days after the date hereof, with the notification and reporting requirements of the HSR Act and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and (ii) as soon as practicable, make such other filings or start pre-notification proceedings with any foreign governmental authorities as may be required under any applicable similar foreign law. Industrea will use its reasonable best efforts to substantially comply with any Antitrust Information or Document Requests made of Industrea or any of its affiliates.

Industrea will exercise its reasonable best efforts to (i) obtain termination or expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act and such other approvals, consents and clearances as may be necessary, proper or advisable under any foreign antitrust or competition laws, in each case, as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the date that is 180 days after the execution of the Merger Agreement (the “Termination Date”), (ii) furnish to CPH all information reasonably required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any law in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including, to the extent permitted by law, responding to any reasonable requests for copies of documents filed with Industrea’s prior filings), and (iii) otherwise reasonably cooperate with CPH in connection with any filing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of any governmental authority. In connection therewith, if any action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement as in violation of the HSR Act, any antitrust or applicable foreign competition law, Industrea will use its reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action, including to prevent the entry in any action brought by an antitrust authority or any other person of any governmental order which would prohibit, make unlawful or delay the Business Combination, and initiate and exhaust all appeals, and post bonds in connection therewith) necessary to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the Termination Date) any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, limits or restricts consummation of the Business Combination, unless, by mutual agreement, Industrea and CPH decide that litigation is not in their respective best interests.

Industrea will promptly furnish to CPH and the Holder Representative copies of any notices or written communications received or given by Industrea or any of its affiliates from or to any third party or any governmental authority with respect to the Business Combination, and Industrea will permit counsel to CPH an opportunity to review in advance, and Industrea will consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by buyer and its affiliates to any third party or any governmental authority concerning the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Industrea agrees to provide CPH, the Holder Representative and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between Industrea and any of its affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any third party or any governmental authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the Business Combination.

Industrea will be solely responsible for and pay all fees payable to the antitrust authorities in connection with the Business Combination. Each party will bear its own legal or advisor fees in connection with any filings, actions or litigation described in the bullet point above.

From and after the effective time of the CPH Merger, Newco agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, officer and employee of CPH or any of its subsidiaries against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the effective time of the CPH Merger, to the fullest extent that CPH or any of its subsidiaries, as the case may be, would have been permitted under applicable law and its respective certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents in effect on the date of the Merger Agreement to indemnify such person (including promptly advancing expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law). Without limiting the foregoing, Newco will
111

cause CPH and each of its subsidiaries for a period of not less than six (6) years from the effective time of the CPH Merger (i) to maintain provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of CPH’s and its subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors and employees that are no less favorable to those persons than the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of CPH or such subsidiary, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of the Merger Agreement, and (ii) not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by law.

For a period of no less than one (1) year following the Closing Date, Newco will, or will cause the Concrete Surviving Corporation and its subsidiaries to, provide to each employee of CPH and its subsidiaries who continues in employment with the Concrete Surviving Corporation or any of their subsidiaries following the Closing Date (the “Continuing Employees”) with (i) at least the same base salary or wage rate, as applicable, and annual cash incentive opportunity (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, equity compensation, phantom equity compensation, and retention or transaction bonuses), if any, as those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) provide other employee benefits (including tax-qualified retirement, health, welfare and severance, but excluding equity compensation, phantom equity compensation, and retention or transaction bonuses) which are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than those provided to the Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing.

For purposes of determining eligibility, vesting, participation and benefit accrual (other than for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension, retiree health or welfare, deferred compensation or supplemental retirement plan) under Newco’s and its subsidiaries’ plans and programs providing employee benefits to Continuing Employees after the Closing Date (the “Industrea Benefit Plans”), Newco will (or will cause one of its subsidiaries to) credit each Continuing Employee with his or her years of service with CPH and its subsidiaries (and their predecessors) prior to the Closing Date to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was (or would have been) entitled, before the Closing Date, to credit for such service under CPH Benefit Plans, except to the extent providing such credit would result in any duplication of benefits. In addition, Newco will (or will cause one of its subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) each Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all Industrea Benefit Plans, (ii) each Industrea Benefit Plan providing medical, dental, hospital, pharmaceutical or vision benefits, all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Industrea Benefit Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents (except to the extent that such exclusions or requirements applied to the Continuing Employee under comparable CPH Benefit Plans), and (iii) any co-payments, deductibles and other eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and/or his or her covered dependents during the plan year ending on the Closing Date to be credited for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year of each comparable Industrea Benefit Plan (to the extent such credit would have been given under comparable CPH Benefit Plans prior to the Closing).

The Industrea Parties will use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to arrange the Debt Financing as promptly as practicable following the date hereof and to consummate the Debt Financing on the Closing Date. Industrea will give CPH prompt notice of any breach, repudiation, or threatened or anticipated breach or repudiation, by any party to a Debt Commitment Letter of which Industrea or its affiliates becomes aware. Without limiting the Industrea Parties’ other obligations in this paragraph, if any Financing Failure Event (as defined below) occurs, the Industrea Parties will (x) promptly notify CPH of such Financing Failure Event and the reasons therefor, (y) in consultation with CPH, obtain alternative financing from alternative financing sources, in an amount sufficient to make the payments required under the Merger Agreement and consummate the Business Combination, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, and
112

(z) obtain, and when obtained, provide CPH with a copy of, a new financing commitment, subject only to the financing conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters, that provides for such alternative financing. “Financing Failure Event” means any of the following (A) the commitments with respect to all or any portion of the Financing expiring or being terminated, (B) for any reason, all or any portion of the financing becoming unavailable, (C) a breach or repudiation, or threatened or anticipated breach or repudiation, by any party to a Debt Commitment Letter, or (D) it becoming reasonably foreseeable that any of the events set forth in clauses (A) through (C) will occur, or (E) any party to a Debt Commitment Letter or any affiliate or agent of such person alleges that any of the events set forth in clauses (A) through (C) has occurred.

The Industrea Parties will take all reasonable actions necessary to cause the Existing Notes Redemptions to occur substantially simultaneously with the Closing. The Industrea Parties will provide all funds necessary to consummate the Existing Notes Redemptions at the Closing.

The Industrea Parties will not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, or any replacement of, any Subscription Agreement or Rollover Agreement without the consent of CPH if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Equity Financing or the Rollover, (ii) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the receipt of the Equity Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) delay or prevent the Closing, (y) materially impair or delay the funding of the Equity Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Equity Financing) or (z) adversely affect the ability of Newco to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Subscription Agreements, the Rollover Agreements or any of the definitive agreements with respect thereto, or (iii) adds or changes in any material respect any economic or governance rights or benefits granted to any investor participating in the Equity Financing (including the Argand Investor). The Industrea Parties will use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the applicable Subscription Agreement on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect the Subscription Agreements and using its reasonable best efforts to (i) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to the Industrea Parties in the Subscription Agreements and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (ii) in the event that all conditions in the applicable Subscription Agreement (other than conditions that Newco or any of its affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, consummate transactions contemplated by the applicable Subscription Agreement at or prior to Closing and (iii) enforce their rights under the applicable Subscription Agreement in the event that all conditions in the applicable Subscription Agreement (other than conditions that Industrea or any of its affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, to cause, as applicable, (x) the Argand Investor to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Argand Subscription Agreement at or prior to the Closing and (y) the third party PIPE Investors to consummate the transactions contemplated by the third party PIPE Subscription Agreements at or prior to the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Industrea will give CPH, prompt (and, in any event within three (3) business days) written notice: (A) of any amendment to any Subscription Agreement (together with a copy of such amendment), (B) of any known breach or default (or any known event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Subscription Agreement; (C) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Subscription Agreement with respect to any actual, potential or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Subscription Agreement or any provisions of any Subscription Agreement and (D) if the Industrea Parties do not expect to receive all or any portion of the Equity Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Subscription Agreements.

From and after the Closing Date, Newco will cause CPH and its subsidiaries to retain all books, ledgers, files, reports, plans, operating records and any other material documents pertaining to
113

CPH and its subsidiaries in existence at the Closing that are required to be retained under current retention policies for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date, and to make the same available after the Closing for inspection and copying by the Holder Representative or its representatives at the Holder Representative’s expense, during regular business hours and upon reasonable request and upon reasonable advance notice.

Until the Closing Date, Industrea will not, and will cause its affiliates and representatives not to, contact or communicate with the employees, customers, vendors or suppliers of CPH or any of CPH’s subsidiaries, or any other persons having a business relationship with CPH or any of CPH’s subsidiaries, concerning the Business Combination without the prior written consent of the Holder Representative.

From the date of the Merger Agreement through the Closing, each of the Industrea Parties will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, subject to certain exceptions, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement or as consented to by the Holder Representative in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, delayed or denied), use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) operate its businesses in the ordinary course and substantially in accordance with past practice, (ii) preserve and protect its business organization and employment relationships, (iii) maintain its assets, properties, books of account and records consistent with its past practice, (iv) maintain its books and records consistent with its past custom and practice and (v) to not take any action or fail to take any action that would reasonably be expected to result in any of the Closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement not being satisfied or that would otherwise be reasonably expected to prevent or delay the consummation of the Business Combination in any material respect. Subject to certain exceptions, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as consented to by CPH in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, delayed or denied), the Industrea Parties will not, and will cause their respective subsidiaries not to, except as otherwise contemplated by the Merger Agreement:

(A) change or amend its certificate of incorporation or bylaws or equivalent organizational documents, or (B) authorize for issuance, issue, grant, sell, redeem, deliver, dispose of, pledge or otherwise encumber any equity securities;

(A) split, combine or reclassify any of its capital stock or issue or authorize the issuance of any other securities in respect of, in lieu of or in substitution for shares of its capital stock or any of its other securities or (B) make, set-aside, declare or pay any dividend or other distribution (whether in securities or other property) to its stockholders;

except in the ordinary course of business, materially adversely amend, modify or terminate (excluding any expiration in accordance with its terms) any material contract;

become legally committed to make any capital expenditures except pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement;

sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of any material assets or properties;

make any loans or advances of money to any person (other than the Industrea Parties and their subsidiaries), except for advances to employees or officers of the Industrea Parties or any of their respective subsidiaries for expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice;

(A) incur any material taxes outside of the ordinary course of business, (B) enter into any agreement with any governmental authority (including a “closing agreement” under Code Section 7121) with respect to any material tax or material tax returns of Industrea or any of its subsidiaries, (C) surrender a right of Industrea or any subsidiary of Industrea to a material tax refund, (D) change an accounting period of Industrea or any subsidiary of Industrea with respect to any material tax, (E) file an amended material tax return outside the ordinary course of business, or (F) make or rescind any material tax election or, except as required by GAAP, make any material change to any tax accounting principles, methods or practices;
114


settle any action; or

enter into any agreement, or otherwise become obligated, to do any action prohibited under the above bullet points.

Industrea has obtained and bound coverage under a representations and warranties insurance in substantially the form attached to the Merger Agreement (such policy, the “R&W Insurance Policy”); provided, that all premiums, underwriting fees and brokers’ commissions related to such R&W Insurance Policy will be borne fifty percent (50%) by Industrea or such affiliate and fifty percent (50%) shall be a Transaction Expense (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Subject to the foregoing proviso, prior to the Closing, CPH will provide commercially reasonable assistance to Industrea, if applicable, to the extent required to maintain bound coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy. Industrea will not amend, terminate or otherwise modify the R&W Insurance Policy in a manner adverse to the Pre-Closing Holders without the Holder Representative’s consent.

As soon as practicable after the execution of the Merger Agreement, by in any event on or prior to September 11, 2018, Industrea will prepare and cause Newco to file the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Industrea’s obligation to prepare and cause Newco to file the Registration Statement on or prior to September 11, 2018 will be specifically contingent upon CPH’s satisfaction of all Filing Requirements (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Industrea also agrees to use reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities law or “blue sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the Business Combination, and CPH will furnish all information concerning CPH, its subsidiaries and any of their respective stockholders as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. Industrea will cause this proxy statement/prospectus to be mailed to each Industrea stockholder who was a stockholder of Industrea as of the Record Date promptly after the SEC advises Industrea that the SEC staff has completed the Registration Statement. Promptly after the SEC advises Industrea that the SEC staff has completed its review of the Registration Statement, Industrea will duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Special Meeting.

Each of CPH and Industrea will use their respective reasonable best efforts to ensure that none of the information supplied by or on its behalf for inclusion or incorporation by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus will, at the date it is first mailed to the stockholders of Industrea and at the time of Special Meeting contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

Industrea will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain approval of the Industrea stockholders of the proposals at the Special Meeting, including by soliciting proxies as promptly as practicable in accordance with applicable law for the purpose of seeking such approval. Industrea will, through the Industrea Board, recommend to its stockholders that they vote in favor of each of the proposals at the Special Meeting (the “Industrea Board Recommendation”) and Industrea will include the Industrea Board Recommendation in this proxy statement/prospectus. The Industrea Board will not (and no committee or subgroup thereof will) change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, the Industrea Board Recommendation (a “Change in Recommendation”); provided, that the Industrea Board may make a Change in Recommendation if it determines in good faith that a failure to do so would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law.

Industrea will take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to enforce its rights under that certain letter agreement by and among Industrea, its officers, directors and the Sponsor, dated of July 26, 2017 (the “Industrea Letter Agreement”) in furtherance of obtaining the approval of Industrea’s stockholders and to cause the Sponsor and the Industrea Insiders (as defined in the Industrea Letter Agreement) (including by maintaining in effect the Industrea Letter Agreement and seeking an order of specific performance or other equitable relief or other enforcement actions against the Sponsor and the
115

Industrea Insiders) to (a) vote all shares of Industrea common stock held by them in favor of the Business Combination and (b) not redeem any shares of Industrea common stock owned by any of them in connection with the Industrea Stockholder Approval.

Upon satisfaction or waiver of the Closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and provision of notice thereof to the Trustee (which notice Industrea will provide to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement), (a) in accordance with and pursuant to the Trust Agreement, at the Closing, Industrea (i) will cause the documents, opinions and notices required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement to be so delivered and (ii) will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Trustee to, and the Trustee will thereupon be obligated to (A) pay as and when due all amounts payable to Industrea stockholders holding public shares who have previously validly elected to redeem their public shares pursuant to the Industrea Charter, and (B) immediately thereafter, pay all remaining amounts then available in the trust account in accordance with the Merger Agreement and the Trust Agreement and (b) thereafter, the Trust Account will terminate, except as otherwise provided therein.

Until the first to occur of the Closing or the earlier termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, Industrea will not, and will cause its respective affiliates, directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, consultants and other advisors and representatives not to, directly or indirectly: (a) solicit, initiate, encourage, knowingly facilitate any inquiry or the making of any proposal or offer, (b) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations, (c) furnish to any person any non-public information or grant any person access to its properties, assets, books, contracts, personnel or records, (d) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent, agreement in principal, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other contract, or (e) propose, whether publicly or to any director or stockholder, or agree to do any of the foregoing for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating any proposal, offer, discussions or negotiations; in each case relating to an Industrea Acquisition Proposal. “Industrea Acquisition Proposal” means any offer, proposal, request, inquiry regarding a business combination transaction involving Industrea or any of its subsidiaries or any other transaction involving Industrea or any of its subsidiaries to acquire all or any material part of the business, properties or assets of any other entity or any amount of the capital stock of any other entity, whether by merger, purchase of assets, purchase of equity, tender offer or other similar transactions, other than with CPH. Industrea will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any such negotiations, discussion or other communication, or contracts (to the extent unilaterally terminable by Industrea without the counterparty’s consent and without penalty) (other than with CPH) with respect to the foregoing.

Newco will cause CPH and each subsidiary of CPH to prepare and timely file all tax returns of CPH and each subsidiary of CPH due after the Closing Date (the “Newco Prepared Returns”). To the extent that a Newco Prepared Return relates to a pre-Closing tax period ending on or before the Closing Date or the pre-Closing portion of any taxable period that includes, but does not end on, the Closing Date, such tax return will be prepared in a manner consistent with existing practices and accounting methods of CPH and its subsidiaries, unless otherwise required by law. To the extent that a Newco Prepared Return relates to a pre-Closing tax period ending on or before the Closing Date or the pre-Closing portion of any taxable period that includes, but does not end on, the Closing Date, at least twenty (20) days before filing any Newco Prepared Return, Newco will deliver a draft copy of such Newco Prepared Return to the Holder Representative for the Holder Representative’s review, comment and approval. Newco will cause any comments provided in writing within ten (10) days of receipt of such Newco Prepared Return by the Holder Representative to be reflected in such Newco Prepared Return, to the extent consistent with existing practices and accounting methods of CPH and its subsidiaries and with applicable law.

Newco will promptly notify the Holder Representative of any audit, assessment, investigation or other proceeding relating to taxes of CPH or any subsidiary of CPH for any pre-Closing tax period or Straddle Period (a “Tax Contest”). The Holder Representative will be entitled to control the conduct of any such Tax Contest; provided, however, that Newco, at its sole cost and expense,
116

will have the right to participate in any such Tax Contest, and the Holder Representative will not resolve any such Tax Contest without Newco’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Newco will be entitled to control the conduct of any other Tax Contest.

Following the Closing, except as required by law, Newco will not, and will cause its affiliates (including Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub and (after the Closing) CPH and its subsidiaries) not to, (i) make any tax election that would have a retroactive effective to any pre-Closing tax period or a portion of a Straddle Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement) beginning on or before the Closing Date, (ii) amend any tax return relating to any pre-Closing tax period or a portion of a Straddle Period beginning on or before the Closing Date, (iii) take any action outside the ordinary course of business that would increase the tax liability of CPH or any of its subsidiaries (or the Pre-Closing Holders) with respect to any pre-Closing tax period or a portion of a Straddle Period beginning on or before the Closing Date, or (iv) make any voluntary tax disclosure, tax amnesty filing or other similar filing relating to any pre-Closing tax period or a portion of a Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date.
Mutual Covenants
CPH and the Industrea Parties made certain mutual covenants under the Merger Agreement, including, among others, the following:

Without limiting any covenant contained in the Merger Agreement, Industrea and CPH will each, and will each cause their respective subsidiaries to: (a) use reasonable best efforts to assemble, prepare and file any information (and, as needed, to supplement such information) as may be reasonably necessary to obtain as promptly as practicable all governmental and regulatory consents required to be obtained in connection with the Business Combination, (b) use reasonable best efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third parties that any of Industrea, CPH or their respective affiliates are required to obtain in order to consummate the Business Combination, and (c) take such other action as may reasonably be necessary or as another party may reasonably request to satisfy the Closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement or otherwise to comply with the Merger Agreement and to consummate the Business Combination as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the Termination Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will CPH or any of its subsidiaries be obligated to bear any expense or pay any fee (other than the payment of nominal administrative, processing or similar fees or charges) or grant any concession in connection with obtaining any consents, authorizations or approvals required in order to consummate the Business Combination pursuant to the terms of any contract to which CPH or any of its subsidiaries is a party.

Each of the Holder Representative and Newco will execute and deliver to one another and the Escrow Agent, at the Closing, the Escrow Agreement.

Each party hereto agrees that, from time to time after the Closing Date, it will furnish, or cause to be furnished, upon request to each other such further information, execute and deliver, or cause its affiliates to execute and deliver, such further instruments, and take (or cause its affiliates to take) such other action, as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intents of the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination.

Prior to the Closing, CPH will use reasonable endeavors to obtain from each “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) with respect to CPH or its subsidiaries who may receive payments and/or benefits that could constitute “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) in connection with the Business Combination a waiver of any such payments or benefits, such that after giving effect to all waivers, CPH, its subsidiaries, and, if applicable, Industrea will not have made or provided, nor will be required to make or provide, any payments or benefits that would not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code or that would be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code (the waived payments and benefits waived are collectively referred to as the “Section 280G Waived Payments”). On or prior to the Closing Date, CPH will use commercially reasonable efforts to submit, accompanied by adequate
117

disclosure, for equityholder approval all Section 280G Waived Payments in accordance with the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations thereunder. If equityholder approval is obtained, CPH will promptly, but in all events prior to the Closing, deliver to Industrea evidence reasonably satisfactory to Industrea of such approval. Prior to the Closing Date and prior to solicitation of equityholder approval, CPH will provide Industrea with (i) drafts of any waivers and equityholder disclosure documents relating to the waiver and vote prepared by CPH; and (ii) reasonable documentation regarding the determination of the Section 280G Waived Payments. CPH will consider in good faith any comments made by Industrea prior to obtaining the waivers and soliciting the vote.

Newco agrees that (i) Newco and Concrete Parent will file a consolidated federal income tax return with CPH and its applicable subsidiaries starting on the day following the Closing Date, causing the taxable year of CPH and its applicable subsidiaries to end on the Closing Date for federal income tax purposes, (ii) any gains, income, deductions, losses or other items resulting from any transactions outside the ordinary course of business occurring on the Closing Date, but after the Closing, will not be treated as occurring on the Closing Date and Newco and CPH will utilize (and cause their affiliates to utilize) the “next day rule” in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of foreign, state or local law) for purposes of reporting such items on the applicable tax returns, (iii) no election will be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) (or any other similar provision of foreign, state or local law) for CPH or any of its subsidiaries to ratably allocate items in connection with the Business Combination, and (iv) no election will be made under Section 336 of the Code or Section 338 of the Code with respect to the Business Combination.

For purposes of determining the amount of taxes that are attributable to a pre-Closing tax period (or portion of any Straddle Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement) ending on or prior to the Closing Date) the parties agree as follows:

In the case of property taxes and other similar taxes imposed on a periodic basis for a Straddle Period, the amounts that are attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date will be determined by multiplying the taxes for the entire Straddle Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period; provided, that in the case of any such taxes that are imposed in arrears, the amount of such taxes for the entire Straddle Period will be based on the amount of such taxes that were actually imposed for the immediately preceding period.

In the case of taxes in the form of interest or penalties, all such taxes will be (x) treated as attributable to a pre-Closing tax period (or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date) if and to the extent that such interest or penalties relate to a CPH Prepared Return or otherwise to a breach of the Merger Agreement by the Holder Representative or (prior to the Closing) by CPH and (y) treated as attributable to a post-Closing tax period (or the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date) if and to the extent that such interest or penalties relate to a Newco Prepared Return or otherwise to a breach of the Merger Agreement by Newco or its affiliates (including Industrea, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub or (after the Closing) CPH and its subsidiaries).

In the case of taxes (other than taxes imposed under Section 965 of the Code) imposed on CPH or any subsidiary of CPH or on Newco or any affiliate of Newco, in each case, as a result of income from (a) any entity, plan or arrangement that is treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a partnership, (b) a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Code Section 957, or (c) a “passive foreign investment corporation” within the meaning of Code Section 1297 (a “Flow-Thru Entity”) directly or indirectly owned by CPH that is realized by the Flow-Thru Entity prior to the Closing Date (such income being computed assuming the Flow-Thru Entity had a year that ends on the Closing Date and closed its books), such taxes will be treated as taxes of CPH or a subsidiary of CPH for a pre-Closing tax period.
118


In the case of all other taxes for a Straddle Period (including income taxes, employment taxes, and sales and use taxes) the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date will be determined for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books methodology.”

To the extent reasonably requested in writing (and at the requesting party’s expense), and subject to certain other provisions of the Merger Agreement, Newco, CPH and the Holder Representative will, and will cause their affiliates to, (i) assist in the preparation and timely filing of any tax return of CPH or any subsidiary of CPH, (ii) assist in any audit or other legal proceeding with respect to taxes or tax returns of CPH or any subsidiary of CPH (whether or not a Tax Contest), (iii) make available any information, records, or other documents reasonably relating to any taxes or tax returns of the Pre-Closing Holders, the Holder Representative, CPH or any subsidiary of CPH (except to the extent such information, records or other documents are reasonably deemed to be confidential or privileged), and (iv) provide any information reasonably necessary or reasonably requested to allow the Pre-Closing Holders, the Holder Representative, Newco, CPH, or any subsidiary of CPH to comply with any information reporting or withholding requirements contained in the Code or other applicable laws or to compute the amount of payroll or other employment taxes due with respect to any payment made in connection with the Merger Agreement.

All federal, state, local, non-U.S. transfer, excise, sales, use, ad valorem value added, registration, stamp, recording, property and similar taxes or fees applicable to, imposed upon, or arising out of the transfer of the shares in CPH pursuant to the Merger Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) will be paid one-half by Newco, Concrete Parent and Industrea, on the one hand, and one-half by the Pre-Closing Holders (solely through a claim for indemnification pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of  “Indemnified Taxes”), on the other hand. The parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to the extent reasonably requested to mitigate the amount of any such Transfer Taxes, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Subject to certain exceptions, any tax refund, credit or similar benefit (including any interest paid or credited by a governmental authority with respect thereto) relating to a pre-Closing tax period or a portion of a Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date (a “Tax Refund”) will be for the sole benefit of the Pre-Closing Holders. To the extent that Newco or any of its affiliates (including CPH or any of its subsidiaries) receives or utilizes any Tax Refund, within ten (10) days of receipt of such Tax Refund or the filing of any Tax Return utilizing such Tax Refund (in the form of a credit or offset to taxes otherwise payable), as the case may be, (x) Newco will promptly pay or cause its applicable subsidiaries to pay, through payroll to each Pre-Closing Holder of vested options of CPH, subject to any applicable withholding, an amount equal to the product of (A) the amount of such Tax Refund net of any incremental taxes payable by CPH or any subsidiary as a result of the receipt thereof and net of any other expenses that Newco, CPH, or any subsidiary or any of their affiliates incur (or has or will incur) with respect to such Tax Refund (and related interest), and (B) such Pre-Closing Holder’s Option Pro-Rata Share (as defined in the Merger Agreement) over the sum of all Pre-Closing Holders’ Option Pro-Rata Shares, provided, that to the extent any amounts under this clause (x) would be payable after the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing, no Pre-Closing Holder of vested options will have any legally binding right to such amounts and CPH will have the sole discretion to determine whether to pay any such amounts to any Pre-Closing Holder of vested options and the time(s) and terms and conditions of any such payments, and (y) Newco will pay or cause to be paid to the Exchange Agent (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Fully-Diluted Percentage (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in respect of its shares of CPH capital stock) the excess of  (i) the amount described in the foregoing clause (x)(A), less (ii) the aggregate amount payable to Pre-Closing Holders of vested options pursuant to clause (x) above (disregarding any reduction of the amount payable to Pre-Closing Holders of vested options resulting from the operation of the proviso to such clause). Newco and its affiliates will, and will cause CPH or any of its subsidiaries to, promptly take all actions (including those actions reasonably requested by the Holder Representative) to file for and obtain any Tax Refund. Newco
119

will, upon request, permit the Holder Representative to participate in the prosecution of any proceedings relating to a Tax Refund claim and will not settle or otherwise resolve any such proceeding without the prior written consent of the Holder Representative.

Industrea and CPH will comply with, and will cause of their affiliates and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, consultants and other advisors and representatives (its “Restricted Persons”) to comply with the terms of the confidentiality agreement, dated as of April 17, 2018, between Industrea and CPH. Beginning on the date of the Merger Agreement until the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, neither CPH nor any Restricted Person will waive any right under any other nondisclosure agreement previously entered into by CPH and any other person with respect to the evaluation of the sale of CPH without the prior written consent of Industrea.

Prior to the Closing, Industrea, on the one hand, and CPH, on the other hand, will reasonably promptly notify each other in writing of  (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact or condition that would cause any condition to the Industrea Parties’ obligations or CPH’s obligations to consummate the Business Combination, as applicable, to not be satisfied, (ii) any material actions in connection with the Business Combination commenced or, to the knowledge of Industrea or to the knowledge of CPH, threatened against Industrea, CPH or any of its subsidiaries, as the case may be, or (iii) any written notice or other written material communication from any governmental authority in connection with the Business Combination.

Material Adverse Effect
For purposes of the Merger Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means, any event, change, development, effect, occurrence that has, or would reasonably be expected to (a) with respect to CPH, have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations, assets, liabilities or condition (financial or otherwise) of CPH and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided, however, that in no event will any of the following (or the effect of any of the following), alone or in combination, be deemed to constitute, or be taken into account in determining whether there has been or will be, a “Material Adverse Effect” on or in respect of CPH: (i) any change in law, regulatory policies, accounting standards or principles (including GAAP) or any guidance relating thereto or interpretation thereof, (ii) any change in interest rates or economic, political, business or financial market conditions generally (including any changes in credit, financial, commodities, securities or banking markets), (iii) any change generally affecting any of the industries in which CPH or any of its subsidiaries operates or the economy as a whole, including any change in commodity prices, (iv) announcement or the execution of the Merger Agreement, the pendency or consummation of the Business Combination or the performance of the Merger Agreement, including losses or threatened losses of employees, customers, vendors, distributors or others having relationships with CPH or any of its subsidiaries, (v) the compliance with the terms of the Merger Agreement or any action taken or not taken at the request of any Industrea Party or as required by the Merger Agreement, (vi) any natural disaster, (vii) any acts of terrorism, sabotage, war, the outbreak or escalation of hostilities, weather conditions, change in geopolitical conditions or other force majeure events or (viii) any failure of CPH or its subsidiaries to meet any projections or forecasts, provided, that this clause (viii) will not prevent a determination that any change or effect underlying such failure to meet projections or forecasts has resulted in a Material Adverse Effect (to the extent such change or effect is not otherwise excluded from this definition of Material Adverse Effect) or the fact that the prospective owner of CPH or any of its subsidiaries is Industrea or any affiliate of Industrea; except, in the case of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (vii) above, to the extent that any such change, condition, event or effect has a materially disproportionate and adverse effect on the business of CPH and its subsidiaries relative to other businesses in the industries in which CPH and its subsidiaries operate, taken as a whole, (b) with respect to CPH or its subsidiaries, have a material adverse effect on the ability of CPH or any of its subsidiaries to enter into, to perform its obligations under, or to consummate the transactions contemplated by, the Merger Agreement and (c) with respect to the Industrea Parties, have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Industrea Parties to enter into, to perform their respective obligations under, or to consummate the transactions contemplated by, the Merger Agreement.
Termination
The Merger Agreement may be terminated and the Business Combination abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

by written consent of the Holder Representative and Industrea;

by written notice to CPH from Industrea if:

there is any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of CPH set forth in the Merger Agreement, such that the conditions to obligations of the Industrea Parties to consummate the Business Combination would not be satisfied at the Closing (a “Terminating CPH Breach”), except that, if such Terminating CPH Breach is curable by CPH through the exercise of its reasonable best efforts, then, for a period of up to thirty (30) days after receipt by CPH of notice from Industrea of such breach, but only as long as CPH continues to use its reasonable best efforts to cure such Terminating CPH Breach (the “CPH Cure Period”), such termination will not be effective and the Termination Date will be automatically extended until the end of the CPH Cure Period, and such termination will become effective only if the Terminating CPH Breach is not cured within the
122

CPH Cure Period; provided, however, the Merger Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to the foregoing if, as of such time, any Industrea Party is in material breach of any of its covenants or other obligations under the Merger Agreement;

the Closing has not occurred on or before the Termination Date, unless the Industrea Parties’ willful breach is the primary reason for the Closing not occurring on or before such date; or

the consummation of the Business Combination is permanently enjoined or prohibited by the terms of a final, non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction unless the Industrea Parties’ willful breach is the primary reason for such injunction or prohibition; or

by written notice to Industrea from CPH if:

there is any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Industrea Parties set forth in the Merger Agreement, such that the conditions of CPH to consummate the Business Combination would not be satisfied at the Closing (a “Terminating Industrea Breach”), except that, if any such Terminating Industrea Breach is curable by Industrea through the exercise of its reasonable best efforts, then, for a period of up to thirty (30) days after receipt by Industrea of notice from CPH of such breach, but only as long as Industrea continues to exercise such reasonable best efforts to cure such Terminating Industrea Breach (the “Industrea Cure Period”), such termination will not be effective and the Termination Date will automatically be extended until the end of the Industrea Cure Period, and such termination will become effective only if the Terminating Industrea Breach is not cured within the Industrea Cure Period; provided, however, the Merger Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to the foregoing if, as of such time, CPH is in material breach of any of its covenants or other obligations under the Merger Agreement, or (B)(1) all of the conditions to the obligations of the Industrea Parties to consummate the Business Combination have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) as of the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and (2) the Industrea Parties have failed to consummate the Business Combination within three (3) business days following the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to the Merger Agreement;

the Closing has not occurred on or before the Termination Date, unless CPH’s willful breach is the primary reason for the Closing not occurring on or before such date;

the consummation of the Business Combination is permanently enjoined or prohibited by the terms of a final, non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction unless CPH’s willful breach is the primary reason for such injunction or prohibition;

at any time prior to the receipt of the approval of the Industrea stockholders of the proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus, if the Industrea Board has (i) failed to recommend to the Industrea stockholders that they approve such proposals or failed to include the Industrea Board Recommendation in this proxy statement/prospectus, or (ii) effected a Change in Recommendation; or

If the Industrea stockholders have not approved the proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus at the Special Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, in each case at which a vote on such approval was taken.
Except as otherwise set forth immediately below, in the event of the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to the above, the Merger Agreement will forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of any party to the Merger Agreement or its respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees or stockholders, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence and other than liability of CPH, the Industrea Parties, as the case may be, for any willful and material breach of the Merger Agreement occurring prior to such termination. The provisions of Sections 10.2, Article XI and Article XIII of the Merger Agreement, and the confidentiality agreement between Industrea and CPH will survive any termination of the Merger Agreement.
123

Without limiting or otherwise affecting in any way the remedies available to CPH under the Merger Agreement, in the event of a termination of the Merger Agreement by CPH pursuant to the first, fourth or fifth bullet points above, the Argand Investor will within three (3) business days of the date of such termination, pay to CPH in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by CPH in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby pursuant to the terms of and subject to the limitations set forth in an expense reimbursement letter.
Holder Representative
The parties to the Merger Agreement have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of holders of the CPH capital stock and CPH options for certain limited purposes. The parties of the Merger Agreement have designated PGP Investors, LLC as the initial Holder Representative, and approval of the Merger Agreement by the holders of CPH capital stock will constitute ratification and approval of such designation. The Holder Representative may resign at any time, and the Holder Representative may be removed by the vote of persons which collectively owned more than fifty percent (50%) of the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) immediately prior to the effective time of the CPH Merger (or, in the case of a termination of the Merger Agreement, as of such termination) (the “Majority Holders”). In the event that a Holder Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Holder Representative will be appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Holder Representative. The designation of any person as the Holder Representative is and will be coupled with an interest, and, except as set forth in the Merger Agreement, such designation is irrevocable and will not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, bankruptcy, dissolution or other inability to act of any of the holders of CPH capital stock or any of the holders of CPH options.
The Holder Representative will have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under the Merger Agreement; provided, however, that the Holder Representative will have no obligation to act, except as expressly provided in the Merger Agreement.
Survival; Indemnification
Each of the representations and warranties of CPH and the representations and warranties of the Industrea Parties set forth in the Merger Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date (the “Cut-Off Date”).
Each of the covenants and other agreements of the parties set forth in the Merger Agreement required to be performed or complied with prior to the Closing will survive until the Cut-Off Date. The covenants and agreements of the parties set forth in the Merger Agreement which contemplate performance after the Closing or that otherwise expressly by their terms survive the Closing, will survive in accordance with their terms.
Subject to the limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement, from and after the Closing Date, the Industrea Parties, their respective affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, equity holders, partners, controlling persons, agents, fiduciaries and members (each, an “Industrea Indemnitee”), will be indemnified from the amounts and any interest accrued thereon held in escrow for purposes of indemnification from and against any and all losses arising from any (a) breach of any representations and warranties of CPH contained in Article IV of the Merger Agreement (other than the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.15 of the Merger Agreement), (b)(x) breach of any covenants or agreements set forth in the Merger Agreement that contemplate performance after the Closing or that otherwise expressly by their terms survive the Closing that are made by CPH and required to be performed by CPH prior to the Closing and (y) breach of any Indemnified Covenant (as defined in the Merger Agreement) made by the Holder Representative, (c) any and all unpaid Transaction Expenses and Funded Debt (each as defined in the Merger Agreement), in each case, to the extent not actually included in the calculation of the final Merger Consideration, (d) amounts paid to holders of CPH capital stock who object to the CPH Merger and comply with the provisions of the DGCL concerning the rights of holders of CPH capital stock to dissent from the CPH Merger and require appraisal of their shares of CPH capital stock, including any interest required to be paid thereon, (e) all Indemnified Taxes (as described above) and (f) any
124

claim made by any Pre-Closing Holder that such Pre-Closing Holder is entitled to any amount in respect of such Pre-Closing Holder’s shares of CPH capital stock or options other than (i) the applicable Merger Consideration or Option Consideration as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement and (ii) in respect of such other rights of the Pre-Closing Holders as may be specifically set forth therein.
Subject to the limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement, from and after the Closing Date, the Industrea Parties will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Holder Representative, the Pre-Closing Holders, their respective affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, equity holders, partners, controlling persons, agents, fiduciaries and members (each, an “Equityholder Indemnitee” and, together with the Industrea Indemnitees, collectively “Indemnitees” and each an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all losses arising from any (a) breach of any representations and warranties of any Industrea Party set forth in the Merger Agreement and (b) breach of any Indemnified Covenant made by an Industrea Party or to be performed by an Industrea Party, the Concrete Surviving Corporation or the corporation surviving the Industrea Merger from and after the Closing.
The Merger Agreement provides for the following limitations on indemnification (in addition to such other limitations and qualifications as provided in the Merger Agreement):

The maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable losses that may be recovered by Industrea Indemnitees will be the Indemnity Escrow Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and all indemnifiable losses pursuant to the Merger Agreement will be satisfied solely and exclusively from the then remaining amounts in the indemnity escrow fund.

No indemnification claims for losses will be asserted by any Industrea Indemnitee pursuant to a breach of certain of the representations and warranties of CPH contained in Article IV of the Merger Agreement unless the aggregate amount of losses that would otherwise be payable thereunder exceeds $1,525,000 (the “Deductible”), whereupon the Industrea Indemnitee will be entitled to recover the entire amount of such losses and not only amounts in excess of the Deductible.

No indemnification claims for losses will be asserted by any Equityholder Indemnitee for a breach of representations and warranties of any Industrea Party contained in Article V of the Merger Agreement unless the aggregate amount of losses that would otherwise be payable thereunder exceeds the Deductible, whereupon the Equityholder Indemnitees will be entitled to recover the entire amount of such losses and not only amounts in excess of the Deductible.

In no event will the Pre-Closing Holders be responsible for losses pursuant to Section 12.2(a) of the Merger Agreement in excess of the funds then available in the indemnity escrow fund.

In no event will Industrea’s indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 12.3 of the Merger Agreement exceed $6,100,000.

No party to the Merger Agreement will be obligated to indemnify any other person with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or condition specifically waived in writing by the other party on or prior to the Closing.

Any loss under the Merger Agreement will be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such loss constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

If the Closing Date occurs on or after November 1, 2018, then no indemnification claims for losses will be asserted by any Industrea Indemnitee, and none of the Pre-Closing Holders will be responsible (including from the indemnity escrow fund), for any losses arising from any income taxes with respect to the taxable period of CPH or any of its subsidiaries (or of an Affiliated Group (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of which one or more of them are members) that includes the date of the Merger Agreement; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that if the Closing Date occurs on or before October 31, 2018, then this provision will disregarded and will not apply.
125

Amendments
The Merger Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed in the same manner as the Merger Agreement and which makes reference to the Merger Agreement. The approval of the Merger Agreement by the CPH stockholders will not restrict the ability of CPH’s board of directors to terminate the Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement or to cause CPH to enter into an amendment to the Merger Agreement to the extent permitted under Section 251(d) of the DGCL.

Stockholders Agreement
In connection with the Business Combination, Newco, the Initial Stockholders, the Argand Investor and certain CPH stockholders are expected to enter into the Stockholders Agreement. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement:

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the Founder Shares until the earlier of  (A) one year after the Closing or (B) subsequent to the Closing, (x) if the last sale price of the Newco common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing or (y) following the Closing, the date on which Newco completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Newco’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Newco common stock for cash, securities or other property;

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the private placement warrants until 30 days after the Closing;

each CPH Management Holder (as defined therein) has agreed not to transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such CPH Management Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is (a) the first anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; (b) the second anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; and (c) the third anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing;

The Argand Investor may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by the Argand Investor in exchange for the Industrea common stock issued to it pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on (a) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement does not exceed the Peninsula Threshold (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing, or (b) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement exceeds the Peninsula Threshold, the date that is one year after the Closing.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; and (iii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the
127

foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, Peninsula’s nomination right in respect of such threshold will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
The Stockholders Agreement also provides that Newco will, not later than 90 days after the Closing, file a registration statement covering the Founder Shares, the private placement warrants (including any common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of any such private placement warrants) and the shares of Newco common stock issued to the CPH stockholders at the Closing. In addition, these stockholders will have certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights following the consummation of the Business Combination. Newco will bear certain expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of such rights.
Backstop
Under the Merger Agreement and related agreements, redemptions of public shares in connection with the Business Combination, if any, will be offset in the following manner: (i) the first $106.5 million of redemptions will be offset using proceeds from the Debt Financing and the PIPE Financing; (ii) the next $25.0 million of redemptions will be offset by the sale to the Argand Investor of Industrea common stock at $10.20 per share under the Argand Subscription Agreement; and (iii) any remaining redemptions will be offset by the contribution by Peninsula of additional shares of CPH capital stock to Newco in exchange for additional shares of Newco common stock, in which case the Sponsor will also forfeit to Industrea for cancellation a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares of Industrea common stock issued to Peninsula under this clause (iii) (such that the net dilutive effect of such sale is equivalent to a sale price of  $10.20 per share), plus 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor.
Expense Reimbursement Letter
As a condition to each of CPH’s and Peninsula’s execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement and a Rollover Agreement, respectively, the Argand Investor has agreed, pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Letter, to reimburse CPH for up to $3,000,000 of documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses that are payable to third party service providers engaged by CPH or its subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and Peninsula’s Rollover Agreement and the preparation and negotiation of the Merger Agreement if the Merger Agreement is terminated by CPH pursuant to the termination provisions of the Merger Agreement relating to (i) uncured breaches of any representation, warranty, covenants or agreements or failure to consummate the Business Combination by the Industrea Parties, (ii) the Industrea Board’s failure to recommend approval of the Business Combination or Nasdaq Proposal to Industrea’s stockholders or effecting a change in such recommendation, or (ii) failure to obtain approval of the Business Combination Proposal or the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting.
Pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Letter, at the Rollover Closing (as defined in Peninsula’s Rollover Agreement), the Sponsor has agreed to surrender and Industrea will cancel for no consideration, a number of Founder Shares (or at the Sponsor’s option, shares of Class A common stock) equal to ten percent (10%) of the aggregate number of shares of Newco common stock issued to Peninsula, if any, pursuant to Peninsula’s agreement to offset Redemptions pursuant to its Rollover Agreement.
In addition, in the event Peninsula is required to fund any amount to offset Redemptions in accordance with its Rollover Agreement, the Sponsor has agreed to waive the conversion adjustment set forth in the Industrea Charter with respect to the Founder Shares such that all Founder Shares will be convertible into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. In the event Peninsula is not required to fund any amount to offset Redemptions in accordance with its Rollover Agreement, the conversion adjustment set forth in the Industrea Charter will be limited such that the maximum total number of additional shares of Class A common stock that the holders of the Founder Shares receive as a result of any conversion of the Founder Shares into shares of Class A common stock in excess of the total number of shares of Class A common stock that the holders of Founder Shares would receive as a result of
128

a conversion of the Founder Shares on a one-for-one basis will be the sum of  (i) 1,523,965 plus (ii) 25% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock purchased by the Argand Investor pursuant to its obligation to offset up to $25.0 million of Redemptions under the Argand Subscription Agreement.
Founder Share Conversion
The Industrea Charter provides that the Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the Business Combination at a ratio such that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon completion of Industrea’s IPO plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Business Combination and any private placement-equivalent warrants issued to the Sponsor sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to us). In addition, the conversion of the Founder Shares is subject to the following limitation (i) if there are no redemptions of by our public stockholders, our Sponsor has agreed to forego receiving additional shares upon conversion of the Founder Shares such that the conversion ratio for the Founder Shares shall be no greater than 1:1.0331, and the number of Class A shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Founder Shares in such case would be 5,940,632 Class A shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor) and (ii) pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Letter, if Peninsula is required to offset any Redemptions pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, the Sponsor will (a) forego its right to receive any additional Class A shares upon conversion of the Founder Shares in excess of a one-to-one ratio and (b) forfeit to Industrea for no consideration a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares issued to Peninsula in connection with Peninsula’s obligation to offset Redemptions under its Rollover Agreement, plus 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor. In addition to the foregoing, under the Expense Reimbursement letter, if Peninsula’s obligation to offset Redemptions is not utilized, then the maximum number of Class A shares into which the Founder Shares will convert, if so elected by the Sponsor and after giving effect to the forfeiture of 190,632 Founder Shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor, will be 7,696,078.
Background of the Business Combination
Industrea is a blank check company formed in Delaware on April 7, 2017 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The Business Combination was the result of a thorough search for a potential transaction using the extensive network and investing and operating experience of our management team and Board of Directors. The terms of the Business Combination were the result of thorough negotiations between the representatives of Industrea and CPH.
The following is a brief description of the background of these negotiations, the Business Combination and related transactions.
From the date of our IPO through the execution of the Merger Agreement on September 7, 2018, Industrea considered a number of potential target companies with the objective of consummating an acquisition. Representatives of Industrea contacted, and were contacted by, a number of individuals and entities who offered to present ideas for acquisition opportunities, including financial advisors representing manufacturing and service companies in the industrial sector in the U.S. Industrea compiled a pipeline of high priority potential targets and updated and supplemented such pipeline from time to time. This pipeline was periodically shared, in depth, with the Industrea Board.
During that period, Industrea and representatives of Industrea:

Identified, evaluated and/or contacted 129 potential acquisition targets;

Conducted initial business and financial due diligence or had meaningful engagements with representatives of 32 potential acquisition targets (other than CPH);
129


Provided an initial non-binding indication of interest to 13 potential acquisition targets (other than CPH) or their representatives; and

Submitted a letter of intent and commenced confirmatory due diligence with respect to one potential acquisition target (other than CPH).
Industrea reviewed the potential acquisition targets based on the same criteria discussed below and used in evaluating the Business Combination. These criteria included market-leading middle-market businesses with an enterprise value of approximately $500 million to $1 billion, stable cash flows, sustainable competitive advantages, significant growth potential, and that were sourced as complex proprietary opportunities. Industrea focused on sectors exhibiting secular growth or the potential for a near-term cyclical uptick, and within those sectors, focused only on companies that Industrea management believed would benefit from being a publicly traded company.
Timeline of the Business Combination
Following the completion of the IPO in August 2017, representatives of Industrea engaged in discussions with a number of financial advisors and manufacturing and service companies in the industrial sector in the U.S. with respect to potential acquisition opportunities. After several meetings and consultations with XMS Capital Partners, LLC (“XMS”), Industrea decided to engage XMS as a financial advisor to assist Industrea with sourcing potential acquisition opportunities, given XMS’ understanding of the value proposition of the special purpose acquisition company (or SPAC) vehicle to potential acquisition targets and sellers and its extensive relationships within Industrea’s target industries. On October 18, 2017, Industrea entered into an engagement letter with XMS.
The efforts of Industrea to find a business combination transaction progressed to the point that beginning in October 2017, Industrea engaged in detailed discussions and due diligence with a global manufacturer and distributor (“Company A”). Industrea submitted a non-binding indication of interest to Company A on October 23, 2017 and an updated letter of intent on December 5, 2017. During November 2017 through January 2018, Industrea and certain of its advisors performed business and financial due diligence on Company A. In February 2018, Industrea and Company A terminated discussions for commercial reasons.
On April 12, 2018, a representative of Industrea sent an email to Robert W. Baird & Co. (“Baird”) financial advisor to CPH, to request information about CPH, given the representative of Industrea learned that CPH may fit Industrea’s investment criteria and may be considering strategic alternatives. Baird was known to Industrea to be a prominent financial advisory firm that has been active in the industrial sector.
On April 16, 2018, a representative of Baird called a representative of Industrea to discuss a potential business combination with CPH. Industrea and Baird discussed a potential business combination with CPH because of both parties’ belief that CPH’s business was consistent with Industrea’s stated investment strategy and that the SPAC structure could offer an attractive exit vehicle for CPH stockholders due to, among other reasons, (i) its ability to provide partial liquidity to existing CPH stockholders while still enabling an ongoing ownership interest, (ii) the potential for appreciation in the SPAC stock post-business combination and (iii) providing additional currency (in the form of publicly traded SPAC stock) to facilitate accretive acquisitions for the combined company.
On April 17, 2018, Industrea and CPH executed a confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement. On April 18, 2018, Baird provided Industrea with a confidential information memorandum (including certain target financial information) for the CPH opportunity. In turn, Industrea provided Baird with additional information about Industrea, including its investment strategy and experience of Industrea’s representatives in executing similar transactions.
On April 20, 2018, Tariq Osman, Executive Vice President of Industrea, and another representative of Industrea held a conference call with Baird in order to discuss the merits of a business combination with CPH.
On April 22, 2018, following discussions with Baird and review of the confidential information memorandum for CPH, Industrea submitted a non-binding indication of interest to acquire CPH at an enterprise value of  $550 million, or 7.5x CPH’s estimated fiscal year 2017 Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA of
130

$73.6 million, in a debt-free, cash-free transaction. CPH’s $73.6 million of Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA is an estimate calculated before accounting for the subsequent acquisition of O’Brien Pumping (“O’Brien”), a Colorado-based concrete pumping competitor that CPH acquired in April 2018. For additional information on Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, see the section entitled “— Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.” This valuation reflected the information contained in the confidential information memorandum concerning the CPH’s financial performance and growth opportunities, as well as the expectation that the CPH management team would contribute a significant amount of their sale proceeds to the new publicly traded company.
On April 23, 2018, Industrea and Baird held a conference call to discuss the indication of interest. Baird invited representatives of Industrea to meet with the management team of CPH in order to give Industrea an opportunity to learn more about CPH’s operations, strategy, industry and competitive landscape. Industrea was given access to the virtual data room shortly thereafter.
On May 3, 2018, representatives of Industrea met with members of CPH Management, including its Chief Executive Officer, Bruce Young, its Chief Financial Officer, Iain Humphries, and three other CPH executives, at the Westin Denver International Hotel in Denver, Colorado, for an introductory meeting.
On May 4, 2018, CPH conducted a management presentation at the Westin Denver International Hotel. The parties discussed, among other topics, CPH’s market position, industry dynamics and growth opportunities. During this meeting, Industrea learned additional information about CPH’s acquisition of O’Brien. Industrea was joined by several advisors and representatives from potential lending institutions, including XMS and Stifel Nicolaus (“Stifel”). Several advisors and representatives from potential lending institutions also joined the meeting telephonically, including RSM U.S. LLP (“RSM”), whom Industrea was considering engaging to conduct financial and tax due diligence on CPH.
On May 11, 2018, Industrea held a conference call with members of CPH Management, including Mr. Young and Mr. Humphries, to discuss CPH’s financial projections, the financial performance of O’Brien, and other financial information. Industrea was joined by various advisors and representatives of potential lending institutions.
On May 25, 2018, Industrea held a conference call with members of CPH Management, including Mr. Young and Mr. Humphries, regarding an update on the CPH business, growth opportunities, fleet and other financial information. Industrea was joined by various advisors and representatives of potential lending institutions.
During May and June 2018, and continuing thereafter, Industrea retained various advisors to assist Industrea in conducting its due diligence review of CPH, including Winston & Strawn LLP, as transaction counsel (“Winston”), Marsh as insurance, risk management and wages and benefits advisor (“Marsh”), RSM as financial, accounting and tax advisor, B. Riley FBR, Inc. (“BRFBR”) as capital markets advisor, Exiger as background checks advisor, and Ramboll as environmental due diligence advisor. Industrea also consulted with Aon regarding management compensation and incentive plan matters. In addition, during this time, Industrea shared information about the CPH opportunity with members of its Board of Directors and solicited debt proposals from various potential lending institutions in to explore both a term loan and a bond financing for the transaction.
On May 31, 2018, Industrea received a draft term sheet for a $75 million asset-based revolver from Wells Fargo, an existing lender to CPH, to finance the transaction and to provide liquidity for general corporate purposes and acquisitions post-transaction. Also on May 31, 2018, Industrea received a draft debt commitment letter and term sheet from Credit Suisse Group (“CS”) for a $325 million term loan facility to finance the transaction. Representatives of Industrea continued to negotiate debt financing terms with CS, Wells Fargo and multiple other potential lending institutions from June through August 2018.
On June 10, 2018, following discussions with Baird and review of the confidential information memorandum for CPH, Industrea submitted a non-binding letter of intent to acquire CPH at an enterprise value of  $600 million, or 7.6x CPH’s estimated fiscal year 2017 Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA of $78.5 million, after adjusting for the full-year Adjusted EBITDA contribution of O’Brien, before taking into account potential synergies. This increased valuation reflected the Industrea team’s better understanding of the growth opportunities of CPH, including the continued rapid growth of Eco-Pan, the
131

potential synergies associated with the acquisition of O’Brien, CPH’s strong near-term acquisition pipeline and the attractive discount of the proposed valuation in comparison to publicly traded comparable companies. This initial letter of intent contemplated funded debt of  $325 million at closing, or approximately 4.1x estimated fiscal year 2017 Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, as well as an unfunded asset-based lending facility. For additional information on Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, see the section entitled “— Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.” Industrea also included a revised draft of the Merger Agreement that was previously made available for Industrea’s review in CPH’s virtual data room on May 11, 2018.
On June 13, 2018, Howard D. Morgan, Industrea’s Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Osman met with Brent Stevens, Mary Ellen Kanoff, Matt Homme and Stephen Alarcon of Peninsula (a significant stockholder of CPH), to discuss the SPAC structure and Industrea’s proposal to acquire CPH. The Peninsula representatives were joined by Mr. Young from CPH and John Lanza, a Managing Director from Baird.
As a follow-up item from the June 13, 2018 meeting, on June 14, 2018, Mr. Osman discussed the basic principles of a potential management equity incentive program with Baird. The principles of the contemplated program were designed to give CPH’s management team incentives that vested based on both time and performance hurdles at various increased stock prices. Representatives of Industrea believed that such principles would facilitate significant stock price appreciation post-close. Although Industrea and CPH discussed the principles behind a contemplated incentive plan, they agreed to discuss it further with the proposed compensation committee of the listed company.
Also on June 14, 2018, representatives of Industrea held a conference call with CS to discuss CS’ commitment letter and term sheet for the CPH transaction. Key debt terms discussed included the size of the proposed term loan, pricing and market flex provisions.
On June 15, 2018, Mr. Osman sent a presentation to Mr. Lanza regarding market trends affecting SPAC transactions.
On June 15, 2018, Mr. Morgan and Mr. Osman held a conference call with Messrs. Stevens and Lanza regarding Industrea’s non-binding letter of intent. Baird indicated to Industrea that CPH’s stockholders required an incremental $10 million in consideration, or 0.1x CPH’s estimated Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA of  $78.5 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017, after adjusting for the full-year Adjusted EBITDA contribution of O’Brien, before taking into account potential synergies. For additional information on Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, see the section entitled “— Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.”
Baird and Industrea discussed that this additional consideration would come in the form of additional stock in the publicly traded entity held by the CPH equityholders post-transaction. It was also contemplated that the debt facility would be increased from $325 million to $350 million, Argand Investor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, would underwrite a $27.4 million PIPE investment, and an additional third-party $25 million PIPE would be raised to finance the transaction, in addition to the cash in the trust account and the rollover investment of CPH Management, Peninsula and other CPH stockholders. Industrea verbally agreed to the additional consideration in light of the fact that such increase would be paid in the form of additional common stock while the valuation still remained attractive to Industrea. It was also discussed among Industrea, Baird, CPH and Peninsula that the parties would conduct confidential meetings with certain potential investors to gauge market interest in the potential transaction starting the week of June 25, 2018.
On June 18, 2018, Industrea held an organizational call with Baird, CPH, BRFBR, XMS, Winston, RSM, and Latham & Watkins LLP (“Latham”), legal advisors to Peninsula and CPH, to discuss the process and timeline for the transaction. Among other topics, the process for completing the proxy statement/prospectus was discussed.
On June 19, 2018, Mr. Osman held a call with Mr. Young to address CPH’s follow-up questions regarding the principles of a potential management incentive plan. Creation and finalization of the plan would occur at a future point after discussions with the public entity’s compensation committee and after engaging an advisor to work through the specific details of the plan.

On June 20, 2018, Industrea, Mr. Young, Mr. Humphries and members of the equity research team at BRFBR held a conference call to discuss CPH. BRFBR’s research analysts were given an opportunity to ask questions regarding the investment merits and risks of the business.

On June 21, 2018, Industrea and CPH executed an agreement for a limited amount of expense reimbursement for Industrea in order to progress Industrea’s due diligence investigation of CPH. The limited expense reimbursement was tied to the achievement of certain transaction milestones, including progressing due diligence, consulting with potential PIPE investors and negotiating a merger agreement, and was based on the revised CPH valuation of  $610 million.

Such investors were identified and targeted by Industrea’s financial advisors due to either their existing significant ownership stake in Industrea or their familiarity with the SPAC structure and knowledge of the construction equipment and services sector. Meetings were held with those targeted investors who agreed to customary wall-crossing procedures, including with respect to confidentiality.
On June 22, 2018, due to the relationship that had been developed with BRFBR throughout Industrea’s IPO as well as its status as a prominent investment bank with significant experience in SPAC transactions, Industrea entered into an engagement letter with BRFBR to serve as Industrea’s non-exclusive capital markets advisor with authority to contact existing stockholders of Industrea and other potential investors agreed upon with Industrea and to share information regarding the potential acquisition of CPH.

Independent Director Oversight
The Industrea Board is comprised of a majority of independent directors who are not affiliated with our Sponsor and its affiliates. In connection with the business combination, our independent directors, David A.B. Brown, Thomas K. Armstrong, Jr., David G. Hall, Brian Hodges and Gerard F. Rooney, took an active role in evaluating the proposed terms of the Business Combination. As part of their evaluation of the Business Combination, our independent directors were aware of the potential conflicts of interest with our Sponsor and their affiliates that could arise with regard to the proposed terms of the Merger Agreement. Our independent directors reviewed and considered these interests during the negotiation of the Business Combination and in evaluating and unanimously approving, as members of Industrea Board, the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination.
The Industrea Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination
Before approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and determining that the Business Combination is in the best interests of Industrea and its stockholders, the Industrea Board reviewed the results of management’s due diligence, which included:

research on comparable companies and transactions within the specialty rental and specialty waste segments;

research on the commercial, infrastructure and residential construction sectors within the U.S. and the U.K., including industry trends, cycles and other industry factors;

research on concrete placement industry trends, cycles, operating cost projections and other industry factors;

review of CPH’s material contracts, environmental matters, intellectual property matters, labor matters and other legal due diligence;

consultation with Industrea’s management and legal and financial advisors and industry experts;

commercial and growth strategy, operational and performance improvement, financial, tax, legal, environmental, risk and insurance, employee benefits and accounting due diligence; and

a financial model prepared by CPH, and on which we based our projections included below in this proxy statement/prospectus.
The Industrea Board considered a wide variety of factors in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination. In light of the complexity of those factors, the Industrea Board, as a whole, did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors it took into account in reaching its decision. Individual members of the Industrea Board may have given different weight to different factors.
In the prospectus for our IPO, we identified the following general criteria and guidelines that we believed would be important in evaluating prospective target businesses.
137

1.
Middle-Market Business.   We intended to seek candidates with an enterprise value of approximately $500 million to $1 billion, determined in the sole discretion of our officers and directors according to reasonable accepted valuation standards and methodologies. We believe that the middle-market segment provides the greatest number of opportunities for investment, and it is where we believe we have the strongest network to identify opportunities.
2.
Market Leaders with Stable Cash Flows.   Our management team intended to target companies with strong existing market positions, which we believe is a key determinant of the stability, defensibility and predictability of a company’s cash flow. Our management team intended to target established businesses that are, or that it believes have the potential to become, regional, national or global market leaders within their specific industry niche. Based on our experience, such companies generally have a long track record of steady and growing cash flows, with a history of performing well through various market conditions. We also intended to target businesses that are supported by long term secular growth trends where performance is not principally driven by the timing of industry cycles. Our management team has historically and frequently been involved in investments in companies in our target sector with top positions in their respective market niches.
3.
Sustainable Competitive Advantages.   We intended to target businesses that have sustainable competitive advantages that would be challenging for a competitor to replicate. Factors contributing to sustainable competitive advantages may include: (i) proprietary technology or trade secrets; (ii) broad distribution networks; (iii) well-established brand names; (iv) territorial exclusivity; (iv) diverse and stable customer and supplier base; (v) low-cost production capability; (vi) customer habit/share of mind (particularly in industries where customers are slow to change); (vii) a lack of available substitutes and/or high search or switching costs; (viii) network effects; and (ix) limited exposure to technological obsolescence and cyclicality. Our management team expects to target businesses that have clearly demonstrated an ability to defend and grow their market positions over time as a result of one or more of these sustainable competitive advantages.
4.
Significant Growth Potential.   Our management team has a core philosophy that long-term value is driven by sustainable earnings growth based on superior management and systems, and investment in high-return growth initiatives. Our management team did not seek to benefit solely from the timing of industry, equity, or debt market cycles. It is not enough for a business to simply have strong market leadership, a history of stable cash flows, and unique and sustainable competitive advantages. Our management team intended to target companies that we believed will benefit from secular growth and where it has also developed a unique and differentiated angle to actively create value for investors. Our management team also intended to seek opportunities to accelerate a potential target company’s growth through assisting with the development of the business strategy around geographic expansion, new products, high-return capital expenditure projects and acquisitions. We also sought opportunities to improve the margins and asset intensity of a potential target business.

Complex Proprietary Opportunities.   Our management team has a track record of completing transactions that involve an element of complexity. Our management team’s focus on complex situations that require creative solutions was expected to lead to less competitive transactions where we can combine with attractive businesses at reasonable valuations. Importantly, while our management team was focused on complex situations as a means to find attractively-priced transactions, we did not intend to pursue turnarounds or situations that do not lend themselves to the public markets. Our management team has a history of leveraging its strategic relationships with its network of over 100 current and former executives, entrepreneurs, consultants, and public sector leaders (“Senior Executive Advisors”) to augment its due diligence and develop a unique perspective and comfort with the issues faced in such complex opportunities. We anticipated a number of different complex transaction situations where we may source a potential target, which may include:
a.
Corporate Carve-Outs.   Our management team intended to target corporate carve-outs, or acquisitions of non-core divisions or subsidiaries of large corporations that we believe would
138

function more effectively if structured as an independent entity managed by a focused, stand-alone management team. Our management team has developed a significant level of experience with, and reputation for, being able to conduct successful corporate carve-outs.
b.
Managing Global Operations.   One area of complexity in particular that is becoming increasingly relevant to the middle market and in which our management team is uniquely positioned to support are the challenges around globalization. Customers across nearly all end markets are increasingly global in their footprints, which requires manufacturers to supply their products and services globally. We believe that manufacturers now must be highly coordinated across large geographic areas and maintain high levels of operational coordination and control. As a result, the trend of U.S. middle market businesses dealing with the complexities of being global has increased significantly. Situations involving the expansion of products and services internationally, procurement of materials, manufacturing and personnel from low-cost countries, and development of regional and national players into global leaders are all examples of this type of complexity. We believe that our management team’s deep experience with global businesses, and in particular our strategic relationships with several of the Senior Executive Advisors with experience running multinational corporations, makes us well qualified to help such middle market companies manage through the complexity arising from globalization and leverage their global footprints as a competitive advantage. Our management team also actively searched for U.S. regional or national leaders with opportunities to expand globally. Our management team sought to leverage its international business experience and networks to assist management teams in navigating the complexities that come with operating on a global scale.
c.
Family-Owned Businesses.   Our management team has substantial experience with family-owned companies with no obvious succession plan, including assisting such companies with the transition to a more professionalized organization with enhanced management and systems.
6.
Strong Management Teams.   We targeted businesses that have strong, experienced management teams. In addition to assisting with potential management additions, our management team may seek to optimize the management team of a potential target business by introducing independent board members (often from the network of Senior Executive Advisors) with relevant insight and experience.
7.
Benefit from Being a Public Company.   We intended to pursue a business combination with a company that will benefit from being publicly traded and can effectively utilize the broader access to capital and public profile that are associated with being a publicly traded company.
In considering the Business Combination, the Industrea Board concluded that CPH met all of the above criteria. In particular, the Industrea Board considered the following positive factors, although not weighted or presented in any order of significance:

Leading Middle-Market Business at Attractive Valuation.   CPH is the largest concrete pumping service provider by fleet size nationally in the U.S. and U.K. as well as regionally in each of the markets it operates. In addition, its Eco-Pan division is the largest concrete washout management provider by fleet size in its niche and has a proprietary solution that CPH believes is superior to all alternatives in the market. We believe that the Merger Consideration reflects an estimated enterprise value (estimated market value, plus debt, less cash) of  $695.6 million, which represents 7.2 times CPH’s projected Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2019 of $97.1 million. See the section entitled “—Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.” This represents a meaningful discount to the following average multiples for publicly traded comparable companies: approximately 9.7x for specialty rental companies and approximately 11.8x for specialty waste services. The estimated enterprise value represents 9.7 times CPH’s Adjusted EBITDA less Total Capital Expenditures of approximately $25.7 million for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2019. This represents a meaningful discount to the following
139

average multiples for publicly traded comparable companies: approximately 16.8x for specialty rental companies and approximately 17.2x for specialty waste services. In addition, the purchase price of approximately $610 million falls directly within Industrea’s target range of  $500 million to $1 billion.

Note: CPH metrics are pro forma for the financial impact of the April 2018 O’Brien acquisition. Comparable valuations have used earnings forecast for the year ending in October (which is CPH’s fiscal year end).
Specialty Rental includes AMERCO, Brambles, Civeo, Finning International, McGrath RentCorp, Mobile Mini and WillScott.
Specialty Waste Services includes Clean Harbors, Covanta, Ecolab, Stericycle, US Ecology and Waste Management.

Proven Track Record and Strong Management Team.   CPH is led by a management team that has been active in the concrete pumping business since the 1980s and pioneered the creation of Eco-Pan (Bruce Young) as well as Camfaud (Tony Faud). Management views CPH as the acquirer of choice by maintaining frequent dialogue and strong relationships with local competitors. CPH has proven its ability to execute on that thesis as evidenced by its over 45 accretive acquisitions since 1983. Management’s ability as operators is evidenced by the improvement in the margins of its acquisitions. CPH will generally purchase businesses for less than 4.5 times Adjusted EBITDA on a pre-synergy basis, and after improving margins via methods such as increasing utilization and reducing purchasing costs, the purchase multiple on a post-synergy basis falls to below 3.5 times Adjusted EBITDA.

Attractive Margins and Cash Flow Generation.   The scale and route density that CPH has, coupled with the value it provides to customers, allows CPH to target projected Adjusted EBITDA margins of approximately 34.8% for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2019, which compare favorably to comparable publicly traded specialty rental companies (with an average of approximately 27.7% Adjusted EBITDA margins) and specialty waste services (with an average of approximately 22.6% Adjusted EBITDA margins). On an Adjusted EBITDA less Capital Expenditures basis, CPH expects to achieve margins of 25.6% in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2019, which again compares favorably to specialty rental companies (with an average of approximately 15.7% margins) and specialty waste services (with an average of approximately 15.6% margins).

Strong Competitive Position.   CPH is the largest concrete pumping service provider nationally in the U.S. and U.K. as well as regionally in each of the markets it operates. CPH management estimates it is more than four times the size of the next largest provider in the U.S. and approximately 10 times the size of the next largest provider in the U.K. based on fleet size. The scale of CPH allows it to better serve customers by having availability (which it can also flex by shifting underutilized assets from other markets), expertise that results in better safety and faster performance, and a complete offering (given its range of equipment and Eco-Pan offering) that makes for a more simple vendor interaction.

Opportunity for Significant Revenue and Earnings Growth.   CPH’s Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue is expected to increase from $199.2 million in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2015 to a forecasted $256.6 million in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2018, representing a CAGR of 8.8%. During the same period, CPH’s Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA is expected to increase from $66.5 million in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2015 to a forecast $87.3 million in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2018, representing a CAGR of 9.5%. For information on how Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are calculated, see the section entitled “— Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.” We believe that CPH will continue to grow for a number of reasons including: secular trends toward greater levels of concrete pumping given its superior value proposition, sharing in the value that it creates for customers via price increases, improved profitability from growing route density, increased penetration of its Eco-Pan offering in the U.S. and a launch of the offering in the U.K., continued organic growth and share gain, and expansion into new geographies.

Benefits from Being a Public Company.   As mentioned above, CPH has a long and successful track record of completing acquisitions. We believe that CPH has significant growth opportunities in the U.S. and internationally. The access to capital, both in the form of debt and equity, that the post-combination company will have as a public entity will allow CPH to continue to execute on its strategy of expansion via mergers and acquisitions.

Financial Terms of the Merger Agreement.   The Industrea Board considered the total mix of cash Merger Consideration and Newco common stock consideration to be issued to CPH stockholders in connection with their rollover and the fact that the consideration to be paid in the Business Combination is subject to adjustment depending on, among other items, the aggregate amount of cash available to pay the Merger Consideration, and also noted that the value of the Newco common stock to be paid to CPH’s existing stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination could be significantly more or less than the $10.20 implied value per share immediately prior to the announcement of the entry into the Merger Agreement based on any fluctuations in the market price of Industrea common stock. The Industrea Board took note of the course of negotiations between the parties in arriving at the amount of Merger Consideration to be paid in the Business Combination.
141


Pro Forma Ownership.   The Industrea Board took note of the fact that following completion of the Business Combination and if there are no redemptions, Industrea’s existing stockholders, including our Sponsor, and their affiliates will retain a significant ownership interest. In particular, the Industrea Board took note of the fact that CPH Management is rolling over a significant portion of their sale proceeds.

Other Terms and Conditions of the Merger Agreement.   The Industrea Board considered the other terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, including the nature and scope of the closing conditions, the likelihood of obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals, representations and warranties of CPH and covenants.
Industrea’s Board of Directors considered various industry and financial data, including certain financial analyses developed by Industrea Management in its financial model, in evaluating the consideration to be paid to the Sellers. Industrea’s management collectively has decades of experience in the private equity business in constructing financial models, conducting valuations of businesses, and developing and evaluating financial projections. All of the members of Industrea’s management are affiliated with Argand, a private equity firm specializing in acquiring market-leading middle-market manufacturing and services businesses in the industrial sector. Although Industrea’s board of directors did not seek a third party valuation in connection with the Business Combination, the board of directors considered valuation information regarding CPH, including industry comparisons of the enterprise values of CPH and other specialty rental and specialty waste services businesses, comparisons of revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and capital expenditures, projections for the fiscal year ending October 2018 and October 2019, the growth outlook for the markets that CPH serves, the experience of CPH’s management team, free cash flow characteristics, and ratios of total enterprise value to Adjusted EBITDA.
Industrea’s Board also considered certain historical and projected financial information prepared by management, in collaboration with CPH’s management and representatives, described below under “Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.”
The management and board of directors of Industrea determined that the $610 million proposed enterprise value for CPH was appropriate based on its evaluation of CPH’s profitability, free cash flow, growth prospects and the implied trading multiples of other specialty rental and specialty waste services companies. Based on Industrea’s review of equity research reports written on companies in the sectors mentioned above, the primary valuation metrics used by such equity analysts are ratios of total enterprise value to Adjusted EBITDA. Typically, these metrics are evaluated on the basis of one-year forward’s estimated results. Industrea’s management determined that the most relevant publicly traded specialty rental companies are AMERCO, Brambles, Civeo, Finning International, McGrath RentCorp, Mobile Mini and WillScott, and the most relevant specialty waste services companies are Clean Harbors, Covanta, Ecolab, Stericycle, US Ecology and Waste Management.

Industrea’s management believes that CPH is likely to be considered to be in one or more of these categories by potential investors based on its financial model. The following is the financial information of these companies and CPH considered by Industrea’s management:

Assumes no redemptions from Industrea public shareholders.
For additional information on Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, see the section below entitled “— Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.”
The Industrea Board also gave consideration to the following negative factors related to CPH’s business (which are more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section of this proxy statement/prospectus), although not weighted or presented in any order of significance:

The risk that a slowdown in the economic recovery or a decrease in general economic activity could have material adverse effects on CPH’s revenues and operating results;

The risk that seasonality or adverse weather may affect CPH;

The risk that the unexpected periods of decline could result in an overall decline in CPH’s available cash flows;

The risk that competition may increase, which could have a material adverse effect on CPH’s business;

The risk that CPH cannot obtain equipment from key suppliers for its business;

The risk that the average age of CPH’s fleet may increase, resulting in CPH’s offerings potentially being less attractive to potential customers and CPH’s operating costs potentially increasing, impacting its results of operations;

The risk that the costs of new equipment CPH uses in its fleet may increase, requiring it to spend more for replacement equipment or preventing it from procuring equipment on a timely basis;

The risk that CPH may not sell its used equipment at the prices or in the quantities it expects;

The risk that liability claims may exceed the level of CPH’s insurance or not be covered at all;
143


The risk that the significant operating risks and hazards of CPH’s business could result in personal injury or damage or destruction to property, which could result in losses or liabilities to CPH;

The risk that potential acquisitions and expansions into new markets may result in significant transaction expense or expose CPH to risks associated with entering new markets and integrating new or acquired operations;

The risk CPH may not realize the anticipated synergies and cost savings from acquisitions;

The risk that changes in law, regulations, government contract provisions, or other legal requirements, or CPH’s material failure to comply with any of them, can increase CPH’s costs and have other negative impacts on its business;

The risk that CPH is required to incur compliance or remediation costs for environmental and safety regulations that are not currently anticipated, in which case CPH’s liquidity and operating results could be materially and adversely affected;

The risk that a deterioration in relations with CPH’s employees, labor shortages or increases in labor costs may adversely affect CPH’s business, financial condition and results of operations and its collective bargaining agreements, or CPH’s relationship with its union-represented employees could disrupt its ability to serve its customers, lead to higher labor costs or the payment of withdrawal liability in connection with multiemployer plans;

The risk that labor relations matters at construction sites where CPH provides services may result in increases in its operating costs, disruptions in its business and decreases in its earnings;

The risk that CPH could determine that its goodwill has become impaired and that CPH may incur impairment charges, which would negatively impact CPH’s operating results;

Turnover of members of CPH’s management, staff and pump operators and CPH’s ability to attract and retain key personnel may affect its ability to efficiently manage its business and execute its strategy;

The risk that CPH’s credit facilities may limit the business' financial and operating flexibility;

The risk CPH may be unable to obtain capital as required, resulting in a decrease in CPH’s revenue and cash flows;

The risk that CPH may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of its indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy its obligations under applicable debt instruments, which may not be successful;

The risk CPH may be unable to collect on contracts with customers and its operating results would be adversely affected;

The risk that If CPH is unable to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or CPH’s internal control over financial reporting is not effective, the reliability of CPH’s financial statements may be questioned and CPH’s stock price may suffer;

The risk that CPH has a disruption in its information technology systems which limits its ability to effectively monitor and control its operations and adversely affects its operating results, or experiences unauthorized access to customer information on CPH’s systems that could adversely affect its relationships with its customers or result in liability;

The risk that fuel costs fluctuate or supplies of fuel are reduced, which could harm its business;

The risk that CPH does not have access to its branch facilities to service its customers and maintain and store its equipment;

The risk that recently completed acquisitions may divert CPH’s resources from other aspects of its business and require it to incur additional debt, which may subject CPH to additional and different regulations;
144


The risk that CPH is adversely affected by recent developments relating to the United Kingdom’s referendum vote in favor of leaving the European Union;

The risk that fluctuations in foreign currencies affect CPH’s business operations due to a material portion of its business being conducted in currency other than U.S. dollars; and

The risk that recently enacted U.S. tax legislation may adversely affect its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.
The Industrea Board concluded that these risks could be managed or mitigated by Industrea or were unlikely to have a material impact on the Business Combination or Industrea, and that, overall, the potentially negative factors or risks associated with the Business Combination were outweighed by the potential benefits of the Business Combination to Industrea and its stockholders. The Industrea Board realized that there can be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as disclosed in the foregoing reasons. The foregoing discussion of the material factors considered by the Industrea Board is not intended to be exhaustive, but does set forth the principal factors considered by the Industrea Board.
Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information
In April 2018, CPH provided Industrea with its internally prepared historical and projected financial statements for the fiscal years ending October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2019. The projected financial information was not prepared with a view towards compliance with the published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information. These projections were prepared solely for internal use, and capital budgeting and other management purposes, and are subjective in many respects and therefore susceptible to varying interpretations and the need for periodic revision based on actual experience and business developments, and were not intended for third-party use, including by investors or holders. You are cautioned not to rely on the projections in making a decision regarding the transaction, as the projections may be materially different than actual results.
The projections reflect numerous assumptions including assumptions with respect to general business, economic, market, regulatory and financial conditions and various other factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond CPH’s control, such as the risks and uncertainties contained in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” The projections reflect the consistent application of the accounting policies of CPH and should be read in conjunction with the accounting policies included in Note 2 to the accompanying historical audited consolidated financial statements of CPH included in this proxy statement/prospectus.
The financial projections are forward-looking statements that are based on growth assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond CPH’s control. While all projections are necessarily speculative, CPH believes that the prospective financial information covering periods beyond 12 months from its date of preparation carries increasingly higher levels of uncertainty and should be read in that context. There will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially greater or materially less than those contained in the projections. The inclusion of the projections in this proxy statement/prospectus should not be regarded as an indication that CPH or its representatives considered or currently consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events, and reliance should not be placed on the projections.
The projections were requested by, and disclosed to, Industrea for use as a component in its overall evaluation of CPH, and are included in this proxy statement/prospectus because they were provided to the Industrea Board for its evaluation of the Business Combination. Following the provision of such projection, Industrea’ management team collaborated with CPH management to create certain pro forma historical and projected information set forth in the table below. The pro forma historical and projected financial information gives pro forma effect to (i) CPH’s acquisition on November 17, 2016 of Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited, and Premier Concrete Pumping Limited, which each also owned 50% of the stock of South Coast Concrete Pumping Limited (collectively “Camfaud” and the acquisition, the “Camfaud Acquisition”), as further adjusted to reflect a constant a currency exchange rate, and (ii) CPH’s
145

acquisition on April 20, 2018 of substantially all assets of Richard O’Brien Companies, Inc., O’Brien Concrete Pumping-Arizona, Inc., O’Brien Concrete Pumping-Colorado, Inc. and O’Brien Concrete Pumping, LLC (collectively, “O’Brien” and the acquisition, the “O’Brien Acquisition”).
Neither Industrea nor CPH has warranted the accuracy, reliability, appropriateness or completeness of the projections to anyone. Neither Industrea nor CPH nor any of their representatives has made or makes any representation to any person regarding the ultimate performance of CPH compared to the information contained in the pro forma historical and projected information, and none of them intends to or undertakes any obligation to update or otherwise revise such information to reflect circumstances existing after the date when made or to reflect the occurrence of future events in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projections are shown to be in error. Accordingly, they should not be looked upon as “guidance” of any sort. CPH will not refer back to these forecasts in its future periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act.
The following pro forma historical and projected financial information was prepared by Industrea and CPH. CPH’s independent registered public accounting firm (BDO USA, LLP), has not examined, compiled or otherwise applied procedures with respect to the accompanying financial information presented below and, accordingly, expresses no opinion or any other form of assurance on it. The BDO USA, LLP audit report included in this proxy statement/prospectus relates to historical financial information of CPH as of October 31, 2017 and 2016 and for each of the three years in the period ended October 31, 2017. It does not extend to the following pro forma historical and projected financial information and should not be read as if it does.

The pro forma historical and projected financial information set forth in the table above was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or with a view toward complying with the guidelines established by the SEC with respect to prospective financial information, but, in the view of Industrea and CPH, was prepared on a reasonable basis, reflects the best available estimates and judgments, and presents, to the best of Industrea’s and CPH’s management knowledge and belief, the expected future financial performance of CPH. However, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and readers of this proxy statement/prospectus are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information. Neither CPH’s independent registered public accounting firm, nor any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined, or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information contained herein, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the prospective financial information.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP finanancial measures. Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue is defined as GAAP revenue after giving pro forma effect to (i) the Camfaud Acquisition on November 17, 2016, as further adjusted to reflect a constant a currency exchange rate, and (ii) the O’Brien Acquisition on April 20, 2018. Pre-acquisition financial results of Camfaud and O’Brien are labeled “pre-acquisition,” in the table
146

below. Post-acquisition financial results of Camfaud and O’Brien are consolidated within CPH’s financial statements for periods following the date of acquisition. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below), as further adjusted to give pro forma effect to the acquisitions of Camfaud and O’Brien as discussed above, to reflect a constant currency exchange rate and to reflect the impact of non-recuring, non-operational and other normalizing expense adjustments. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA divided by Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue. Free cash flow is defined as Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA minus Pro Forma Capital Expenditures (CPH capital expenditures after giving pro forma effect to the acquisitions of Camfaud and O’Brien, as discussed above).
CPH calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking GAAP net income and adding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, transaction expenses, gain (loss) on sale of assets, non-recurring adjustments, management fees and other one-time and non-operational expenses. CPH believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to CPH’s financial condition and results of operations. CPH uses this non-GAAP measure to compare its performance to prior periods for trend analyses, determining incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. Adjusted EBITDA is used in quarterly financial reports prepared for CPH’s management and board of directors. CPH believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating CPH’s ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing CPH’s financial measures with competitors who also present similar non-GAAP financial measures.
The following table reconciles CPH’s historical reported revenue, net income and EBITDA to Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue, Pro Forma Net Income and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA. A reconciliation of non-GAAP projected information to their corresponding GAAP measures has not been provided due to the lack of predictability regarding the various reconciling items such as provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, which are expected to have a material impact on these measures and are out of CPH and Industrea’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable efforts. You should review CPH’s audited financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/​prospectus, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate CPH’s business. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and other non-GAAP measures differently, and therefore CPH’s Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow and other non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

execution of a definitive agreement for an initial business combination. As of the date of the execution of the Merger Agreement, the balance of the funds in the trust account was approximately $229.5 million (excluding $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting commissions) and 80% thereof represents approximately $183.6 million. In reaching its conclusion on the 80% asset test, the Industrea Board used a fair market value of  $610.0 million for CPH, which was implied based on the terms of the Business Combination agreed to by parties in negotiating the Merger Agreement. This fair market value was implied based on adding (i) the $325.0 million common equity value consideration to the current CPH stockholders, (ii) the $260.0 million of estimated net debt at closing and (iii) CPH’s transaction expenses of  $25.0 million.
The parties to the Merger Agreement considered factors such as CPH’s historical financial results, the future growth outlook and financial plan, as well as valuations and trading of publicly traded companies in similar and adjacent sectors. The Board determined that the consideration being paid in the merger, which amount was negotiated at arms-length, was fair to and in the best interests of Industrea and its stockholders and appropriately reflected CPH’s value. The board based this conclusion on (i) a comparison of  (a) the ratio of enterprise value over projected Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2019 of 7.2x for CPH, based on a $695.6 million anticipated enterprise value of CPH, to (b) the average enterprise values over projected Adjusted EBITDA for publicly traded comparable companies of approximately 9.7x for specialty rental companies and approximately 11.8x for specialty waste services for the year ending October 31, 2019, and (ii) a range of qualitative and quantitative factors such as CPH’s leadership position, management experience, Adjusted EBITDA growth, strong operating metrics, and future growth opportunities.
The Industrea Board determined that because of the financial skills and background of its directors, it was qualified to conclude that the acquisition of CPH met the 80% requirement. Based on the fact that the $610.0 million fair market value of CPH as described above, is in excess of the threshold of approximately $183.6 million, representing 80% of the balance of the funds in the trust account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions), the Industrea Board determined that the fair market value of CPH was substantially in excess of 80% of the funds in the trust account and that the 80% test was met.
Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination
In considering the recommendation of the Industrea Board to vote in favor of the Business Combination, stockholders should be aware that our Sponsor and certain members of the Industrea Board and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other stockholders generally. The Industrea Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination, and in recommending to stockholders that they approve the Business Combination. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination.
These interests include, among other things:

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed not to redeem any of the Founder Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $25,000 for the Founder Shares, which in certain circumstances could convert into up to 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $78,630,498.70 based on the closing price of our public shares on Nasdaq on September 7, 2018, but, given the restrictions on such shares, we believe such shares have less value;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019;

the fact that our Initial Stockholders paid an aggregate of  $11,100,000 for 11,100,000 private placement warrants and that such private placement warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by August 1, 2019;
149


the right of our Initial Stockholders to receive shares of Newco common stock in connection with the Business Combination and shares of Newco to be issued to our Initial Stockholders upon exercise of their private placement warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

the fact that, at the option of our Sponsor, any amounts outstanding under any loan made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor to Industrea in an aggregate amount up to $1,500,000, may be converted into warrants to purchase Newco common stock following the Business Combination;

if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.20 per public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the trust account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

the anticipated continuation of at least six of our existing directors, Messrs. David A.B. Brown, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Howard D. Morgan and Tariq Osman and Ms. Heather L. Faust as directors of the post-combination company;

the continued indemnification of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

the fact that our Sponsor, officers and directors may not participate in the formation of, or become a director or officer of, any other blank check company until we (i) have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or (ii) fail to complete an initial business combination by August 1, 2019.
These interests may influence our directors in making their recommendation that you vote in favor of the approval of the Business Combination.
Potential Purchases of Public Shares
In connection with the stockholder vote to approve the proposed Business Combination, our Sponsor, directors or officers or their respective affiliates may privately negotiate transactions to purchase shares from stockholders who would have otherwise elected to have their shares redeemed in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules for a per-share pro rata portion of the trust account. None of our directors or officers or their respective affiliates will make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller or during a restricted period under Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Such a purchase would include a contractual acknowledgement that such stockholder, although still the record holder of our shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights, and would include a contractual provision that directs such stockholder to vote such shares in a manner directed by the purchaser. In the event that our Sponsor, directors or officers or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling stockholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. Any such privately negotiated purchases may be effected at purchase prices that are in excess of the per-share pro rata portion of the trust account. The purpose of such purchases would be to increase the likelihood of obtaining stockholder approval of the Business Combination.
Total Shares to be Issued in the Business Combination
It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, assuming no public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, taking into account (a) the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis and (b) all “in-the-money” options that will be issued at the closing of the Business Combination to certain current and former members of CPH Management: (i) Industrea’s public stockholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 52% in Newco; (ii) our Initial Stockholders and the Argand Investor
150

will own approximately 25% in Newco; (iii) CPH Management will own approximately 9% (based on the most recent estimated Rollover amounts for members of CPH Management, which may increase at Closing in accordance with the Rollover Agreements); (iv) Nuveen will own approximately 6% in Newco; (v) the Lead Common Investor will own approximately 4%; (vi) Peninsula will own approximately 2%; and (vii) the former CPH employee shareholders will hold approximately 2% in Newco. The ownership percentages with respect to Newco following the Business Combination does not take into account (a) warrants to purchase common stock that will remain outstanding immediately following the Business Combination or (b) the issuance of any shares upon completion of the Business Combination under the Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C, but does include Founder Shares. Prior to the completion of the Industrea Merger, the outstanding Founder Shares are expected to convert into Class A common stock in accordance with the Industrea Charter, subject to the limitations (i) set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter and (ii) that, in the event that there are no redemptions by public stockholders, the Sponsor has agreed that the conversion ratio for the Founder Shares shall be no greater than 1:1.0331, such that the number of Class A shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Founder Shares in such case would be 5,940,632 Class A shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). Under the Expense Reimbursement Letter, if Peninsula is not required to offset Redemptions under its Rollover Agreement, then to the extent that the Argand Investor’s $25 million backstop obligation is utilized, the Sponsor will be entitled to receive up to an additional 2,136,710 shares of Class A common stock upon conversion of the Founder Shares (190,632 of which would be forfeited in connection with the Subscription Agreement with the Lead Common Investor). If Peninsula is required to offset any Redemptions, then the Founder Shares will convert on a one-for-one basis and the Sponsor will be required to forfeit a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares issued to Peninsula in connection with its agreement to offset Redemptions, plus 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor. As a result, after giving effect to all forfeitures, Industrea expects to issue between 4,436,275 and 7,696,078 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the conversion of the Founder Shares. If the actual facts are different than these assumptions, the percentage ownership numbers set forth above will be different. In particular, if public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, additional shares could be issued to the Argand Investor and Peninsula pursuant to the Backstop and to the Sponsor pursuant to the conversion of Founder Shares (subject to the limitations set forth in the Expense Reimbursement Letter).

Debt Financing
In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Concrete Merger Sub, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newco that will merge with and into CPH in the CPH Merger, has entered into the Debt Commitment Letters with the Debt Commitment Parties, pursuant to which (i) CS AG has agreed to make available to the combined company at the closing of the Business Combination a seven-year term loan facility with an aggregate principal amount of  $350 million and (ii) Wells Fargo has agreed to make available to the combined company at the closing of the Business Combination a five-year asset based revolving credit facility in the aggregate committed amount of  $60 million.
Board of Directors of Newco Following the Business Combination
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Newco Board is expected to consist of nine directors divided into three classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to Newco’s first annual meeting of stockholders) serving a three-year term. If each director nominee is elected at the Special Meeting, Heather L. Faust, David G. Hall and Iain Humphries will be Class I directors serving until the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, Brian Hodges, John M. Piecuch and Howard D. Morgan will be Class II directors serving until the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, and David A.B. Brown, Tariq Osman and Bruce Young will be Class III directors serving until the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, or in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier resignation, removal or death. Industrea believes it is in the best interests of its stockholders to allow stockholders to vote upon the election of newly appointed directors.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; and
152

(iii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, Peninsula’s nomination right in respect of such threshold will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
Please see the section entitled “The Director Election Proposal” for additional information.
Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws
The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Newco prior to the Business Combination will be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Newco after the Business Combination. Newco’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws have been filed as an exhibit to Newco’s registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part.
Name; Headquarters
After completion of the Business Combination, Newco will own directly or indirectly all of the equity in CPH and Industrea. The name of the publicly traded holding company will be Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. The corporate headquarters of Newco will be located at 6461 Downing Street, Denver, Colorado.
Redemption Rights
Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, we are providing our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem, upon the closing of the Business Combination, public shares then held by them for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission totaling $8,050,000 that we will pay to the underwriters of our IPO or transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2018, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.30. Public stockholders may elect to redeem their shares even if they vote for the Business Combination.
You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
(i)
(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and
(ii)
prior to [    ], Eastern Time, on [          ], 2018, (a) submit a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Transfer Agent, that Industrea redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.
Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing.
A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the shares of Class A common stock included in the units sold in our IPO. We have no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Industrea Charter, other than the aforementioned 15%
153

threshold, except that in no event will we redeem shares of our Class A common stock in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. Each redemption of public shares by our public stockholders will reduce the amount in our trust account. Holders of our outstanding public warrants do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.
Please see the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your shares for cash.
Appraisal Rights
Appraisal rights are not available to our stockholders in connection with the Business Combination.
Accounting Treatment
The Business Combination will be accounted for by applying the acquisition method, which requires the determination of the accounting acquirer, the acquisition date, the fair value of the purchase consideration to be transferred, the fair value of assets and liabilities of the acquiree and the measurement of goodwill.
ASC Topic 805-10, “Business Combinations — Overall” (“ASC 805-10”) provides that in identifying the acquiring entity in a business combination effected primarily through an exchange of equity interests, the acquirer is usually the entity that issues equity interests but all pertinent facts and circumstances must be considered in determining the acquirer. Other pertinent facts and circumstances to consider include the relative voting rights of the shareholders of the constituent companies in the combined entity, the composition of the board of directors and senior management of the combined company, the relative size of each company and the terms of the exchange of equity interests in the Business Combination, including payment of any premium.
Although Newco will issue equity interests in the Business Combination, since it is a new entity formed solely to issue these equity interests to effect the Business Combination, it would not be considered the acquirer and one of the combining entities that existed before the Business Combination must be identified as the acquirer.
Industrea will be considered the accounting acquirer and CPH will be considered the accounting acquiree since Industrea is considered to be a substantive entity. The ultimate determination of the accounting acquirer is a qualitative and quantitative assessment that requires careful consideration, of which the final determination will occur after the consummation of the Business Combination. Under the acquisition method of accounting, Industrea will allocate the purchase price of this acquisition to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated acquisition-date fair values. These estimates will be determined through established and generally accepted valuation techniques. Business Combination costs will be expensed as incurred.
Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following is a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for holders of our shares of Class A common stock and our warrants of  (i) electing to have their Class A common stock redeemed for cash if the Business Combination is completed, (ii) the Business Combination, and (iii) the ownership and disposition of our shares of Class A common stock and warrants, as well as certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for holders of Newco common stock after the Business Combination. This discussion applies only to shares of Class A or Newco common stock or warrants that are held as a capital asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not apply to any shares issued pursuant to the PIPE Financing. This discussion is general in nature and does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including any state, local, or non-United States tax considerations, any non-income tax (such as gift or estate tax) considerations, the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income and the different consequences that may apply if you are subject to special rules that apply to certain types of investors, such as:

financial institutions;
154


controlled foreign corporations or passive foreign investment companies;

persons liable for alternative minimum tax;

mutual funds or pension plans;

trusts and estates;

U.S. expatriates, investors subject to the U.S. “inversion” rules, and Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below, and except as otherwise discussed below);insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, or regulated investment companies;

dealers in securities;

traders in securities subject to a mark-to-market method of accounting with respect to shares of Class A common stock or warrants;

persons holding Class A common stock or warrants as part of a “straddle,” hedge, integrated transaction or similar transaction;

U.S. holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or beneficial owners of a partnership or other pass-through entity;

tax-exempt entities;

“qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds; and

persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of income relating to Class A common stock, warrants or Newco common stock being taken into account in an applicable financial statement.
If you are a partnership (including an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), the U.S. federal income tax treatment of your partners will generally depend on the status of the partners and your activities.
This discussion is based on the Code and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations as of the date hereof, changes to any of which may affect the tax consequences described herein. We have not and do not intend to seek any rulings from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding any of the tax consequences described herein. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions concerning the tax consequences of the transactions that are inconsistent with the considerations discussed below or that any such positions would not be sustained by a court.
You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.
Redemption of Class A common stock.   In the event that a holder’s shares of Class A common stock are redeemed pursuant to the redemption provisions described in this proxy statement/prospectus under the section entitled “Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights,” the treatment of the redemption for U.S. federal income tax purposes will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as a sale or other exchange of shares of Class A common stock under Section 302 of the Code. If the redemption qualifies as a sale of shares of Class A common stock, a U.S. holder (as defined below) will be treated as described below under the section entitled “U.S. holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock,” and a Non-U.S. holder (as defined below) will be treated as described under the section entitled “Non-U.S. holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.” If the redemption does not qualify as a sale of shares of Class A common
155

stock, a U.S. holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution with the tax consequences to a U.S. holder described below under the section entitled “U.S. holders — Taxation of Distributions,” and the tax consequences to a non-U.S. holder described below under the section entitled “Non-U.S. holders — Taxation of Distributions.”
Whether a redemption of shares of Class A common stock qualifies for sale treatment will depend largely on the total number of shares of our stock treated as held by the redeemed holder before and after the redemption (including any stock constructively owned by the holder as a result of owning warrants and any of our stock that a holder would directly or indirectly acquire pursuant to the Business Combination) relative to all of our shares outstanding both before and after the redemption. The redemption of Class A common stock generally will be treated as a sale of Class A common stock (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of the holder’s interest in us or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the holder. These tests are explained more fully below.
In determining whether any of the foregoing tests result in a redemption qualifying for sale treatment, a holder takes into account not only shares of our stock actually owned by the holder, but also shares of our stock that are constructively owned by it. A holder may constructively own, in addition to stock owned directly, stock owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the holder has an interest or that have an interest in such holder, as well as any stock that the holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include Class A common stock which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the warrants. Moreover, any of our stock that a holder directly or constructively acquires pursuant to the Business Combination generally should be included in determining the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the redemption.
In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of our outstanding voting stock actually and constructively owned by the holder immediately following the redemption of shares of Class A common stock must, among other requirements, be less than eighty percent (80%) of the percentage of our outstanding voting stock actually and constructively owned by the holder immediately before the redemption. There will be a complete termination of a holder’s interest if either (i) all of the shares of our stock actually and constructively owned by the holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the shares of our stock actually owned by the holder are redeemed and the holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of stock owned by certain family members and the holder does not constructively own any other stock. The redemption of Class A common stock will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if the redemption results in a “meaningful reduction” of the holder’s proportionate interest in us. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a holder’s proportionate interest in us will depend on the particular facts and circumstances.
However, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority stockholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”
If none of the foregoing tests is satisfied, then the redemption of shares of Class A common stock will be treated as a corporate distribution to the redeemed holder and the tax effects to such U.S. holder will be as described below under the section entitled “U.S. holders — Taxation of Distributions,” and the tax effects to such Non-U.S. holder will be as described below under the section entitled “Non-U.S. holders — Taxation of Distributions.” After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis of the holder in the redeemed Class A common stock will be added to the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining stock, or, if it has none, to the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its warrants or possibly in other stock constructively owned by it.
A holder should consult with its own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of a redemption.
U.S. Holders
This section applies to you if you are a “U.S. holder.” A U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of our shares of Class A or Newco common stock or warrants that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
156


a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or

a trust (A) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a United States court and which has one or more United States persons (within the meaning of the Code) who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) that has in effect a valid election under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.
Tax Consequences of the Business Combination.   The exchange by holders of Class A common stock for common stock of Newco pursuant to the Industrea Merger, in combination with the contribution by the Rollover Holders of their Rollover Shares to Newco, the combination of cash by certain PIPE Investors and any other relevant contributions to Newco, will constitute a tax-deferred transaction pursuant to Section 351 of the Code, and as a result, no gain or loss will be recognized by the holders of Class A common stock who exchange Class A common stock solely for Newco common stock pursuant to the Industrea Merger. Accordingly, the adjusted tax basis of the shares of Newco common stock received by such holder of Class A common stock in the Industrea Merger will be the same as the adjusted tax basis of the Class A common stock surrendered in exchange therefor. In addition, the holding period of the shares of Newco common stock received in the Industrea Merger by such holder of shares of Class A common stock will include the period during which such shares of Class A common stock were held on the date of the Industrea Merger. Every “significant transferor” pursuant to the exchange must include a statement on or with such transferor’s income tax return for the taxable year of the exchange. For this purpose, a significant transferor is generally a person that transferred property to a corporation and received stock of the transferee corporation if, immediately after the exchange, such person (i) owned at least five percent (by vote or value) of the total outstanding stock of the transferee corporation if the stock owned by such person is publicly traded, or (ii) owned at least one percent (by vote or value) of the total outstanding stock of the transferee corporation if the stock owned by such person is not publicly traded. We expect that the Newco common stock will be publicly traded for this purpose.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is a risk that the outstanding Industrea warrants, which are currently exercisable for one share of Class A common stock and will be exercisable for one share of Newco common stock following the Industrea Merger, will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as having been “exchanged” by the holders of such warrants for new warrants. Because the terms of the warrants are not otherwise being changed pursuant to the Industrea Merger and because the terms of the warrants, when originally issued, contemplated, among other things, the warrants becoming exercisable into shares of another corporation under circumstances similar to the Industrea Merger, the warrants becoming exercisable into shares of Newco common stock should not be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as giving rise to an exchange of the warrants for new warrants. Although we intend to take this position, no assurance can be given, however, that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain a contrary position, and if the warrants were to be treated as having been exchanged for new warrants and such exchange were governed only by Section 351 of the Code and not by Section 368 of the Code, a holder of Class A common stock holding such warrants would be required to recognize gain, but not loss, as a result of the exchange equal to the lesser of  (i) such stockholder’s “realized gain” from the exchange (generally the excess of the sum of the fair market value of the Newco common stock received and new warrants treated as having been received over such stockholder’s aggregate tax basis in the Class A common stock exchanged and warrants treated as having been exchanged), or (ii) the fair market value of the new warrants treated as having been received. If the warrants were treated as having been exchanged for new warrants and such exchange were not governed by Section 368 of the Code, a warrant holder who does not also own Class A common stock would recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the new warrant deemed received and such holder’s tax basis in the warrant treated as having been exchanged. Any such gain would generally be long-term capital gain if the holder’s holding period for our Class A common stock and warrants (or just warrants as the case may be) was more than one year at the time of the Industrea Merger and the holder would start a new holding period in the new warrants. In that case, the holder’s tax basis in the new warrants treated as having been received in the exchange would be equal to the fair market value of such warrants at the time of the Industrea Merger. However, if the deemed
157

exchange also qualifies as part of a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code, a holder will not recognize any gain or loss on any such deemed exchange of warrants and such holder’s basis in the new warrants deemed received will be equal to the holder’s basis in its warrants deemed exchanged. However, the requirements for qualification of the Industrea Merger as a tax-deferred “reorganization” under Section 368 of the Code are more stringent in certain respects than the requirements for qualification as a tax-deferred transaction under Section 351 of the Code and there can be no assurance that the transaction will also qualify under Section 368.
Taxation of Distributions.   If our redemption of a U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock is treated as a distribution, as discussed above under the section entitled “Redemption of Class A common stock,” and in the event of any future distributions with respect to Newco common stock, such distributions generally will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our (or Newco’s, as the case may be) current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our Class A or Newco common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Class A or Newco common stock and will be treated as described below under the section entitled “U.S. holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.”
Dividends paid to a U.S. holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. It is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the Class A common stock described in this proxy statement/prospectus may prevent a U.S. holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirements with respect to the dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income, as the case may be.
Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.   If our redemption of a U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock is treated as a sale or other taxable disposition, as discussed above under the section entitled “Redemption of Class A common stock,” and in the event of any future sale or other taxable disposition of Newco common stock, a U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares of Class A or Newco common stock redeemed or sold or exchanged. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Class A or Newco common stock so disposed of exceeds one year. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the Class A common stock described in this proxy statement/prospectus may suspend the running of the applicable holding period for this purpose. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.
Generally, the amount of gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder is an amount equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received in such disposition and (ii) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A or Newco common stock so disposed of. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A or Newco common stock generally will equal the U.S. holder’s acquisition cost less any prior distributions paid to such U.S. holder with respect to its shares of Class A or Newco common stock treated as a return of capital.
Non-U.S. Holders
This section applies to you if you are a “Non-U.S. holder.” A Non-U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of our Class A common stock, warrants or Newco common stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

a non-resident alien individual, other than certain former citizens and residents of the United States subject to U.S. tax as expatriates;

a foreign corporation; or
158


an estate or trust that is not a U.S. holder;
but does not include an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition. If you are such an individual, you should consult your tax advisor.
Tax Consequences of the Business Combination.   As described above under the section titled “U.S. Holders — Tax Consequences of the Business Combination,” a holder of our warrants may recognize gain on the Business Combination. If this is the case, the consequences should follow those described below under the section titled “Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.” Non-U.S. holders of Class A common shares generally will not recognize gain or loss as a result of the Business Combination, as discussed below under the section titled “Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.”
Taxation of Distributions.   If our redemption of a Non-U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock is treated as a distribution, as discussed above under the section entitled “Redemption of Class A common stock,” and in the event of any future distributions with respect to Newco common stock, to the extent paid out of our (or Newco’s, as the case may be) current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), such distribution will generally constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, provided such dividends are not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, we will be required to withhold tax from the gross amount of the dividend at a rate of thirty percent (30%), unless such Non-U.S. holder is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and provides proper certification of its eligibility for such reduced rate (usually on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E). Any distribution not constituting a dividend will generally be treated first as reducing (but not below zero) the Non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of our Class A or Newco common stock and, to the extent such distribution exceeds the Non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis, as gain realized from the sale or other disposition of the Class A or Newco common stock, which will be treated as described below under the section entitled “Non-U.S. holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.”
The withholding tax generally does not apply to dividends paid to a Non-U.S. holder who provides an IRS Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States. Instead, the effectively connected dividends will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax as if the Non-U.S. holder were a U.S. resident, subject to an applicable income tax treaty providing otherwise. A Non-U.S. holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is receiving effectively connected dividends may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at a rate of thirty percent (30%) (or a lower applicable treaty rate).
Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.   If our redemption of a U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock is treated as a sale or other taxable disposition, as discussed above under the section entitled “Redemption of Class A common stock,” and in the event of any future sale or other taxable disposition of Newco common stock, a Non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax in respect of gain recognized on a sale, taxable exchange or other taxable disposition of our Class A or Newco common stock, unless:

the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the Non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, under certain income tax treaties, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the Non-U.S. holder);

we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that the Non-U.S. holder held our Class A or Newco common stock; or

the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year in which the redemption takes place and certain other conditions are met, in which case the Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to a thirty percent (30%) tax on the individual’s net capital gain for the year.
Unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise, gain described in the first bullet point above will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates as if the Non-U.S. holder were a
159

U.S. resident. Any gains described in the first bullet point above of a Non-U.S. holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a thirty percent (30%) rate (or lower applicable treaty rate).
If the second bullet point above applies to a Non-U.S. holder, gain recognized by such holder on the sale, taxable exchange or other taxable disposition of shares of our Class A or Newco common stock will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, a buyer of our Class A or Newco common stock (we would be treated as a buyer with respect to a redemption of Class A common stock) may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax at a rate of fifteen percent (15%) of the amount realized upon such disposition. We believe that we are not and have not been at any time since our formation a United States real property holding corporation and Newco does not expect to be a United States real property holding corporation immediately after the Business Combination is completed.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.   Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments resulting from our redemption of shares of Class A common stock or future sale, taxable exchange, or other taxable disposition of shares of Newco common stock. A Non-U.S. holder may have to comply with certification procedures to establish that it is not a United States person in order to avoid information reporting and backup withholding requirements. The certification procedures required to claim a reduced rate of withholding under a treaty will satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the backup withholding as well. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a Non-U.S. holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.
FATCA Withholding Taxes.   Provisions commonly referred to as “FATCA” impose withholding of thirty percent (30%) on payments of dividends (including constructive dividends received pursuant to a redemption of stock) on, or gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, Class A or Newco common stock to “foreign financial institutions” (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies (typically certified as to by the delivery of a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E). If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution generally will be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden). Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Under the applicable Treasury regulations and administrative guidance, the withholding provisions described above are in effect with respect to actual or deemed payments of dividends, and also will apply on or after January 1, 2019 to payment of gross proceeds from a sale or other disposition. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the effects of FATCA on a redemption of, on dividiends paid on or on proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, Class A or Newco common stock.
Regulatory Matters
Under the HSR Act and the rules that have been promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), certain transactions may not be consummated unless information has been furnished to the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (“Antitrust Division”) and the FTC and certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied. The Business Combination is subject to these requirements and may not be completed until the expiration of a 30-day waiting period following the filing of the required Notification and Report Forms with the Antitrust Division and the FTC or until early termination is granted. On or about September 10, 2018, Industrea filed the required forms under the HSR Act with the Antitrust Division and the FTC.
At any time before or after consummation of the Business Combination, notwithstanding termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act, the applicable competition authorities could take such action under applicable antitrust laws as each deems necessary or desirable in the public interest, including seeking to enjoin the consummation of the Business Combination. Private parties may also seek to take legal action under the antitrust laws under certain circumstances. We cannot assure you that the Antitrust Division, the FTC, any state attorney general, or any other government authority will not attempt to challenge the
160

Business Combination on antitrust grounds, and, if such a challenge is made, we cannot assure you as to its result. Neither Industrea nor CPH is aware of any material regulatory approvals or actions that are required for completion of the Business Combination other than the expiration or early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. It is presently contemplated that if any such additional regulatory approvals or actions are required, those approvals or actions will be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.
Vote Required for Approval
This Business Combination Proposal (and consequently, the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination) will be adopted and approved only if the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock are voted “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal. A stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Business Combination Proposal.
As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote any shares of Industrea common stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination. As of the date hereof, our Initial Stockholders own 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of Industrea common stock and have not purchased any public shares, but may do so at any time.
The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the proposals other than the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, other than the Adjournment Proposal, which are is conditioned on the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Recommendation of the Industrea Board
THE INDUSTREA BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL.

THE NASDAQ PROPOSAL
Overview
In order to finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in the Business Combination and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, Industrea has entered into (i) a subscription agreement with the Argand Investor, pursuant to which the Argand Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination 5,333,333 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $54.4 million, plus, up to an additional 2,450,980 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or up to an aggregate cash purchase price of  $25.0 million, to offset redemptions of public shares, if any, in connection with the Business Combination if such redemptions exceed $106.5 million; and (ii) a subscription agreement with the Lead Common Investor, pursuant to which (x) the Lead Common Investor has agreed to purchase immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination an aggregate of 1,715,686 shares of Industrea’s common stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $17.5 million and (y) Industrea has agreed to issue an aggregate of 190,632 additional shares of Industrea common stock to the Lead Common Investor as consideration for the Lead Common Investor’s obligation to purchase Industrea common stock under such agreement (and the Sponsor will also forfeit an equal number of Founder Shares).
In addition, under the Merger Agreement and related agreements, redemptions of public shares in connection with the Business Combination, if any, will be offset in the following manner: (i) the first $106.5 million of redemptions will be offset using proceeds from the Debt Financing and the PIPE Financing; (ii) the next $25.0 million of redemptions will be offset by the sale to the Argand Investor of Industrea common stock at $10.20 per share under the Argand Subscription Agreement; and (iii) any remaining redemptions will be offset by the contribution by Peninsula of additional shares of CPH capital stock to Newco in exchange for additional shares of Newco common stock, in which case the Sponsor will also forfeit to Industrea for cancellation a number of Founder Shares equal to 10% of the number of shares of Industrea common stock issued to Peninsula under this clause (iii) (such that the net dilutive effect of such sale is equivalent to a sale price of  $10.20 per share).
For more information on the Subscription Agreements, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Related Agreements.”
Why Industrea Needs Stockholder Approval
We are seeking stockholder approval in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a) and (d).
Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), stockholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities in connection with the acquisition of another company if such securities are not issued in a public offering and (A) have, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock); or (B) the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of the stock or securities.
In connection with the Business Combination, pursuant to the Subscription Agreements and the Backstop, Industrea may issue 20% or more of its outstanding common stock or 20% or more of the voting power, in each case outstanding before the issuance.
Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), stockholder approval is required for a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by an issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price that is less than the greater of book or market value of the stock if the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or may be equal to 20% or more of the common stock, or 20% or more of the voting power, outstanding before the issuance.
Effect of Proposal on Current Stockholders
If the Nasdaq Proposal is adopted, up to approximately 7,239,651 shares of Industrea common stock may be issued pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements (including pursuant to the Backstop, if utilized), which represents approximately 25.2% of the 28,750,000 shares of our common stock
162

outstanding on the date hereof. Additional shares of Industrea common stock may also be issued pursuant to the Backstop to offset redemptions of public shares, if any. The issuance of such shares would result in significant dilution to our stockholders, and would afford our stockholders a smaller percentage interest in the voting power, liquidation value and aggregate book value of Industrea.
Vote Required for Approval
Approval of the Nasdaq Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting. Assuming a valid quorum is otherwise established, failure to vote, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Nasdaq Proposal.
The Nasdaq Proposal is conditioned upon the approval and completion of the Business Combination Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the Nasdaq Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by our stockholders.

THE CHARTER PROPOSALS
Overview
The Charter Proposals, if approved, will approve the following material differences between the Newco Charter that will be in effect upon the closing of the Business Combination and the Industrea Charter:

the name of the new public company will be “Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc.” as opposed to “Industrea Acquisition Corp.”;

Newco will have 500,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, as opposed to Industrea having 220,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock; and

Newco Charter will not include the various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies that the Industrea Charter contains.
This vote, however, will not actually result in stockholders of Industrea approving the Newco Charter or amendments to the Industrea Charter but instead will simply approve the aforementioned material differences in the two sets of documents.
Reasons for the Amendments
In the judgment of the Industrea Board, the Charter Proposals are desirable for the following reasons:

The name of the new public company is desirable to reflect the business combination with CPH and the combined business going forward.

The greater number of authorized number of shares of capital stock is desirable for Newco to have sufficient shares to issue to the holders of common stock and warrants of Industrea in connection with the Business Combination and have additional authorized shares for financing its business, for acquiring other businesses, for forming strategic partnerships and alliances and for stock dividends and stock splits.

The provisions that relate to the operation of Industrea as a blank check company prior to the consummation of its initial business combination would not be applicable to Newco (such as the obligation to dissolve and liquidate if a business combination is not consummated in a certain period of time).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, authorized but unissued shares of common stock may enable the Newco Board to render it more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of Newco and thereby protect continuity of or entrench its management, which may adversely affect the market price of Newco’s securities. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Newco Board were to determine that a takeover proposal were not in the best interests of Newco, such shares could be issued by the Newco Board without shareholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or make more costly the completion of any attempted takeover transaction by diluting voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effect effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise. The authorization of additional shares will, however, enable Newco to have the flexibility to authorize the issuance of shares in the future for financing its business, for acquiring other businesses, for forming strategic partnerships and alliances and for stock dividends and stock splits. Newco currently has no such plans, proposals, or arrangements, written or otherwise, to issue any of the additional authorized shares for such purposes.
164

Vote Required for Approval
Approval of each of the Charter Proposals requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock of Industrea. A stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting, or the failure of a stockholder who holds his or her shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee to give voting instructions to such broker or other nominee will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” each of the Charter Proposals.
Each of the Charter Proposals is conditioned upon the approval and completion of the Business Combination Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the Charter Proposals will have no effect, even if approved by our stockholders.
Recommendation of the Industrea Board
THE INDUSTREA BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE CHARTER PROPOSALS.
165

THE DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL
Overview
Assuming the Business Combination Proposal is approved at the Special Meeting, stockholders are being asked to elect nine directors to the Newco Board, effective upon the Closing, with Class I directors having a term that expires at the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, Class II directors having a term that expires at the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, and Class III directors having a term that expires at the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, or in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier resignation, removal or death. The election of these directors is contingent upon approval of the business combination.
Management has nominated each of Bruce Young, Iain Humphries, David A.B. Brown, Tariq Osman, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Heather L. Faust, Howard D. Morgan, John M. Piecuch to serve as directors of Newco upon the Closing, Ms. Faust and Messrs. Hall and Humphries serving as Class I Directors, Messrs. Hodges, Piecuch and Morgan serving as Class II directors and Messrs. Brown, Osman and Young serving as Class III directors.
For biographical information concerning David A.B. Brown, Tariq Osman, David G. Hall, Brian Hodges, Heather L. Faust and Howard D. Morgan, see the section entitled “Information About Industrea — Management — Directors and Officers.” For information regarding Bruce Young, Iain Humphries and John M. Piecuch, see the section entitled “Newco Management After the Business Combination.”
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; (ii) two individuals, one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; and (iii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, Peninsula’s nomination right in respect of such threshold will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
Vote Required for Approval
The election of directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors. Assuming a valid quorum is established, failure to vote, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of directors.
The Director Election Proposal conditioned upon the approval and completion of the Business Combination Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the Director Election Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by our stockholders.

THE INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL
Overview
Assuming that the Business Combination Proposal is approved, our stockholders are also being asked to approve and adopt the Incentive Plan. A total of 7,700,000 shares of common stock will be reserved for issuance under the Incentive Plan. The number of reserved shares will not be reduced by the number of incentive stock options of CPH that are converted at the time of the Closing into fully-vested incentive stock options of Newco. Newco’s board of directors (the “Newco Board”) has approved the Incentive Plan, subject to Industrea’s stockholder approval at the Special Meeting. The Incentive Plan is described in more detail below. A copy of the Incentive Plan is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C. If approved by our shareholders, the Incentive Plan will be administered by the Newco Board or by a committee thereof that the Newco Board designates for this purpose (referred to below as the plan administrator), which will have the authority to make awards under the Incentive Plan.
The Incentive Plan will authorize future awards to employees, consultants and directors of Newco and its subsidiaries, including CPH, who are selected to be participants in the Incentive Plan. We expect that initial awards granted to employees under the Incentive Plan will generally follow the guidelines summarized below; however, the terms and conditions of awards have not yet been finalized and may therefore vary from the following description:

We anticipate that approximately 75% of initial awards will be subject to performance-based vesting, to be earned based on the appreciation in the price of a share of common stock, with stock price hurdles beginning at no less than $13 per share. The applicable stock price hurdles will need to be maintained for at least six consecutive months of trading for the performance-based component to be satisfied, and the awards will be subject to an additional three-year service-vesting schedule thereafter.

We anticipate that approximately 25% of initial awards will be subject to service-based vesting, to be earned based on continued service with Newco and its subsidiaries over a five-year period.

Awards under the Incentive Plan will be granted pursuant to award agreements, which we expect to include, among other provisions, terms governing the treatment of the awards in the event of a termination of the participant’s service, whether for or without cause, due to death or disability or due to a voluntary resignation.
After careful consideration, the Industrea Board believes that approving the Incentive Plan is in the best interests of its stockholders and Newco. The Incentive Plan promotes ownership in Newco by its employees, directors and consultants, and aligns incentives between these service providers and stockholders by permitting these service providers to receive compensation in the form of awards denominated in, or based on the value of, Newco common stock. Therefore, the Industrea Board recommends that our stockholders approve the Incentive Plan.
The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the Incentive Plan was determined based on a review and benchmarking against Aon’s initial public offering database that provides data specific to management equity allocations at the time of the initial public offerings of companies with a market capitalization of  $100 million or more.
Description of the Incentive Plan
The following is a summary of the material features of the Incentive Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Incentive Plan attached as Annex C to this proxy statement/prospectus.
Purpose; Types of Awards.   The purpose of the Incentive Plan is (i) to encourage profitability and growth through short-term and long-term incentives that are consistent with Newco’s objectives; (ii) to give its participants an incentive for excellence in individual performance; (iii) to promote teamwork among its participants; and (iv) to give us a significant advantage in attracting and retaining key employees, directors, and consultants.

To accomplish this purpose, the Incentive Plan permits the granting of awards in the form of incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance based awards (including performance shares, performance units and performance bonus awards), and other stock-based or cash-based awards.
Shares Subject to the Incentive Plan.   A total of 7,700,000 shares of Newco common stock will be reserved and available for issuance under the Incentive Plan. The maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to options intended to be incentive stock options is 7,700,000 shares of common stock. The Incentive Plan limits non-employee director compensation, including cash fees and incentive equity awards (based on their grant-date fair value), to a maximum of  $450,000 per fiscal year in respect of their service as non-employee directors. If an award granted under the Incentive Plan is forfeited, canceled, settled, or otherwise terminated, the shares of common stock underlying that award will again become available for re-issuance under the Incentive Plan. However, none of the following shares will be available for re-issuance under the Incentive Plan: (i) shares delivered to or withheld to pay withholding taxes, (ii) shares used to pay the exercise price of an option, or (iii) shares subject to any exercised stock-settled SARs. Any substitute awards, including all incentive stock options of CPH that are converted at the Closing into fully-vested incentive stock options to acquire Newco common stock, shall not reduce the shares authorized for grant under the Incentive Plan. We estimate that incentive stock options covering approximately 2,500,000 shares of Newco common stock will be issued under the Incentive Plan upon the conversion of incentive stock options of CPH into incentive stock options of Newco, which will not count against the 7,700,000 of shares reserved under the Incentive Plan.
Administration of the Incentive Plan.   The Incentive Plan will be administered by the plan administrator, which will be comprised of the Newco Board or a committee thereof designated by the Newco Board. The plan administrator has the power to determine the terms of the awards granted under the Incentive Plan, including the exercise price, the number of shares subject to each award, and the exercisability of the awards. The plan administrator also has the power to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which awards will be made and to make all other determinations and take all other actions advisable for the administration of the Incentive Plan.
Participation.   Participation in the Incentive Plan will be open to employees, non-employee directors and consultants of Newco or its affiliates, who have been selected as eligible recipients under the Incentive Plan by the plan administrator. Awards of incentive stock options, however, shall be limited to employees of Newco or certain of its affiliates.
Types of Awards.   The types of awards that may be made under the Incentive Plan are described below. All of the awards described below are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, vesting and forfeiture provisions determined by the plan administrator, subject to certain limitations provided in the Incentive Plan.
Performance-Based Awards.   We may grant awards, the vesting of which is conditioned on satisfaction of certain performance criteria. Such performance-based awards may include performance-based restricted shares, restricted stock units or any other types of awards authorized under the Incentive Plan.
Performance Goals.   If the plan administrator determines that the vesting of an award granted to a participant will be subject to the attainment of one or more performance goals, such performance goals may be based on any one or more of the following (or such other performance criteria as the plan administrator may determine): earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; net operating profit after tax; cash flow; revenue; net revenues; sales; days sales outstanding; scrap rates; income; net income; operating income; net operating income, operating margin; earnings; earnings per share; return on equity; return on investment; return on capital; return on assets; return on net assets; total stockholder return; economic profit; market share; appreciation in the fair market value, book value or other measure of value of Newco common stock; expense/cost control; working capital; volume/production; new products; customer satisfaction; brand development; employee retention or employee turnover; employee satisfaction or engagement; environmental, health, or other safety goals; individual performance; strategic objective milestones; days inventory outstanding; or, as applicable, any combination of, or a specified increase or decrease in, any of the foregoing.
168

Restricted Stock.   A restricted stock award is an award of shares of common stock that vest in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the plan administrator and set forth in the applicable award agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the plan administrator in its sole discretion, a sole participant will be entitled to vote shares of restricted stock. The plan administrator will determine and set forth in the award agreement whether the participant will be entitled to receive dividends on such shares.
Restricted Stock Units.   A restricted stock unit is a right to receive shares of common stock (or their cash equivalent) at a specified date in the future, subject to forfeiture of such right. If the restricted stock unit has not been forfeited, then on the date specified in the restricted stock unit grant, Newco must deliver to the holder of the restricted stock unit unrestricted shares of common stock (or their cash equivalent).
Non-Qualified Stock Options.   A non-qualified stock option entitles the recipient to purchase shares of Newco common stock at a fixed exercise price, which purchase may be conditioned on vesting in accordance with terms and conditions established by the plan administrator and set forth in an applicable award agreement. The exercise price per share will be determined by the plan administrator, but such price will generally not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Newco common stock on the date of grant. Fair market value will generally be the closing price of an ordinary share on Nasdaq on the date of grant. Non-qualified stock options under the Incentive Plan generally must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. A non-qualified stock option is an option that does not meet the qualifications of an incentive stock option as described below.
Incentive Stock Option.   An incentive stock option is a stock option that entitles the recipient to purchase shares of Newco common stock at a fixed exercise price and further meets the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. The recipient’s purchase of shares under an incentive stock option may be conditioned on vesting in accordance with terms and conditions established by the plan administrator and set forth in an applicable award agreement. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of Newco and certain of its affiliates. The exercise price per share of an incentive stock option must not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Newco common stock on the date of grant, and the aggregate fair market value of shares underlying incentive stock options that are exercisable for the first time by a participant during any calendar year (based on the applicable exercise price) may not exceed $100,000. No incentive stock option may be granted to any person who, at the time of the grant, owns or is deemed to own stock possessing more than 10% of Newco’s total combined voting power or that of any of Newco’s affiliates unless (i) the option exercise price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option on the date of grant and (ii) the term of the incentive stock option does not exceed five years from the date of grant.
Stock Appreciation Rights.   A SAR entitles the holder to receive an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of a share of Newco common stock on the exercise date and the exercise price of the SAR (which generally may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Newco common stock on the grant date), multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to the SAR (as determined by the plan administrator).
Other Stock-Based Awards.   We may grant or sell to any participant unrestricted common stock, dividend equivalent rights and/or other awards denominated in or valued by reference to our common stock under the Incentive Plan. A dividend equivalent is a right to receive payments, based on dividends with respect to shares of Newco common stock.
Other Cash-Based Awards.   We may grant cash awards under the Incentive Plan, including cash awards as a bonus or based upon the attainment of certain performance goals.
Equitable Adjustments.   In the event of a merger, consolidation, reclassification, recapitalization, spin-off, spin-out, repurchase or other reorganization or corporate transaction or event, extraordinary dividend, stock split or reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or other change in corporate structure or payment of any other distribution, the maximum number and kind of shares of Newco common stock reserved for issuance or with respect to which awards may be granted under the Incentive Plan will be adjusted to reflect such event, and the plan administrator will make such adjustments as it deems appropriate and equitable in the number, kind and exercise price of shares of Newco common stock covered by outstanding awards made under the Incentive Plan, and in any other matters that relate to awards and that are affected by the changes in the shares referred to in this section.
169

Change in Control.   In the event of any change in control (as defined in the Incentive Plan), the plan administrator will take any action as it deems appropriate and equitable to effectuate the purposes of the Incentive Plan and to protect the participants who hold outstanding awards under the Incentive Plan, which action may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the continuation of any award, if Newco is the surviving corporation; (ii) the assumption of any award by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary; (iii) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary of equivalent awards for any award, provided, however, that any such substitution shall occur in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; or (iv) settlement of any award for the change in control price (less, to the extent applicable, the per share exercise or grant price), or, if the per share exercise or grant price equals or exceeds the change in control price or if the plan administrator determines that the award cannot reasonably become vested pursuant to its terms, such award shall terminate and be canceled without consideration.
Amendment and Termination.   The plan administrator may alter, amend, modify, or terminate the Incentive Plan at any time, provided that the approval of our stockholders will be sought for any amendment to the Incentive Plan that requires stockholder approval under the rules of the stock exchange(s) on which Newco common stock is then listed or in accordance with other applicable law, including, but not limited to, an increase in the number of shares of Newco common stock reserved for issuance, a reduction in the exercise price of options or other entitlements, an extension of the maximum term of any award, or an amendment that grants the plan administrator additional powers to amend the Incentive Plan. In addition, no modification of an award will, without the prior written consent of the participant, adversely alter or impair any rights or obligations under any award already granted under the Incentive Plan, unless the plan administrator expressly reserved the right to do so at the time of the award.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following discussion of certain relevant United States federal income tax effects applicable to certain awards granted under the Incentive Plan is only a summary of certain of the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to United States residents under the Plan, and reference is made to the Code for a complete statement of all relevant federal tax provisions. No consideration has been given to the effects of foreign, state, local and other laws (tax or other) on the Incentive Plan or on a participant, which laws will vary depending upon the particular jurisdiction or jurisdictions involved. In particular, participants who are stationed outside the United States may be subject to foreign taxes as a result of the Incentive Plan.
Non-Qualified Stock Options.   An optionee subject to United States federal income tax will generally not recognize taxable income for United States federal income tax purposes upon the grant or vesting of a non-qualified stock option. Rather, at the time of exercise of the non-qualified stock option, the optionee will recognize ordinary income, and Newco will be entitled to a deduction, in each case, in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price. If the shares acquired upon the exercise of a non-qualified stock option are later sold or exchanged, then the difference between the amount received upon such sale or exchange and the fair market value of such shares on the date of such exercise will generally be taxable as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss (if the shares are a capital asset of the optionee), depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the optionee.
Incentive Stock Options.   An optionee subject to United States federal income tax will generally not recognize taxable income for United States federal income tax purposes upon the grant or vesting of an incentive stock option (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) and Newco will not be entitled to a deduction at those times. If the incentive stock option is exercised during employment or within 90 days following the termination thereof  (or within one year following termination, in the case of a termination of employment due to death or disability, as such term is defined in the Incentive Plan), the optionee will not recognize any income and Newco will not be entitled to a deduction at the time of exercise. The excess of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date over the exercise price, however, is includible in computing the optionee’s alternative minimum taxable income.
Generally, if an optionee disposes of shares acquired by exercising an incentive stock option either within two years after the date of grant or one year after the date of exercise, the optionee will recognize
170

ordinary income, and Newco will be entitled to a deduction, in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise (or the sale price, if lower) over the exercise price. The balance of any gain or loss will generally be treated as a capital gain or loss to the optionee. If the shares are disposed of after the two-year and one-year periods described above, Newco will not be entitled to any deduction, and the entire gain or loss for the optionee will be treated as a capital gain or loss.
SARs.   A participant subject to United States federal income tax who is granted a SAR will not recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes upon receipt or vesting of the SAR. At the time of exercise, however, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the value of any cash received and the fair market value on the date of exercise of any shares received. Newco will not be entitled to a deduction upon the grant or vesting of a SAR, but generally will be entitled to a deduction for the amount of income the participant recognizes upon the participant’s exercise of the SAR. The participant’s tax basis in any shares received will be the fair market value on the date of exercise and, if the shares are later sold or exchanged, then the difference between the amount received upon such sale or exchange and the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise will generally be taxable as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss (if the stock is a capital asset of the participant) depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the participant.
Restricted Stock.   Except as described in the following paragraph, a participant subject to United States federal income tax generally will not be taxed upon the grant of a restricted stock award, but rather will recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time the restricted stock vests. Newco generally will be entitled to a deduction at the time when, and in the amount that, the participant recognizes ordinary income on account of the lapse of the restrictions. A participant’s tax basis in the shares will equal his or her fair market value at the time the restrictions lapse, and the participant’s holding period for capital gains purposes will begin at that time. Any cash dividends paid on the shares before the restrictions lapse will be taxable to the participant as additional compensation (and not as dividend income).
Under Section 83(b) of the Code, a participant may elect instead to recognize ordinary income at the time the restricted shares are awarded in an amount equal to their fair market value at that time, notwithstanding the fact that such shares are unvested at that time. If such an election is made, no additional taxable income will be recognized by such participant at the time of vesting, the participant will have a tax basis in the restricted shares equal to their fair market value on the date of grant of the award, and the participant’s holding period for capital gains purposes will begin on such date of grant. Newco generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at the time when, and to the extent that, ordinary income is recognized by such participant.
Restricted Stock Units.   A participant subject to United States federal income tax who is granted a restricted stock unit will not recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes upon the receipt of the restricted stock unit, but rather will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares (or value of the cash paid) at the time of payment, and Newco will have a corresponding deduction at that time.
Other Stock-Based and Other Cash-Based Awards.   In the case of other stock-based and other cash-based awards, depending on the form of the award, a participant subject to United States federal income tax will generally not be taxed upon the grant of such an award, but, rather, will generally recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes when such an award vests or otherwise is free of restrictions. In any event, Newco will be entitled to a deduction at the time when, and in the amount that, a participant recognizes ordinary income.
New Plan Benefits
Awards under the Incentive Plan will be made at the discretion of the plan administrator. There are no awards currently pending or contemplated under the Incentive Plan and it is not possible to determine the benefits or amounts that will be received by or allocated to participants under the Incentive Plan at this time. However, in accordance with the Merger Agreement and the Rollover Agreements and subject to the incentive stock option substitution rules under Code Section 424(a), incentive stock options held by certain of the CPH named executive officers will be converted into fully-vested incentive stock options covering Newco common
171

stock upon the Closing. An estimate of the number of shares of Newco common stock covered by these converted incentive stock options are disclosed in the table below. The actual number of shares of Newco common stock covered by the converted stock options at the time of conversion will depend on the value of the CPH common stock and Newco common stock at the effective time of the CPH Merger.

INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTREA
General
We are a blank check company incorporated on April 7, 2017 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to as a “business combination.” Prior to our entering into the Merger Agreement, our acquisition and value creation strategy was to identify, acquire and, after an initial business combination, to build a company in an industry or sector that complements the experience of our management team and can benefit from our operational expertise. Our acquisition selection process has leveraged our team’s network of potential transaction sources, ranging from owners and directors of private and public companies, private equity funds, investment bankers, lenders, attorneys, accountants and other trusted advisors across various sectors. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenue to date. Based on our business activities, we are a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act because we have no operations and nominal assets consisting solely of cash and/or cash equivalents. Industrea is sponsored by Industrea Alexandria LLC, a portfolio company of, and led by the management team of, Argand. Industrea was formed to pursue an acquisition of a market leading manufacturing or service company in the industrial sector.
About Argand
Argand is a New York and San Francisco Bay Area based middle-market buyout firm that targets complex, often contrarian, situations in industrial sectors with a focus on global market leaders with stable cash flows, strong sustainable competitive advantages and a clear path to growth. Argand was formed by former senior partners of Castle Harlan, an industrial focused middle market private equity firm targeting investments in North America, Europe and Asia through its partnership with CHAMP Private Equity. A distinguishing feature of Argand’s investment strategy is its targeting of complex situations involving corporate carve-outs of non-core divisions, industries that are in transition, middle-market companies grappling with the opportunities and difficulties of global operations, good companies with overleveraged balance sheets and family owned businesses transitioning to professional management. The operational, organizational and strategic improvements that Argand seeks to make to these complex situations can unlock growth in earnings and other overlooked sources of value.
The investment team at Argand believes that CPH would gain an active cornerstone investor capable of supporting the capital needs of CPH’s growth plans through its partnership with Argand. Argand’s investment professionals have significant experience investing in and supporting highly global industrial businesses. Argand’s current portfolio includes Sigma Electric, a leading global manufacturer of metal castings, precision machined components and sub-assemblies for blue chip customers in the electrical products, power transmission and distribution and general industrial markets, headquartered in North Carolina, with highly automated manufacturing operations and employing over 450 engineers in India; Brintons Carpets, a leading global manufacturer of luxury woven carpets for commercial and residential end markets, headquartered in the U.K. with manufacturing operations in Poland, Portugal and India; and Oase, the leading global provider of outdoor water gardening products, based in Germany with a global manufacturing footprint and significant aftermarket component.
Argand’s team members also have significant experience in construction end-market oriented companies, including previous investment in a company that provides open-cut mining and civil works services for the resources, transport and construction sectors in Australia; and a company that provides fully integrated services including loading (lifting), transportation of bulk loads, engineering services and project management in Australia.
Further, Argand has significant experience supporting public companies. By way of example, Argand team members historically invested in Polypipe, one of the largest manufacturers and suppliers of plastic pipe and fittings in the U.K. and Ireland, which went public on the London Stock Exchange in 2014. Similarly, Argand team members historically invested in Shelf Drilling, the world’s largest operator of
174

shallow water offshore drilling rigs, which went public in 2017 on the Norwegian Stock Exchange. Finally, Argand team members also supported the growth and subsequent initial public offering on the Australian Stock Exchange of Bradken, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of wear parts for the mining and construction industries.
About Industrea
Industrea’s management team is led by Howard D. Morgan, Tariq Osman, Heather L. Faust and Joseph Del Toro. Together, Mr. Morgan, Mr. Osman and Ms. Faust have more than 60 years of combined investment experience and have a strong track record of investing across both expansionary and recessionary market cycles. In 2015, they formed Argand after working together for a combined 40 years at Castle Harlan. They were joined at Argand by our Chief Financial Officer, Joseph Del Toro, in 2016. Mr. Del Toro is the Chief Financial Officer and Director of Portfolio Operations at Argand and has over 20 years of experience in financial operating roles and mergers and acquisitions roles. During their careers, our management team sourced, led and/or were actively involved in the management of 26 private equity platform investments and 16 add-on acquisitions. These transactions had a total enterprise value of over $6.4 billion.
Industrea’s management team is supplemented by five independent directors who are industrial sector veterans as well as Senior Executive Advisors of Argand. Our management team has successfully worked on prior private equity investments with each of our five independent directors. Our Non-Executive Chairman and independent directors sourced, led, and/or were actively involved in over 70 mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures of an aggregate of approximately $18.0 billion in transaction value. We believe these directors instrumental in helping us source and evaluate an initial business combination, and, more importantly, in seeking to add value to the company post initial business combination. For more information about our management team and board of directors, please refer to “Information about Industrea — Management”.
We believe our specific competitive strengths to be the following:
Management Track Record and Expertise.   Our executive officers and directors have significant experience in investing in industrial manufacturers and service providers, including knowledge of select niche industrial segments. We believe that the combination of deep industry experience and investing, operating and consulting backgrounds of our management team and board of directors will enable us significantly improve the value of industrial businesses such as CPH.
Access to Argand’s Deep Networks within the Industrial Sector.   We expect to benefit from our affiliation with Argand. Argand is a private equity firm specializing in industrial investments. Its team of professionals intend to actively support Industrea. The Argand team is located in New York City and the San Francisco areas, with a majority of its experience and relationships in the United States. However, the team has extensive additional experience and relationships globally. Of particular distinction, Argand has deep set of relationships with an exceptional network of over 100 current and former executives, entrepreneurs, consultants, and public sector leaders to help augment the Argand team’s value creation efforts. Many of these Senior Executive Advisors are former managers of past investments that the Argand investment professionals have been active in.
Focus on Value Creation.   Our management team seeks to not only buy well, but to also actively add value to its investments working in partnership with management teams to expand fundamentally good businesses. We intend to assist management of CPH to define short- and long-term operating plans that will significantly enhance the growth prospects, earnings and value of the business.
On April 10, 2017, our Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 5,750,000 Founder Shares, for an aggregate purchase price of  $25,000 or approximately $0.004 per share. In April and May 2017, our Sponsor transferred 28,750 Founder Shares (or 143,750 in the aggregate) to each of our independent directors.
On August 1, 2017, we consummated our IPO of 23,000,000 units, including 3,000,000 units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each such unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one public warrant to purchase one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of  $11.50 per share of Class A common stock. The units were sold at a price of  $10.00 per
175

share, generating gross proceeds to us of  $230,000,000. Prior to the IPO closing date, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 11,100,000 private placement warrants to our Sponsor at a price of  $1.00 per private placement warrant, each exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share, generating gross proceeds to us of  $11,100,000. On August 22, 2017, the Sponsor sold 55,500 Private Placement Warrants at their original purchase price to each of Industrea’s five independent directors, or an aggregate of 277,500 private placement warrants for $277,500. The private placement warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the public warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO, except that the private placement warrants are not redeemable by us so long as they (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants) are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees and they may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis. The sale of the private placement warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
On August 1, 2017, the closing date of our IPO, $234,600,000 of the gross proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the private placement warrants was deposited in the trust account in the U.S. at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., with Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company acting as Trustee. Of the gross proceeds, $4,000,000 was used to pay underwriting discounts and commissions and the balance was available to pay accrued offering and formation costs, business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. Funds held in the trust account have been invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, that invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to us to pay our franchise and income tax obligations, the funds will not be released from the trust account until the earliest to occur of: (i) the completion of an initial business combination; (ii) the redemption of any shares of Class A common stock properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Industrea Charter to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of such shares of Class A common stock if we do not complete a business combination by August 1, 2019; and (iii) the redemption of 100% of the shares of Class A common stock if we are unable to complete a business combination by August 1, 2019 (subject to applicable law).
On August 17, 2017, we announced that the holders of our units may elect to separately trade the Class A common stock and warrants included in the units commencing on August 21, 2017 on the Nasdaq under the symbols “INDU” and “INDUW,” respectively. Those units not separated will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INDUU.”
Initial Business Combination
Nasdaq rules require that an initial business combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in our trust account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with an initial business combination. The Industrea Board has determined that the Business Combination meets the 80% test.
Redemption Rights for Holders of Public Shares
Pursuant to the Industrea Charter, we are providing our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem, upon the closing of the Business Combination, public shares then held by them for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our initial public offering (“IPO”), calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission totaling $8,050,000 that we will pay to the underwriters of our IPO or transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2018, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.30.
176

Our Initial Stockholders, including our Sponsor, and our other current directors and officers have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares and any public shares they may hold in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. The Founder Shares will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price.
Submission of Our Initial Business Combination to a Stockholder Vote
The Special Meeting of our stockholders to which this proxy statement/prospectus relates is to solicit your approval of the Business Combination. Unlike many other blank check companies, our public stockholders are not required to vote against the Business Combination in order to exercise their redemption rights. If the Business Combination is not completed, then public stockholders electing to exercise their redemption rights will not be entitled to receive such payments. Our Initial Stockholders, including our Sponsor, have agreed to vote any shares of Industrea common stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination.
Limitations on Redemption Rights
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Industrea Charter provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemptions with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares.
Employees
We currently have five officers. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary to our affairs until we have completed our initial business combination. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for our initial business combination and the stage of the initial business combination process we are in. We do not intend to have any full time employees prior to the completion of our initial business combination.

Stockholder Communications
The Industrea Board has established a process for stockholders to send communications to the Industrea Board. Stockholders may communicate with the Industrea Board generally or a specific director at any time by writing to Industrea’s Secretary, Industrea Acquisition Corp., 28 West 44th Street, Suite 501, New York, New York 10036. We review all messages received, and forward any message that reasonably appears to be a communication from a stockholder about a matter of stockholder interest that is intended for communication to the Industrea Board. Communications are sent as soon as practicable to the director to whom they are addressed, or if addressed to the Industrea Board generally, to the Chairman of the Industrea Board. Because other appropriate avenues of communication exist for matters that are not of stockholder interest, such as general business complaints or employee grievances, communications that do not relate to matters of stockholder interest are not forwarded to the Industrea Board.
Director Independence
Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of the Industrea Board be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Industrea Board has determined that Messrs. Armstrong, Brown, Hall, Hodges and Rooney are “independent directors” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
The Industrea Board recognizes that the leadership structure and combination or separation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman roles is driven by the needs of Industrea at any point in time. As a result, no policy exists requiring combination or separation of leadership roles and our governing documents do not mandate a particular structure. This has allowed the Industrea Board the flexibility to establish the most appropriate structure for Industrea at any given time. Currently, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman roles are separately held by Mr. Howard D. Morgan and Mr. David A.B. Brown, respectively.
The Industrea Board is actively involved in overseeing our risk management process. The Industrea Board focuses on our general risk management strategy and ensures that appropriate risk mitigation strategies are implemented by management. Further, operational and strategic presentations by management to the Industrea Board include consideration of the challenges and risks of our businesses, and the Industrea Board and management actively engage in discussion on these topics. In addition, each of the Industrea Board’s committees considers risk within its area of responsibility. For example, our Audit Committee provides oversight to legal and compliance matters and assesses the adequacy of our risk-related internal controls. In addition, our Compensation Committee considers risk and structures our executive compensation programs, if any, to provide incentives to appropriately reward executives for growth without undue risk taking.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of our officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of an entity that has one or more executive directors serving on the Industrea Board.
Number and Terms of Office of Officers and Directors
The Industrea Board consists of eight members. The Industrea Board is divided into three classes, with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual meeting of stockholders) serving a three-year term. In accordance with Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, we are not required to hold an annual meeting until one year after our first fiscal year end following our listing on Nasdaq. The term of office of the first class of directors,
181

consisting of Thomas K. Armstrong, Jr. and Gerard F. Rooney, will expire at our first annual meeting of stockholders. The term of office of the second class of directors, consisting of David A.B. Brown, Brian Hodges and David G. Hall, will expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders. The term of office of the third class of directors, consisting of Howard D. Morgan, Heather L. Faust and Tariq Osman, will expire at the third annual meeting of stockholders.
Our officers are appointed by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. The Industrea Board is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our bylaws as it deems appropriate. Our bylaws provide that our officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Managing Directors, Managing Directors, President, Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Secretaries and such other offices as may be determined by the board of directors.
Committees of the Industrea Board
The Industrea Board has two standing committees: an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. Each of our Audit Committee and our Compensation Committee is composed solely of independent directors.
Audit Committee
The Industrea Board has established an Audit Committee of the Board. Audit Committee members include Messrs. Armstrong, Brown, Hall, Hodges and Rooney. Mr. Rooney serves as chairman of the Audit Committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three members of the audit committee. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, the rules of Nasdaq and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors. Messrs. Armstrong, Brown, Hall, Hodges and Rooney qualify as independent directors under applicable rules. Each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate and the Industrea Board has determined that Mr. Brown qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.
We have adopted an Audit Committee Charter, which details the principal functions of the Audit Committee, including:

the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;

pre-approving all audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;

setting clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent registered public accounting firm, including but not limited to, as required by applicable laws and regulations;

setting clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public accounting firm describing (i) the independent registered public accounting firm’s internal quality-control procedures, (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities within the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such issues and (iii) all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and us to assess the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence;

reviewing and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC prior to us entering into such transaction; and
182


reviewing with management, the independent registered public accounting firm, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published reports that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.
Our Audit Committee Charter is filed as an exhibit to our registration statement in connection with our IPO. A copy of our Audit Committee Charter is available, free of charge, from Industrea by writing to Industrea’s Secretary, Industrea Acquisition Corp., 28 West 44th Street, Suite 501, New York, New York 10036.
Compensation Committee
The Industrea Board has established a Compensation Committee of the Board. Compensation Committee members include Messrs. Armstrong, Brown, Hall, Hodges and Rooney. Mr. Armstrong serves as chairman of the Compensation Committee.
We have adopted a Compensation Committee Charter which details the principal functions of the Compensation Committee, including:

reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, if any is paid by us, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation;

reviewing and approving on an annual basis the compensation, if any is paid by us, of all of our other officers;

reviewing on an annual basis our executive compensation policies and plans;

implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;

assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers and employees;

if required, producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and

reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.
The Compensation Committee Charter also provides that the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the Compensation Committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.
Our Compensation Committee Charter was filed as an exhibit to our registration statement in connection with our IPO. A copy of our Compensation Committee Charter is available, free of charge, from Industrea by writing to Industrea’s Secretary, Industrea Acquisition Corp., 28 West 44th Street, Suite 501, New York, New York 10036.
183

Committee Membership, Meetings and Attendance
Each of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee of the Industrea Board is comprised entirely of independent directors.
From April 7, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017, the end of our fiscal year, our Audit Committee held one meeting, at which all members of the Audit Committee were present. The Industrea Board acted by written consent three times in fiscal year 2017. Our Compensation Committee did not hold meetings in fiscal year 2017.
We encourage all of our directors to attend our annual meetings of stockholders. This Special Meeting will be our first annual meeting.
Director Nominations
We do not have a standing nominating committee, though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee in connection with the Business Combination. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(2) of the Nasdaq rules, a majority of the independent directors may recommend a director nominee for selection by the Board. The Industrea Board believes that the independent directors can satisfactorily carry out the responsibility of properly selecting or approving director nominees without the formation of a standing nominating committee. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(1)(A) of the Nasdaq rules, all such directors are independent. As there is no standing nominating committee, we do not have a nominating committee charter in place.
The Industrea Board will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our stockholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of stockholders). Our stockholders that wish to nominate a director for election to the Board should follow the procedures set forth in our bylaws.
We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the Industrea Board considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of our common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. These reporting persons are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of such forms, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2017 there were no delinquent filers.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees that complies with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq. The Code of Ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business. We have previously filed copies of our form Code of Ethics, our form of Audit Committee Charter and our form of Compensation Committee Charter as exhibits to our registration statement in connection with our IPO. You may review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request to us in writing at 28 West 44th Street, Suite 501, New York, New York 10036 or by telephone at (212) 871-1107. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Conflicts of Interest
Argand Partners manages several investment vehicles. Funds managed by Argand Partners or its affiliates may compete with us for business combination opportunities. If these funds decide to pursue any such opportunity, we may be precluded from procuring such opportunities. In addition, investment ideas
184

generated within Argand may be suitable for both us and for a current or future Argand fund and may be directed to such investment vehicle rather than to us. Neither Argand nor members of our management team who are also employed by Argand have any obligation to present us with any opportunity for a potential business combination of which they become aware, unless presented to such member solely in his or her capacity as an officer of the company. Argand and/or our management, in their capacities as employees of Argand or in their other endeavors, currently are required to present certain investment opportunities and potential business combinations to the various related entities described above, current Argand investment vehicles, or third parties, before they present such opportunities to us. Argand and our management may have similar obligations to future investment vehicles or third parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may, at our option, pursue an initial business combination opportunity jointly with one or more entities affiliated with Argand (an “Affiliated Joint Acquisition”) opportunity with any such fund or other investment vehicle, but such parties would co-invest only if permitted by applicable regulatory and other legal limitations and to the extent considered appropriate. Such entity may co-invest with us in the target business at the time of our initial business combination, or we could raise additional proceeds to complete the initial business combination by making a specified future issuance to any such fund or vehicle.
Argand and each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to other entities pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present an initial business combination opportunity. For example, Argand and certain of its officers currently are obligated by contract to offer or allocate certain investment opportunities first to specific private funds managed by them. Accordingly, if any of our officers or directors becomes aware of an initial business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such other entity. We do not believe, however, that the fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of Argand and our officers or directors will materially affect our ability to complete our initial business combination. In addition, we may, at our option, pursue an Affiliated Joint Acquisition opportunity with an entity to which Argand or an officer or director has a fiduciary or contractual obligation. Any such entity may co-invest with us in the target business at the time of our initial business combination, or we could raise additional proceeds to complete the initial business combination by making a specified future issuance to any such entity. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that we renounce our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of our company and such opportunity is one we are legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue, and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to us without violating another legal obligation.
Our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed not to participate in the formation of, or become an officer or director of, any other blank check company such as our company until we have entered into a definitive agreement regarding our initial business combination or we have failed to complete our initial business combination within 24 months after the closing of our IPO.
Potential investors should also be aware of the following other potential conflicts of interest:

None of our officers or directors is required to commit his or her full time to our affairs and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating his or her time among various business activities.

In the course of their other business activities, our officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to us as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated. Our management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.

Our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and any public shares held by them in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. Additionally, our Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares held by them if we fail to consummate our
185

initial business combination within 24 months after the closing of our IPO. If we do not complete our initial business combination within such time period, the proceeds of the sale of the private placement warrants held in the trust account will be used to fund the redemption of our public shares, and the private placement warrants will expire worthless. With certain limited exceptions, the Founder Shares will not be transferable, assignable by our Sponsor until the earlier of: (A) one year after the completion of our initial business combination or (B) subsequent to our initial business combination, (x) if the last sale price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. With certain limited exceptions, the private placement warrants and the Class A common stock underlying such warrants, will not be transferable, assignable or salable by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. Since our Sponsor and officers and directors may directly or indirectly own common stock and warrants, our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination.

Our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination.

Our Sponsor, officers or directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating an initial business combination and financing arrangements as we may obtain loans from our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or any of our officers or directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of  $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period.
The conflicts described above may not be resolved in our favor.
In general, officers and directors of a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if:

the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;

the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business; and

it would not be fair to our company and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the corporation.
Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. Furthermore, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that we renounce our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of our company and such opportunity is one we are legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue, and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to us without violating another legal obligation.

Accordingly, if any of the above executive officers, directors or director nominees becomes aware of an initial business combination opportunity which is suitable for any of the above entities to which he or she has current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such other entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity.
We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our Sponsor, officers or directors. In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with such a company, we, or a committee of independent directors, would obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm which is a member of FINRA, or from an independent accounting firm, that such an initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.
187

In the event that we submit our initial business combination to our public stockholders for a vote, pursuant to the letter agreement, our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to vote any Founder Shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the offering (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of our initial business combination.
Our Initial Stockholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and their public shares, if any, in favor of the Business Combination.
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
The Industrea Charter provides that our officers and directors will be indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law, as it now exists or may in the future be amended. In addition, the Industrea Charter provides that our directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages to us or our stockholders for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, unless they violated their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, acted in bad faith, knowingly or intentionally violated the law, authorized unlawful payments of dividends, unlawful stock purchases or unlawful redemptions, or derived an improper personal benefit from their actions as directors.
We also entered into agreements with our officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in the Industrea Charter. Our bylaws also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director or employee for any liability arising out of his or her actions, regardless of whether Delaware law would permit such indemnification. We purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors.
These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
We believe that these provisions, the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced officers and directors
Executive Compensation
None of our officers has received any cash or other compensation for services rendered to us. We have agreed to pay each of our independent directors $50,000 per year commencing on the date of our IPO prospectus for services rendered as board members prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Commencing on the date of our IPO prospectus, we have agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. No compensation of any kind, including any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan, will be paid by us to our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any affiliate of our Sponsor or officers, prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial business combination will be made using funds held outside the trust account. Other than quarterly audit committee review of such payments, we do not expect to have any additional controls in place governing our reimbursement payments to our directors and executive officers for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination.
188

After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting or management fees from the combined company. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommended to the Industrea Board for determination, either by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors on the Industrea Board.
We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after our initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers or directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment or service.
After the completion of our Business Combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the post-combination company. For a discussion of our executive compensation arrangements after the closing of the Business Combination, please see the section entitled “Newco Management After the Business Combination.”
Audit Committee Report

INDUSTREA MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of Industrea’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on April 7, 2017 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “business combination”). Although we are not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating an initial business combination, we intend to focus on manufacturing and service companies in the industrial sector. Our Sponsor is Industrea Alexandria LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.
The registration statement for our IPO was declared effective on July 26, 2017. On August 1, 2017, we consummated our IPO of 23,000,000 units, including the issuance of 3,000,000 units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their overallotment option in full at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $230 million. Each unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one public warrant. Each public warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of  $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. We incurred offering costs of  $13.3 million, inclusive of  $8.05 million in deferred underwriting commissions.
Simultaneously with the closing of our IPO, we consummated the private placement (the “private placement”) of 11,100,000 private placement warrants at a price of  $1.00 per private placement warrant with our Sponsor generating gross proceeds of approximately $11.1 million. Each private placement warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share.
On August 22, 2017, the Sponsor sold 55,500 private placement warrants at their original purchase price to each of Industrea’s five independent directors, or an aggregate of 277,500 private placement warrants for $277,500. Prior to the consummation of the IPO, on April 10, 2017, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 Founder Shares for an aggregate purchase price of  $25,000. In April and May 2017, the Sponsor transferred a total of 28,750 Founder Shares to each of our five independent director nominees at their original purchase price.
Upon the closing of the IPO and private placement, $234.6 million from the net proceeds of the sale of the units in the IPO and the private placement was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. The funds in the trust account were invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of an initial business combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the trust account.
Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the private placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied toward consummating an initial business combination.
If we are unable to complete an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO (the “Combination Period”), we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any),
191

subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As indicated in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, at June 30, 2018, we had approximately $830,000 in cash and marketable securities, approximately $2.1 million of interest income available to pay for franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) and a working capital deficit of approximately $648,000.
Through June 30, 2018, our liquidity needs have been satisfied through receipt of a $25,000 capital contribution from the Sponsor in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares to the Sponsor, $224,403 in loans from the Sponsor, the proceeds from the consummation of the private placement not held in trust account, and approximately $445,000 from interest income withdrawn from the trust account to pay franchise and income taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2018. We repaid such loans from the Sponsor in full on August 1, 2017.
We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the trust account (less deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay franchise and income taxes. We estimate our annual franchise tax obligations, based on the number of shares of our common stock authorized and outstanding, to be $200,000, which is the maximum amount of annual franchise taxes payable by us as a Delaware corporation per annum, which we may pay from funds from the IPO held outside of the trust account or from interest earned on the funds held in our trust account and released to us for this purpose. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the trust account. We expect the interest earned on the amount in the trust account will be sufficient to pay our income taxes. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
If our estimates of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating our initial business combination is less than the actual amount necessary to do so, or the amount of interest available to us from the trust account is less than we expect as a result of the current interest rate environment, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial business combination. Following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.
In February 2018, we entered into an expense reimbursement agreement (the “Reimbursement Agreement”) with the sellers of a potential business combination target (the “Sellers”). Discussions regarding the proposed transaction were terminated in February 2018. Pursuant to the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement, the Sellers agreed to reimburse us for fees incurred, in connection with the transaction, from December 19, 2017 and through the date of termination. During the first quarter of 2018, we received $1,275,067 from the Sellers as the final settlement of amounts owed under the Reimbursement Agreement. Any remaining unreimbursed expenses will be financed with proceeds held outside of the trust account or with a working capital loan from the Sponsor. The reimbursement amount was recorded as offset against general and administrative costs in the accompanying Statement of Operations.
192

In connection with Industrea’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, management has determined that the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about Industrea’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should Industrea be required to liquidate after August 1, 2019.
Critical Accounting Policy
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. Our Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 21,867,235 and 21,815,963 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption respectively, are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of our balance sheets.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity since inception up to July 26, 2017 was in preparation for our IPO, and since the offering, our activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial business combination. We will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial business combination. Our expenses are primarily comprised of expenses related to public company compliance and due diligence expenses incurred in connection with searching for an initial business combination.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we had net income of approximately $355,000, which consisted of approximately $1.1 million in interest income, offset by approximately $489,000 in general and administrative costs, approximately $59,000 in franchise tax expense, and approximately $224,000 of income tax expense.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we had net income of approximately $523,000, which consisted of approximately $2.0 million in interest income, offset by approximately $969,000 in general and administrative costs, approximately $104,000 in franchise tax expense and approximately $397,000 of income tax expense.
For the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through June 30, 2017, we had a net loss of  $874, which consisted of general and administrative costs.
Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On April 10, 2017, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 Founder Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. In April and May 2017, the Sponsor transferred a total of 28,750 Founder Shares to each of Industrea’s five independent director nominees at their original purchase price. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of our initial business combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their Founder Shares into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment, at any time. The initial stockholders agreed to forfeit up to 750,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. On August 1, 2017, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option. As a result, 750,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
193

Our Initial Stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the initial business combination; or (B) subsequent to the initial business combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial business combination, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.
Private Placement
Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 11,100,000 private placement warrants at $1.00 per private placement warrant, generating gross proceeds of  $11.1 million in the aggregate in a private placement. Each private placement warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the private placement warrants were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the trust account. If we do not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the private placement warrants will expire worthless. The private placement warrants are non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
On August 22, 2017, the Sponsor sold 55,500 private placement warrants at their original purchase price of  $1.00 per private placement warrant to each of Industrea’s five independent directors, or an aggregate of 277,500 private placement warrants for $277,500.
The Initial Stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their private placement warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination.
Related Party Loans
On August 1, 2017, we repaid in full an aggregate of  $224,403 loaned to us by the Sponsor to cover expenses related to the IPO pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note was non-interest bearing.
In addition, the Sponsor paid for certain operating expenses on behalf of Industrea. As of June 30, 2018, we owe approximately $22,000 to the Sponsor.
To finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If we complete a business combination, we would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the trust account released to us. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the trust account. In the event that a business combination does not close, Industrea may use a portion of proceeds held outside the trust account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the trust account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of  $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants.
Administrative Support Agreement and Officer and Director Compensation
We have agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of  $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support, commencing on July 27, 2017 through the earlier of our consummation of an initial business combination or our liquidation.
In addition, we have agreed to pay each of the five independent directors $50,000 per year commencing July 26, 2017 through the earlier of our consummation of a business combination or liquidation.
194

We recognized an aggregate of  $92,500 and $185,000 in expenses incurred in connection with the aforementioned arrangements with the related parties on our Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
Contractual Obligations
As of June 30, 2018, we did not have any long-term debt, capital or operating lease obligations or purchase obligations. We are a party to an administrative support agreement in which we will pay the Sponsor for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support in an amount not to exceed $10,000 per month as described above.
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares and private placement warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into concurrently with the IPO. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a business combination. However, the registration rights agreement provides that we will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, on the earlier of  (A) one year after the completion of our initial business combination or (B) subsequent to our initial business combination, (x) if the last sale price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property and (ii) in the case of the private placement warrants and the respective Class A common stock underlying such warrants, 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
We granted the underwriters a 45-day option from July 26, 2017 to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the initial public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions, which was fully exercised on August 1, 2017.
We paid an underwriting discount of  $0.20 per unit, or $4.6 million in the aggregate, upon the consummation of the IPO. In addition, $0.35 per unit, or $8.05 million in the aggregate, of deferred underwriting commissions will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the trust account solely in the event that we complete an initial business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations.
JOBS Act
On April 5, 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private

INFORMATION ABOUT CPH
CPH Business Overview
CPH is a leading provider of concrete pumping services in the highly fragmented U.S. and U.K. markets based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brands in both markets (Brundage-Bone and Camfaud, respectively). Concrete pumping is a highly specialized method of concrete placement that requires highly-skilled operators to position a truck-mounted fully-articulating boom for precise delivery of ready-mix concrete from mixer trucks to placing crews on a job site. CPH’s large fleet of specialized pumping equipment and highly-trained operators position CPH to deliver concrete placement solutions that facilitate substantial labor cost savings to customers, shorten concrete placement times, enhance worksite safety and improve construction quality. CPH operates a fee-based revenue model with no bonding requirements.
Brundage-Bone was founded in 1983 by Jack Brundage and Dale Bone in Denver, Colorado. The co-founders, who set out to build the leading concrete pumping services company in the U.S., entered the Dallas market in 1984 and subsequently executed CPH’s first strategic acquisition in Seattle in 1986. Since its founding, CPH has completed more than 45 acquisitions expanding throughout the U.S., and in November 2016, CPH entered the U.K. market. Today, CPH is the number one player in every region it serves and is more than four times larger than the next competitor in the U.S. and approximately ten times larger than the next competitor in the U.K. based on fleet size. CPH’s industry includes approximately 1,000 regionally focused companies, many of which CPH believes are undercapitalized, utilize aged equipment and operate only smaller and significantly fewer boom pumps. In a typical market, CPH competes with only one or two other concrete pumping companies that can perform the larger and more complex projects that CPH can perform.
As the only nationally-scaled provider of concrete pumping in the U.S. and U.K. with 35-years of experience, CPH has the most comprehensive fleet and highly-skilled operators to provide quality service and is especially suited to support large and technically complex construction projects. CPH’s fleet’s size and breadth of operating capabilities allow CPH to target such larger and more complex jobs (which generally command higher price points) compared to smaller competitors with more limited fleet and operator resources, and also allows CPH to pursue multiple large projects concurrently. CPH has actively positioned its business towards commercial and infrastructure construction projects, while continuing to pursue profitable residential opportunities. CPH serves a large base of more than 8,000 customers with low customer concentration; CPH’s top 10 customers represented less than 10% of revenue in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017. CPH is able to leverage its scale to move assets across the U.S. and the U.K. depending on which regions show stronger market conditions.
CPH’s fleet is operated by approximately 662 experienced employees as of April 30, 2018, each of whom is required to complete rigorous training and safety programs. As of April 30, 2018, CPH’s fleet of 936 total pieces of equipment consisted of 616 boom pumps, ranging in size from 17 to 65 meters, 57 placing booms, 15 telebelts and 248 stationary pumps and other specialized concrete placing equipment. CPH maintains the flexibility to move assets between branches depending on market conditions. CPH performs substantially all of its repair and maintenance work in-house through a staff of 93 mechanics so as to maximize fleet availability and performance levels. CPH operators are paid on an hourly basis and only when they are deployed on jobs, demonstrating CPH’s commitment to comprehensive and disciplined labor cost management. CPH Management estimates that 70% of CPH’s total costs are variable.
CPH is also the leading provider of concrete waste management services in the U.S. market based on fleet size, operating under the only established, national brand (Eco-Pan). After concrete is used at a construction site, the ready-mix trucks, concrete pump trucks and other equipment are required to be washed out to remove the remaining concrete before it hardens. U.S. federal and state environmental regulations regulate the safe and environmentally compliant disposal of this concrete waste (“washout”). CPH provides a full-service, cost-effective, regulatory-compliant solution to manage environmental issues caused by concrete washout, branded Eco-Pan, which is highly complementary to CPH’s core concrete pumping service. Eco-Pan provides a route-based solution that operates from 13 locations in the U.S. as of April 30, 2018, providing watertight pans to be used to collect concrete washout. Eco-Pan’s growth has been supported by heightened environmental regulations, potentially severe penalties on contractors who do not
197

comply, and high costs associated with traditional labor-intensive concrete washout methods. CPH leverages its existing Brundage-Bone and Camfaud customers to cross-sell Eco-Pan as a value-added, cost-effective, regulatory-compliant solution to properly manage environmental issues caused by concrete.
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017, CPH generated revenues of  $211.2 million and net income of  $0.9 million. Pro Forma Adjusted Revenue and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA for the same period were $236.6 million and $78.5 million, respectively. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Certain CPH Historical and Projected Financial Information.”
CPH’s key service segments are summarized below:
U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone:   CPH provides concrete pumping services in the U.S. with a fleet of 548 equipment units from a diversified footprint of 80 locations across 22 states as of April 30, 2018 and operates under the brand Brundage-Bone. CPH provides operated concrete pumping services, for which CPH bills customers on a negotiated time and volume basis based on the duration of the job and yards of concrete pumped. Additional charges (such as a fuel surcharge and travel costs) are frequently added based on the local market competitive environment and specific project requirements. Typically, CPH sends a single operator with each concrete pump. CPH does not take ownership of the concrete and thus has minimal inventory or product liability risk. CPH typically does not engage in fixed-bid work or have surety bonding requirements. CPH operates a daily fee-based revenue model regardless of project completion. Brundage-Bone is a leading provider of concrete pumping services in the U.S. based on fleet size and the only competitor with a multi-regional footprint in a highly fragmented industry. CPH’s large fleet of specialized pumping equipment and highly-trained operators position CPH to deliver concrete placement solutions that CPH Management believe facilitate substantial labor cost savings to its customers, shorten concrete placement times, enhance worksite safety and improve construction quality. CPH has actively positioned the Brundage-Bone business towards commercial and infrastructure construction projects, while continuing to pursue profitable residential opportunities.
U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud:   On November 17, 2016, CPH formed Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. to complete the stock acquisitions of two concrete pumping companies in the U.K.: Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited, and Premier Concrete Pumping Limited, which each also owned 50% of the stock of South Coast Concrete Pumping Limited (together, the “Oxford Acquisitions”). Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc., which in turn is wholly owned by Concrete Pumping Intermediate Holdings, LLC. Following an internal restructuring, Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. changed its name to Camfaud Group Limited on April 3, 2018. CPH operates its business in the U.K. under the “Camfaud” brand name. Camfaud operates both a fixed and a mobile fleet. The fixed fleet business entails either (1) utilizing static line pumps with an accompanied operator, or (2) renting out the equipment on a long-term basis without an operator. Mobile equipment is charged to customers under a minimum hire rate (typically five to eight hours). The business model is similar to pumping in the U.S. In the U.K., CPH provides concrete pumping services with a fleet of 388 equipment units from 28 locations as of April 30, 2018. On July 3, 2017, CPH completed the stock acquisition of the U.K.-based company Reilly Concrete Pumping Ltd. (“Reilly”). The Reilly acquisition provides CPH with a more comprehensive footprint across the U.K., allowing the company to provide its diverse customer base with a truly national service offering on major infrastructure and commercial projects. Reilly’s mobile pump fleet totaled 44 pumps as of March 31, 2017.
Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan:   Eco-Pan was founded in 1999 and was acquired by CPH in 2014. Eco-Pan’s services help its customers to comply with environmental regulations, avoid fines and reduce their compliance costs. Eco-Pan is a route-based solution that operates 54 trucks and more than 5,000 custom metal pans to construction sites from 13 locations in the U.S. as of April 30, 2018. Eco-Pan charges a round-trip delivery fee and weekly or monthly rental rate for its pans, which provides a turn-key solution to the customer compared to the alternative of bagging the waste concrete, pouring it into an on-site lined pit, or disposing of it into trash dumpsters and arranging for a pick-up. Eco-Pan delivers watertight pans to job sites to collect concrete washwater, and picks up the pans to deliver to recycling centers, passing disposal fees onto the customer. To the extent that pans are held at the job site for an extended number of days or irregular waste is found in the pan, Eco-Pan charges incremental fees. Eco-Pan’s trucks are designed to allow for the pick-up and re-delivery of multiple pans, leading to
198

significant incremental efficiencies as “route densities” increase. CPH believes that Eco-Pan is highly complementary to Brundage-Bone, as customers’ decision makers for purchasing concrete pumping services also typically handle the disposal of waste concrete. Currently, Eco-Pan operates in 12 of the 22 major markets that Brundage-Bone serves, providing additional growth opportunities from rolling out Eco-Pan in the other Brundage-Bone geographies. CPH Management also believe that cross-selling of Eco-Pan services to Brundage-Bone’s customers is a substantial revenue growth opportunity for the combined company. The combination of the two businesses also presents the opportunity for cost-saving synergies, as in some cases the Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan fleets can be co-located at the same facilities, serviced by a common set of mechanics, administered by the same office staff and marketed by the same salespeople, while increasing “route densities” for pan pick-ups and deliveries.
CPH Industry Overview
Industry Overview — Concrete Pumping
There are two primary methods of placing concrete when direct pouring (“tail-gating”) is not an option: traditional methods (such as using wheelbarrows and cranes and buckets) and concrete pumping. Traditional methods are both labor-intensive and time-intensive, requiring loading materials into containers, hauling the containers to the appropriate location and subsequently returning the containers to the concrete mixer to be re-filled. Concrete pumping, by contrast, provides a safer, more cost-effective and more time-efficient concrete placement solution, in which concrete is continuously pressure pumped through a boom and hose directly to the specified area. Except where direct pouring is feasible (such as for highways and level sites where a ready-mix truck can park within approximately 15 feet of the concrete installation), concrete pumping continues to be the method of choice over traditional concrete placement methods, as it lowers construction costs, shortens job times, allows for better access to challenging pour locations and enhances worksite safety. A concrete pump can empty a ready-mix concrete truck in as little as four minutes and has the technical capability of being able to place concrete at distances of up to 1,000 feet vertically and 4,000 feet horizontally. By contrast, traditional methods such as using wheelbarrows are more labor and time intensive with up to 200 wheelbarrow loads required to empty a ready-mix truck. Given this ability, concrete pumping is the placement method of choice for technical jobs or when concrete must be placed in harder-to-reach areas, including multi-story commercial and residential projects as well as infrastructure projects such as tunnels and bridges.
Advantages of Concrete Pumping
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-org1.jpg]
199

Concrete pumping represents only approximately 1-2% of overall project cost for medium and large jobs but is highly critical due to the highly-perishable nature of concrete, which has only an approximate 90-minute life before hardening. During this time, concrete must be transported from the concrete plant to the worksite before it starts to harden. Concrete can represent as much as 10-12% of total construction project cost, and the cost of concrete has steadily increased over the last several years in the U.S. A wasted batch of concrete is costly to the contractor, who must often work under a fixed budget and tight timeline. These dynamics make customers relatively price-inelastic with regards to concrete pumping services. Concrete pumping helps its contractor customers avoid the potentially costly headaches associated with traditional methods of concrete placement. Concrete pumping enables greater speed and efficiency, ability to access hard to reach areas, increased safety, enhanced consistency of the concrete pour, and less labor intensity as compared to alternatives.
Comparing Concrete Pumping to Other Methods of Concrete Placement
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-org2.jpg]
Concrete pumping is typically used for foundations, walls and floors of buildings. In particular, concrete pumping is well-suited for:

Multi-story buildings:   Buildings above grade cannot use tail-gating to pour concrete, and wheelbarrows and crane and bucket pouring are more labor-intensive and time-intensive;

Urban construction or areas with limited space:   Concrete pumping requires less space and the equipment can be located farther from the construction site than tail-gating;

Projects with rapid turnaround times:   Concrete pumping is faster than other placement methods as concrete pumps are capable of placing over 200 cubic yards of concrete per hour, emptying an entire ready-mix truck in as little as four minutes (similar time as tail-gating), as compared to 45 minutes needed to unload a truck using a crane and bucket; and
200


Large scale projects:   Larger commercial, multi-family and public projects such as tunnels and bridges often use pumping to move large amounts of concrete in a shorter time compared to tail-gating, and are often constrained in smaller footprints which make it more difficult to place concrete in the middle of the site using traditional methods.
Common Applications for Concrete Placement Methods
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-org3.jpg]
Selecting a Concrete Pumping Provider
Customers consider equipment availability, service reliability, technical expertise and safety to be key purchasing criteria when choosing a concrete pumping provider. Price is a lower level consideration given that the cost of pumping is typically only 1-2% of total project costs of medium and larger jobs, whereas the value in terms of labor saved, accurate placement, and enhanced safety is relatively high. Equipment availability is important as contractors want to avoid having to hire several companies if the project requires several pump types or specialty equipment. For more complex commercial or infrastructure jobs, contractors place a premium on concrete pumpers who can provide specialized equipment. Furthermore, contractors value technical expertise and a commitment to safety, as these factors influence the perception of reliability, which is critical to ensuring on-time projects and avoiding worksite incidents. Contractors cannot afford to hire an inexperienced operator who could potentially risk the job timeline. Concrete pumping companies can therefore differentiate themselves by offering a wide range of equipment, reliable, high-quality service and a high degree of safety and compliance.
Competition
The concrete pumping industry is highly fragmented. CPH believes there are approximately 1,000 industry participants in the United States, operating an average of seven pumps each, with few competitors having a multi-regional presence and no other competitor having a national presence.
Due to servicing requirements and equipment transportation costs, most competition is at the local level. CPH estimates that approximately 65-75% of the U.S. market is served by small, local providers. CPH is the largest multi-regional concrete pumping provider in the U.S. based on fleet size, serving 22 states as of April 30, 2018. CPH believes the next largest competitor has operations in four states. National and regional service providers such as CPH enjoy competitive advantages over smaller, independent providers, which do not have the financial resources to maintain and support a diverse equipment fleet.
CPH estimates that it is more than four times the size of its next largest competitor in the U.S., by fleet size. CPH has the largest and most diversified fleet in the industry, which increases availability and provides contractors assurance that CPH will have the equipment they require when they need it. While CPH has
201

616 boom pumps in the United States as of April 30, 2018, CPH believes the average local competitor has a fleet size of 5-10 pumps and regional competitors have an average 50-60 pumps each. Relative to the U.S., the U.K. has a higher proportion of regional players. CPH is the leader in every city and region of the U.K. and is approximately ten times larger than its next largest competitor, by fleet size.
Concrete Pumping Demand Growth in the U.S. and U.K.
The attractive price-value proposition of concrete pumping has played a key role in the growing penetration of the concrete pumping industry. CPH believes that concrete pumping services typically represent only approximately 1-2% of total project cost for medium to large construction jobs. Notwithstanding the low cost of concrete pumping, these services are deemed critical due to the highly perishable life of concrete (typically approximately 90 minutes) and the high cost that concrete can represent of total project costs (as much as 10-12% of total project cost). CPH believes that most concrete pumping customers are therefore relatively price inelastic with regard to finding a reliable method to execute on their concrete placement requirements.
CPH believes that concrete pumping is estimated to represent 34% of total concrete placed in both the U.S. and U.K. This level of U.S. penetration is up from approximately 20% in 2000, but still meaningfully below estimated penetration levels of Continental Europe and the Middle East. CPH believes that the share of concrete pumping will continue to grow over the next decade. Growth in concrete pumping is expected to grow in the future and to be driven by several factors including commercial construction increasingly occurring in space constrained, urban areas (meaning less access for concrete trucks), residential developers building houses closer together to meet growing housing demand, urbanization trends continuing, construction labor costs continuing to increase as demand for skilled labor grows (which benefits concrete pumping given it is less labor-intensive than traditional concrete placement methods), and an increasing focus on worksite safety.
Concrete Placement by Method
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-bar4.jpg]
Demand for concrete pumping is expected to continue to grow in both the U.S. and U.K. markets. Expenditures for concrete pumping are expected to grow by approximately 7% annually through 2021 in the U.S., and by approximately 2% annually through 2021 in the U.K., according to CPH projections. U.S. demand growth for concrete pumping is expected to be driven by positive trends in commercial, residential and infrastructure construction, as well as increases in penetration of concrete pumping as a percentage of overall concrete placement. Potential upside to forecasted growth of concrete pumping in the U.S. may result from U.S. tax reform and a potential infrastructure investment program. Growth of concrete pumping in the U.K. is expected to be supported by potential U.K. infrastructure investment programs including multiple phases of the $77 billion High-Speed Rail 2 project.

Industry Overview — Concrete Waste Management Services
After concrete is used at a construction site, the ready-mix trucks, concrete pump trucks and other equipment must be washed out to remove the remaining concrete before it hardens. Concrete washout water (or “washwater”) is a slurry that contains toxic metals, is highly caustic and corrosive and contains elevated pH levels near 12 (compared to water at 7). Washwater can be harmful for wildlife, inhibit plant growth and contaminate groundwater. If not properly disposed of, washwater can percolate down through the soil, altering soil chemistry, and run off the construction site to adjoining roadside storm drains that discharge to rivers, lakes, or inlets. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) provides regulations for construction storm water management in the U.S. as regulated by the Clean Water Act and the Safe Drinking Water Act. The EPA ensures compliance with national regulations via on-site compliance monitoring, including on-site inspections and investigations of permits, off-site compliance monitoring such as data collection, program coordination and oversight, and support and solutions for overburdened communities. The EPA mandates that construction sites collect and retain all the concrete washwater and solids in leakproof containers to prevent the caustic material from contaminating ground or surface water. While EPA regulations serve as a national standard, states are ultimately responsible for enforcement within their borders, and many states have more stringent regulations than the EPA standard. For example, California, Washington, Oregon and Colorado have strict regulations requiring washout storage containers to be inspected prior to use, while Arizona, Florida and Texas hold the contractor responsible for daily inspections of the waste storage vicinity. Regulatory authorities can impose severe fines of up to $250,000 on contractors that do not comply. Environmental enforcement has increased significantly over the last decade, posing a major challenge for construction contractors.
As regulations and the density of construction projects increase, CPH believes contractors and builders are increasingly looking for waste management service providers who can provide turnkey solutions that manage washout collection and disposal. Larger builders and contractors are typically earlier adopters of such turnkey solutions, increasing awareness for mid-tier and local contractors who see the solutions working on-site.

Options for Concrete Washwater Containment
Concrete washout management services allow contractors to outsource the management of concrete waste. In addition to regulatory considerations, washout management services enable contractors to more effectively allocate their workforce to higher priority activities on the job site, alleviating the increasing labor costs which have hindered the construction industry. CPH believes that washout management services, including Eco-Pan’s offering, currently collect an estimated 10-15% of concrete washout volume generated in the U.S. Alternative solutions include self-managed washout pits (an estimated 38% of the market), washout roll-off bins (an estimated 31% of the market), dumpsters, vinyl and hay bale pits, plastic pits, or no solution (e.g. illegal dumping). These alternatives are typically less mobile, messier, and are often not leak-proof.
Methods of Concrete Washout Management
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-org4.jpg]
CPH believes that CPH’s proprietary Eco-Pan washout pans comprise a unique, disruptive washout management solution. Eco-Pan is a route-based, full-service, leak-proof system that allows for regulatory-compliant and cost-effective capture and recycling of concrete washwater. Eco-Pan delivers watertight and sealable metal pans to job sites where contractors use the pans to collect concrete waste, then Eco-Pan picks up the filled pans and delivers the washwater to authorized recycling facilities. Relative to Eco-Pan, alternatives may result in a higher risk of overflowing, thereby risking fines for contractors operating the site, require more labor to manage, require a larger footprint or lack on-site mobility.
Selecting a Concrete Washwater Containment Provider
CPH believes that the key factors driving a contractor’s decision in selecting a concrete washwater containment solution include: a desire for a simple concrete waste management solution, a requirement to meet environmental regulations and avoid penalties, a reasonable price-value proposition (though price is not the main deciding factor), a small physical footprint, convenient scheduling and a clean worksite to promote efficiency and safety.
204

Key Customer Decision-making Factors — Concrete Washout Management
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-table2.jpg]
CPH believes Eco-Pan ranks high on all of customers’ key decision-making criteria above, on the basis of Eco-Pan’s full-service, leak-proof system that allows for regulatory-compliant and cost-effective capture and recycling of concrete washwater. Eco-Pan further requires a small physical footprint (particularly as compared to traditional alternatives such as washout pits) and offers customers convenient and frequent delivery and pick-up times. The level of convenience offered to Eco-Pan customers is further supported by the route-density Eco-Pan is able to achieve as the only national scaled player in the market.

Note: Market position based on LTM revenue as of April 2018. Analysis is pro forma for the financial impact of the April 2018 O’Brien acquisition (approximately $14 million of revenue on an LTM basis as of April 2018, all of which were earned providing concrete pumping services in the U.S.). U.K. (Camfaud) LTM revenue assumes constant currency adjustment based on a GBP to USD exchange rate of 1.370.
Compelling Customer Value Proposition
Customers tend to choose CPH because of its differentiated capabilities that ensure equipment and operator availability, reliable and high-quality service, and strict safety and environmental compliance. CPH strives to provide contractors with the most effective pumping equipment for their particular needs, operated by highly-trained operators that can be quickly dispatched to the job-site. Concrete pumps provide a critical service to CPH’s customers, as CPH’s equipment must arrive at the construction site before the ready-mix concrete trucks to prevent worksite delays and rejection of wet batches of concrete. Any service delays can interrupt construction, resulting in incremental costs for CPH’s customers related to stalled labor, equipment and materials, all of which typically greatly exceed the cost of concrete pumping. CPH’s regional structure, combined with its analytical tools, provide visibility to the utilization and profitability of its fleet nationwide, allowing CPH to respond efficiently to local customer needs and market trends as they develop. Additionally, CPH’s rigorous maintenance and repair program performed by CPH’s on-staff mechanics results in reduced equipment downtime and a high-level of equipment reliability for CPH’s customers. CPH is dedicated to its comprehensive recruitment, training, safety and retention programs, and CPH strives to be the employer of choice for talented employees in the concrete pumping industry. CPH also offers its customers a unique, full-service, leak-proof system that allows for regulatory-compliant and cost-effective capture and recycling of concrete washwater.

Customer Value Proposition
[MISSING IMAGE: tv502340_chrt-table3.jpg]
Considerable Benefits of Scale
CPH maintains the largest pumping equipment fleet with 616 boom pumps across 80 branches in the U.S. and 28 branches in the U.K., as of April 30, 2018. CPH’s large and diversified fleet (which includes specialty equipment such as placing booms and telebelts of different sizes) increases availability, providing contractors assurance that CPH will have the equipment they require when they need it. The average local competitor has a fleet size of 5-10 pumps and regional competitors have an average of 50-60 pumps. Each local market typically has only one to three scale players. Because CPH faces limited competition with regards to the size and type of fleet and operators necessary for pumping jobs, and even less competition capable of performing multiple large jobs simultaneously, CPH is often able to price its services at higher hourly and yardage rates while delivering substantial value and flexibility to its customers. Furthermore, CPH’s scale allows it to efficiently move equipment around the country to areas with the highest local demand, which helps maximize equipment utilization rates and pricing. Finally, CPH’s scale allows for favorable pricing terms with equipment suppliers. Due to the significant investment and time required to develop a large-scale fleet, technical expertise, customer base and broad operating footprint, CPH believes that none of its competitors or potential market entrants currently has the capability to replicate CPH’s service and fleet offering in the near term.
Platform with Significant Diversity
CPH’s broad geographic footprint, multiple service offerings, and exposure to three different end-markets provides significant operational diversity. This diversity is a key source of resiliency against changing market conditions.

Service Oriented Business Model with Strong Cash Flow Characteristics
CPH is a construction services business that provides specialized equipment with highly-trained operators. CPH believes its customers are much more focused on quality and timeliness of service than on price, and tend not to be as price sensitive as the cost of CPH’s services is generally not significant relative to the cost of the overall concrete placement of a construction project. Additionally, CPH’s equipment, on average, has a useful life of 10 to 25 years, which is significantly longer than the useful lives of most general construction equipment. In periods during which CPH’s fleet is less active, CPH incurs less labor, service and fuel costs, all of which are driven by the aggregate number of hours that CPH bills its customers. CPH estimates that 70% of CPH’s costs are variable, which CPH believes allows it to better adapt to fluctuations in economic cycles. Furthermore, CPH is able to generate significant cash through the sale of its aged assets in the global secondary market for pumping equipment. Through CPH’s proprietary analytical tools, CPH is able to deploy its fleet to meet specific client demands and maximize efficiency, which has contributed to CPH’s improved utilization of its fleet. CPH believes that its substantial asset base and high degree of operational flexibility allow it to generate positive operating cash flow throughout the business cycle. Since CPH does not take ownership of concrete or require any significant inventory, CPH has very limited working capital requirements, which further enhances its ability to generate positive operating cash flow throughout the economic cycle.
Loyal and Diverse Customer Base
CPH develops and maintains deep relationships with customers, many of whom have been using CPH’s services for decades. CPH believes that its commitment to provide its customers with consistent, high-quality service has resulted in a broad and diverse customer base, including national and regional contractors and local leaders in their respective geographies. CPH executes a high-volume of small and
208

mid-size jobs across all end-markets that provide substantial and stable revenue with no customer concentration. CPH serves a base of more than 8,000 customers (often with several projects per customer) and has an approximate 95% customer retention rate based on the top 500 customers, as of April 30, 2018. The top 10 customers represent less than 10% of revenues and have an average tenure of more than 20 years. CPH believes the loyalty of its customers is the result of its high-quality, professional services and the attractive value proposition that it offers.
Eco-Pan Provides Waste Management Solution to Largely Unmet Market Needs
Eco-Pan is a rapidly growing, turn-key solution that ensures contractors remain in compliance with environmental regulations. Eco-Pan has grown rapidly as a result of increased enforcement of environmental regulations. Eco-Pan significantly reduces the likelihood of environmental incidents that can result in costly fines, while also being competitively priced to alternative solutions and reducing labor requirements for contractors. CPH believes that Eco-Pan is highly complementary to Brundage-Bone, as customers’ decision makers for purchasing concrete pumping services also typically handle the disposal of waste concrete. Currently, Eco-Pan operates in 12 of the 22 major markets that Brundage-Bone serves, providing additional growth opportunities from rolling out Eco-Pan in the other Brundage-Bone geographies. CPH Management also believe that cross-selling of Eco-Pan services to Brundage-Bone’s customers is a substantial revenue growth opportunity for the combined company. The combination of the two businesses also presents the opportunity for cost-saving synergies, as in some cases the Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan fleets can be co-located at the same facilities, serviced by a common set of mechanics, administered by the same office staff and marketed by the same salespeople, while increasing “route densities” for pan pick-ups and deliveries. Furthermore, CPH intends to explore expanding Eco-Pan into the U.K., which represents an additional growth opportunity.
Eco-Pan’s Competitive Advantages Include Route Density, a Well-Recognized Brand, Existing Customer Relationships, Strong Product Attributes and A Focus On Compliance
Eco-Pan has several key competitive advantages that are expected to support its continued growth and protect its leading market position:

Scale and route density: Eco-Pan is the only national player of scale in the concrete washout management sector. Given Eco-Pan has more customers per region compared to competitors, it enjoys the benefits of greater route density.

Brand recognition: Eco-Pan has established strong brand recognition in the markets it serves, with limited competition from smaller, primarily local providers.

Existing customer relationships: Eco-Pan is synergistic with the CPH concrete pumping customer base, as it is able to leverage the same footprint and sell a bundled service that spans a greater portion of the construction project’s lifecycle.

Intellectual property: CPH has developed proprietary IP and know-how surrounding spill-free and leak-proof pans. Eco-Pan’s washout pans offer advantages over those of alternatives, with lids to prevent rainwater from over-flowing the pans and to prevent spills during transit.

Regulatory compliance: Eco-Pan is a proven solution that complies with all federal, state and local regulations. It is also LEED accredited, ensuring all concrete waste is disposed of at approved recycling facilities.

Successful Track Record of Executing and Integrating Acquisitions
CPH has a strong track-record of identifying, executing and integrating acquisitions. Since 1983, CPH has executed over 45 acquisitions, which has allowed CPH to expand its end-market, service offerings and geographic reach. CPH derives acquisition synergies through increasing utilization of acquired pumps, achieving higher revenue per hour due to CPH’s greater pump availability and service levels, leveraging proprietary job costing tools, reducing purchasing and overhead costs, and capitalizing on cross selling opportunities with Eco-Pan. Additionally, as the only national provider of concrete pumping, CPH is often the only bidder or exit opportunity for local firms and is able to acquire companies at attractive valuations of pre-synergy LTM Adjusted EBITDA multiples of 4.5x or less, and 3.5x or less on a post-synergy basis.
Proven and Experienced Management Team
CPH is led by a highly tenured and experienced management team with significant industry experience. CPH Management has demonstrated its ability to source, acquire and integrate attractive acquisitions:

Bruce Young (CEO) has led CPH in his current role for the past 10 years; Mr. Young’s experience in concrete pumping dates back to 1980.

Iain Humphries (CFO) joined CPH in 2016; Mr. Humphries has over 20 years of experience in international finance and management leadership.

Tony Faud (Managing Director, U.K.) manages all of CPH’s U.K. operations and has over 30 years of concrete pumping experience.
CPH’s Business Strategy
Leverage Eco-Pan Across CPH’s Operating Footprint
CPH’s concrete pumping and Eco-Pan businesses provide highly complementary services to a similar customer base, as the decision maker responsible for purchasing concrete pumping services is generally also responsible for the disposal of concrete waste. According to a CPH Management market assessment, managed solutions for washwater (including Eco-Pan) comprise approximately 15% of the total U.S. market of approximately $850 million. CPH Management estimates Eco-Pan’s current penetration at 3 – 4%, leaving significant potential for further penetration and cross-selling across CPH’s concrete pumping customer base. Eco-Pan is currently only rolled out in 11 U.S. states as of April 30, 2018 (all of which overlap with Brundage-Bone except for Washington D.C.). Furthermore, CPH intends to expand the Eco-Pan service in the U.K.
Continue to Pursue Accretive Acquisitions
CPH has a successful track record as a consolidator in the sector, having executed more than 45 accretive acquisitions since 1983. Concrete pumping represents a highly fragmented market. As the leading national provider, CPH is often contacted by its regional competitors, which are often led by founders seeking succession and/or exit strategies. CPH has been able to purchase the assets of former competitors at typical LTM Adjusted EBITDA valuations of approximately 4.5x or less on a pre-synergy basis and 3.5x or less on a post-synergy basis. CPH derives acquisition synergies from increasing equipment utilization, optimizing pricing, leveraging data analytics tools, generating purchasing synergies, rationalizing excess overhead costs and cross-selling Eco-Pan. CPH has a robust M&A pipeline that it will continue to pursue.
Expand into New Markets and Adjacent Services
With the 2016 acquisition of Camfaud as a template for successfully entering a new geographic market, CPH plans to explore leveraging acquisitions to expand internationally into Australia, Canada, Continental Europe and the Middle East. Additionally, with Eco-Pan as a template for successfully entering a new service offering, CPH is exploring expanding into adjacent services to cross-sell across its existing customer base, including tower crane rental.
210

Prioritize Larger, More Complex Projects
With CPH’s extensive equipment fleet and technical expertise, CPH will continue to pursue many of the largest, most complex commercial and infrastructure projects, such as high-rise buildings, tunnels, highway overpasses, water treatment facilities, wind farms and other industrial developments. Larger jobs require, on average, larger boom pumps, multiple pumping units and deployment of such equipment for longer periods of time. Because CPH faces limited competition that has the type of fleet and operators necessary for these jobs, and even less competition capable of performing multiple large jobs simultaneously, CPH is often able to price its services for this work at higher hourly and yardage rates while delivering substantial value to its customers. CPH believes its competitive advantages will allow it to continue to capture more of this work as commercial and infrastructure construction spending continues to rebound. At the same time, given its geographic breadth and leadership position in multiple markets across the U.S. and the U.K., CPH plans to continue to maintain a high degree of customer and project diversity.

Improve Margins by Optimizing Fleet Mix
CPH intends to maintain its disciplined policy of remaining current on fleet repair and maintenance costs in order to maximize uptime, reliability and service levels for its customers. Going forward, CPH’s capital expenditures strategy will focus on balancing the mix of small versus large boom pumps, growing and enhancing the fleet size at a pace in line with revenue growth, and maintaining an appropriate fleet age. Through the financial downturn, CPH aggressively sold older pumps and were able to keep its best-maintained, highest-valued equipment.
Maintain Disciplined Pricing Policies and Cost Controls
CPH intends to continue rigorous cost controls to continue to optimize pricing and streamline fixed costs. CPH’s proprietary job-costing analytical tools have allowed it to better understand profitability by customer and optimally price jobs based on the underlying cost structure of various jobs. While the majority of CPH’s jobs are based on purchase orders, some of its larger customers’ jobs are under six to twelve month pricing agreements. As these arrangements continue to come up for renewal, CPH intends to continue to use its proprietary analytical tools to re-price work competitively to take advantage of improvements in market dynamics and underlying economic conditions as CPH continues to implement its
211

diligent approach to cost management. CPH owns all of its equipment and has no outstanding operating leases. CPH intends to continuously look for further areas of pricing and cost improvement. CPH plans to further grow by rolling out its proprietary job-costing analytical tools in its U.K. business.
Continue to Lead Industry in Recruiting, Training and Safety
The success of CPH’s strategies ultimately depends on people, and CPH strives to be the employer of choice for highly motivated and skilled equipment operators. CPH will continue to emphasize its comprehensive training program and superior workplace safety record as providing a distinct advantage over competitors. CPH believes that it is the only multi-state concrete pumping company with a comprehensive in-house training program, dedicated safety directors and designated safety trainers in each branch. CPH will continue to provide its robust safety and risk management program, including in-house and field safety training for all of its employees and safety seminars, as well as site visits for all operators. CPH has experienced continuous improvement on its Total Recordable Incident Rate (“TRIR”) and EMR statistics, which were 1.86 and 0.97 as of the end of 2017, respectively. For the last two years, CPH’s TRIR has been continually improving as CPH has implemented safety initiatives to help ensure employees are safe on job sites. Brundage-Bone’s TRIR rating is substantially better than the U.S. industry average. CPH’s skilled employees and safety record are repeatedly cited as an important criterion for contractors that select CPH as a vendor. CPH will continue to focus on maintaining the ability of its trained operators to deliver safe, timely, premium quality concrete pumping services to its customers.
Geographic Footprint and Facilities
Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, CPH operates from a base of approximately 80 locations in 22 states in the U.S. and 28 locations in the U.K. as of April 30, 2018. CPH owns 18 locations in the United States. CPH leases primary branch facilities pursuant to the terms of the Master Lease described under “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions” and also leases satellite properties from which pumps are dispatched. Brundage-Bone leases 54 locations, Eco-Pan leases 8 locations and Camfaud leases 28 locations. Certain facilities are shared between Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan and certain locations operate at construction sites without a formal lease.

Equipment
CPH believes that it owns the most comprehensive fleet of concrete placement equipment in North America. With the industry’s largest, most technically advanced fleet, and a staff of highly trained and experienced operators, CPH is well-equipped to execute on the largest and most complex projects in both the U.S. and the U.K. Concrete pumps typically come in size ranges between 17 and 65 meters. CPH owns 100% of its fleet with an average fleet age of approximately nine years old as of April 30, 2018. CPH believes that most pieces of equipment can be extended out to useful lives of twenty years. CPH’s scale and robust in-house equipment servicing through highly-skilled mechanics ensure clients have consistent access to a breadth of specialized equipment. Further, CPH has a track record of keeping its fleet up-to-date through both investments in its fleet as well as through acquisitions of competitors, which are often structured as asset purchases that can offset growth capital expenditures, resulting in a higher return on assets than buying new units. CPH believes its scale and breadth of capabilities create a significant barrier to entry, as most competitors are not as well capitalized and are unable to replicate this offering. As of April 30, 2018, CPH’s concrete pumping equipment fleet is illustrated below.

Customers
CPH has built a large, diverse, and loyal customer base across the U.S. and the U.K. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017, CPH served a base of more than 8,000 customers (often with several projects per customer) and had an approximate 95% customer retention rate from prior year based on its top 500 customers. CPH’s top 10 customers represented less than 10% of revenues and had an average tenure of more than 20 years. CPH’s customer composition varies from year to year and is largely dependent on geographic location and general economic and construction market trends within its operating regions. CPH actively monitors regional trends and targets customers in fast-growing markets through its extensive geographic footprint and knowledge of each local construction market in each region.
CPH’s customers consist of contractors or concrete contractors that span across the commercial, infrastructure and residential end markets. CPH also sells replacement parts to smaller competitors that lack the capital and scale to independently maintain a sufficiently stocked replacement parts inventory. The contractual arrangements with customers are typically on a project-to-project purchase order basis.
Suppliers
CPH primarily purchases pumping equipment, replacement parts, and fuel for its day-to-day operations. CPH sources its concrete pumping equipment primarily from two suppliers, but there are a number of other suppliers and CPH is not dependent upon any single supplier. CPH Management believe that CPH is the industry’s largest consumer of concrete pumping supplies and, as such, has significant purchasing leverage. For example, CPH typically purchases fuel in bulk at favorable prices and utilizes onsite fuel storage facilities.
CPH’s key suppliers include the two leading concrete pump manufacturers, Schwing and Putzmeister. CPH believes that it remains a valued customer for key industry suppliers, ensuring CPH’s ability to purchase equipment, parts and supplies on favorable terms, relative to competitors. CPH believes the market for supplying equipment used in CPH’s business is increasingly competitive.
214

Employees
As of April 30, 2018, CPH had over 1,000 employees across the U.S. and the U.K., over 750 of whom are highly-skilled equipment operators and mechanics. CPH employees are highly experienced, with an average tenure for pump operators of over five years. Additionally, CPH has regional managers who, on average, have approximately 30 years of experience in the concrete pumping industry. CPH maintains a “gold standard” training program ensuring all operators can meet the requirements of any project. Operators are trained in concrete pumping as well as in basic mechanical repair, while shop managers are trained in inspection and maintenance of all critical truck systems.
Approximately 100 employees in CPH’s workforce are unionized across California, Oregon and Washington. These individuals are represented by the International Union of Operating Engineers (“IUOE”) under three separate collective bargaining agreements. CPH has historically maintained favorable relations with the IUOE, under which its operators are organized, and has not experienced any significant disputes, disagreements, strikes or work stoppages.
Safety
To CPH Management’s knowledge, CPH is the only concrete pumping company in the U.S. and the U.K. with a comprehensive, active safety program, an in-house safety department including dedicated safety directors at the corporate level, and a designated safety trainer at each branch. CPH is consistently recognized by key vendors and industry organizations (i.e., Association for General Contractors of America) for its commitment to safety. As part of CPH’s comprehensive safety management program, CPH actively tracks key safety performance indicators at each branch location to monitor safety performance, and takes corrective action when needed. Over the last two years, CPH’s TRIR has continually improved in the U.S. and U.K., with safety ratings that are significantly better than industry standards.
Legal Proceedings
CPH is a defendant in certain legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on available information, CPH Management is unable to estimate the costs, if any, to be incurred upon disposition of these matters, and therefore no provision for loss has been made. However, CPH believes the outcome of these matters is not likely to have a material effect on CPH’s future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
CPH is subject to various federal, state and local and environmental laws and regulations, including those governing the discharge of pollutants into the air or water, the management, storage and disposal of, or exposure to, hazardous substances and wastes, the responsibility to investigate and clean up contamination, and occupational health and safety. Fines and penalties may be imposed for non-compliance with applicable environmental, health and safety requirements and the failure to have or to comply with the terms and conditions of required permits. CPH Management is not aware of any material instances of non-compliance with respect to environmental regulations.

CPH MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following management’s discussion and analysis together with “Selected Consolidated Historical Financial Information of CPH” and CPH’s unaudited financial statements and the related notes for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017 and CPH’s consolidated audited financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements about CPH’s business, operations and industry that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements regarding CPH’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. CPH’s future results and financial condition may differ materially from those currently anticipated by CPH because of the factors described in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone (“Brundage-Bone”):
Founded in 1983 with just one location in Denver, Colorado, CPH provides concrete pumping services in the U.S. with a fleet of 548 equipment units from a highly diversified footprint of 80 locations across 22 states (as of April 30, 2018) and operates under the brand Brundage-Bone. Brundage-Bone provides operated concrete pumping services, for which Brundage-Bone bills customers on a negotiated time and volume basis based on the duration of the job and yards of concrete pumped. Additional charges (such as a fuel surcharge and travel costs) are frequently added based on the local market competitive environment and specific project requirements. Typically, Brundage-Bone sends a single operator with each concrete pump. Brundage-Bone does not take ownership of the concrete and thus has minimal inventory or product liability risk. Brundage-Bone typically does not engage in fixed-bid work or have surety bonding requirements. Brundage-Bone operates a daily fee-based revenue model regardless of project completion. CPH Management believe that Brundage-Bone is the leading provider of concrete pumping services in the U.S. based on fleet size and the only competitor with a multi-regional footprint in a highly fragmented industry. Brundage-Bone’s large fleet of specialized pumping equipment and highly-trained operators position Brundage-Bone to deliver concrete placement solutions that CPH Management believe facilitate substantial labor cost savings to its customers, shorten concrete placement times, enhance worksite safety and improve construction quality. CPH Management has actively positioned the Brundage-Bone business towards commercial and infrastructure construction projects, while continuing to pursue profitable residential opportunities.
Late in fiscal year 2015 and in the first month of fiscal year 2016, CPH completed the asset purchase acquisition of five concrete pumping companies at approximately the value of the respective assets. Three of the acquisitions with a combined purchase price totaling approximately $7.3 million, positioned CPH in the South Carolina markets of Charleston and Greenville, in Knoxville, Tennessee, and in Birmingham, Alabama. The fourth acquisition was completed at a value of  $1.1 million and solidified CPH’s existing presence in the Dallas/Tyler area of Texas. The fifth acquisition was very small, and solidified CPH’s presence in the Amarillo/Lubbock region of Texas.
On April 20, 2018, Brundage-Bone entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire substantially all assets of Richard O’Brien Companies, Inc., O’Brien Concrete Pumping-Arizona, Inc., O’Brien Concrete Pumping-Colorado, Inc. and O’Brien Concrete Pumping, LLC (collectively, “O’Brien” or “the O’Brien Companies”) for a purchase price of  $21.0 million. The O’Brien acquisition solidified Brundage-Bone’s presence in the Colorado and Phoenix, Arizona markets and is a compelling addition to the business.
U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud (“Camfaud” and formerly known as Oxford Pumping Holdings, Ltd)
On November 17, 2016, CPH formed Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. (“Oxford”) to complete the stock acquisitions of two concrete pumping companies in the U.K.: Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and Premier Concrete Pumping Limited, which each also owned 50% of the stock of South Coast Concrete Pumping Limited (together, the “Oxford Acquisitions”). Oxford was a wholly owned subsidiary of Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc., which in turn is wholly owned by Concrete Pumping Intermediate Holdings, LLC. Following an internal restructuring, Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. changed its name to Camfaud Group Limited on April 3, 2018. CPH operates its business in the U.K. under the “Camfaud”
216

brand name. Camfaud operates both a fixed and a mobile fleet. The fixed fleet business entails either (1) utilizing static line pumps with an accompanied operator, or (2) renting out the equipment on a long-term basis without an operator. Mobile equipment is charged to customers under a minimum hire rate (typically five to eight hours). The business model is similar to pumping in the U.S. In the U.K., CPH provides concrete pumping services with a fleet of 388 equipment units from 28 locations as of April 30, 2018. On July 3, 2017, Camfaud completed the stock acquisition of Reilly Concrete Pumping Ltd. (“Reilly”), a concrete pumping company based in the U.K. The Reilly acquisition provides Camfaud with a more comprehensive footprint across the U.K., allowing the company to provide its diverse customer base with a truly national service offering on major infrastructure and commercial projects. Reilly’s mobile pump fleet totaled 44 pumps as of March 31, 2017.
The aggregate purchase price for Camfaud (formerly known as Oxford) was approximately $56.0 million excluding transaction fees and expenses, which was paid through the issuance of an additional $40.0 million of Senior Secured Notes, $6.0 million of seller notes with an annual paid-in-kind interest rate of 5.0%, and the remainder drawn on a new £22.5 million credit facility (“U.K. Credit Facility”) secured by the working capital assets of Oxford and its subsidiaries. Wells Fargo Capital Finance U.K. Ltd was the lender on the U.K. Credit Facility. Terms of the Oxford Acquisitions included additional contingent consideration based on Oxford and its subsidiaries generating a minimum level average EBITDA over a three-year period following the acquisition date. The maximum contingent consideration payout of £2.5 million was based on the Oxford Acquisitions generating at least £11.25 million of annual average EBITDA for the three years following the closing.
On July 3, 2017, Camfaud completed the stock acquisition of Reilly Concrete Pumping Ltd (“Reilly”). The aggregate purchase price was approximately $13.2 million excluding transaction fees and expenses, which was paid through the issuance of a £1.5 million GBP seller note with an annual paid-in-kind interest rate of 5.0% and the remainder drawn on the U.K. Credit Facility.
Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan (“Eco-Pan”):
Eco-Pan’s services help its customers to comply with environmental regulations, avoid fines and reduce compliance costs. Eco-Pan currently operates solely in the United States. In August 2014, CPH acquired Eco-Pan. Eco-Pan is a route-based solution that operates 54 trucks and more than 5,000 custom metal pans servicing construction sites from 13 locations in the U.S. as of April 30, 2018. Eco-Pan charges a round-trip delivery fee and weekly or monthly rental rate for its pans, which provides a turn-key solution to the customer compared to the alternative of bagging the waste concrete, pouring it into an on-site lined pit, or disposing of it into trash dumpsters and arranging for a pick-up. Eco-Pan delivers watertight pans to job sites to collect concrete washwater, and picks up the pans to deliver to recycling centers, passing disposal fees onto the customer. To the extent that pans are held at the job site for an extended number of days or irregular waste is found in the pan, Eco-Pan charges incremental fees. Eco-Pan’s trucks are designed to allow for the pick-up and re-delivery of multiple pans, leading to significant incremental efficiencies as “route densities” increase. CPH believes that Eco-Pan is highly complementary to Brundage-Bone, as customers’ decision makers for purchasing concrete pumping services also typically handle the disposal of waste concrete. Currently, Eco-Pan operates in twelve of the 22 major markets that Brundage-Bone serves, providing additional growth opportunities from rolling out Eco-Pan in the other Brundage-Bone geographies. CPH also believe that cross selling of Eco-Pan services to Brundage-Bone’s customers is a substantial revenue growth opportunity for the combined company. The combination of the two businesses also presents the opportunity for cost-saving synergies, as in some cases the Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan fleets can be co-located at the same facilities, serviced by a common set of mechanics, administered by the same office staff and marketed by the same salespeople, while increasing “route densities” for pan pick-ups and deliveries.
Reportable Segment Performance
CPH reports its financial performance based on the following segments: US Concrete Pumping — Brundage Bone, UK Concrete Pumping — Camfaud and Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan. The segment financials included in this MD&A are presented on a basis consistent with CPH’s internal management reporting. Any differences between CPH’s internal management reporting and its
217

consolidated financial results are related to certain corporate-level and other activity that are not allocated to the various segments in the evaluation of financial performance. These are reflected as Corporate in the subsequent reportable segment financial performance discussion.
Results of Operations
Revenue
CPH generates revenue from Brundage-Bone, Camfaud, and Eco-Pan businesses each of which are described below:
U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone:   Revenue consists primarily of fees charged to customers for concrete pumping services and parts Brundage-Bone sells to other concrete pumping companies. Brundage-Bone charges customers a rate based on the hours the equipment is deployed on jobs, yards of concrete pumped and surcharges (such as for fuel) when appropriate. As Brundage-Bone never takes ownership of the concrete, Brundage-Bone is not responsible for billing the customers for the material that Brundage-Bone pumps on jobsites. The customer sources this separately. Brundage-Bone bills solely for services when rendered and is not subject to percentage of completion accounting for any of its revenues. Brundage-Bone has experienced minimal bad debt expense, averaging less than 1% of revenue on an annual basis.
U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud:   Revenue consists primarily of fees charged to customers for concrete pumping services. Camfaud’s mobile concrete pumping business is very similar to that of Brundage-Bone. Camfaud’s static concrete pumping business either entails Camfaud providing pumping service utilizing static line pumps with an accompanied operator, or renting out the static pumping equipment on a long-term basis without an operator.
Mobile equipment is charged to customers under a minimum hire rate. This is typically based on a minimum hire period of between 5 hours and 8 hours. An additional charge to the customer is made in accordance with agreed fees when the customer exceeds the minimum hire period. Static equipment is charged to customers based on a minimum weekly (or fortnightly) hire. The static equipment is typically charged to customers over a minimum period of one week due to the small size of the equipment provided.
As Camfaud never takes ownership of the concrete, Camfaud is not responsible for billing the customers for the material that Camfaud pumps on jobsites. The customer sources this separately. Camfaud invoices solely for services when rendered and is not subject to percentage of completion accounting for any of its revenues. Camfaud has experienced minimal bad debt expense, averaging less than 1% of revenue on an annual basis.
Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan:   Revenue primarily consists of fees charged to customers for the delivery of pans and containers to jobsites and the disposal of the concrete waste material. Eco-Pan charges customers a delivery fee and a rental fee for the use of Eco-Pan’s proprietary pans and containers, disposal fees for the disposal of the concrete waste material, and a fuel surcharge. Eco-Pan bills for services when rendered. Eco-Pan also charges additional fees for material placed in the pans and containers that does not conform to Eco-Pan’s requirements, pans that are damaged by the customer, and for pans and containers that are kept by customers beyond the agreed initial rental period.
Cost of Operations:
U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone
Brundage-Bone’s cost of operations consists primarily of wages and benefits for concrete pump operators and mechanics, parts, repair and maintenance, fuel, insurance and depreciation.
Wages and benefits:   approximately 45% to 48% of Brundage-Bone’s total cost of operations represents hourly wages paid to pump operators and maintenance personnel, plus union fees and payroll taxes that are costs of operations driven by both hours billed to customers and the hourly wage rate paid to Brundage-Bone’s employees.
218

Parts, repairs and maintenance:   approximately 17% to 19% of Brundage-Bone’s total cost of operations represents the costs for outside repair and maintenance on equipment, and parts and supplies that are used in repairing and maintaining Brundage-Bone’s fleet. These items are driven by fleet size and the age and the utilization levels of Brundage-Bone’s rolling stock equipment.
Fuel costs:   approximately 8% of Brundage-Bone’s total cost of operations reflects fuel costs incurred through the round-trip transit to jobsites and from powering, the pumping of concrete through specialized equipment. The impact of fuel price changes on Brundage-Bone’s operating performance is mitigated to the extent Brundage-Bone is able to pass through fuel charges to customers pursuant to agreed arrangements, although the changes in amounts paid by customers tend to lag behind increasing fuel price changes. Brundage-Bone maintains these pass-through arrangements on a substantial majority of its jobs.
Insurance costs:   approximately 6% of Brundage-Bone’s total cost of operations includes property, casualty, liability, and worker’s compensation and health insurance premiums. These expenses are variable within Brundage-Bone’s cost of operations and scale with revenues, fleet count and aggregate employment levels. Brundage-Bone is self-insured up to an agreed deductible on some policies, and has established reserves for estimated claims incurred but not reported.
Depreciation:   approximately 13% to 18% of Brundage-Bone’s total cost of operations reflects the depreciation on the rolling stock fleet.
Other costs of operations include licenses and permit costs, freight, equipment movement and other costs of operations that are driven by employment and fleet utilization levels.
U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud
Camfaud’s cost of operations consists primarily of wages and benefits for concrete pump operators and mechanics, parts, repair and maintenance, fuel, insurance and depreciation.
Wages and benefits:   approximately 52% to 53% of Camfaud’s total costs of operations represents hourly wages paid to pump operators and maintenance personnel, plus payroll taxes and pension contributions. Operators are paid an hourly rate based on a contractual minimum 40-hour week. Operators are incentivized to supplement their hourly rate through discretionary performance bonuses, which are awarded by securing targets such as safety, attendance and maintenance of pump equipment. CPH believes this structure encourages good team morale and low employee turnover.
Parts, repairs and maintenance:   approximately 14% to 17% of Camfaud’s total cost of operations represents the costs for outside repair and maintenance on Camfaud’s equipment, and consumable parts and supplies that are used in repairing and maintaining Camfaud’s fleet.
Fuel:   approximately 8% to 10% of Camfaud’s total operations is driven by the deployment levels of Camfaud’s fleet, as well as the cost per gallon of diesel fuel. Camfaud incurs fuel costs through the round-trip transit to jobsites and from powering the pumping of concrete through specialized equipment. Camfaud fuels most trucks at Camfaud’s depot locations, which are secured by formal (and informal) rental agreements in areas throughout the U.K. The impact of increasing fuel price changes on Camfaud’s operating performance is mitigated to the extent Camfaud is able to pass through fuel charges to customers pursuant to agreed arrangements, although the changes in amounts paid by customers tend to lag behind increasing fuel price changes. Camfaud maintains these pass-through arrangements on a substantial majority of its jobs.
Insurance costs:   approximately 3% of Camfaud’s total cost of operations includes property, casualty, liability, and worker’s compensation and health insurance premiums. These expenses are variable within Camfaud’s cost of operations and scale with revenues, fleet count and aggregate employment levels. Camfaud is self-insured up to an agreed deductible on certain policies.
Depreciation:   approximately 13% to 18% of Camfaud’s total cost of operations reflects the depreciation on the rolling stock fleet.
Other costs of operations include licenses and permit costs, freight, equipment movement and other costs of operations that are driven by employment and fleet utilization levels.

Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan
Eco-Pan’s cost of operations consists primarily of wages for truck operators, parts, repair and maintenance, fuel, insurance, disposal fees, and depreciation.
Wages and benefits:   approximately 41% to 42% of Eco-Pan’s total cost of operations represents hourly wages, incentive bonuses, payroll taxes, benefits, and health insurance for truck operators and maintenance personnel.
Parts, repairs and maintenance:   approximately 15% of Eco-Pan’s total cost of operations represents the costs for parts, supplies, outside repairs and maintenance used to maintain Eco-Pan’s fleet of trucks.
Fuel cost:   approximately 10% to 12% of Eco-Pan’s total cost of operations represent fuel used in Eco-Pan’s trucks. Eco-Pan incurs fuel costs through round-trip travel to deliver and pick-up pans and containers. Eco-Pan’s trucks return to Eco-Pan’s home yard every evening. Eco-Pan charges fuel surcharges to customers, thereby mitigating the impact of rising fuel prices. Eco-Pan’s trucks fuel at off-site commercial fueling stations.
Depreciation approximately 9% to 11% of Eco-Pan’s total cost of operations reflects the depreciation of Eco-Pan’s fleet of trucks used of deliver and pick-up pans and containers.
Disposal fees:   approximately 10% of Eco-Pan’s total cost of operations represents costs incurred when Eco-Pan disposes of the material in pans and containers at approved disposal sites. Eco-Pan passes these fees through pricing to Eco-Pan’s customers.
Insurance costs:   approximately 9% to 10% of Eco-Pan’s total cost of operations includes commercial insurance and health insurance expenses. Eco-Pan’s health insurance plan is under the same structure as Brundage-Bone’s plan.
Other costs of operations:   include miscellaneous taxes, license, and permit costs.
General and Administrative:
CPH’s general and administrative costs include fixed costs related primarily to salaries and benefits for corporate personnel, branch management and administrative staff, expenses related to auto leases, depreciation and amortization costs on non-pumping assets, pickup trucks and office equipment, and other fixed costs related to operations including but not limited to rent and other fixed overhead expenses. These expenses also include accounting, legal and other professional service fees, facility costs, and bad debt expenses. CPH expects to continue to invest in corporate infrastructure and incur further expenses related to being a public company, including increased accounting and legal costs, investor relations costs, increased insurance premiums and other compliance costs associated with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result, CPH anticipates that general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods.
Provision for Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes consists primarily of federal and state income taxes in the United States and income taxes in foreign jurisdictions in which CPH conducts business.
EBITDA
CPH’s consolidated and segment EBITDA is calculated as Net income before subtracting Income tax expense (benefit), Depreciation and amortization, and Interest expense (income). Please refer to Note 15 Segment Reporting in the financial statements on pages 36 through 38 for the components of the aforementioned items by segment. Consolidated EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP (See “Non-GAAP Disclosures (Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA)” below.).

U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone:   
Brundage-Bone revenue totaled approximately $73.1 million in the six-months ended April 30, 2018 compared to $71.2 million in the 2017 comparative period, representing an increase of 2.7%. The increase in revenue in 2018 was largely due to positive construction momentum in the first half of the year primarily in the West and Central regions in the U.S. Several markets in the West Region had more favorable winter conditions in the 2018 period as compared to the comparable 2017 period.
The West region revenue in Washington and Oregon increased by 46.6% or 2.4 million and 19.0% or $1.0 million, respectively, during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. Overall, the West Region experienced revenue growth of 16.4% or $2.6 million with California partially offsetting regional growth with California revenue decreasing by $0.7 million or 12.9% during the six month period-ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2017. The California revenue decrease is attributable to heavy snow and rainfall during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 slowing down overall construction activity.
Central region revenue increased by 8.0% or $1.1 million during the six month-period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. The Central region was positively impacted by healthy growth in the energy sector primarily in West Texas. West Texas revenue increased by 59.8% or $1.3 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. The revenue increases in Texas were partially offset by a revenue decrease of 10.0% in Wichita, Kansas due to harsh weather conditions during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period.
The Mountain and Southeast regions were relatively stable with revenue increases of  $0.2 million or 1.4% and $0.5 million or 3.8% respectively.
The substantial revenue growth in the West and Central regions were partially offset in the South region with the most significant revenue decrease attributable to the Houston branch where revenue decreased by 32.4% or $1.4 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. The decrease in Houston was due to the overall impact of Hurricane Harvey whereby it took several months of disaster clean up and repairs to take place before the Houston economy was able to fully recover.
Parts revenue totaled $1.5 million for the six-months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud
Camfaud revenue totaled approximately $22.8 million in the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 compared to $14.9 million in comparable 2017 period representing an increase of 53.4%. This increase was primarily driven by the incremental revenue from the Reilly acquisition, which contributed an additional $5.0 million to the Camfaud results. Additionally, the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 included a full 6 months of operations whereas the prior period had 15 fewer operating days. The remaining $1.5 million of growth is attributed to in increasing market share in the UK. Camfaud revenue is consistently split (approximately) with 70% generated from the mobile pumping business and 30% generated from the static pumping business respectively.

Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan
Eco-Pan revenue totaled $13.2 million in the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 compared to $10.5 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2017, representing an increase of 26.6% or $2.7 million. Eco-Pan continues to experience strong growth in the adoption of its route-based environmental disposal service, as market demand for a premier concrete washout recycling solution continues to grow. The growth in Eco-Pan demand is driven by two primary factors; 1) Construction industry general contractors and other customer realization that Eco-Pan are cost effective and environmentally compliant alternatives compared to legacy industry solutions and 2) significantly higher enforcement, fines and penalties levied by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state authorities for violations of the Clean Water Act. As a result, Eco-Pan has been able to secure more market share and drive a substantial volume of growth.
Eco-Pan’s largest markets are generally in the Western region of the U.S. Revenue increased in Utah by 59.6% or $0.6 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. Revenue in Washington increased by 21.3% or $0.5 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. Revenue in California increased by 15.5% or $0.3 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. Revenue in Colorado increased by 13.4% or $0.3 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period. The remaining increase in revenue was attributable to the various other markets in which Eco-Pan conducts business. No single Eco-Pan market experienced a substantial decrease in revenue of 5% or greater during the six month period ended April 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable 2017 period.

U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone
Brundage-Bone revenue marginally decreased by 1.5% or $2.3 million to $151.2 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017, compared to $153.5 million in the comparative period in 2016. The decrease was primarily a result of the slower than expected recovery from severe winter weather influencing Brundage-Bone’s Washington, Idaho, Dallas and Wichita branches, in contrast to the unseasonably mild winter experienced in the comparative period in fiscal 2016. The effects of the September 2017 hurricanes in Houston and South Florida had an additional effect of delaying planned construction activity as these regions recovered from the impact of the storms. The overall negative impact on revenue due to these storms during the year ended October 31, 2017 totaled approximately $4.0 million. Despite the challenges experienced in fiscal year 2017, Brundage-Bone continues to see a sustained level of construction volume in both residential and commercial construction, with the outlook for infrastructure spending remaining relatively consistent, creating stable demand for Brundage-Bone’s services. Pricing continues to improve in Brundage-Bone’s markets that have favorable supply and demand fundamentals. Utah, Oregon, Oklahoma and California were Brundage-Bone’s strongest performing markets for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017. Despite Arizona and Austin markets experiencing higher levels of competition, Brundage-Bone is confident of sustainable growth in these markets given their stable construction activity levels.
Revenue in the West region decreased by 1.9% or $0.7 million with Oregon experiencing an increase in revenue of 4.8% or $0.5 million. This increase was offset by decreases in revenue in California and Washington of 4.4% or $0.5 million and 5.5% or $0.7 million, respectively, due to unseasonably colder weather during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period.
Revenue in the South region decreased by 6.8% or $2.3 million with Dallas and Houston markets resulting in a revenue decrease of 17.6% or $2.2 million and 8.7% or $0.7 million, respectively. The decreases in revenue for Dallas and Houston were related to harsh winter weather conditions in Dallas and the hurricane impact. These decreases were offset by revenue increases in Austin of 8.9% or $0.5 million due to continued expansion and increased volume of business in this market.
Revenue in the Central region decreased by 6.1% or $1.9 million attributable to severe winter weather in Wichita and Colorado with decreases of 18.5% or $1.4 million and 2.8% or $0.5 million, respectively. As previously mentioned, severe weather impacted the results for Wichita, while Colorado had slightly more favorable weather conditions during the 2016 comparable period.
Revenue in the Southeast region increased by 5.4% overall or $1.4 million. Strong markets such as Charleston and Knoxville experienced revenue growth of 29.7% or $0.8 million and 55.9% or $1.0 million, respectively. Birmingham was opened during the 2017 fiscal year and contributed an additional $1.6 million in revenue to the Southeast region results. However, these increases in revenue were substantially offset by hurricane impacts in South Florida, which impacted nearby markets such Atlanta, Georgia and Greenville, South Carolina which resulted in revenues decreases of 9.7% or $1.1 million and 41.2% or $1.2 million as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period.
Revenue in the Mountain region increased by 5.4% or $1.3 million. The Utah market experienced sustained growth of 20.5% or $2.3 million during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable 2016 period. The increase in Utah is attributable to larger volumes overall. These gains were offset by lower results in Arizona and Idaho with decreases of 14.2% or $0.7 million and 4.7% or $0.3 million respectively.
U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud
Camfaud revenue totaled approximately $36.4 million in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017. The revenue split between mobile pumping and static pumping was approximately 70% and 30% during both periods. Given the acquisition of Camfaud by CPH occurred on November 17, 2016, Camfaud’s results were not included in the fiscal year 2016 reporting period.
Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan
Revenue increased to $23.6 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017 compared to $18.9 million for the fiscal year 2016, representing an increase of approximately $4.6 million, or 24.5%. The increase was primarily due to increasing demand for Eco-Pan’s services in Eco-Pan’s primary markets of
228

Washington, Oregon, California, Utah, and Colorado. These regions combined generated an increase of $3.3 million or 71.4% of Eco-Pan’s overall growth.
There was a partial offset to this demand growth due to harsh weather experienced in early 2017, which limited Eco-Pan pick-ups in certain locations such as California and Washington. After Eco-Pan was purchased by CPH in 2014, Eco-Pan added additional operations in Oklahoma City, Austin, and Atlanta, which continue to experience growth contributing an additional $0.9 million of combined revenue during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period. In May 2017, Eco-Pan opened a new location in Maryland primarily to service the Washington DC and Baltimore markets. The impact to revenue during the year ended October 31, 2017 were minimal given the relative short time the new branch had been operating. Additionally, Eco-Pan continues to incrementally increase the prices Eco-Pan charges for services in markets where supply and demand fundamentals allow.
Eco-Pan’s largest markets are generally in the Western region of the U.S.. Revenue increased in Utah by 64.4% or $1.1 million during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period. Revenue in Washington increased by 8.4% or $0.4 million during the year ended October31, 2017 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period. Revenue in California increased by 13.6% or $0.6 million during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period. Revenue in Colorado increased by 15.9% or $0.8 million during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period. The remaining increase in revenue was attributable to the various other markets in which Eco-Pan operates. No single market experienced a substantial decrease in revenue of 5% or greater during the year ended October 31, 2017 as compared to the comparable 2016 period.

Brundage-Bone continued to see a sustained level of construction volume in both residential and commercial construction, with infrastructure spending remaining relatively consistent, creating stable demand for Brundage-Bone’s services. Most of Brundage-Bone’s markets reflected stable construction activity levels. Pricing continued to improve in Brundage-Bone’s markets that had favorable

supply and demand fundamentals. Oregon, California, Utah, Dallas, Colorado and Georgia were Brundage-Bone’s strongest performing areas for the twelve months ended October 31, 2016. In the first two quarters of fiscal year 2016, Brundage-Bone’s customers benefited from unusually mild winter weather, which brought forward certain projects for Brundage-Bone that otherwise, would have been completed during the summer months of the same fiscal year.
Brundage Bone’s West region increased revenue by 9.3% or $3.1 million with the Oregon and California markets experiencing increases in revenue of 28.6% or $2.6 million and 7.6% or $0.9 million, respectively. The revenue increases in Oregon and California were positively impacted by unusually mild weather in the first six months of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease in Washington of 2.6% or $0.3 million resulted from the unseasonably cooler weather during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2015 period.
Revenue in the South region increased by 12.8% or $3.0 million with revenue increasing in Dallas and Houston of 30.5% or $3.0 million and 15.3% or $1.1 million, respectively. The increase in revenue was due to substantial construction activity in and around the Dallas and Houston metro areas as well as favorable weather conditions during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2015 period. These increases in revenues were offset by significant decreases in revenue in Austin due to unseasonably cool winter weather conditions.
Revenue in the Central region increased by 17.7% or $4.1 million due to more favorable weather conditions in the Wichita and Colorado markets. Revenue in the Colorado market increased by 27.5% or $4.2 million during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2015 period. This was partially offset by lower than expected revenue in Wichita.
Revenue in the Southeast region increased by 20.7% overall or $3.5 million. Strong markets such as Atlanta/Nashville each had revenue growth of 16.7% or $1.9 million. Brundage-Bone opened its Charleston branch during the 2015 fiscal year and had a full year of operations in fiscal 2016. This market also contributed an additional $2.2 million of revenue growth in the Southeast region.
Revenue in the Mountain region increased by 15.6% or $3.2 million during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2015 period. The Utah and Idaho markets experienced sustained growth of 16.3% or $1.6 million and 32.3% or $1.7 million, respectively during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparable fiscal 2015 period. The increases were attributable to favorable weather conditions and expanded operations in the aforementioned states partially offset by a slight revenue decrease in Arizona of 2.5% or $0.1 million.
Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan
Eco-Pan revenue increased to $18.9 million for the twelve-month period ended October 31, 2016 compared to $15.4 million for the comparative period in fiscal 2015, representing an increase of approximately $3.6 million, or 23.1%. The increase was primarily due to increasing demand in Eco-Pan’s primary markets in Washington, Oregon, California, Utah, and Colorado. After Eco-Pan was purchased, Eco-Pan added additional operations in Oklahoma City, Austin, and Atlanta. Additionally, in 2016 Eco-Pan increased the prices charged for services in markets where supply and demand fundamentals allowed.
Eco-Pan’s revenues in Colorado increased by 44.4% or $1.5 million during the year ended October 31, 2016 compared to the comparative period in fiscal 2015. The increase was attributed to an especially dry winter in fiscal 2016 allowing for expanded hours of operation. California and Washington revenues increased by 13.5% or $0.5 million by 9.4% or $0.4 million, respectively, during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparative period in fiscal 2015. Both markets also benefited from dry weather conditions during the year ended October 31, 2016 as compared to the comparative period in fiscal 2015.

Operating Activities
Cash generated from operating activities is influenced by CPH’s ability to convert what CPH Management believe is a relatively high proportion of revenue into cash, as well as by CPH’s investment in company resources and equipment to support the continued growth of the business. Cash generated from operating activities typically reflects net income, as adjusted for non-cash expense items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, and changes in CPH’s operating assets and liabilities as CPH’s continues to expand its business. Generally, CPH Management believe that the CPH business requires a relatively low level of working capital investment due to the low inventory requirement and customers’ tendency to pay CPH on a timely basis for its services as CPH submits daily invoices for many of its services.

Investing Activities
CPH’s business requires regular capital expenditures to maintain a large, safely maintained and modern equipment fleet. CPH also regularly takes advantage of opportunities to acquire other concrete pumping and related businesses, which can expand CPH’s reach into new or overlapping geographic markets, add modern equipment assets to CPH’s fleet or allow CPH to further expand its service offering to its customers.
CPH invests to maintain a modern fleet of equipment while selling older and under-utilized pieces of equipment. CPH began making investments in new equipment to replace aging assets starting in 2014, and CPH expects to continue this practice given the strong performance of the business and improved construction end market fundamentals. CPH estimates that its fleet assets generally have a useful life of up to 20 years depending on the size of the equipment, hours in service, yardage pumped, and, in certain instances, other circumstances unique to an asset. CPH manages its fleet of equipment according to the wear and tear that a specific type of equipment is expected to experience over its useful life. As of April 30, 2018, the average age of CPH’s equipment in the U.S. and the U.K. was approximately 10 years and 8 years, respectively, and it is CPH’s strategy to maintain an average fleet age of approximately 10 years. CPH may allocate additional capital for fleet expansion if CPH believes growth opportunities in particular markets cannot be met by CPH’s existing fleet (including geographic transfers), or if CPH’s analysis indicates that CPH could improve returns on capital with additional changes in fleet mix. The recent changes in U.S. tax reform present additional opportunities for CPH to strengthen its fleet of equipment.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $29.2 million for the six-month period ended April 30, 2018. The asset purchase acquisition of O’Brien’s net assets represented a $21.0 million use of funds in the period, as CPH further expanded its business in markets including Denver, Colorado. CPH’s investment in its fleet of equipment totaled approximately $12.8 million and proceeds from the sale of equipment totaled approximately $4.6 million in the period.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $48.7 million for the six-month period ended April 30, 2017.

This included funds generated from the issuance of  $40.3 million of additional senior secured notes and the proceeds of  $17.0 million from CPH’s working capital line of credit. CPH made payments of  $7.8 million on the working capital line of credit. CPH made payments of  $3.0 million on its senior secured debt and $0.2 on its capital lease obligations in the period.
Net cash from financing activities totaled $52.8 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017.

Non-GAAP Disclosures (Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA)
CPH calculates Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA by taking GAAP net income and adding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, transaction expenses, gain (loss) on sale of assets, other adjustments, management fees and other expenses. CPH Management believe these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to CPH’s financial condition and results of operations. CPH uses this non-GAAP measure to compare its performance to prior periods for trend analyses, determine incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. These measures are used in quarterly financial reports prepared for CPH’s management and board of directors. CPH believes these non-GAAP measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating CPH’s ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing CPH’s financial measures with competitors who also present similar non-GAAP financial measures. Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure excludes certain cash expenses that CPH is obligated to make. In addition, other companies in CPH’s industry may calculate Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than CPH do or may not calculate it at all, which limits the usefulness of Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as comparative measures.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
CPH conducts operations both within the United States and internationally, and CPH is exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of business. These risks primarily include interest rate and foreign exchange risks.
243

Interest Rate Fluctuation Risk
Changes in interest rates can affect CPH’s cash flows and results of operations. CPH had historical exposure to interest rate risk through its investment of cash and cash equivalents and in connection with borrowing pursuant to its historical $65,000,000 revolving line of credit in the U.S. and £25,000,000 revolving line of credit in the U.K. Borrowings under the historical and expected future $60 million revolving line of credit incur interest expense at a variable rate based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on excess availability. CPH does not currently engage in any significant interest rate hedging activity.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
CPH has minimal foreign currency risks related to revenue and operating expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and the British pound. The volatility of exchange rates depends on many factors that CPH cannot forecast with reliable accuracy.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
CPH’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires CPH to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosures. Significant estimates include accrued sales and use taxes, liability for incurred but unreported claims under various partially self-insured polices, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill impairment analysis, valuation of share-based compensation and accounting for business combinations. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to CPH’s consolidated financial statements. CPH evaluates estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that CPH believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
CPH believes that the assumptions and estimates associated with revenue recognition, cash and cash equivalents, inventory, stock-based compensation, concentration of credit risk and income taxes have the greatest potential impact on the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, CPH considers these critical accounting policies and estimates. For further information on all significant accounting policies, see note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires CPH Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
CPH considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenues primarily from concrete pumping services in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Additionally, revenues are generated from the Company’s waste management business which consists of service fees charged to customers for the delivery of pans and containers and the disposal of the concrete waste material.
The Company recognizes revenue from these businesses when all of the following criteria are met:
(a)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (b) the service has been performed or delivery has occurred, (c) the price is fixed or determinable, and (d) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s delivery terms for replacement part sales are FOB shipping point.
244

The Company imposes and collects sales taxes concurrent with revenue-producing transactions with customers and remits those taxes to the various governmental authorities as prescribed by the taxing jurisdictions in which CPH operates. CPH presents such taxes in its consolidated statements of income on a net basis.
Stock-Based compensation
CPH follows ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (ASC 718), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all share-based awards made to employees and directors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense in CPH’s consolidated statements of income over the requisite service periods. Compensation expense for all share-based awards is recognized using the straight-line method. CPH accounts for forfeitures as they occur in accordance with the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.
Income Taxes
CPH (“Parent”) complies with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires a liability approach to financial reporting for income taxes. CPH accounts for income taxes in accordance with authoritative guidance, under which deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as well as for net operating loss, or NOL, and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income for the years in which those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. CPH records a valuation allowance to reduce their deferred tax assets to the net amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Concrete Pumping Intermediate Holdings (“CPIH”), a single member limited liability company, is a disregarded entity for income tax purposes. CPH has elected to reflect a tax provision for CPIH as it is a member of the consolidated group tax return filed by the Parent. CPH will be responsible for its share of related income tax expense reported in the consolidated tax return.
Income tax expense includes both current income taxes payable or refundable and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized in the consolidated balance sheets if the tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon an examination. BBCPI and EP are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are included in the income tax provision, if any.
Camfaud files income tax returns in the U.K. Camfaud’s national statutes are generally open for one year following the statutory filing period.
Jobs Act Accounting Election
CPH is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. CPH has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, CPH, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of CPH’s financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
245

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject CPH to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of  $250,000. At April 30, 2018, CPH had not experienced losses on these accounts and CPH Management believes that CPH is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Newco believes that Mr. Hall is qualified to serve on the Newco Board in light of his leadership and business experience, his track record as the chief executive officer of Polypipe, and his network of contacts in the industrial manufacturing and services industry.
Newco believes that Mr. Hodges is qualified to serve on the Newco Board in light of his leadership and business experience; his track record as the managing director and chief executive officer of Bradken; and his network of contacts in the industrial manufacturing and services industry.
Newco believes that Mr. Morgan is qualified to serve on the Newco Board in light of his extensive leadership and board experience, his track record as a partner and senior managing director of Argand and as president of Castle Harlan, and his network of contacts in the industrial manufacturing and services industries.
In accordance with Newco’s certificate of incorporation, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Newco Board will be divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve
248

from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election. Except as otherwise provided by law and subject to the rights of any class or series of preferred stock, vacancies on the Newco Board (including a vacancy created by an increase in the size of the Newco Board) may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by the Newco Board to fill a vacancy (other than a vacancy created by an increase in the size of the board of directors) serves for the unexpired term of such director’s predecessor in office and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified. A director appointed to fill a position resulting from an increase in the size of the Newco Board serves until the next annual meeting of stockholders at which the class of directors to which such director is assigned by the Newco Board is to be elected by stockholders and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors.
Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Newco’s directors will be divided among the three classes as follows:

The Class I directors will be Ms. Faust and Messrs. Hall and Humphries, with terms expiring at the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders;

The Class II directors will be Messrs. Hodges, Piecuch and Morgan, with terms expiring at the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders; and

The Class III directors will be Messrs. Brown, Osman and Young, with terms expiring at the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders.
Independence of the Board of Directors
As required under the rules and regulations of Nasdaq, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. Based upon information requested from and provided by each proposed director concerning his or her background, employment, and affiliations, including family relationships, Newco has determined that Messrs. Brown, Osman, Hall, Hodges, Morgan and Piecuch and Ms. Faust, representing seven of Newco’s nine proposed directors, do not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors will be “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Effective upon completion of the Business Combination, the Newco Board will establish the following committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Governance Committee and an Indemnification Committee. Each of the committees will report to the Newco Board they deem appropriate and as the Newco Board may request. The proposed composition, duties and responsibilities of these committees are set forth below.
Audit Committee
Newco’s Audit Committee will be responsible for, among other matters: (i) reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the Newco Board whether the audited financial statements should be included in Newco’s Form 10-K; (ii) discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements; (iii) discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies; (iv) monitoring the independence of the independent auditor; (v) verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law; (vi) reviewing and approving all related-party transactions; (vii) inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations; (viii) pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed; (ix) appointing or replacing the independent auditor; (x) determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between
249

management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work; and (xi) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies.
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Newco anticipates that its Audit Committee will consist of Messrs. Brown and Piecuch and Ms. Faust, with Mr. Piecuch serving as the chair of the Audit Committee. Newco anticipates that each of Messrs. Brown and Piecuch and Ms. Faust will qualify as independent directors according to the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq with respect to audit committee membership. Newco also believes that Mr. Brown will qualify as our “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K. The Newco Board expects that it will adopt a written charter for the Audit Committee, which will be available free of charge on its corporate website (www.concretepumpingholdings.com) upon the completion of the Business Combination. The information on the Newco website is not part of this proxy statement/prospectus.
Compensation Committee
Newco’s Compensation Committee will be responsible for, among other matters: (i) reviewing key employee compensation goals, policies, plans and programs; (ii) reviewing and approving the compensation of Newco directors, Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers; (iii) reviewing and approving employment agreements and other similar arrangements between Newco and its executive officers; and (iv) administering Newco’s stock plans and other incentive compensation plans.
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Newco anticipates that its Compensation Committee will consist of Messrs. Osman, Hodges and Morgan, with Mr. Hodges serving as the chair of the Compensation Committee. Newco anticipates that each of Messrs. Osman, Hodges and Morgan will qualify as independent directors according to the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq with respect to compensation committee membership. The Newco Board expects that it will adopt a written charter for the Compensation Committee, which will be available free of charge on Newco’s corporate website (www.concretepumpingholdings.com) upon the completion of the Business Combination. The information on Newco’s website is not part of this proxy statement/prospectus.
Nominating and Governance Committee
Newco’s Nominating and Governance Committee will be responsible for, among other matters: (i) identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Newco Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Newco Board; (ii) overseeing the organization of the Newco Board to discharge the Newco Board’s duties and responsibilities properly and efficiently; (iii) identifying best practices and recommending corporate governance principles; and (iv) developing and recommending to the Newco Board a set of corporate governance guidelines and principles applicable to us.
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Newco anticipates that its Nominating and Governance Committee will consist of Messrs. Brown, Hall and Osman, with Mr. Brown serving as the chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee. The Newco Board expects that it will adopt a written charter for the Nominating and Governance Committee, which will be available free of charge on Newco’s corporate website (www.concretepumpingholdings.com) upon the completion of the Business Combination. The information on Newco’s website is not part of this proxy statement/prospectus.
Indemnification Committee
Newco’s Indemnification Committee will be responsible for evaluating post-Closing indemnification claims under the Merger Agreement.

Brown, Osman and Piecuch, with Mr. Osman serving as the chair of the Indemnification Committee. The Newco Board expects that it will adopt a written charter for the Indemnification Committee, which will be available free of charge on Newco’s corporate website (www.concretepumpingholdings.com) upon the completion of the Business Combination.

250

Effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Newco will have adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to its directors, executive officers and employees that complies with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq. Newco’s Code of Ethics will codify the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of Newco’s business. Newco’s Code of Ethics will be available free of charge on Newco’s corporate website (www.concretepumpingholdings.com) upon the completion of the Business Combination. The information on Newco’s website is not part of this proxy statement/prospectus. Newco expects that, to the extent require by law, any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of its Code of Ethics will be disclosed on its website.
Post-Combination Company Executive and Director Compensation
The following disclosure concerns the compensation of individuals who will serve as Newco’s named executive officers and directors following the completion of the Business Combination.
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives Following the Business Combination
Following the Closing, Newco intends to develop an executive compensation program that is designed to align compensation with Newco’s business objectives and the creation of stockholder value, while enabling Newco to attract, motivate and retain individuals who contribute to the long-term success of Newco.
Decisions on the executive compensation program will be made by Newco’s compensation committee, which will be established at the Closing. The following discussion is based on the present expectations as to the executive compensation program to be adopted by Newco’s compensation committee. The executive compensation program actually adopted will depend on the judgment of the members of Newco’s compensation committee and may differ from that set forth in the following discussion.
Newco anticipates that decisions regarding executive compensation will reflect its belief that the executive compensation program must be competitive in order to attract and retain its executive officers. Newco anticipates that its compensation committee will seek to implement its compensation policies and philosophies by linking a significant portion of its executive officers’ cash compensation to performance objectives and by providing a portion of their compensation as long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards.
Newco anticipates that compensation for its executive officers will have three primary components: base salary, an annual cash incentive bonus and long-term equity-based incentive compensation.
Base Salary
It is expected that Newco’s named executive officers’ base salaries will continue as described under the section entitled “Executive Compensation — CPH,” subject to the terms of any employment agreements or severance agreement and will be reviewed annually by the compensation committee based upon advice and counsel of its advisors.
Annual Bonuses
Newco intends to use annual cash incentive bonuses for its named executive officers to tie a portion of their compensation to financial and operational objectives achievable within the applicable fiscal year. Newco expects that, near the beginning of each year, its compensation committee will select the performance targets, target amounts, target award opportunities and other term and conditions of annual cash bonuses for its named executive officers. Following the end of each year, Newco’s compensation committee will determine the extent to which the performance targets were achieved and the amount of the award that is payable to the named executive officers. For 2018, Newco plans to establish an annual cash bonus plan that links the payment of cash bonus awards to the achievement of targeted financial performance goals.
251

Equity-Based Awards
Newco intends to use equity-based awards to reward long-term performance of its named executive officers. Newco believes that providing a meaningful portion of the total compensation package in the form of equity-based awards will align the incentives of its named executive officers with the interests of its stockholders and serve to motivate and retain the individual named executive officers.
Employment Agreements
Newco anticipates that the employment agreements for CPH’s named executive officers will remain in place following the consummation of the Business Combination. Any new employment agreements such officers following the Business Combination will be subject to compensation committee approval.
Other Compensation
Newco expects to continue to maintain various employee benefit plans, including medical, dental, life insurance and 401(k) plans, in which the named executive officers will participate. Newco also expects to continue to provide certain perquisites to its named executive officers, subject to the compensation committee’s ongoing review.
Recoupment Policy
Newco’s compensation committee will administer Newco’s policies consistent with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which would recover CEO and CFO incentive bonuses or equity awards in the event of a financial restatement that would trigger recoupment under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Deductibility of Executive Compensation
Section 162(m) of the Code denies a federal income tax deduction for certain compensation in excess of  $1,000,000 per year paid to the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer and the three other most highly paid executive officers of a publicly traded corporation. Newco expects its policy will be to consider the tax impact of its compensation arrangements as one factor, among others, in evaluating and determining the structure, implementation, and amount of awards paid to its executive officers. However, to retain highly skilled executives and remain competitive with other employers, Newco’s compensation committee may authorize compensation that would not be deductible under Section 162(m) or otherwise if it determines that such compensation is in the best interests of Newco and its stockholders, and maintaining tax deductibility will not be the sole consideration taken into account in determining what compensation arrangements are in the best interests of Newco and its stockholders. Newco expressly reserves the right to grant compensation that is not deductible, and Newco expects to do so.
Director Compensation following the Business Combination
Following the completion of the Business Combination, Newco’s compensation committee will determine the annual compensation to be paid to the members of the Newco Board. Newco expects to pay each of its directors an annual fee of  $150,000 in either cash or equity. Newco expects to pay the director fees for Messrs. Osman and Morgan and Ms. Faust to Argand.
252

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Industrea
The following disclosure concerns the compensation of Industrea’s officers and directors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (i.e., pre-business combination).
None of our executive officers has received any cash or other compensation for services rendered to us. We have agreed to pay each of our independent directors $50,000 per year for services rendered as board members prior to the completion of the business combination. Commencing July 26, 2017, we have also agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of  $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. Other than as described above, no finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan or other compensation, will be paid by us to our Sponsor, officers or directors, or any affiliate of our Sponsor or officers, prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of the business combination. However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to the business combination will be made using funds held outside the trust account. Other than quarterly audit committee review of such payments, we do not expect to have any additional controls in place governing our reimbursement payments to our directors and executive officers for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination.
After the completion of the business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting or management fees from the combined company. For a discussion of our executive compensation arrangements after the Closing, please see the section entitled “Newco Management After the Business Combination.”
CPH
The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of CPH’s named executive officers for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017 (i.e., pre-business combination) should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures provided below and in conjunction with CPH’s financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Compensation information included in the following discussion is presented in actual dollar amounts.
This section discusses the material components of the executive compensation program for CPH’s executive officers who are named in the “2017 Summary Compensation Table” below. In fiscal year 2017, CPH’s “named executive officers” or “NEOs” and their positions were as follows:

Bruce Young, Chief Executive Officer;

Iain Humphries, Chief Financial Officer;

Stephen De Bever, Chief Operating Officer; and

Gary Bernardez, former Chief Operating Officer.
During fiscal year 2017, Mr. Bernardez served as Chief Operating Officer through March 9, 2017 and Mr. De Bever served as Chief Operating Officer from May 1, 2017 through October 31, 2017. CPH’s NEOs are employed by, and receive cash compensation and employee benefits from, Brundage-Bone. For purposes of this discussion, references to cash compensation paid and employee benefits provided by “CPH” or the “company” includes the cash compensation and employee benefits paid or provided by Brundage-Bone.
This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that are based on CPH’s current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation programs. Actual compensation programs adopted following the completion of the initial business combination may differ materially from the current programs summarized in this discussion.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table
2017 Salaries
The NEOs receive (or received, in the case of Mr. Bernardez) base salaries to compensate them for services rendered to CPH. The base salary payable to each NEO is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation commensurate with the executive’s seniority, skill set, experience, role and responsibilities.
The actual base salaries paid to the NEOs during 2017 are set forth in the 2017 Summary Compensation Table above.
254

2017 Bonuses
In fiscal year 2017, Messrs. Young, Humphries, De Bever and Bernardez were eligible to earn annual cash bonuses targeted at 55%, 50%, 40% and 55%, respectively, of their respective base salaries. Each NEO was eligible to earn his bonus based on the attainment of company and individual performance metrics established by the company’s board of directors.
Messrs. Young, Humphries and De Bever became entitled to receive cash bonuses equal to their respective target bonus amounts based on the attainment of company and individual performance metrics during fiscal year 2017. Mr. Bernardez did not receive a bonus with respect to fiscal year 2017 because his employment with Brundage-Bone terminated prior to the applicable payment date. Instead, as part of the cash severance payable to him in connection with his termination of employment in March 2017, he received payment of his target 2017 cash bonus pro-rated based on his length of service during fiscal year 2017 (as described below under “Executive Compensation Arrangements — Payments to Mr. Bernardez Upon Separation”).
The actual annual cash bonuses awarded to each NEO for fiscal year 2017 performance are set forth above in the 2017 Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation.”
Equity Compensation
CPH has historically granted options to purchase shares of CPH common stock to the named executive officers, under the Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2015 Plan”). For additional information about the 2015 Plan, please see the section titled “2015 Plan” below.
During fiscal year 2017, each of Messrs. Humphries and De Bever were granted options to purchase shares of CPH common stock under the 2015 Plan (the “2017 Options”). The 2017 Options were intended to qualify as tax-qualified “incentive stock options.” Messrs. Young and Bernardez did not receive grants of options during fiscal year 2017.
Each 2017 Option is eligible to vest and become exercisable as follows: (i) ten percent (10%) of the CPH shares subject to the 2017 Option will vest and become exercisable on each of the first five anniversaries of the vesting commencement date (November 1, 2016), subject to the applicable NEO’s continued service through the applicable vesting date; and (ii) subject to the applicable NEO’s continued service through the applicable vesting date, up to ten percent (10%) of the CPH shares subject to the 2017 Option (the “performance-based shares”) will vest and become exercisable on each of the first five anniversaries of the vesting commencement date based on the level at which CPH has attained budgeted EBITDA for the most recent CPH fiscal year ending immediately prior to the vesting commencement date anniversary. If actual EBITDA for a CPH fiscal year is less than 100% of budgeted EBITDA for such year, then any performance-based shares otherwise eligible to vest with respect to such year that do not become vested will be forfeited on such anniversary. In addition, in the event that a change in control of CPH occurs and the applicable NEO’s employment continues through such change in control, the executive’s 2017 Option will vest in full (to the extent then-unvested) upon such change in control.
For purposes of the 2017 Options, “EBITDA” is defined as, for any CPH fiscal year, projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as may be adjusted for extraordinary, unusual and/or non-recurring events, in each case, as determined in the sole discretion of CPH.
255

The following table sets forth the stock options granted to the NEOs during the 2017 fiscal year, and the per-share exercise price of such options.

As discussed in more detail under section entitled “The Incentive Plan Proposal,” Newco has adopted and is seeking stockholder approval of the Incentive Plan. We expect that, if the Industrea stockholders approve the Incentive Plan and the Incentive Plan becomes effective, no further awards will be made under the 2015 Plan. As further described in the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal,” we expect that, subject to the approval of the Incentive Plan, the 2017 Options and certain other incentive stock options that remain outstanding as of the Closing will be converted into incentive stock options of Newco to be issued under the Incentive Plan.
Other Elements of Compensation
Retirement Plans
Brundage-Bone maintains a 401(k) retirement savings plan for its employees, including the NEOs, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. The NEOs are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees. The Internal Revenue Code allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the 401(k) plan. CPH believes that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred retirement savings though the 401(k) plan adds to the overall desirability of its compensation package and further incentivizes employees, including the NEOs, in accordance with its compensation policies.
Employee Benefits and Perquisites
All of Brundage-Bone’s full-time employees, including the NEOs, are eligible to participate in health and welfare plans, including medical, dental and vision benefits, medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts, short-term and long-term disability insurance and life insurance.
As part of their compensation packages, each NEO is (or was, in the case of Mr. Bernardez) entitled to company payment of a car allowance equal to $2,000 per month. In addition, the company reimbursed each of Messrs. Young and Humphries for the cost of relocating to the Denver, Colorado area during fiscal year 2017. The company provided these benefits and perquisites to help ensure that the NEOs would be able to devote their full business time to the company’s affairs, to project the proper corporate image for the company and to make employment at the company attractive at a relatively modest cost for shareholders.
No Tax Gross-Up Obligations
Neither CPH nor Brundage-Bone has any obligation to make tax gross-up or similar payments to or in respect of amounts that may become payable to any of the NEOs or their other employees, including but not limited to any such gross-up obligations with respect to any amounts deemed to constitute “excess parachute payments” under Internal Revenue Code Section 280G.

Represents stock options vesting as follows: (i) ten percent (10%) of the CPH shares subject to the option vest and become exercisable on each of the first five anniversaries of the vesting commencement date (November 1, 2014 or November 1, 2016, as applicable), subject to the applicable NEO’s continued service through the applicable vesting date; and (ii) subject to the applicable NEO’s continued service through the applicable vesting date, up to ten percent (10%) of the CPH shares subject to the option will vest and become exercisable on each of the first five anniversaries of the vesting commencement date based on the level at which CPH has attained budgeted EBITDA for the most recent CPH fiscal year ending immediately prior to the vesting commencement date anniversary. In the event that a change in control of CPH occurs and the applicable NEO’s employment continues through such change in control, the option will vest in full (to the extent then-unvested) upon such change in control.

Mr. Bernardez was previously granted an option to purchase CPH common stock, which (to the extent not previously exercised) expired pursuant to its terms following Mr. Bernardez’s termination of employment with Brundage-Bone in March 2017.
Executive Compensation Arrangements
Executive Employment Agreements
Brundage-Bone previously entered into executive employment agreements with Messrs. Young, Humphries, De Bever and Bernardez, which became effective as of August 18, 2014, December 1, 2016, May 1, 2017 and May 26, 2015, respectively. The material terms of the executive employment agreements are described in more detail below. Mr. Bernadez’s employment agreement terminated on March 9, 2017, in connection with his termination of employment with Brundage-Bone.
Pursuant to the employment agreements, Mr. Young serves as Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Humphries serves as Chief Financial Officer, Mr. De Bever served as Chief Operating Officer through August 25, 2018 and Mr. Bernardez served, through June 30, 2017, as Chief Operating Officer. Each employment agreement has (or had, in the case of Mr. Bernardez) an initial one-year term, subject to automatic one-year renewals thereafter, unless either party provides (or provided, in the case of Mr. Bernardez) at least ninety days’ prior written notice of non-renewal.
The employment agreements provide for Messrs. Young and Humphries to receive annual base salaries which, as of October 31, 2017, were equal to $350,000 and $265,000, respectively. Mr. De Bever’s employment agreement provided that he was entitled to receive an annual base salary that was, as of his termination date, $250,000. Mr. Bernardez’s employment agreement provided that he was entitled to receive an annual base salary which, as of his termination date, was $300,000. Each employment agreement provides (or, in the case of Mr. Bernardez, provided) for the applicable NEO’s eligibility to participate in employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements provided to Brundage-Bone’s similarly-situated executives generally. In addition, the employment agreements provide (or, for Mr. Bernardez, provided) that Messrs. Young, Humphries, De Bever and Bernardez are (or were, as applicable) eligible to receive annual cash bonuses targeted at 55%, 50%, 40% and 55%, respectively, of their respective annual base salaries, based on the attainment of pre-established company and individual performance metrics. In addition, each employment agreement provides (or provided in the case of Mr. Bernardez) for company payment of a car allowance equal to $2,000 per month.

Under their employment agreements, upon a termination of the applicable NEO’s employment without “cause,” due to the applicable NEO’s resignation for “good reason” (each such term as defined in the applicable employment agreement) or due to Brundage-Bone’s non-renewal of the employment term, subject to the applicable NEO’s timely execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims, the NEO will be eligible to receive (1) twelve months of continued payment of base salary, (2) a pro rata portion of the NEO’s annual bonus for the year of termination, (3) company-subsidized healthcare continuation coverage for up to twelve months following termination. In addition, upon a termination of the applicable NEO’s employment due to his death or disability, subject to the applicable NEO’s (or the NEO’s estate’s) timely execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims, the NEO will be eligible to receive a pro rata portion of his annual bonus for the year of termination.
The employment agreements also contain certain confidentiality, nondisclosure and non-disparagement provisions effective during and after employment, as well as non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions that are effective during the applicable NEO’s employment with Brundage-Bone and for twelve months thereafter.
Payments to Mr. Bernardez Upon Separation
In connection with Mr. Bernardez’s termination of employment in March 2017, he became eligible to receive certain severance payments and benefits under his employment agreement, as described above under “Executive Employment Agreements.” These payments and benefits consisted of  (i) continued payment of his annual salary for twelve (12) months following termination, (ii) a pro-rated target annual bonus for the year of termination, and (iii) company-subsidized healthcare continuation coverage for up to twelve (12) months following termination.
2015 Plan
CPH currently maintains the 2015 Plan, which became effective on February 6, 2015. As discussed in more detail under “The Incentive Plan Proposal,” Newco has adopted and is seeking stockholder approval of the Incentive Plan. We expect that, if the Industrea stockholders approve the Incentive Plan and the Incentive Plan becomes effective, no further awards will be made under the 2015 Plan. The material terms of the 2015 Plan are summarized below.
Share Reserve.   The aggregate number of shares of CPH common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2015 Plan equals 1,622,120 shares. If any award granted under the 2015 Plan is forfeited, expires, terminates or lapses without being exercised or the shares subject thereto are repurchased for a nominal price, the shares subject to such award will (to the extent of such expiration, termination, lapsing, forfeiture or repurchase) again be available for grant under the 2015 Plan (unless and until CPH ceases making grants under the 2015 Plan upon stockholder approval of the Incentive Plan).
Administration.   CPH’s board of directors currently administers the 2015 Plan. The board may delegate the authority to administer the 2015 Plan to a committee of directors and/or officers (subject to the limitations in the 2015 Plan). Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2015 Plan, the board of directors has the authority to select the persons to whom awards are to be made, to determine the number of shares to be subject to awards and the terms and conditions of awards, and to make all other determinations and to take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2015 Plan. The board of directors is also authorized to adopt, amend or repeal rules relating to administration of the 2015 Plan.
Eligibility.   Options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards under the 2015 Plan may be granted to officers, employees and consultants of CPH and certain of its subsidiaries. Awards also may be granted to CPH’s directors. Only employees of CPH and certain of its subsidiaries may be granted incentive stock options.
Awards.   The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (including ISOs and NSOs), restricted stock, restricted stock units, or RSUs, other stock-based awards, or any combination thereof. No determination has been made as to the types or amounts of awards that will be granted to specific
258

individuals in the future pursuant to the 2015 Plan (and, as noted above, if the Incentive Plan becomes effective, no further awards are expected to be made under the 2015 Plan). Each award will be set forth in a separate agreement and will indicate the type and terms and conditions of the award.

Stock Options.   Stock options provide for the right to purchase shares of common stock in the future at a specified price that is established on the date of grant. ISOs, by contrast to NSOs, may provide tax deferral beyond exercise and favorable capital gains tax treatment to their holders if certain holding period and other requirements of the Code are satisfied. The exercise price of a stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying share on the date of grant (or 110% in the case of ISOs granted to certain significant stockholders), except with respect to certain substitute options granted in connection with a corporate transaction. The term of a stock option may not be longer than ten years (or five years in the case of ISOs granted to certain significant stockholders). Vesting conditions determined by CPH’s board of directors may apply to stock options and may include continued service, performance and/or other conditions.

Restricted Stock.   Restricted stock is an award of shares of common stock that remains forfeitable unless and until specified vesting conditions are met. In general, restricted stock may not be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed or expire. Holders of restricted stock will have voting rights and will have the right to receive dividends, if any, prior to the time when the restrictions lapse.

Restricted Stock Units.   RSUs are contractual promises to deliver shares of common stock (or the fair market value of such shares in cash) in the future, which may also remain forfeitable unless and until specified vesting conditions are met. RSUs generally may not be sold or transferred until vesting conditions are removed or expire. The shares underlying RSUs will generally not be issued until the RSUs have vested, and recipients of RSUs generally will have no voting or dividend rights prior to the time when the RSUs are settled in shares, unless the RSU includes a dividend equivalent right (in which case the holder may be entitled to dividend equivalent payments under certain circumstances). Delivery of the shares underlying RSUs may be deferred under the terms of the award or at the election of the participant, if the board of directors of CPH permits such a deferral.

Other Stock-Based Awards.   Other stock-based awards are awards denominated in shares of stock and other awards that are valued by reference to, or are based on, shares of common stock or other property. Other stock-based awards may be paid in shares, cash or other property, as determined by CPH’s board of directors. CPH’s board of directors will determine the terms and conditions of other stock based awards, including any purchase price, transfer, vesting and/or other requirements.
Certain Transactions.   CPH’s board of directors has broad discretion to take action under the 2015 Plan, as well as to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of existing and future awards, to prevent the dilution or enlargement of intended benefits and to facilitate necessary or desirable changes in the event of certain transactions and events affecting CPH’s common stock, such as stock dividends, stock splits, extraordinary dividends, mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and other corporate transactions. In addition, in the event of certain non-reciprocal transactions with CPH’s stockholders known as “equity restructurings,” CPH’s board of directors will make equitable adjustments to the 2015 Plan and outstanding awards. In the event of a change in control of CPH (as defined in the 2015 Plan), to the extent that the surviving entity declines to assume or substitute for outstanding awards or it is otherwise determined that awards will not be assumed or substituted, all then unvested awards will become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the change in control, and will be cancelled upon the change in control in exchange for the right to receive the change in control consideration.
Transferability, Restrictions and Claw-Back Provisions.   With limited exceptions for the laws of descent and distribution, awards under the 2015 Plan are generally non-transferable prior to vesting unless otherwise determined by CPH’s board of directors, and are exercisable only by the participant.
259

Additionally, awards granted under the 2015 Plan are subject to a right of first refusal in CPH’s favor and take-along rights in connection with the sale of all or a portion of CPH. All awards will be subject to the provisions of any claw-back policy implemented by CPH to the extent set forth in such claw-back policy and/or in the applicable award agreement.
Amendment and Termination.   CPH’s board of directors may terminate, amend or modify the 2015 Plan at any time. However, CPH must generally obtain stockholder approval to the extent required by applicable law. In addition, no amendment of the 2015 Plan may, without the consent of the holder, materially and adversely affect any award previously granted. No award may be granted pursuant to the 2015 Plan after the tenth anniversary of the date on which the 2015 Plan was adopted by CPH’s board of directors (or, if later, approved by CPH’s stockholders); however, no awards are expected to be made under the 2015 Plan following effectiveness of the Incentive Plan.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES
The following table sets forth information known to Newco regarding the beneficial ownership of Industrea common stock as of September 10, 2018 (pre-Business Combination) and, immediately following consummation of the Business Combination (post-Business Combination), ownership of shares of Newco common stock assuming (i) no shares of Industrea are redeemed and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Industrea are redeemed, by:

each person known by Newco to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Industrea common stock either on September 10, 2018 (pre-Business Combination) or of shares of Newco common stock outstanding after the consummation of the Business Combination (post-Business Combination);

each of Industrea’s current executive officers and directors;

each person who will (or is expected to) become an executive officer or director of Newco upon consummation of the Business Combination;

all executive officers and directors of Industrea as a group prior to the consummation of the Business Combination; and

all executive officers and directors of Newco as a group after consummation of the Business Combination.
Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.
The beneficial ownership of Industrea common stock pre-Business Combination is based on 28,750,000 shares of Industrea common stock (of which 23,000,000 are shares of Class A common stock and 5,750,000 are Founder Shares held by our Initial Stockholders) issued and outstanding as of September 10, 2018.
The expected beneficial ownership of shares of Newco common stock post-Business Combination, assuming none of our public shares are redeemed, has been determined based upon the following: (i) no Industrea stockholder has exercised its redemption rights to receive cash from the trust account in exchange for their shares of Class A common stock; (ii) none of the investors set forth in the table below has purchased or purchases ordinary shares in the open market; (iii) 1,906,318 shares of Industrea common stock are issued to the Lead Common Investor pursuant to its PIPE Subscription Agreement; (iv) 5,333,333 shares of Industrea common stock are issued to the Argand Investor pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement; (v) after giving effect to the forfeiture and cancellation of 190,632 Founder Shares in connection with the Subscription Agreement of the Lead Common Investor, the Founder Shares convert into an aggregate of 5,750,000 shares of Class A common stock (which are exchanged for an equal number of shares of Newco common stock); (vi) 2,450,980 shares of Series A Preferred Stock are issued to Nuveen; (vii) 1,856,056 shares of Newco common stock are issued to CPH Management pursuant to the Rollover Agreements; (viii) 1,528,347 shares of Newco common stock are issued to Peninsula and the other non-CPH Management equity holders pursuant to the Rollover Agreements; and (ix) there will be an aggregate of 41,825,035 issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock at Closing.
The expected beneficial ownership of shares of Newco common stock post-Business Combination, assuming the maximum number of shares of Industrea common stock have been redeemed has been determined based on the following: (i) Industrea stockholders have exercised their redemption rights to receive cash from the trust account in exchange for 23,000,000 shares of Class A common stock; (ii) none of the investors set forth in the table below has purchased or purchases ordinary shares in the open market; (iii) 1,906,318 shares of Industrea common stock are issued to the Lead Common Investor pursuant to its PIPE Subscription Agreement; (iv) 7,784,314 shares of Industrea common stock are issued to the Argand Investor pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement and the Backstop; (v) the forfeiture of 1,313,725 Founder Shares by the Sponsor such that the Founder Shares convert into an aggregate of 4,436,275 shares of Class A common stock (which are then exchanged for shares of Newco common stock); (vi) 2,450,980
261

shares of Series A Preferred Stock are issued to Nuveen; (vii) 1,856,056 shares of Newco common stock are issued to CPH Management pursuant to the Rollover Agreements; (viii) 1,528,347 shares of Newco common stock are issued to Peninsula and the other non-CPH Management equity holders pursuant to the Rollover Agreements; (ix) 11,230,937 additional shares of Newco common stock are issued to Peninsula pursuant to the Backstop; and (x) there will be an aggregate of 31,193,226 issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock at Closing.
Unless otherwise indicated, Newco believe that all persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER
This proxy statement/prospectus registers under the Securities Act the possible resale of Newco common stock that may be received in the Business Combination by the selling stockholder listed in the table below. The table below sets forth information, based upon written representations supplied to Newco, by the selling stockholder identified in the table, with respect to such selling stockholder’s beneficial ownership of Newco common stock as of the date hereof.
Immediately prior to consummation of the Business Combination, the selling stockholder identified below is expected to hold shares of Industrea common stock. The maximum number of shares of Newco common stock that the selling stockholder would beneficially hold following the Business Combination is 26,159,141.
The Argand Investor may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by the Argand Investor in exchange for the Industrea common stock issued to it pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on (a) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement does not exceed the Peninsula Threshold (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing, or (b) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement exceeds the Peninsula Threshold, the date that is one year after the Closing.
Because the selling stockholder may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all, some or none of the shares of Newco common stock covered by this proxy statement/prospectus, Newco cannot determine the number of such shares of Newco common stock that will be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the selling stockholder, or the amount or percentage of the Newco common stock that will be beneficially held by the selling stockholder upon termination of the offering. For purposes of the table below, we assume that the selling stockholder will sell all of the shares of Newco common stock expected to be received by it in the Business Combination and covered by this proxy statement/prospectus.
Unless otherwise described below, neither the selling stockholder nor any of its affiliates has held any position or office with or otherwise had any material relationship with either Industrea or Newco or any of their respective affiliates during the three years prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus.

The resales of the Newco common stock which the selling stockholder listed in the table above may receive in the Business Combination are being registered to permit public secondary trading of these securities by the holders of such securities from time to time. Registration of the Newco common stock does not mean that such securities necessarily will be offered or sold. Newco will not receive any proceeds from any such offer or sale by the selling stockholder.
The selling stockholder may sell such shares of Newco common stock time to time directly to purchasers or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices or negotiated prices, by a variety of methods, including the following:

in negotiated transactions, or in trading markets for Newco common stock;

in transactions otherwise than on such exchanges or in the over-the-counter market;

through a combination of any such methods; or

through any other method permitted under applicable law.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Industrea’s Related Party Transactions
On April 10, 2017, we issued an aggregate of 5,750,000 Founder Shares to our Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of  $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.004 per share. In April and May 2017, our Sponsor transferred 28,750 Founder Shares to each of our independent director nominees at their original purchase price.
Our Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 11,100,000 private placement warrants for a purchase price of $1.00 per warrant in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the IPO. As such, our Sponsor’s interest in this transaction is valued at $11,100,000. Each private placement warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at a price of  $11.50 per share. The private placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.
If any of our officers or directors becomes aware of an initial business combination opportunity that falls within the line of business of any entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such other entity. Our officers and directors currently have certain relevant fiduciary duties or contractual obligations that may take priority over their duties to us. We may, at our option, pursue an Affiliated Joint Acquisition opportunity with an entity to which Argand or an officer or director has a fiduciary or contractual obligation. Any such entity may co-invest with us in the target business at the time of our initial business combination, or we could raise additional proceeds to complete the initial business combination by making a specified future issuance to any such entity.
We have agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of  $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees.
We pay each of our independent directors $50,000 per year commencing on the date of the IPO prospectus for services rendered as board members prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Other than the foregoing, no compensation of any kind, including any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan, will be paid by us to our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any affiliate of our Sponsor or officers, prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of an initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.
Prior to the closing of the IPO, our Sponsor agreed to loan us up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. The loan was repaid on August 1, 2017.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with the initial business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete an initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of  $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. The terms of such loans by our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.
267

After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to our stockholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a stockholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.
We have entered into a registration rights agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the warrants issuable upon conversion of working capital loans (if any) and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the foregoing and upon conversion of the Founder Shares. This registration rights agreement will be terminated upon execution of the Stockholders Agreement.

Argand Subscription Agreement
In connection with the Business Combination, Industrea and Newco entered into the Argand Subscription Agreement with the Argand Investor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, for the purpose of funding the Business Combination consideration and paying the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and offsetting potential redemptions of public shares in connection with the Business Combination. Pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement, immediately prior to the Closing, Industrea will issue to the Argand Investor (i) an aggregate of 5,333,333 shares of Industrea common stock for $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $54.4 million and (ii) up to an additional 2,450,980 shares of Industrea common stock at $10.20 per share for an aggregate cash purchase price of up to $25.0 million if, and only to the extent that, redemptions exceed $106.5 million. Such shares of Industrea common stock will become shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Industrea also agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to the shares of Industrea common stock issued pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement (and corresponding shares of Newco common stock).
Stockholders Agreement
In connection with the Business Combination, Newco, the Initial Stockholders, the Argand Investor and certain CPH stockholders, are expected to enter into the Stockholders Agreement. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement:

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the Founder Shares until the earlier of  (A) one year after the Closing or (B) subsequent to the Closing, (x) if the last sale price of the Newco common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing or (y) following the Closing, the date on which Newco completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Newco’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Newco common stock for cash, securities or other property;

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the private placement warrants until 30 days after the Closing;

each CPH Management Holder (as defined therein) has agreed not to transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such CPH Management Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is (a) the first anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; (b) the second anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; and (c) the third anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing;

each Non-Management CPH Holders (as defined therein) may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such Non-Management CPH Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing; and

The Argand Investor may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by the Argand Investor in exchange for the Industrea common stock issued to it pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on (a) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement does not exceed the Peninsula Threshold (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing, or (b) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement exceeds the Peninsula Threshold, the date that is one year after the Closing.
In addition, pursuant to its Rollover Agreement, Peninsula will have the right, upon the Closing, to designate: (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director if it beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; (ii) two individuals,
269

one to serve as a Class I director and one to serve as a Class II director, if it beneficially owns more than 15% and up to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing; and (iii) three individuals, one to serve as a Class I director, one to serve as a Class II director, and one to serve as a Class III director, if it beneficially owns more than 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco common stock upon the Closing. Under the Stockholders Agreement, Newco has agreed to nominate the foregoing director designees for so long as Peninsula owns the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence. If Peninsula’s beneficial ownership falls below one of these threshholds, Peninsula’s nomination right in respect of such threshold will expire. These additional directors, if any, have not yet been identified by Peninsula.
The Stockholders Agreement also provides that Newco will, not later than 90 days after the Closing, file a registration statement covering the Founder Shares, the private placement warrants (including any common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of any such private placement warrants) and the shares of Newco common stock issued to the CPH stockholders at the Closing. In addition, these stockholders will have certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights following the consummation of the Business Combination. Newco will bear certain expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of such rights.
Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions
Newco’s code of ethics will require it to avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interests, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by its board of directors (or the appropriate committee of its board) or as disclosed in its public filings with the SEC. Under the code of ethics to be adopted by Newco, conflict of interest situations include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving Newco.
In addition, Newco’s audit committee, pursuant to a written charter, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that Newco enters into such transactions. An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of Newco’s audit committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be required in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of Newco’s entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of Newco’s audit committee will be required to approve a related party transaction. Newco will also require each of its directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.
These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.
Newco’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to its officers or directors or Newco’s or their affiliates.

DESCRIPTION OF NEWCO SECURITIES
The following summary of the material terms of Newco’s securities is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such securities. The full text of the Newco Charter is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement/prospectus. We urge you to read the Newco Charter in its entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of the post-combination company’s securities following the Business Combination.
General
The Newco Charter authorizes it to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. As of the date of this prospectus, one share of Newco common stock was issued and outstanding and owned by Industrea, and no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.
The following description of Newco’s capital stock and provisions of the Newco Charter and Newco’s bylaws are summaries and are qualified by reference to the Newco Charter and Newco’s bylaws, which have been filed as an exhibit to Newco’s registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part.
Common Stock
Dividend rights
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of Newco common stock are entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time-to-time by the Newco Board out of legally available funds.
Voting rights
Each holder of Newco common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Newco stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the voting shares are able to elect all of the directors.
Liquidation
Subject to applicable law, the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of the preferred stock, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Newco, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of Newco, the holders of shares of Newco common stock will be entitled to receive all the remaining assets of Newco available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Newco common stock held by them
Rights and preferences
Holders of Newco common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to Newco common stock. The rights, preferences, and privileges of the holders of Newco common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of Newco preferred stock that Newco may designate in the future.
Preferred Stock
The Newco Board has the authority, without further action by Newco’s stockholders, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences, and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms, and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of Newco common stock. The issuance of Newco preferred stock could adversely affect the voting
271

power of holders of Newco common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control of Newco or other corporate action. No shares of preferred stock are outstanding.
Pursuant to Nuveen’s PIPE Subscription Agreement, Newco has agreed to issue and sell to Nuveen an aggregate of 2,450,980 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of  $10.20 per share, or an aggregate cash purchase price of  $25.0 million. The Series A Preferred Stock will not pay dividends and will be convertible into shares of Newco common stock at a 1:1 ratio (subject to customary adjustments) at any time following six months after the Closing. Newco will have the right to elect to redeem all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at its election after four years for cash at a redemption price equal to the amount of the principal investment plus an additional cumulative amount that will accrue at an annual rate of 7.0% thereon. In addition, if the volume weighted average price of shares of Newco common stock equals or exceeds $13.00 for 30 consecutive days, then Newco shall have the right to require the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock to convert its Series A Preferred Stock into Newco common stock, at a ratio of 1:1 (subject to customary adjustments). Newco has also agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to the shares of Newco common stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock.
Other than the Series A Preferred Stock, Newco has no present plan to issue any shares of preferred stock.
Stockholders Agreement
In connection with the Business Combination, Newco, the Initial Stockholders and certain CPH stockholders, are expected to enter into the Stockholders Agreement. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement:

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the Founder Shares until the earlier of  (A) one year after the Closing or (B) subsequent to the Closing, (x) if the last sale price of the Newco common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing or (y) following the Closing, the date on which Newco completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Newco’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Newco common stock for cash, securities or other property;

the Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer the private placement warrants until 30 days after the Closing;

each CPH Management Holder (as defined therein) has agreed not to transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such CPH Management Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is (a) the first anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; (b) the second anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing; and (c) the third anniversary of the Closing with respect to one-third (1/3) of such CPH Management Holder’s Newco securities held as of the date of Closing;

each Non-Management CPH Holders (as defined therein) may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by such Non-Management CPH Holder in connection with the Business Combination for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing; and

The Argand Investor may not transfer any shares of Newco common stock acquired by the Argand Investor in exchange for the Industrea common stock issued to it pursuant to the Argand Subscription Agreement for a period commencing on the date of Closing and ending on (a) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement does not
272

exceed the Peninsula Threshold (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Closing, or (b) if the number of shares issued to Peninsula pursuant to the terms of its Rollover Agreement exceeds the Peninsula Threshold, the date that is one year after the Closing.
The Stockholders Agreement also provides that Newco will, not later than 90 days after the Closing, file a registration statement covering the Founder Shares, the private placement warrants (including any common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of any such private placement warrants) and the shares of Newco common stock issued to the CPH stockholders at the Closing. In addition, these stockholders will have certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights following the consummation of the Business Combination. Newco will bear certain expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of such rights.
Warrants
Effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, each warrant outstanding for the purchase of one share of Industrea common stock prior to the consummation of the Business Combination will be exercisable for one share of Newco common stock, with all other terms of such warrants remaining unchanged. The following is a description of the warrants.
Public Warrants
Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one whole share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of Industrea’s IPO or 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Newco will not be obligated to deliver any shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to Newco satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and Newco will not be obligated to issue shares of common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will Newco be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the share of common stock underlying such unit.
Newco is registering the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the public warrants pursuant to the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part at this time. Under the warrant agreement, Newco will be required to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of common stock until the public warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of the Business Combination, warrantholders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when Newco will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if Newco common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, Newco may, at its option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event Newco so elects, Newco will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event Newco does not so elect, Newco will be required to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
273

Once the warrants become exercisable, Newco may call the warrants for redemption:

in whole and not in part;

at a price of  $0.01 per warrant;

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrantholder; and

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of Newco common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before Newco sends the notice of redemption to the warrantholders.
If and when the warrants become redeemable by Newco, Newco may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
The last of the redemption criterion discussed above was established to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and Newco issues a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrantholder will be entitled to exercise its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the common stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.
If Newco calls the warrants for redemption as described above, Newco management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” Newco management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on Newco stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants. If Newco management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” means the average reported last sale price of the common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If Newco management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of common stock to be received upon exercise of the warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. If Newco calls the warrants for redemption and Newco management does not take advantage of this option, Industrea’s Sponsor and its permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their private placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrantholders would have been required to use had all warrantholders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.
A holder of a warrant may notify Newco in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
If the number of outstanding shares of common stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of common stock, or by a split-up of shares of common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of common stock. A rights offering to holders of common stock entitling holders to purchase shares of common stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of a number of
274

shares of common stock equal to the product of  (i) the number of shares of common stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of  (x) the price per share of common stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, in determining the price payable for common stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of common stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of common stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.
In addition, if Newco, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pays a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of common stock on account of such shares of common stock (or other shares of our capital stock into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above or (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of common stock in respect of such event.
If the number of outstanding shares of Newco common stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of common stock.
Whenever the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of common stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.
In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of common stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares of common stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of Newco with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which Newco is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding shares of common stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of Newco as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which Newco is dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the shares of Newco common stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Newco common stock in such a transaction is payable in the form of common stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.
The warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and Industrea, which will be assumed by Newco upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the
275

warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants.
The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrantholders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of common stock to be issued to the warrantholder.
Private Placement Warrants
The Sponsor purchased 11,100,000 private placement warrants at a price of  $1.00 per private placement warrant for an aggregate purchase price of  $11,100,000 in a private placement that occurred prior to the IPO. The private placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination (subject to limited exceptions to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the Sponsor) and they will not be redeemable by Newco so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the private placement warrants on a cashless basis. Except as described below, the private placement warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the public warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by Newco and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the public warrants.
If holders of the private placement warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” means the average reported last sale price of Newco common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent.
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of Industrea’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan Industrea funds as may be required. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of  $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period.
The Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the private placement warrants (including the common stock issuable upon exercise of any of these warrants) until the date that is 30 days after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination (subject to certain limited exceptions, including those made to Industrea’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the Sponsor).
Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law, Newco’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
Newco is currently subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”) regulating corporate takeovers.
Section 203 prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:
276


a stockholder who owns fifteen percent (15%) or more of our outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.
A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than ten percent (10%) of Newco’s assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

the Newco Board approves the transaction that made the stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the transaction;

after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least eighty-five percent (85%) of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the Newco Board and authorized at a meeting of Newco stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.
The Newco Charter provides that the Newco Board is classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of the Newco Board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.
In addition, the Newco Charter does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. The Newco Board is empowered to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Newco Board or the resignation, death, or removal of a director in certain circumstances; and our advance notice provisions require that stockholders must comply with certain procedures in order to nominate candidates to the Newco Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting.
Authorized but unissued Newco common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Newco common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Limitations of Liability and Indemnification
The Newco Charter and Newco’s bylaws provide that Newco will indemnify its directors and officers, and may indemnify its employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, which prohibits the Newco Charter from limiting the liability of its directors for the following:

any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to Newco or to its stockholders;

acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; and

any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
If Delaware law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director, then the liability of Newco’s directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as so amended. The Newco Charter does not eliminate a director’s duty of care and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies, such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary
277

relief, remain available under Delaware law. This provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or other state or federal laws. Under Newco’s bylaws, Newco is empowered to purchase insurance on behalf of any person whom it is required or permitted to indemnify.
In addition to the indemnification required in the Newco Charter and Newco’s bylaws, Newco has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors, officers, and some employees, effective upon consummation of the Business Combination. These agreements provide for the indemnification of such directors, officers, and employees for certain expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, or hearing, inquiry, or investigation that may lead to the foregoing, to which they are a party, or are threatened to be made a party, by reason of the fact that they are or were a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of Newco, or any of its subsidiaries, by reason of any action or inaction by them while serving as an officer, director, employee, agent, or fiduciary, or by reason of the fact that they were serving at Newco request as a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of another entity. In the case of an action or proceeding by or in the right of Newco or any of its subsidiaries, no indemnification will be provided for any claim where a court determines that the indemnified party is prohibited from receiving indemnification. Newco believes that the provisions of its certificate of incorporation and bylaws described above and these indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. Newco also maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in the Newco Charter and Newco’s bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit Newco and its stockholders. A stockholder’s investment may be harmed to the extent that Newco pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to Newco’s directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Newco has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.
There is no pending litigation or proceeding naming any of Newco’s directors or officers as to which indemnification is being sought, nor is Newco aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any director or officer.
Listing of Securities
Newco intends to apply to list its common stock on Nasdaq under the symbol “BBCP” and “BBCPW,” respectively, following the Business Combination.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Upon completion of the Business Combination, the transfer agent and registrar for Newco common stock will be Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Industrea Acquisition Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Industrea Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2017, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through December 31, 2017 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

INDUSTREA ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations
Industrea Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on April 7, 2017. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus its search on manufacturing and service companies in the industrial sector. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As of December 31, 2017, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through December 31, 2017 relates to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering (as defined below), and search for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and marketable securities from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 26, 2017. On August 1, 2017, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), including the issuance of 3,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of  $230 million and incurring offering costs of approximately $13.3 million, inclusive of $8.05 million in deferred underwriting commissions (Note 6).
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 11,100,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, with the Company’s sponsor, Industrea Alexandria LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of  $11.1 million. On August 22, 2017, the Sponsor sold 55,500 Private Placement Warrants at their original purchase price to each of the Company’s five independent directors, or an aggregate of 277,500 private placement warrants for $277,500 (Note 4).
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, $234.6 million ($10.20 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A, maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee (“Trust Account”). The funds held in the Trust Account were and remain invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with maturities of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination. A potential initial Business Combinations must have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement in order to be consummated.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations – (Continued)
However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Class A common stock”), sold in the Initial Public Offering (the “public stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account. The per-share amount to be distributed to public stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters. These Public Shares will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and a majority of the shares are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders (as defined below) have agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Class A common stock sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.
The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “initial stockholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of Class A common stock in conjunction with any such amendment.
If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months (by August 1, 2019) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations – (Continued)
ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
The initial stockholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial stockholders should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to its deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within in the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.20 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Liquidity
As of December 31, 2017, the Company had approximately $829,000 in its operating bank account, approximately $595,000 of interest available to pay for franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) and working capital of approximately $378,000.
Through December 31, 2017, the Company’s liquidity needs have been satisfied through receipt of a $25,000 capital contribution from the Sponsor in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares (Note 5) to the Sponsor, $224,403 in loans from the Sponsor, and the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in Trust. The Company repaid the loans from the Sponsor in full on August 1, 2017.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASU 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, as of December 31, 2017, the Company may not have sufficient liquidity to meet its future obligations. Management believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity from

the Sponsor to meet the Company’s needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from the date of issuance of these financial statements. Over this time period, the Company will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying balance sheet is presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Emerging Growth Company
Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of  $250,000. At December 31, 2017, the Company had not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Offering Costs
Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering totaled approximately $13.3 million, inclusive of  $8.05 million in deferred underwriting commissions. Offering costs were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at December 31, 2017, 21,815,963 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption at the redemption amount are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.
Net Loss per Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the initial public offering (including the consummation of the over-allotment) and Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 34,100,000 Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As a result, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for the period.
The Company’s statement of operations includes a presentation of loss per share for common shares subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income per share. Net loss per common share, basic and diluted for Class A common stock is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account, net of applicable income taxes, franchise taxes and funds available to be withdrawn from Trust for working capital purposes, by the weighted average number of Class A common stock outstanding for the period. Net loss per common stock, basic and diluted for Class B common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss, less income attributable to Class A common stock, by the weighted average number of Class B common shares outstanding for the period.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2017. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) to December 31, 2017. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 3 — Initial Public Offering
On August 1, 2017, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, including the issuance of 3,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, at a price of  $10.00 per Unit in the Initial Public Offering. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one Public Warrant. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.
Note 4 — Private Placement
Concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 11,100,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of  $11.1 million in the aggregate in a Private Placement. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. On August 22, 2017, the Sponsor sold 55,500 Private Placement Warrants at their original purchase price to each of the Company’s five independent directors, or an aggregate of 277,500 private placement warrants for $277,500.
If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.
Note 5 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On April 10, 2017, the Company issued 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Class B common stock”) for an aggregate price of  $25,000. In April and May 2017, the Sponsor transferred 28,750 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s independent director nominees at their original purchase price. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the Company’s initial Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their shares of Class B common stock into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment, at any

time. The initial stockholders agreed to forfeit up to 750,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. On August 1, 2017, to the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option. As a result, 750,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The initial stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.
Related Party Loans
Prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor loaned the Company an aggregate of  $224,403 to cover expenses related to such offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was non-interest bearing. The Company fully repaid the Note on August 1, 2017.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of  $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.
Administrative Support Agreement and Officer and Director Compensation
The Company has agreed, commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a total of  $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support.
In addition, the Company will pay each of the five independent directors $50,000 per year commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination or its liquidation.
The Company recognized an aggregate of  $159,140 in expenses incurred in connection with the aforementioned arrangements with the related parties on the accompanying Statements of Operations for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through December 31, 2017.

Note 6 — Commitments & Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any, will be entitled to registration rights (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion of such shares to shares of Class A common stock) pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed on or before the date of the prospectus for the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until the termination of the applicable lock-up period for the securities to be registered. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering prospectus to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters exercised this over-allotment in full concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of  $0.20 per Unit, or $4.6 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per Unit, or $8.05 million in the aggregate of deferred underwriting commissions will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Note 7 — Stockholders’ Equity
Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of  $0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2017, there were 23,000,000 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, including 21,815,963 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption.
Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of  $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of December 31, 2017, there were 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding.
Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of stockholders except as required by law.
The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of the initial Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
F-16

Note 9 — Income Taxes – (Continued)
temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, Management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the period ended December 31, 2017, the valuation allowance was approximately $176,000.
A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate (benefit) to the Company’s effective tax rate (benefit) is as follows:

On December 22, 2017, the United States enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform Legislation”), which made significant changes to U.S. federal income tax law. The Corporation expects that certain aspects of the Tax Reform Legislation will positively impact the Corporation’s future after-tax earnings primarily due to the lower federal statutory tax rate. Beginning January 1, 2018, the Corporation’s U.S. income will be taxed at a 21 percent federal corporate rate. Further, we are required to recognize the effect of this rate change on our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the period the tax rate change is enacted. We do not expect any material non-cash impact from this rate change, with adjustments to deferred tax balances offset by adjustments to deferred tax valuation allowances.
Note 10 — Subsequent Events
In February 2018, the Company entered into an expense reimbursement agreement (the “Reimbursement Agreement”) with the sellers of a potential business combination target (the “Sellers”). Discussions regarding the proposed transaction were terminated in February 2018. Pursuant to the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement, the Sellers agreed to reimburse the Company for fees incurred, in connection with the transaction, from December 19, 2017 and through the date of termination. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company received $1,275,067 from the Sellers as the final settlement of amounts owed under the Reimbursement Agreement. Any remaining unreimbursed expenses will be financed with Company proceeds held outside of the Trust Account or with a working capital loan from the Sponsor.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations
Industrea Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on April 7, 2017. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus its search on manufacturing and service companies in the industrial sector. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through June 30, 2018 relates to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering (as defined below), and search for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and marketable securities from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 26, 2017. On August 1, 2017, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), including the issuance of 3,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of  $230 million and incurring offering costs of approximately $13.3 million, inclusive of $8.05 million in deferred underwriting commissions (Note 6).
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 11,100,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, with the Company’s sponsor, Industrea Alexandria LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of  $11.1 million. On August 22, 2017, the Sponsor sold 55,500 Private Placement Warrants at their original purchase price to each of the Company’s five independent directors, or an aggregate of 277,500 private placement warrants for $277,500 (Note 4).
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, $234.6 million ($10.20 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee (“Trust Account”). The funds held in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations – (Continued)
The Company will provide the holders (the “public stockholders”) of the outstanding shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Class A common stock”), with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account. The per-share amount to be distributed to public stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters. These Public Shares will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders (as defined below) have agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Class A common stock sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.
The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “initial stockholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of Class A common stock in conjunction with any such amendment. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by August 1, 2019, which is 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as

reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
The initial stockholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial stockholders should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to its deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within in the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.20 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Going Concern
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, management has determined that the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after August 1, 2019.

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the

year ended December 31, 2018. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2018.
Emerging Growth Company
Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of  $250,000. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Offering Costs
Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering, which totaled approximately $13.3 million, inclusive of  $8.05 million in deferred underwriting commissions. Offering costs were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, 21,867,235 and 21,815,963 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets.
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods. An aggregate of 21,867,235 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption at June 30, 2018 has been excluded from the calculation of basic income per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the trust earnings. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering (including the consummation of the over-allotment) and Private Placement to purchase 34,100,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. At June 30, 2017, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period from April 7, 2017 (date of inception) through June 30, 2017.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 3 — Initial Public Offering
On August 1, 2017, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, including the issuance of 3,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, at a price of  $10.00 per Unit in the Initial Public Offering. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one Public Warrant. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 6).
Note 4 — Private Placement
Concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 11,100,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of  $11.1 million in the aggregate in a Private Placement. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.
Note 5 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On April 10, 2017, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Class B common stock”), for an aggregate price of  $25,000. In April and May 2017, the Sponsor transferred 28,750 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s independent director nominees at their original purchase price. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the Company’s initial Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their shares of Class B common stock into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment, at any time. The initial stockholders agreed to forfeit up to 750,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. On August 1, 2017, to the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option. As a result, 750,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The initial stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions – (Continued)
Related Party Loans
Prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor loaned the Company an aggregate of  $224,403 to cover expenses related to such offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was non-interest bearing. The Company fully repaid the Note on August 1, 2017.
In addition, the Sponsor paid for certain operating expenses on behalf of the Company. As of June 30, 2018, the Company owes approximately $22,000 to the Sponsor.
To finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of  $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.
Administrative Support Agreement and Officer and Director Compensation
The Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of  $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation.
In addition, the Company has agreed to pay each of the five independent directors $50,000 per year commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination or its liquidation.
The Company recognized an aggregate of  $92,500 and $185,000 in expenses incurred in connection with the aforementioned arrangements with the related parties on the accompanying Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
Note 6 — Commitments & Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any, will be entitled to registration rights (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion of such shares to shares of Class A common stock) pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed on or before the date of the prospectus for the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until the termination of the applicable lock-up period for the securities to be registered. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from July 26, 2017 to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters exercised this over-allotment in full concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of  $0.20 per unit, or $4.6 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per unit, or $8.05 million in the aggregate of deferred underwriting commissions will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Reimbursement Agreement
In February 2018, the Company entered into an expense reimbursement agreement (the “Reimbursement Agreement”) with the sellers of a potential Business Combination target (the “Sellers”). Discussions regarding the proposed transaction were terminated in February 2018. Pursuant to the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement, the Sellers agreed to reimburse the Company for fees incurred, in connection with the transaction, from December 19, 2017 and through the date of termination. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company received $1,275,067 from the Sellers as the final settlement of amounts owed under the Reimbursement Agreement. Any remaining unreimbursed expenses will be financed with Company proceeds held outside of the Trust Account or with a working capital loan from the Sponsor. The reimbursement amount was recorded as offset against general and administrative costs in the accompanying Condensed Statement of Operations.
Note 7 — Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of  $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 23,000,000 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, including 21,867,235 and 21,815,963 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively.
Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of  $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding.
Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of stockholders except as required by law.
The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of the initial Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all shares of

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of October 31, 2017, and 2016, the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and subsidiaries at October 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Organization:   Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (CPH, the Company or Parent) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on July 14, 2014. Concrete Pumping Intermediate Holdings, LLC (CPIH), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPH, was formed on June 16, 2014, as a Delaware limited liability company to acquire, through the creation of BB Merger Sub, Inc. (BBMI) and EP Merger Sub, Inc. (EPMI), all outstanding stock of Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc. (BBCPI, BB, or Brundage-Bone) and Eco-Pan, Inc. (Eco-Pan or EP) on August 18, 2014 (the Merger). BBMI and EPMI were formed on July 23, 2014, as Colorado corporations and wholly-owned subsidiaries of CPIH to merge with and into BBCPI and EP, respectively, with BBCPI and EP being the surviving corporations. Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan are wholly-owned subsidiaries of CPIH. Concrete Pumping Property Holdings, LLC (PropCo), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPH, was incorporated in the state of Delaware on July 14, 2014, to hold certain real property that is leased to BBCPI. CPH, CPIH, BBMI and EPMI commenced operations on August 18, 2014. The equity sponsor is Peninsula Pacific Strategic Partners, LLC (the Sponsor).
Nature of business:   Brundage-Bone was incorporated in the state of Colorado on October 31, 2011. Brundage-Bone is a concrete pumping service provider in the United States. Brundage-Bone’s core business is the provision of concrete pumping services to general contractors and concrete finishing companies. Brundage-Bone is a construction services business that provides specialized equipment with technically trained operators. Most often equipment returns to a “home base” nightly. Brundage-Bone does not contract to purchase, mix, or to deliver concrete. Brundage-Bone most often contracts for its services on a per hour and per yard poured schedule customized to each market. In addition, Brundage-Bone actively sells concrete pumps, parts and service, however, the sale of parts are not a significant component of Brundage-Bone operations. Brundage-Bone has operations in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming, with its corporate headquarters in Denver, Colorado.
Eco-Pan was incorporated in the state of Colorado on April 4, 2003. Eco-Pan provides industrial cleanup and containment services, primarily to customers in the construction industry. Eco-Pan uses containment pans specifically designed to hold waste products from concrete and other industrial cleanup operations. Eco-Pan has operating locations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Maryland, Oklahoma, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Texas, with its corporate headquarters in Denver, Colorado.
In May 2015, Eco-Pan formed a joint venture, Eco-Pan Midwest, LLC (EPMW), with an initial capital contribution of  $76,500, which represented 51 percent of the outstanding membership interests in EPMW. EPMW was dissolved in 2016. See Note 2 regarding principles of consolidation related to EPMW.
In November 2016, Brundage-Bone entered into two share purchase agreements to acquire two concrete pumping companies based in the United Kingdom (UK) (collectively, Camfaud): Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and Premier Concrete Pumping Limited, which each also owned 50 percent of the stock of South Coast Concrete Pumping Limited. In connection with the transactions, a new entity, Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. (Oxford), was created as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brundage-Bone to serve as a UK-based holding company. In July 2017, Oxford acquired Reilly Concrete Pumping Limited (Reilly), another UK-based concrete pumping company. As a result of these transactions, the UK based companies collectively make up Camfaud. Refer to Note 3 for discussion of the acquisitions.
Camfaud is a concrete pumping service provider in the UK. Camfaud’s core business is the provision of concrete pumping equipment to customers in the commercial, infrastructure and residential sectors. Camfaud is a construction services business that provides specialized concrete pumping equipment with technically trained operators. Camfaud provides the equipment operator and the equipment. Camfaud does not contract to purchase, mix or to deliver concrete. Camfaud most often contracts for its equipment services on a daily, weekly or monthly schedule customized to each market. Camfaud has 28 branch locations throughout the UK, with its corporate headquarters in Epping, Essex.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation:   The Company follows accounting standards established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to ensure consistent reporting of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. References to generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or the Codification).
Principles of consolidation:   These financial statements present the consolidated financial position of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Brundage-Bone, Camfaud, Eco-Pan, PropCo, and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) as of October 31, 2017, and 2016, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three years then ended. The accounts of EPMW have also been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the portion of the Company’s equity attributable to the noncontrolling interest in EPMW has been reported separately within the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets and the Company’s portion of the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest in EPMW is also reported separately below net income on the consolidated statements of income. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates:   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include accrued sales and use taxes, the liability for incurred but unreported claims under various partially self-insured polices, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill impairment analysis, valuation of share based compensation and accounting for business combinations. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Cash:   Cash includes time deposits and certificates of deposit with original maturities of three months or less.
Trade receivables:   Trade receivables are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for their accounts receivable; however, the Company may file statutory liens or take other appropriate legal action when necessary on construction projects in which collection problems arise.. A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days. The Company does not charge interest on past due trade receivables.
Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $601,760, and $456,218 as of October 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.
Inventory:   Inventory consists primarily of replacement parts for concrete pumping equipment. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The Company evaluates inventory and records an allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory to account for cost adjustments to market. Based on management’s analysis, no allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory was required as of October 31, 2017, and 2016.

Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
Fair Value Measurements:   The FASB’s standard on fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. This standard establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
Deferred financing costs:   The Company incurred closing costs of  $12,887,000 during the Merger related to obtaining loan financing. In conjunction with the Senior Note Exchange (Note 7 that occurred in September 2017, Brundage-Bone incurred $588,634 related to obtaining financing through additional term notes and $240,250 related to the US Revolver. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Camfaud, costs of  $625,480 were incurred by Oxford related to the UK Revolver. Deferred financing costs related to the revolver are classified as assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the revolver, while deferred financing costs related to the term debt are shown as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the liability and amortized over the terms of the related debt instruments under the effective interest method. Accumulated amortization related to the US Revolver fees as of October 31, 2017 and 2016, was $678,528 and $476,400, respectively. Accumulated amortization related to the UK Revolver fees as of October 31, 2017 was $210,699. See Note 7 for discussion of the term debt financing fees.
Goodwill:   The Company accounts for goodwill under ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (ASC 350). The Company’s goodwill was recorded as a result of the Company’s business combinations. The Company has recorded these business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company tests its recorded goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on August 31, or more often if indicators of potential impairment exist, by determining if the carrying value of each reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether or not it is more than likely that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the fair value. If the result of a qualitative test indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a quantitative test is performed. As further detailed in “Newly adopted accounting pronouncements” below, the Company adopted ASU 2017-04, and accordingly, goodwill impairment is recognized in the amount that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit, based on the results of the Step 1 analysis.
In undertaking the qualitative assessment, the Company considered macro-economic, industry and reporting unit-specific factors. These included the effect of the current interest rate environment on the cost of capital; sustaining market share over the year; lack of turnover in key management; actual performance as compared to expected 2017 performance. Based on the qualitative assessment, having considered the factors in totality we determined it was not more likely than not that the carrying value of the U.K. reporting units exceeded its fair value. Significant changes in the external environment or substantial declines in the operating performance of the U.K. reporting units could cause us to reevaluate this conclusion in the future.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
A quantitative assessment was performed on the remaining two reporting units. In performing the quantitative test, the Company compares the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. The estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value of each of the three reporting units. Had the estimated fair value of any reporting unit been less than its carrying value, the Company would have recognized an impairment expense for the amount of fair value in excess of the carrying value, however this amount would not exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.
Management has determined that the Company had 4 reporting units in 2017 and 2 reporting units in 2016 for the purposes of testing goodwill for impairment. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company determined that no impairment of goodwill existed because the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount. Future impairment reviews may require write-downs in the Company’s goodwill and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operating results for the periods in which such write-downs occur.
Long-lived assets:
ASC 360 requires long-lived assets to be evaluated for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. If indicators are present, assets are grouped to the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other asset groups and cash flows are estimated for each asset group over the remaining estimated life of each asset group. If the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the asset group is less than the asset’s carrying amount, impairment is recognized in the amount of excess of the carrying value over the fair value. No indicators of impairment were identified as of October 31, 2017 and 2016. Intangible assets with finite lives are being amortized on a straight-line basis, except for customer relationships, over their estimated useful lives. The customer relationships are being amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful lives.
Property, plant and equipment:   Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for additions and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; however, maintenance and repairs that improve or extend the life of existing assets are capitalized. The carrying amount of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal. Gains or losses from property and equipment disposals are recognized in the year of disposal. Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings and improvements
15 to 40 years
Capital lease assets – buildings
40 years
Furniture and office equipment
2 to 7 years
Machinery and equipment
3 to 25 years
Transportation equipment
3 to 7 years
Capital lease assets are being amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset (see Note 11). Capital lease amortization is included in depreciation expense for the years ended October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015.
Revenue recognition:   The Company generates revenues primarily from concrete pumping services in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Additionally, revenues are generated from the Company’s waste management business which consists of service fees charged to customers for the delivery of our pans and containers and the disposal of the concrete waste material.
The Company recognizes revenue from these businesses when all of the following criteria are met: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (b) the service has been performed or delivery has occurred, (c) the price is fixed or determinable, and (d) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s delivery terms for replacement part sales are FOB shipping point.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
The Company imposes and collects sales taxes concurrent with our revenue-producing transactions with customers and remit those taxes to the various governmental authorities as prescribed by the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate. We present such taxes in our consolidated statements of income on a net basis.
Stock-based compensation:   The Company follows ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (ASC 718), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all share-based awards made to employees and directors. The value of the vested portion of the award is recognized as expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income over the requisite service periods. Compensation expense for all share-based awards is recognized using the straight-line method. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur in accordance with the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.
Foreign currency translation:   The functional currency of Camfaud is the Great British Pound (GBP). The assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries are translated into US dollars using the year end exchange rates, and the consolidated statements of income are translated at the average rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and accumulated in other comprehensive income. The functional currency of our other subsidiaries is the United States Dollar.
Income taxes:   The Company complies with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires a liability approach to financial reporting for income taxes. The Company computes deferred income tax assets and liabilities annually for differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense includes both the current income taxes payable or refundable and the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized in the consolidated balance sheets if the tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon an examination. CPIH and PropCo are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are included in the income tax provision, if any.
Camfaud files income tax returns in the UK. Camfaud’s national statutes are generally open for one year following the statutory filing period.
Business combinations:   The Company applies the principles provided in ASC 805, Business Combinations, when a business is acquired. Tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value and goodwill is recognized for any differences between the fair value of consideration transferred and the fair value of net assets acquired. Transaction costs for business combinations are expensed as incurred in accordance with ASC 805.
Concentration of credit risk:   Cash balances held at financial institutions may, at times, be in excess of federally insured limits. It is management’s belief that the Company places their temporary cash balances in high-credit quality financial institutions.
The Company’s customer base is dispersed across the United States and the United Kingdom. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of their customers’ financial condition and requires no collateral to support credit sales. For the years ended October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, no customer represented 10 percent or more of revenue or trade receivables.

Vendor Concentration:   For the year ended October 31, 2017 there were 3 significant vendors the Company relied upon to purchase concrete pumping boom equipment. For the years ended October 31, 2016 and 2015 there were two. These vendors provided sales of concrete pumping boom equipment that can be replaced with alternate vendors should the need arise; however, risk does exist that a disruption in suppliers could negatively impact the Company.
Newly adopted accounting pronouncements:   In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, to provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in ASC 718. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The Company elected to early adopt the amendment as of August 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The ASU simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by eliminating the requirement that an entity compute the implied fair value of goodwill based on the fair values of its assets and liabilities to measure impairment. Instead, goodwill impairment will be measured as the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the carrying value of the reporting unit. The ASU also clarifies the treatment of the income tax effect of tax deductible goodwill when measuring goodwill impairment loss. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for the Company beginning on November 1, 2022. The amendment must be applied prospectively with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to early adopt the amendment for the year ended October 31, 2017, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments”, which clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendments in this update is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. The Company early adopted the new standard as of November 1, 2016. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective:   In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 requires entities to use a screen test to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business or if the integrated set of assets and activities needs to be further evaluated against the framework. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for the Company beginning on November 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on the consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Initially, the modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, wherein the Board decided to provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (such as January 1, 2019, for calendar year-end public business entities) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption consistent with preparers’ requests. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. This ASU simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the requirement for entities to separate deferred tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in classified balance sheets. Instead, it requires deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent in the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, and this ASU may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption of this standard on a retrospective basis, all deferred income tax assets and liabilities will be presented as noncurrent.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either a full retrospective or retrospective with cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 one year making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In connection with the Merger described in Note 1, consideration of  $4,256,356 for Brundage Bone and $250,000 for Eco Pan was paid to the respective sellers during fiscal 2015. The amounts were previously accrued in fiscal 2014 for final working capital adjustments related to the acquisitions.
The consideration transferred in the Merger Agreement included contingent consideration to be paid to the sellers based on certain EBITDA targets. The potential earnout totaled $500,000 and was paid during 2015.
Note 4. Fair Value Measurement
The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current accrued liabilities approximate their fair value as recorded due to the short-term maturity of these instruments, which approximates fair value. The Company’s outstanding obligations on its revolving line of credit and UK revolver are deemed to be at fair value as the interest rates on these debt obligations are variable and consistent with prevailing rates. The Company believes the carry value of our capital lease obligations represents fair value.
The Company’s long-term debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in the consolidated balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The fair value amount of the long-term debt instruments are derived from observable Level II inputs. The fair value amount of the Long-term debt instruments at October 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016 is presented in the table below based on the prevailing interest rates and trading activity of the Notes.

In connection with the acquisition of Camfaud, shareholders were eligible to receive earn out payments of up to $3,100,000 if certain EBITDA targets were met (Note 3).
As a result, the Company estimated the fair value of the contingent earn out liability based on its probability assessment of Camfaud EBITDA achievements during the 3 year earn out period. In developing these estimates, the Company considered its revenue and EBITDA projections, its historical results, and general macro-economic environment and industry trends. This fair value measurement was based on significant revenue and EBITDA inputs not observed in the market, which represents a Level 3
measurement. Level 3 instruments are valued based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Company’s own assumptions in measuring fair value.
In accordance with the FASB’s standard on business combinations, the Company reviewed the contingent earn out liability on a quarterly basis in order to determine its fair value. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded within operating expenses in the period in which the change was made. The change in the fair value of the contingent earn-out was not material from the date of acquisition to the year ending October 31, 2017.

The Company’s non-financial assets, which primarily consist of property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, on a periodic basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill), non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written down to and recorded at fair value. No adjustments were made to the carrying value of any such assets due to lack of recoverability or impairment for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2017 or 2016.

Note 7. Long Term Debt and Revolving Lines of Credit
Revolving line of credit:   In connection with the Merger, on August 18, 2014, the Company entered into a revolving loan agreement (the Revolver) with a maximum borrowing capacity of  $30,000,000, which was increased to $35,000,000 in November 2015. The Revolver bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin resets quarterly and is (a) 2.25 percent, (b) 2.50 percent or (c) 2.75 percent if the quarterly average excess availability is (a) at least 66.67 percent, (b) less than 66.67 percent and at least 33.33 percent and (c) less than 33.33 percent, respectively. The Revolver expires on August 18, 2019. Interest is due monthly and the outstanding principal balance is due upon maturity. The Revolver is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and requires that the Company maintains a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. In conjunction with the Senior Note Exchange (see below) in September 2017, the borrowing capacity was increased to $65,000,000 and the maturity date was extended to September 8, 2022. In addition, applicable margin for the interest rate was decreased to (a) 2.00 percent, (b) 2.25 percent or (c) 2.50 percent if the quarterly average excess availability is (a) at least 66.67 percent, (b) less than 66.67 percent and at least 33.33 percent and (c) less than 33.33 percent, respectively. On October 2, 2017, $35,000,000 of the Revolver balance was transferred to a 3-month line of credit with a separate LIBOR interest rate which was 3.56 percent as of October 31, 2017.

Note 7. Long Term Debt and Revolving Lines of Credit – (Continued)
The Revolver requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total fixed charges, which include interest, principal payments, taxes and management fees to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization) less capital expenditures during the term of the Revolver. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016 the Company was in compliance with the financial covenant under the Revolver.
The outstanding balance of the Revolver as of October 31, 2017 and 2016 was $44,597,240 and $3,607,239, respectively.
UK Revolver:   In connection with the acquisition of Camfaud in November 2016 (see Note 3), the Oxford Group entered into a revolving loan agreement (the UK Revolver) with a maximum borrowing capacity of approximately $28,000,000. The UK Revolver bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus 2 percent and expires in November 2019. The UK Revolver is secured by substantially all assets of the Oxford Group. The outstanding balance of the UK Revolver as of October 31, 2017, was $21,291,631.
The UK Revolver requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total fixed charges, which include interest, principal payments, taxes and management fees to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization) less capital expenditures during the term of the Revolver. As of October 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenant under the Revolver.
Senior secured notes:   To finance the Merger on August 18, 2014, the Company issued senior secured notes through a high-yield bond offering under SEC Rule 144A (Senior Notes). The offering raised $140,000,000 of proceeds for the Company. The Senior Notes mature on September 1, 2021, and bear interest at 10.375 percent per annum. Interest payments are due every March 1 and September 1 commencing March 1, 2015. Principal is due upon maturity. The Senior Notes are partially held by a shareholder of the Company, secured by substantially all assets of the Company and contain various non-financial covenants.
The Senior Notes contain a number of significant restrictive covenants. Such restrictive covenants, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the Company’s restricted subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness and make guarantees; create liens on assets; pay dividends and distributions or repurchase their capital stock; make investments, loans and advances, including acquisitions; engage in mergers, consolidations, dissolutions or similar transactions; sell or otherwise dispose of assets, engage in certain transactions with affiliates; enter into certain restrictive agreements.
To finance the acquisition of Camfaud (Note 3), in November 2016, the Company issued additional senior secured notes of  $40,000,000 as an incremental borrowing with the same terms and form as the original Senior Notes.
In January 2016, the Company repurchased and retired approximately $7,665,000 of outstanding Senior Notes for a purchase price of approximately $7,205,100 plus accrued interest of approximately $292,000. In April 2016, the Company repurchased and retired $10,000,000 of outstanding Senior Notes for a purchase price of  $10,150,000 plus accrued interest of approximately $164,000. In March 2017, the Company repurchased and retired approximately $3,000,000 of outstanding Senior Notes for a purchase price of approximately $3,090,000 plus accrued interest of approximately $5,000. In May 2017, the Company repurchased and retired approximately $2,807,000 of outstanding Senior Notes for a purchase price of approximately $2,975,000 plus accrued interest of approximately $54,000. In September 2017, the Company repurchased and retired approximately $3,000,000 of outstanding Senior Notes for a purchase price of approximately $3,045,000 plus accrued interest of approximately $24,000.
As a result of these repurchases, the Company recognized a loss (gain) of  $303,420 and ($287,962) for the difference between the carrying amount of the Senior Notes, plus accrued interest, and the repurchase price, and also recognized a loss of  $260,380 and $931,838 related to the write off of deferred loan fees

(Note 2) for the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The net loss has been presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as a loss on extinguishment of debt for the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016. The difference between the carrying amount and the reacquisition price of the debt, net of unamortized loan fees, has been presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as a (loss) gain on debt extinguishment.
On August 24, 2017, the Company issued a Notice of Early Tender to exchange their Senior Notes for newly issued senior secured notes (New Senior Notes). Substantially all investors exchanged their outstanding notes (the Senior Note Exchange), which settled in September 2017. The New Senior Notes bear interest at 10.375 percent per annum and mature on September 1, 2023. The Company will make interest payments on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The outstanding balance of the original Senior Notes outstanding as of October 31, 2017 and 2016, was $1,266,000 and $121,360,000, respectively. The outstanding balance of the New Senior Notes outstanding as of October 31, 2017, was $151,287,000.
After settlement of the New Senior Notes, the Company increased the total borrowing capacity of the Revolver, for which the proceeds were used to pay off the unsecured note and to pay accrued and unpaid dividends on the 13.5 percent participating preferred stockholders (Note 12).
Unsecured note:   To finance the Merger, on August 18, 2014, the Company entered into a $30,000,000 loan agreement with one of its shareholders. The note matures on February 18, 2022, and bears interest at 12 percent per annum. Interest payments are due quarterly on February 18, May 18, August 18 and November 18 every year. Principal, along with any accrued and unpaid interest, is due upon maturity. The Company may elect to have the interest paid-in kind (PIK). If the Company elects to pay PIK interest, the accrued interest will be added to the outstanding balance of the note and payable upon maturity. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016, all interest associated with the PIK has been paid by the Company. The unsecured notes contain various non-financial covenants.
As part of the unsecured note, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to the lender. As such, the proceeds of the unsecured note have been allocated to the debt and common stock based on their relative fair values. The amount allocated to common stock was $2,478,602, which was recorded as a discount on the debt. The discount is amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the loan using the effective interest method. During the years ended October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, amortization of the discount was $275,400, $330,480 and $330,480, respectively.
In connection with the Senior Note Exchange on September 8, 2017, the Company repaid the unsecured note, including accrued interest of  $210,000. Upon extinguishment, the Company incurred a prepayment penalty fee of  $1,440,000, which has been included in loss on debt extinguishment on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company also wrote off the remaining unamortized discount of  $1,473,392, which has also been included in loss on debt extinguishment on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company wrote-off of  $1,712,194 of unamortized loan fees, including accumulated amortization of  $1,088,806. Net write-off is included in the loss on extinguishment of debt on the consolidated statements of income.
Seller notes:   In connection with the acquisitions of Camfaud and Reilly in November 2016 and July 2017 (see Note 3), respectively, the Company entered into loan agreements with the former owners of Camfaud and Reilly for an aggregate amount of  $6,221,000 and $1,941,150, respectively, (collectively, the Seller Notes). The Camfaud Note bears interest at 5 percent per annum and all principal plus accrued interest are due upon the earlier of; (1) 6 months after the UK Revolver is repaid in full, (2) 42 months after the acquisition date (May 2020) or (3) the date on which the Company suffers an insolvency event. The Reilly Note bears interest at 5 percent per annum and all principal plus accrued interest are due three years after the acquisition date (July 2020). The Seller Notes are unsecured.

The Company does not have any federal net operating loss carry forwards as of October 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company has state net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $6,000 and $6,000 respectively as of October 31, 2017 and 2016 that begin to expire in 2018.
The Company has foreign tax credit carryforwards of approximately $80,000 and $0 as of October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which begin to expire in 2027.
The Company has provided U.S. deferred taxes on cumulative earnings of all of its non-U.S. affiliates.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, carryback opportunities, and tax planning strategies in making the assessment. The Company believes it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the valuation allowance provided. The valuation allowance provided by the Company relates to foreign tax credit carryforwards.
In December 2017, the U.S. Government passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which, among other things, reduces the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. As a result of the enacted law, the Company will revalue deferred tax assets and liabilities at the enacted rate, and reflect that change in its consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2018. The rate change will impact both the current year tax expense and the deferred tax expense for fiscal year 2018, as the tax rate for the fiscal year will be a blended rate based on the period before and after
December 31, 2017. Additionally, the enacted law makes significant changes in the taxation of foreign subsidiaries of U.S. companies. As a result of these changes, a U.S. company will be required to include in

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 10. Income Taxes – (Continued)
U.S. taxable income the total amount of unremitted foreign earnings of its controlled foreign subsidiaries. This inclusion is effective for a foreign corporation’s fiscal year beginning prior to 2018, thus effective for fiscal year 2019 for the Company. Therefore, the Company will need to compute the incremental U.S. tax that would be payable under the enacted law. This will require the Company to prepare an earnings and profits analysis for each of their foreign subsidiaries, and determine the available foreign tax pools, since the incremental tax can be offset by foreign taxes. The Company is still evaluating the impact that the new enacted law will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
Incentive compensation plan:   The Company has an Incentive Compensation Plan that has been approved by the Board of Directors. The Plan establishes a cash bonus pool for eligible employees of the Company. The balance available for the cash bonus pool is established by meeting certain performance targets. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company accrued $2,131,945 and $2,819,616, respectively, of bonuses payable under the Incentive Compensation Plan, which has been included in accrued payroll and payroll expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Self-insurance:   BB’s automobile, general and workmen’s compensation insurance is partially self-insured. As of October 31, 2017, the general liability deductible was $100,000 per claim. Beginning in fiscal years 2010 and 2014, the workmen’s compensation and automobile policies, respectively, were fully-insured. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016, management has accrued $2,418,000 and $2,149,000, respectively, for claims incurred but not reported and estimated losses reported, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company offers employee health benefits via a partially self-insured medical benefit plan. Participant claims exceeding certain limits are covered by a stop-loss insurance policy. The Company contracts with a third party administrator to process claims, remit benefits, etc. The third party administrator requires the Company to maintain a bank account to facilitate the administration of claims. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016, the account balance was $234,167 and $282,989, respectively, and is included in cash in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of October 31, 2017 and 2016, management has accrued $737,000 and $458,000, respectively, for health claims incurred but not reported based on historical claims amounts and average lag time, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Litigation:   The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings and other disputes with third parties that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Management has reviewed these issues to determine if reserves are required for losses that are probable to materialize and reasonable to estimate the amount of loss in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies (ASC 450). Management evaluates such reserves, if any, based upon several criteria, including the merits of each claim, settlement discussions, advice of outside counsel, as well as indemnification of amounts expended by the Company’s insurers or others, if any. Management and corporate counsel believe that the outcomes of the legal actions will not have a material impact and do not believe that any amounts need to be recorded for contingent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
Life insurance:   BB is the owner and beneficiary of term life insurance policies on the lives of its key employees. As of October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, the aggregate face value of the policies was $4,000,000, $10,000,000 and $10,000,000, respectively. The policies do not have a cash surrender value.
Letters of credit:   The Revolver provides for up to $5,000,000 of standby letters of credit. As of October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, approximately $48,000, $125,000 and $201,000, respectively, had been committed to the Company’s general liability insurance provider.
Operating leases:   The Company leases facilities, equipment and vehicles under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through August 2023. Monthly lease payments range from

Capital leases:   BB entered into two capital leases for land and buildings in Georgia and South Carolina during fiscal year 2015. The terms of the Georgia and South Carolina leases are 123 and 120 months, respectively, and contain purchase options that may be exercised at any time during the lease. The purchase price payable upon exercise of the purchase options is equal to the fair value of the leased assets less the amount of rent paid to date. The purchase price at the end of the lease is insignificant and, therefore, the leased assets are considered to transfer ownership at the end of the lease.
The land and buildings and related liabilities under the capital leases were recorded at the time of the lease at the lesser of the present value of the future payments due under the leases or the fair value of the leased assets. The amount of land and buildings and capital lease obligation originally recorded under the capital leases was $909,250. The capital lease obligation recorded as of October 31, 2017 and 2016 was $731,829 and $804,531, respectively. The net book value of the leased assets as of October 31, 2017 and 2016 was $851,619 and $873,304.
Camfaud also enters into capital leases for operating equipment. The capital lease obligation recorded as of October 31, 2017, was $113,962. The net book value of the leased assets as of October 31, 2017, was $135,452.

Note 12. Stockholders’ Equity – (Continued)
In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 6,576,289 shares of common stock to the Sponsor for $16,300,000. The Company also issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to one of the lenders as part of obtaining loan financing. The amount recorded of  $2,478,602 was based on an allocation of the loan proceeds based on the relative fair values of the common stock and debt. The amount was recorded as a discount on the debt, which was written off upon the Company’s repayment of the unsecured note during 2017 (see Note 6). The proceeds raised from the equity offering have been reduced by offering costs of $158,715. Also in connection with the Merger, the Company issued 2,423,711 shares of preferred stock to certain former owners of BB and EP. The preferred stock was recorded at its fair value, which was determined to be $15,182,053 as of the merger date.
During 2017, the Company purchased 81,447 shares of preferred stock from a stockholder for $1,400,009, and the difference between original cost and the purchase price of  $685,645 is included in retained earnings in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Redeemable preferred stock:   The Company’s preferred stock accrues cumulative dividends at 13.5 percent per annum that must be paid before dividends are paid to any other holders of capital stock, but are not payable until declared (Preferred Dividends). Preferred Dividends accrue daily based on the liquidation preference of the underlying shares and compound quarterly. Preferred stock holders are entitled to participating dividends, distributions declared or paid, or set aside for payment on the common stock whether payments consist of cash, securities, property, or other assets. To the extent that dividend or distributions are made in the form of securities, preferred stock holders are only entitled to receive the same class securities provided to the common stock holders.
The preferred stock also includes a liquidation preference of  $4.13 per share (Liquidation Preference). Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, before any distributions are made to holders of common stock, holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference plus all accrued but unpaid dividends. On September 8, 2017, upon settlement of the Senior Notes Exchange (Note 7), the Company declared and paid cumulative unpaid accrued dividends of  $4,840,065 to the preferred stockholders. As of October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 the liquidation preference of preferred stock was $9,845,139, $13,395,383 and $11,734,025, respectively, which includes Preferred Dividends of  $322,583, $3,385,457 and $1,724,099, respectively.
On the 66th month anniversary of the original issuance date (February 18, 2020), each holder of preferred stock may redeem their shares of preferred stock to the Company for a price equal to the fair value of the preferred stock on the redemption date. If it is determined that the presence of preferred stock would have a material adverse effect on the success of a qualified public offering, the shares of preferred stock shall be converted into shares of common stock upon the closing of a qualified public offering. This redemption feature is outside the holder’s control; however, the preferred shares contain disability conditions that allow for the Company to invoke said disability notice and prevent the payment upon execution of the aforementioned conversion if the Company so deems that the Company is not in a position to allow for the conversion as it would place the Company in a difficult financial position. The carrying value of preferred stock has not been subsequently adjusted to reflect redemption value as the Company does not believe redemption is probable due to the length of time before redemption can occur.
The holders of preferred stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of common stock. Each share of preferred stock is entitled to one vote.
The Company applies the accounting standards for distinguishing liabilities from equity when determining the classification and measurement of its preferred stock. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control are classified as temporary equity.

Note 12. Stockholders’ Equity – (Continued)
The Company has performed an analysis of the redemption features contained within the preferred stock and has determined that embedded features other than the change in control feature identified and evaluated have been determined to be solely within the control of the issuer. ASR 268 requires equity instruments with redemption features that are not solely within the control of the issuer to be classified outside of permanent equity, often referred to as classification in “temporary equity”. The Company has presented such amounts outside of temporary equity commensurate with the aforementioned guidance.
During 2017, the Company purchased 81,447 shares of preferred stock from a stockholder for $1,400,009. The difference of  $889,825 between the purchase price and original cost is included in retained earnings for the year ended October 31, 2017.
Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation
During 2015, the Company established the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2015 Plan”). Under the 2015 Plan, the Company may award stock options, restricted stock or other equity awards to certain employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates, including Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan. The 2015 Plan permits the issuance of up to 1,622,120 shares of the Company’s common stock. The vesting period and term of each option are determined at the date of grant and generally does not exceed ten years. The options may include time-vesting and/or performance-based vesting criteria. The options may be subject to forfeiture if certain vesting requirements are not met.
As of October 31, 2017, there were 221,536 shares of the Company’s common stock available for grant under the 2015 Plan. A summary of option activity for the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, is as follows:

The options granted to employees during the year ended October 31, 2017, included both time-vesting and performance-based vesting criteria. Of the 227,280 options granted, 54,000 are subject to time- vesting only. The time-vesting criteria specify that 20 percent of the options will vest on each of the first 5 anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the holder’s continued service through the vesting date. The remaining 173,280 options granted include both time-vesting and performance-based vesting criteria. For these grants, 50 percent of the options are subject to time-vesting and 50 percent are subject to performance-based vesting. The time-vesting criteria specify that 10 percent of the options shall vest on each of the first 5 anniversaries the grant date, subject to the holder’s continued service through the vesting date. The performance criteria stipulate that up to 10 percent of the options shall vest on each of the first 5

anniversaries of the grant date, based on the Company’s annual Earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the applicable year and provided that the Companies achieve a minimum annual EBITDA amount for that particular year, subject to the holder’s continued service through the vesting date.
The Company repurchased and cancelled 70,281 options during the year ended October 31, 2017, for $686,645. The repurchase price was less than the fair value of the options at the time of the repurchase and accordingly, no incremental compensation cost was recorded.
Compensation expense subject to the performance-based vesting criteria is recognized over the requisite service period only if the performance criteria are probable of being met. The fiscal year 2017 EBITDA target was not met, thus compensation expense was not recorded for the fiscal year 2017 performance vesting tranche with the exception of two individuals for which the Company waived the performance- based vesting criteria. The fiscal years 2016 and 2015 EBITDA targets were achieved by the Company and, therefore, the Company has recognized compensation expense related to those performance tranches. Compensation expense for time-based vesting options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Total compensation expense recognized by the Company for the years ended October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, is $362,345, $109,424 and $46,640, respectively, which has been included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As of October 31, 2017, stock-based compensation not yet recognized in income is $1,478,769, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years. Included in this amount is $578,409 of expense related to the performance-based awards, which will only be recognized if achievement of the performance targets is determined to be probable. The fair value of shares vested for the year ended October 31, 2017 was $393,734.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during 2017 was $8.16 per share. The fair value of share-based payments was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model requiring the use of subjective valuation assumptions. The Black-Scholes valuation model requires several inputs, including the expected stock price volatility. Volatility was determined using observations of historical stock prices for five comparable public companies. The Company’s options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates.
The fair value of options granted during 2017 was estimated using the following assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate
1.61%
Expected dividend yield
None
Expected volatility factor
45.37%
Expected option life (in years)
6.5
Actual forfeitures
None

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 14. Employee Benefits Plan
Retirement plans:   The Company offers a 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all employees of BB and EP, with the exception of certain union employees. Participating employees may elect to contribute, on a tax-deferred basis, a portion of their compensation, in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. For the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s matching contribution rate for non-collectively bargained employees was 25 percent of the first 4 percent and 50 percent of the first 7 percent of an employee’s gross earnings for BB and EP participants, respectively. The Company’s matching contribution may be changed at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Matching contributions vest 20 percent after 2 years of service and ratably thereafter until they are 100 percent vested after 6 years of service. During the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, certain union employees have collectively bargained for a matching contribution of 50 percent to 100 percent of the first 7 percent of base compensation that a participant contributed, and additional amounts may be contributed at the option of the Board of Directors. During the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, certain other union employees have collectively bargained for a defined contribution of  $4.50 and $4.25 per hour worked, respectively. Retirement plan contributions for the years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, were $442,262 and $445,162, respectively.
Camfaud operates a Small Self-Administered Scheme (SSAS), which is the equivalent of a U.S. defined contribution pension plan. The assets of the plan are held separately from those of Camfaud in an independently administered fund. Contributions by Camfaud to the SSAS amounted to $179,562 for the year ended October 31, 2017.
Multiemployer plans:   BB contributes to a number of multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under the terms of collective-bargaining agreements (CBAs) that cover its union-represented employees. The risks of participating in these multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects: (a) Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers; (b) If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers; and (c) If BB chooses to stop participating in some of its multiemployer plans, BB may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. BB has no intention of stopping its participation in any multiemployer plan.
The following is a summary of our contributions to each multiemployer pension plan for the years ended October 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015:
2017
2016
2015
California
$ 564,047 $ 603,516 $ 524,058
Oregon

Washington
145,517 124,595 94,639
Total contributions
$ 917,299 $ 924,936 $ 780,673
No plan was determined to be individually significant. There have been no significant changes that affect the comparability of the contributions. The Company reviews the funded status of each multiemployer defined benefit pension plan at each reporting period so as to monitor the certified zone status for each of the multiemployer defined benefit pension plans. The zone status for the multiemployer defined benefit pension plans for Oregon and Washington was Green (greater than 80% funded) and Yellow (less than 80% funded but greater than 65% funded) for the California multiemployer defined benefit pension plans. The funding status for the Oregon and Washington multiemployer defined benefit pension plans is at January 1, 2017 and January 1, 2016 for the California multiemployer defined benefit pension plan.
Government regulations impose certain requirements relative to multiemployer plans. In the event of plan termination or employer withdrawal, an employer may be liable for a portion of the plan’s unfunded

vested benefits. BB has not received information from the plans’ administrators to determine its share of unfunded vested benefits. BB does not anticipate withdrawal from the plans, nor is BB aware of any expected plan terminations.
The Company believes that the “construction industry” multiemployer plan exception may apply if the Company did withdraw from any of its current multiemployer plans. The “construction industry” exception generally delays the imposition of withdrawal liability in connection with an employer’s withdrawal from a “construction industry” multiemployer plan unless and until that employer resumes covered operations in the relevant geographic region without a corresponding resumption of contributions to the multiemployer plan. The Company has no intention of withdrawing, in either a complete or partial withdrawal, from any of the multiemployer plans to which the Company currently contributes; however, it has been assessed a withdrawal liability in the past.
Note 15. Segment Reporting
The Company conducts its business through the following reportable segments based on geography and the nature of services sold: U.S Concrete pumping — Brundage-Bone, U.K. Concrete Pumping —  Camfaud, Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan. The classifications are defined as follows:

U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone (Brundage-Bone) — consists of concrete pumping services sold to customers in the U.S.

U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud (Camfaud) — consists of concrete pumping services sold to customers in the U.K which represents foreign operations.

Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan (Eco-Pan) — consists of pans and containers rented to customers in the U.S and the disposal of the concrete waste material services sold to customers in the U.S.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenue, and measures segment performance based upon segment EBITDA (earnings before income, taxes, depreciation and amortization).
Non-allocated interest expense and various other administrative costs are reflected in Corporate. Corporate assets include cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, property and equipment.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (CPH, the Company or Parent) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on June 16, 2014. Concrete Pumping Intermediate Holdings, LLC (CPIH) was formed on June 16, 2014, as a Delaware limited liability company to acquire, through the creation of BB Merger Sub, Inc. (BBMI) and EP Merger Sub, Inc. (EPMI), all outstanding stock of Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc. (BBCPI, BB, or Brundage-Bone) and Eco-Pan, Inc. (EP or Eco-Pan) on August 18, 2014 (the Merger). BBMI and EPMI were formed on July 23, 2014, as Colorado corporations and wholly-owned subsidiaries of CPIH to merge with and into Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan, respectively, with Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan, respectively, being the surviving corporations. Concrete Pumping Property Holdings, LLC (PropCo), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPH, was incorporated in the state of Delaware on July 14, 2014, to hold certain real property that is leased to Brundage-Bone. CPH, CPIH, BBMI and EPMI commenced operations on August 18, 2014. The equity sponsor of the Parent is Peninsula Pacific Strategic Partners, LLC (the Sponsor).
Brundage-Bone was incorporated in the state of Colorado on October 31, 2011. Brundage-Bone and its subsidiaries a concrete pumping service provider in the United States. Brundage-Bone’s core business is the provision of concrete pumping services to general contractors and concrete finishing companies. Eco-Pan was incorporated in the state of Colorado on April 4, 2003. Eco-Pan provides industrial cleanup and containment services, primarily to customers in the construction industry.
In November 2016, Brundage-Bone entered into two share purchase agreements to acquire two concrete pumping companies based in the United Kingdom (UK) (collectively Camfaud): Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and Premier Concrete Pumping Limited, which each also owned 50 percent of the stock of South Coast Concrete Pumping Limited. In connection with the transactions, a new entity, Oxford Pumping Holdings Ltd. (Oxford), was created as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brundage-Bone to serve as a UK-based holding company. In July 2017, Camfaud acquired Reilly Concrete Pumping Limited (Reilly), another UK-based concrete pumping company. As a result of these transactions, the UK based Companies collectively make up Camfaud. Refer to Note 3 for discussion of the acquisitions.
The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The information furnished in the condensed consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and statements of financial position for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with our fiscal 2017 consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation:   The Company follows accounting standards established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to ensure consistent reporting of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. References to generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or the Codification).
Principles of consolidation:   These financial statements present the consolidated financial position of CPH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CPIH, PropCo, Brundage-Bone, Eco-Pan, and the Oxford Group as of April 30, 2018 and 2017, and the results of operations and cash flows for the years then ended. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates:   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
F-71

Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include accrued sales and use taxes, the liability for incurred but unreported claims under various partially self-insured polices, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill impairment analysis, valuation of share based compensation and accounting for business combinations. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Cash:   Cash includes time deposits and certificates of deposit with original maturities of three months or less.
Trade receivables:   Trade receivables are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for their accounts receivable; however, the Company may file statutory liens or take other appropriate legal action when necessary on construction projects in which collection problems arise. A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days. The Company does not charge interest on past due trade receivables.
Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $570,804 and $601,760 as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017, respectively. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.
Inventory:   Inventory consists primarily of replacement parts for concrete pumping equipment. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The Company evaluates inventory and records an allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory to account for cost adjustments to market. Based on management’s analysis, no allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory was required as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017.
Fair Value Measurements:   The FASB’s standard on fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
This standard establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
Deferred financing costs:   The Company incurred closing costs of  $12,887,000 during the Merger related to obtaining loan financing. In conjunction with the Senior Note Exchange (Note 7) that occurred in September 2017, Brundage-Bone incurred $585,634 related to obtaining financing through additional term notes and $240,250 related to the US Revolver. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of the Oxford Group, costs of  $625,480 were incurred by Camfaud related to the UK Revolver. Deferred financing costs related to the revolver are classified as assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the revolver, while deferred financing costs related to the term debt are shown as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the liability and amortized over the terms of the related debt instruments under the effective interest method. Accumulated amortization related to the US Revolver fees

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $976,531 and $678,528, respectively. Accumulated amortization related to the UK Revolver fees as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $360,806 and $210,699, respectively. See Note 7 for discussion of the term debt financing fees.
Goodwill:   The Company accounts for goodwill under ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (ASC 350). The Company’s goodwill was recorded as a result of the Company’s business combinations. The Company has recorded these business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company tests its recorded goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on August 31, or more often if qualitative or quantitative indicators of potential exist, using either a qualitative or quantitative assessment. If a qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, a quantitative assessment is performed by determining if the carrying value of each reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Factors that could trigger an interim impairment test include, but are not limited to, underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the Company’s overall business, or significant negative industry or economic trends. Management has determined that the Company has 4 reporting units for the purposes of testing goodwill for impairment.
The Company determined that no impairment of goodwill existed as of the last testing date and there were no indicators that would require the management to reassess the impairment analysis of goodwill as of April 30, 2018. Future impairment reviews may require write-downs in the Company’s goodwill and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operating results for the periods in which such write-downs occur.
Long-lived assets:   ASC 360 requires other long-lived assets to be evaluated for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. If indicators are present, assets are grouped to the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other asset groups and cash flows are estimated for each asset group over the remaining estimated life of each asset group. If the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the asset’s carrying amount, impairment is recognized in the amount of excess of the carrying value over the fair value. No indicators of impairment were identified as of April 30, 2018. Intangible assets with finite lives are being amortized on a straight-line basis, except for customer relationships, over their estimated useful lives. The customer relationships are being amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful lives.
Property, plant and equipment:   Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for additions and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; however, maintenance and repairs that improve or extend the life of existing assets are capitalized. The carrying amount of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal. Gains or losses from property and equipment disposals are recognized in the year of disposal.
Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings and improvements
15 to 40 years
Capital lease assets – buildings
40 years
Furniture and office equipment
2 to 7 years
Machinery and equipment
3 to 25 years
Transportation equipment
3 to 7 years
Capital lease assets are being amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset (see Note 11). Capital lease amortization is included in total depreciation expense for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and April 30, 2017.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
Revenue recognition:   The Company generates revenues primarily from concrete pumping services in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Additionally, revenues are generated from the Company’s waste management business which consists of service fees charged to customers for the delivery of our pans and containers and the disposal of the concrete waste material.
The Company recognizes revenue from these businesses when all of the following criteria are met: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (b) the service has been performed or delivery has occurred, (c) the price is fixed or determinable, and (d) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s delivery terms for replacement part sales are FOB shipping point.
The Company imposes and collects sales taxes concurrent with our revenue-producing transactions with customers and remit those taxes to the various governmental authorities as prescribed by the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate. We present such taxes in our consolidated statements of income on a net basis.
Stock-based compensation:   The Company follows ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (ASC 718), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all share-based awards made to employees and directors. The value of the vested portion of the award is recognized as expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income over the requisite service periods. Compensation expense for all share-based awards is recognized using the straight-line method. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur in accordance with the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.
Foreign currency translation:   The functional currency of Camfaud is the Pound Sterling (GBP). The assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries are translated into US dollars using the year end exchange rates, and the consolidated statements of income are translated at the average rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and accumulated in other comprehensive income. The functional currency of our other subsidiaries is the United States Dollar.
Income taxes:   The Company complies with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires a liability approach to financial reporting for income taxes. The Company computes deferred income tax assets and liabilities annually for differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense includes both the current income taxes payable or refundable and the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized in the consolidated balance sheets if the tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon an examination. CPIH and PropCo are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are included in the income tax provision, if any.
Camfaud files income tax returns in the UK. Camfaud’s national statutes are generally open for one year following the statutory filing period.
Business combinations:   The Company applies the principles provided in ASC 805, Business Combinations, when a business is acquired. Tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value and goodwill is recognized for any differences between the fair value of
F-74

consideration transferred and price of the acquisition and the fair value of net assets acquired determination. The Company estimates all purchase costs and other related transactions on the acquisition date. Transaction costs for the acquisitions business combinations are expensed as incurred in accordance with ASC 805.
Seasonality:   The Company’s sales are historically seasonal, with lower revenue in the first quarter and higher revenue in the fourth quarter of each year. Such seasonality also causes the Company’s working capital cash flow requirements to vary from quarter to quarter primarily depends on the variability of weather patterns with the Company generally having lower sales volume during the winter and spring months.
Vendor Concentration: As of April 30, 2017 and 2018 there were three significant vendors that the Company relies upon to purchase concrete pumping boom equipment. These vendors provided sales of concrete pumping boom equipment that can be replaced with alternate vendors should the need arise.
Concentration of credit risk:   Cash balances held at financial institutions may, at times, be in excess of federally insured limits. It is management’s belief that the Company places their temporary cash balances in high-credit quality financial institutions.
The Company’s customer base is dispersed across the United States and United Kingdom. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of their customers’ financial condition and requires no collateral to support credit sales. During the periods ended April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017, no customer represented 10 percent or more of revenue or trade receivables.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective:   In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 requires entities to use a screen test to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business or if the integrated set of assets and activities needs to be further evaluated against the framework. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for the Company beginning on November 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Initially the modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases Topic 842: Targeted Improvements, wherein the Board decided to provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (such as January 1, 2019, for calendar year-end public business entities) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption consistent with preparers’ requests. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. This ASU simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the requirement for entities to separate deferred tax liabilities and assets into current and
F-75

Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
noncurrent amounts in classified balance sheets. Instead, it requires deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent in the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, and this ASU may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption of this standard on a retrospective basis, all deferred income tax assets and liabilities will be presented as noncurrent.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either a full retrospective or retrospective with cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 one year making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent events:   The Company has evaluated subsequent events through September 10, 2018, the date the consolidated financial statements were available for issuance, and has determined that no such matters require disclosure except as disclosed in the Merger Agreement signed between the Company and Industrea Acquisition Corporation effective September 7, 2018 as disclosed in the Form 8-K put forth by Industrea Acquisition Corporation dated September 7, 2018. Therein it is disclosed that the Company had entered into a Merger Agreement. The transactions set forth in the Merger Agreement with result in a Business Combination involving the Company wherein the Company will be acquired by Industrea Acquisition Corporation.
Note 3. Business Combinations
O’Brien Companies:   In April 2018, Brundage-Bone entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire substantially all assets of Richard O’Brien Companies, Inc., O’Brien Concrete Pumping-Arizona, Inc., O’Brien Concrete Pumping-Colorado, Inc. and O’Brien Concrete Pumping, LLC (collectively, the O’Brien Companies) for cash.
This acquisition qualifies as a business combination under ASC 805. Accordingly, the Company will record all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values, with any excess recognized as goodwill. Goodwill represents expected synergies from combining operations and the assembled workforce. Goodwill is not amortized for book purposes but is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The acquisition was part of the Company’s strategic plan to expand their presence in the Colorado and Arizona markets.

Identifiable intangible assets acquired consist of customer relationships of  $15,933,225 and trade names of  $2,641,437. The customer relationships were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company determined the useful life of the customer relationships to be 15 years. The trade name was valued using the relief-from-royalty method. The Company determined the useful life of the trade names to be 10 years.
The Company also entered into loans with the former owners that are discussed in Note 7.
Total acquisition-related expenses incurred by the Company amounted to $6,608,456, of which $3,566,407 has been recognized in the consolidated statements of income for the six months ended April 30, 2017.
Note 4. Fair Value Measurement
The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current accrued liabilities approximate their fair value as recorded due to the short-term maturity of these instruments, which approximates fair value. The Company’s outstanding obligations on its revolving line of credit and UK revolver are deemed to be at fair value as the interest rates on these debt obligations are variable and consistent with prevailing rates. The Company believes the carry value of our capital lease obligations represents fair value.
The Company’s long-term debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in the consolidated balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The fair value amount of the long-term debt instruments are derived from observable inputs other than level 1 prices. The fair value amounts are derived from observable inputs at level 2 prices. The fair value amount of the Long-term debt instruments at April 30, 2018 is presented in the table below based on the prevailing interest rates and trading activity of the Notes.

In connection with the acquisition of Camfaud, shareholders were eligible to receive earnout payments of up to $3,100,000 if certain Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) targets were met (Note 3).
As a result, the Company estimated the fair value of the contingent earnout liability based on its probability assessment of Oxford’s EBITDA achievements during the 3 year earnout period. In developing these estimates, the Company considered its revenue and EBITDA projections, its historical results, and general macro-economic environment and industry trends. This fair value measurement was based on significant revenue and EBITDA inputs not observed in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement. Level 3 instruments are valued based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Company’s own assumptions in measuring fair value.
In accordance with the FASB’s standard on business combinations, the Company reviewed the contingent earnout liability on a quarterly basis in order to determine its fair value. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded within operating expenses in the period in which the change was made.

The outstanding balance of the Revolver as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $62,655,410 and $65,888,871, respectively.
Senior secured notes:   To finance the Merger on August 18, 2014, the Company issued senior secured notes through a high-yield bond offering under SEC Rule 144A (Senior Notes).

Principal, along with any accrued and unpaid interest, is due upon maturity. The Company may elect to have the interest paid-in kind (PIK). If the Company elects to pay PIK interest, the accrued interest will be added to the outstanding balance of the note and payable upon maturity. As of April 30, 2017 all interest associated with the PIK has been paid by the Company. The unsecured notes contain various non-financial covenants.
As part of the unsecured note, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to the lender. As such, the proceeds of the unsecured note have been allocated to the debt and common stock based on their relative fair values. The amount allocated to common stock was $2,478,602, which was recorded as a discount on the debt. The discount is amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the loan using the effective interest method. During the six months ended April 30, 2017 amortization of the discount was $165,240.
In connection with the Senior Note Exchange on September 8, 2017, the Company repaid the unsecured note, including accrued interest of  $210,000. Upon extinguishment, the Company incurred a prepayment penalty fee of  $1,440,000.

The net deferred tax liability is principally comprised of temporary differences related to intangible assets and property and equipment. The decrease in the net deferred tax liability as of April 30, 2018 is primarily related to the reduction of the U.S. corporate income tax rate provided in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 10. Income Taxes – (Continued)
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, carryback opportunities, and tax planning strategies in making the assessment. The Company believes it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the valuation allowance provided.
In December 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”) was enacted. The 2017 Tax Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, among other things, lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which provides SEC staff guidance for the application of ASC Topic 740, the Company recognized the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act in its financial statements in the period the 2017 Tax Act was signed into law. As such, the Company’s financial statements for the period ended January 31, 2018 reflect the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act for which the accounting is complete and provisional amounts for those specific income tax effects for which the accounting is incomplete but a reasonable estimate could be determined. The Company did not identify items for which the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act have not been completed and a reasonable estimate could not be determined as of April 30, 2018.
As a result of the 2017 Tax Act, the Company recorded a provisional tax benefit of  $14,392,000 for the period ended April 30, 2018 related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent.
The Company also recorded a provisional tax expense of  $467,000 for the period ended April 30, 2018 related to the deemed repatriation of earnings from its foreign subsidiaries.
Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
Incentive compensation plan:   The Company has an Incentive Compensation Plan that has been approved by the Board of Directors. The Plan establishes a cash bonus pool for eligible employees of the Company. The balance available for the cash bonus pool is established by meeting certain performance targets. As of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 the Company accrued $1,513,749 and $2,131,945, respectively of bonuses payable under the Incentive Compensation Plan, which has been included in accrued payroll and payroll expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Self-insurance:   Brundage-Bone’s automobile, general and workmen’s compensation insurance is partially self-insured. As of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 the general liability deductible was $100,000 per claim. Beginning in fiscal years 2010 and 2014, the workmen’s compensation and automobile policies, respectively, were fully-insured. As of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 management has accrued $2,807,204 and $2,418,000, respectively, for claims incurred but not reported and estimated losses reported, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies – (Continued)
Litigation:   The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings and other disputes with third parties that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Management has reviewed these issues to determine if reserves are required for losses that are probable to materialize and reasonable to estimate the amount of loss in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies (ASC 450). Management evaluates such reserves, if any, based upon several criteria, including the merits of each claim, settlement discussions, advice of outside counsel, as well as indemnification of amounts expended by the Company’s insurers or others, if any. Management and corporate counsel believe that the outcomes of the legal actions will not have a material impact and do not believe that any amounts need to be recorded for contingent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
Life insurance:   Brundage-Bone is the owner and beneficiary of term life insurance policies on the lives of its key employees. As of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 the aggregate face value of the policies was $4,000,000 for both periods presented. The policies do not have a cash surrender value.
Letters of credit:   The Revolver provides for up to $5,000,000 of standby letters of credit. As of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017, total outstanding letters of credit totaled $1,582,997 and $48,000, respectively, of which $882,999 and $48,000 had been committed to the Company’s general liability insurance provider and the remaining $699,998 and $0 committed to a vendor.
Operating leases:   The Company leases facilities, equipment and vehicles under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through August 2023. Monthly lease payments range from $200 to $9,185. Total rental expense, including related parties, for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017 was $1,637,060 and $913,133, which also includes the Company’s month-to-month leases.
The following is a summary of future minimum lease payments for the fiscal years ending October 31:

Capital leases:   Brundage-Bone entered into two capital leases for land and buildings in Georgia and South Carolina during fiscal year 2015. The terms of the Georgia and South Carolina leases are 123 and 120 months, respectively, and contain purchase options that may be exercised at any time during the lease. The purchase price payable upon exercise of the purchase options is equal to the fair value of the leased assets less the amount of rent paid to date. The purchase price at the end of the lease is insignificant and, therefore, the leased assets are considered to transfer ownership at the end of the lease.
The land and buildings and related liabilities under the capital leases were recorded at the time of the lease at the lesser of the present value of the future payments due under the leases or the fair value of the leased assets. The amount of land and buildings and capital lease obligation originally recorded under the capital leases was $909,250. The capital lease obligation recorded as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $693,375 and $731,829, respectively. The net book value of the leased assets as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $840,776 and $851,619, respectively.
Camfaud also enters into capital leases for operating equipment. The capital lease obligation recorded as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $763,455 and $845,791, respectively. The net book value of the leased assets as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was $70,079 and $135,452, respectively.

Note 12. Stockholders’ Equity
Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, the Company was initially authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of  $0.001 par value common stock and 2,423,711 shares of  $0.001 par value preferred stock. In March 2016, the Company amended the articles of incorporation to reduce the number of shares of common stock the Company is authorized to issue to 15,000,000 shares.
In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 6,576,289 shares of common stock to the Sponsor for $16,300,000. The Company also issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to one of the lenders as part of obtaining loan financing. The amount recorded of  $2,478,602 was based on an allocation of the loan proceeds based on the relative fair values of the common stock and debt. The amount was recorded as a discount on the debt, which was written off upon the Company’s repayment of the unsecured note during 2017 (see Note 7). The proceeds raised from the equity offering have been reduced by offering costs of $158,715. Also in connection with the Merger, the Company issued 2,423,711 shares of preferred stock to certain former owners of Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan. The preferred stock was recorded at its fair value, which was determined to be $15,182,053 as of the merger date.
Redeemable preferred stock:   The Company’s preferred stock accrues cumulative dividends at 13.5 percent per annum that must be paid before dividends are paid to any other holders of capital stock, but are not payable until declared (Preferred Dividends). Preferred Dividends accrue daily based on the liquidation preference of the underlying shares and compound quarterly. The preferred stock also includes a liquidation preference of  $4.13 per share (Liquidation Preference). Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, before any distributions are made to holders of common stock, holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference plus all accrued but unpaid dividends.
On September 8, 2017, upon settlement of the Senior Notes Exchange (Note 7), the Company declared and paid cumulative unpaid accrued dividends of  $4,840,065 to the preferred stockholders. As of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017 the liquidation preference of preferred stock was $10,519,036 and $9,845,139, respectively, which includes Preferred Dividends of  $996,479 and $322,582, respectively.
On the 66th month anniversary of the original issuance date (February 18, 2020), each holder of preferred stock may redeem their shares of preferred stock to the Company for a price equal to the fair value of the preferred stock on the redemption date. If it is determined that the presence of preferred stock would have a material adverse effect on the success of a qualified public offering, the shares of preferred stock shall be converted into shares of common stock upon the closing of a qualified public offering. This

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 12. Stockholders’ Equity – (Continued)
As the redemption feature is outside the holder’s control; however, the preferred shares contain disability conditions that allow for the Company to invoke said disability notice and prevent the payment upon execution of the aforementioned conversion if the Company so deems that the Company is not in a position to allow for the conversion as it would place the Company in a difficult financial position. The carrying value of preferred stock has not been subsequently adjusted to reflect redemption value as the Company does not believe redemption is probable due to the length of time before redemption can occur.
The holders of preferred stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of common stock. Each share of preferred stock is entitled to one vote.
The Company applies the accounting standards for distinguishing liabilities from equity when determining the classification and measurement of its preferred stock. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares (including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity.
The Company has performed an analysis of the redemption features contained within the preferred stock and has determined that embedded features other than the change in control feature identified and evaluated have been determined to be solely within the control of the issuer. ASR 268 requires equity instruments with redemption features that are not solely within the control of the issuer to be classified outside of permanent equity, often referred to as classification in “temporary equity”. The Company has presented such amounts outside of temporary equity commensurate with the aforementioned guidance.
Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation
During 2015, the Company established the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2015 Plan”). Under the 2015 Plan, the Company may award stock options, restricted stock or other equity awards to certain employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates, including Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan. The 2015 Plan permits the issuance of up to 1,622,120 shares of the Company’s common stock. The vesting period and term of each option are determined at the date of grant and generally does not exceed ten years. The options may include time-vesting and/or performance-based vesting criteria. The options may be subject to forfeiture if certain vesting requirements are not met. As of April 30, 2018, there were 222,736 shares of the Parent’s common stock available for grant under the 2015 Plan. A summary of option activity for the six months ended April 30, 2018, is as follows:

The options granted to employees during the year ended October 31, 2017, included both time-vesting and performance-based vesting criteria. Of the 227,280 options granted, 54,000 are subject to time-vesting only. The time-vesting criteria specify that 20 percent of the options will vest on each of the first 5 anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the holder’s continued service through the vesting date. The remaining 173,280 options granted include both time-vesting and performance-based vesting criteria. For

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation – (Continued)
these grants, 50 percent of the options are subject to time-vesting and 50 percent are subject to performance-based vesting. The time-vesting criteria specify that 10 percent of the options shall vest on each of the first 5 anniversaries the grant date, subject to the holder’s continued service through the vesting date.
The performance criteria stipulate that up to 10 percent of the options shall vest on each of the first 5 anniversaries of the grant date, based on the Company’s annual EBITDA for the applicable year and provided that the Companies achieve a minimum annual EBITDA amount for that particular year, subject to the holder’s continued service through the vesting date.
Compensation expense subject to the performance-based vesting criteria is recognized over the requisite service period only if the performance criteria are probable of being met. The fiscal year 2017 EBITDA target was not met, thus compensation expense was not recorded for the fiscal year 2017 performance vesting tranche with the exception of two individuals for which the Company waived the performance-based vesting criteria. Compensation expense for time-based vesting options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Total compensation expense recognized by the Company for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017 is $187,088 and 192,392, respectively, which has been included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As of April 30, 2018, stock-based compensation not yet recognized in income is $1,281,889, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years. Included in this amount is $504,505 of expense related to the performance-based awards, which will only be recognized if achievement of the performance targets is determined to be probable. The fair value of shares vested for the six months ended April 30, 2017 was $188,312.

The fair value of share-based payments was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model requiring the use of subjective valuation assumptions. The Black-Scholes valuation model requires several inputs, including the expected stock price volatility. Volatility was determined using observations of historical stock prices for five comparable public companies. The Company’s options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates.
Note 14. Employee Benefit Plans
Retirement plans:   The Company offers a 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all employees of Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan, with the exception of certain union employees. Participating employees may elect to contribute, on a tax-deferred basis, a portion of their compensation, in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. For the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s matching contribution rate for non-collectively bargained employees was 25 percent of the first 4 percent and 50 percent of the first 7 percent of an employee’s gross earnings for Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan participants, respectively. The Company’s matching contribution may be changed at the discretion

Note 14. Employee Benefit Plans – (Continued)
of the Board of Directors. Matching contributions vest 20 percent after two years of service and ratably thereafter until they are 100 percent vested after six years of service. During the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, certain union employees have collectively bargained for a matching contribution of 50 percent to 100 percent of the first 7 percent of base compensation that a participant contributed, and additional amounts may be contributed at the option of the Board of Directors.
During the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, certain other union employees have collectively bargained for a defined contribution of  $4.50 and $4.25 per hour worked, respectively. Retirement plan contributions for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017 were $235,426 and $188,432, respectively.
Camfaud operates a Small Self-Administered Scheme (SSAS), which is the equivalent of a U.S. defined contribution pension plan. The assets of the plan are held separately from those of Camfaud in an independently administered fund. Contributions by Camfaud to the SSAS amounted to $123,142 and $52,443 for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Multiemployer plans:   Brundage-Bone contributes to a number of multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under the terms of collective-bargaining agreements (CBAs) that cover its union-represented employees. The risks of participating in these multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects: (a) Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers; (b) If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers; and (c) If Brundage-Bone chooses to stop participating in some of its multiemployer plans, Brundage-Bone may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. Brundage-Bone has no intention of stopping its participation in any multiemployer plan.
The following is a summary of our contributions to each multiemployer pension plan for the six months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017:
2018
2017
California
$ 231,612 $ 269,223
Oregon
112,028 95,202
Washington
100,105 56,066
Total contributions
$ 443,745 $ 420,491
No plan was determined to be individually significant. There have been no significant changes that affect the comparability of the contributions. The Company reviews the funded status of each multiemployer defined benefit pension plans at each reporting period so as to monitor the certified zone status for each of the multiemployer defined benefit pension plans. The zone status for the multiemployer defined benefit pension plans for Oregon and Washington was Green (greater than 80% funded) and Yellow (less than 80% funded but greater than 65% funded) for the California multiemployer defined benefit pension plans. The funding status for the Oregon and Washington multiemployer defined benefit pension plans is at January 1, 2017 and January 1, 2016 for the California multiemployer defined benefit pension plans.
Government regulations impose certain requirements relative to multiemployer plans. In the event of plan termination or employer withdrawal, an employer may be liable for a portion of the plan’s unfunded vested benefits. Brundage-Bone has not received information from the plans’ administrators to determine its share of unfunded vested benefits. Brundage-Bone does not anticipate withdrawal from the plans, nor is Brundage-Bone aware of any expected plan terminations.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 14. Employee Benefit Plans – (Continued)
The Company believes that the “construction industry” multiemployer plan exception may apply if the Company did withdraw from any of its current multiemployer plans. The “construction industry” exception generally delays the imposition of withdrawal liability in connection with an employer’s withdrawal from a “construction industry” multiemployer plan unless and until that employer resumes covered operations in the relevant geographic region without a corresponding resumption of contributions to the multiemployer plan. The Company has no intention of withdrawing, in either a complete or partial withdrawal, from any of the multiemployer plans to which the Company currently contributes; however, it has been assessed a withdrawal liability in the past.
Note 15. Segment Reporting
The Company conducts the business through the following reportable segments based on geography and the nature of services sold: U.S Concrete pumping — Brundage-Bone, U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud, Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan. The classifications are defined as follows:

U.S. Concrete Pumping — Brundage-Bone (Brundage-Bone) — consists of concrete pumping services sold to customers in the U.S.

U.K. Concrete Pumping — Camfaud (Camfaud) — consists of concrete pumping services sold to customers in the U.K, which represents out foreign operations.

Concrete Waste Management Services — Eco-Pan (Eco-Pan) — consists of pans and containers rented to customers in the U.S and the disposal of the concrete waste material services sold to customers in the U.S.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenue, and measure segment performance based upon EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization).
Non-allocated interest expense and various other administrative costs are reflected in Corporate. Corporate assets include cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, property and equipment.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Directors
Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and its subsidiary (collectively, the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of November 16, 2016 and September 30, 2016 and 2015, the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from October 1, 2016 to November 16, 2016 and for the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements).
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and its subsidiary as of November 16, 2016 and September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from October 1, 2016 to November 16, 2016 and for the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.

Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Organization:   Camfaud Concrete Pumps Limited (Camfaud) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Camfaud Plant Limited (CPL) (collectively, the Company) are registered in the United Kingdom (UK). CPL has been dormant for several years and had no operations during the period from October 1, 2016 to November 16, 2016 (the period ended November 16, 2016), or the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Nature of business:   The Company is a leading concrete pumping service provider in the UK. The Company’s core business is the provision of concrete pumping equipment to customers in the commercial, infrastructure and homebuilding sectors. The Company provides the equipment operator and the equipment. The Company does not contract to purchase, mix, or to deliver concrete. The Company most often contracts for its equipment services on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule customized to each market. The Company has 28 branch locations throughout the UK, with its corporate headquarters in Epping, Essex.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation:   The Company follows accounting standards established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to ensure consistent reporting of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. References to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or the Codification).
Principles of consolidation:   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Camfaud and CPL. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
During 2014, the Company invested in a joint venture (Note 4) that is accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence over the investee but is not in control of the entity. The Company’s share of the earnings or losses of the joint venture is reflected in the caption ‘‘gain on equity method investment’’ in the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s carrying value in the joint venture is reflected in the caption ‘‘equity method investment’’ in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Use of estimates:   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Cash and cash equivalents:   The Company considers all time deposits with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.
Trade receivables:   Trade receivables are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for their trade receivables. A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days. The Company does not charge interest on past due trade receivables.
An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for those trade receivables considered to be uncollectible, based upon historical experience and management’s evaluation of the outstanding trade receivables at the end of the period. Uncollectible amounts are written off against the allowance after all collection efforts have been exhausted. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. At November 16, 2016, and September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had an allowance for bad debts of  £36,913, £17,428, and £20,135, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
Property, plant and equipment:   Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for additions and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; however, maintenance and repairs that improve or extend the life of existing assets are capitalized. The carrying amount of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal. Gains or losses from property and equipment disposals are recognized in the year of disposal. Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Land
Indefinite
Building
30 years
Property improvements
7 to 10 years
Motor pumps
10 years
Motor vehicles
5 years
Furniture and equipment
3 to 7 years
Impairment of long-lived assets:   The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used, including but not limited to capital assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of the long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset are less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss would be recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value would be determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. No indicators of impairment were identified as of November 16, 2016 and September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Revenue recognition:   The Company recognizes revenue in the period in which concrete pump services are performed, provided all of the following criteria are met: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (b) the service has been performed or delivery has occurred, (c) the price is fixed or determinable, and (d) collectability is reasonably assured. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to government agencies for specific-revenue producing transactions are recorded net with no effect on the income statement.
Income taxes:   The Company computes deferred income tax assets and liabilities annually for differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense includes both the current income taxes payable or refundable and the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions by following a two-step process for the measurement of uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken in a tax return. The first step is a determination of whether the tax position should be recognized in the financial statements. The second step determines the measurement of the tax position. Any tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized in the consolidated balance sheets if the tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon an examination. As of November 16, 2016, and September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company did not require a liability for uncertain tax positions and did not accrue any potential interest or penalties.
The Company files income tax returns in the UK. The Company’s national statutes are generally open for one year following the statutory filing period. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by HM Revenue & Customs for years before 2016.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)
Concentration of credit risk:   Cash balances held at financial institutions in the UK may, at times, be in excess of insured limits of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. It is management’s belief that the Company places their cash balances in high-credit quality financial institutions.
The Company’s customer base is dispersed across the U.K. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of their customers’ financial condition and requires no collateral to support credit sales. As of November 16, 2016 and September 30, 2016, one customer represented approximately 15 percent and 14 percent, respectively, of trade receivables. As of September 30, 2016, no customer represented more than 10 percent of trade receivables.
Major customers:   During the period ended November 16, 2016, one customer represented approximately 15 percent of sales. During the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, no customer represented more than 10 percent of sales.
Reclassifications:   Certain amounts on the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2015, have been reclassified for consistency with the presentation used in the period ended November 16, 2016 and the year ended September 30, 2016. These reclassifications had effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2015, to reclassify £153,246 from dividends paid in the financing activities section to reduce the net increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the operating activities section.
Recent accounting pronouncements:   In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either a full retrospective or retrospective with cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 one year making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

Depreciation expense not recorded to cost of operations is included as a component of general and administrative expenses.
Note 4. Equity Method Investment
During 2014, the Company created United Concrete Pumping Ltd. (UCP), a joint venture co-owned by Premier Concrete Pumping Group Ltd. (PCP). The entity was established in order to perform concrete pumping services in the UK. UCP was initially capitalized with a £1,300,000 investment to be used to fund the acquisitions of South Coast Concrete Pumping Limited and South Coast Concrete Pumping UK Limited, and was split evenly between the Company and PCP. The Company and PCP have a 50 percent equity ownership interest in UCP, with neither party having control over UCP. Accordingly, the Company accounts for its investment in UCP using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s investment was initially recorded at cost with subsequent adjustments to the carrying value to recognize additional investments in or distributions from UCP, as well as the Company’s share of UCP’s earnings, losses and/or changes in capital. The Company’s portion of UCP’s net income for the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, was £284,080 and £411,808, respectively. The Company records its share of its equity method investment’s operating results based on the most recent fiscal year end of the investment that precedes the fiscal year end for which the Company is reporting in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, for the period ended November 16, 2016, the Company has not recorded any amounts related to UCP’s results of operations as the most recently available financial statements of UCP preceding November 16, 2016, have been recorded in the year ended September 30, 2016.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies – (Continued)
Operating leases:   The Company leases office and depot facilities under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through September 2022. Monthly lease payments range from £121 to £8,750. Total rental expense for the period ended November 16, 2016 and the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, was £32,274, £217,064 and £218,804, respectively, which also includes the Company’s month-to-month leases.
The following is a summary of future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases with terms greater than one year:
Years ending September 30:
2017 (excluding payments made during the period ended November 16, 2016)
£ 87,500

Thereafter

£ 612,500
Claims and litigation:   The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business and routinely assesses all litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability, and records the best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where the Company assesses the likelihood of loss as probable. Although the Company does not expect that the outcome of any of these matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on financial condition or results of operations, litigation is inherently unpredictable. Therefore, judgments could be rendered or settlements entered, that could adversely affect operating results or cash flows in a particular period.

The Final Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared using the Accounting Principles; provided, however that (I) the Final Closing Balance Sheet shall not give effect to the consummation of the Mergers, including any payments of cash in respect of the Merger Consideration or any Financing transactions in connection therewith or, after the Concrete Effective Time, any other action or omission by Newco, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries that is not in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (II) the treatment of leases as capital leases or operating leases shall be identical to their treatment in the Interim Balance Sheet, and (III) the Final Closing Balance Sheet shall not reflect any expense or liability for which Newco is responsible under this Agreement. From the Closing Date through the final determination and payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.4, Newco shall provide the Holder Representative and its representatives reasonable access (during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice and at the sole cost and expense of the Holder Representative) to the records, properties, personnel and (subject to the execution of customary work paper access letters if requested) auditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and shall cause the personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries to cooperate as promptly as practicable with the Holder Representative in connection with its review of the Closing Balance Sheet; provided, however, that Newco shall not be required to provide any information the disclosure of which would violate applicable Law (including competition or antitrust Law) (provided, that Newco shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make alternative arrangements to permit such disclosure in a manner consistent
A-26

with applicable Law) or which would, based on the advice of counsel, result in the waiver of attorney client privilege (provided, that Newco and the Holder Representative shall cooperate to permit such disclosure in a manner consistent with the preservation of such privilege).
(b) If the Holder Representative shall disagree with the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash or Closing Transaction Expenses set forth in the Closing Statement, it shall notify Newco of such disagreement in writing (a “Disagreement Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement. In the event that the Holder Representative does not provide a notice of disagreement within such thirty (30)-day period, the Holder Representative and Newco shall be deemed to have agreed to the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses set forth in the Closing Statement, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any Disagreement Notice is timely provided, Newco and the Holder Representative shall use reasonable best efforts for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash or Closing Transaction Expenses. If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such disagreements, then any such remaining disagreements shall be resolved by Ernst & Young LLP or such other independent accounting or financial consulting firm of recognized national standing as may be mutually selected by Newco and the Holder Representative (such firm, subject to the following proviso, the “Accounting Referee”). Each of Newco and the Holder Representative shall promptly provide their respective assertions regarding Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses and, to the extent relevant thereto, the Final Closing Balance Sheet in writing to the Accounting Referee and to each other; provided, that no party shall disclose to the Accounting Referee any settlement discussions (or the contents thereof) between the parties without the prior consent of the other party. The Accounting Referee shall be instructed to render its determination with respect to such disagreements as soon as reasonably possible (which the parties hereto agree should not be later than thirty (30) days following the day on which the disagreement is referred to the Accounting Referee). The Accounting Referee shall base its determination solely on (i) the written submissions of the parties and shall not conduct an independent investigation and (ii) the extent (if any) to which Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash or Closing Transaction Expenses require adjustment (only with respect to the remaining disagreements submitted to the Accounting Referee) in order to be determined in accordance with Section 3.4(a) (including the definitions of the defined terms used in Section 3.4(a)), and the parties shall instruct the Accounting Referee to make all determinations in accordance with the Accounting Principles, notwithstanding the availability of other accounting methods, policies, practices and/or procedures under GAAP or otherwise. The Accounting Referee may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for a disputed item claimed by either party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The determination of the Accounting Referee shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The date on which Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses are finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.4(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.” All fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Accounting Referee hereunder shall be borne pro rata as between Newco, on the one hand, and the Holder Representative from the Holder Representative Expense Amount, on the other hand, in proportion to the allocation of the dollar value of the amounts in dispute as between Newco and the Holder Representative (as set forth in the written submissions to the Accounting Referee) made by the Accounting Referee such that the party prevailing on the greater dollar value of such disputes pays the lesser proportion of the fees and expenses. For example, if the Holder Representative challenges items underlying the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses in the net amount of  $1,000,000, and the Accounting Referee determines that Newco has a valid claim for $400,000 of the $1,000,000, Newco shall bear sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee and the Holder Representative shall bear the remaining forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee from the Holder Representative Expense Amount.

The Adjustment Amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.4(d) or Section 3.4(e), as applicable.
(d) If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then, promptly following the Determination Date, and in any event within three (3) Business Days of the Determination Date, (i) Newco shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds (x) to the Exchange Agent (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Fully-Diluted Percentage in respect of its shares of Company Stock) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Amount, multiplied by (B) the sum of all Pre-Closing Holders’ Fully-Diluted Percentages in respect of the shares of Company Stock held by all Pre-Closing Holders, (y) to the Surviving Corporation (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Option Pro-Rata Share) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Amount, multiplied by (B) the sum of all Pre-Closing Holders’ Option Pro-Rata Shares multiplied by (C) the US Escrow Percentage, and (z) to the UK Rollover Investors an amount in cash equal to the UK Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Amount (to be allocated among the UK Rollover Investors in accordance with the UK Share Purchase Agreement); and (ii) the parties shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay (x) to the Exchange Agent (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of the shares of Company Stock held by such Pre-Closing Holder immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Escrow Amount, multiplied by (B) the Aggregate Stock Escrow Percentage, (y) to the Surviving Corporation (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of the Vested Options held by such Pre-Closing Holder immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Escrow Amount, multiplied by (B) the Aggregate Option Escrow Percentage and (z) to the UK Rollover Investors an amount in cash equal to the UK Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Escrow Amount (to be allocated among the UK Rollover Investors in accordance with the UK Share Purchase Agreement).
(e) If the Adjustment Amount is a negative number (the absolute value of such amount, the “Deficit Amount”), then, promptly following the Determination Date, and in any event within three (3) Business Days of the Determination Date, (i) the parties shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay, from the Adjustment Escrow Amount to Newco an amount equal to the Deficit Amount, and (y) if any of the Escrow Funds remain after such payment to Newco, (I) to the Exchange Agent (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of the shares of Company Stock held by such Pre-Closing Holder immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the remaining Adjustment Escrow Amount, multiplied by (B) the Aggregate Stock Escrow Percentage, and (II) to the Surviving Corporation (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of the Vested Options held by such Pre-Closing Holder immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the remaining Adjustment Escrow Amount, multiplied by (B) the Aggregate Option Escrow Percentage and (III) to the UK Rollover Investors an amount in cash equal to the UK Escrow Percentage of the remaining Adjustment Escrow Amount (to be allocated among the UK Rollover Investors in accordance with the UK Share Purchase Agreement).
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any distributions by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any Vested Options pursuant to this Agreement, including pursuant to Section 3.4(d) or this Section 3.4(f) to Pre-Closing Holders who are current or former employees of the Company or its

Subsidiaries shall be subject to Section 3.8 below. In no event shall the Holder Representative or any Pre-Closing Holder have any liability under this Section 3.4 in excess of such holder’s allocable share of the Escrow Funds. In no event shall Newco be entitled to payment pursuant to this Section 3.4(f) of any amount in excess of the Escrow Funds.
3.5 Holder Representative Expense Amount.   On the Closing Date, Newco shall pay to the Holder Representative the Holder Representative Expense Amount or to such other persons (and in such amounts) as may be designated by the Holder Representative, by wire transfer to an account or accounts designated by the Holder Representative in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, in immediately available funds. Whether or not paid on or prior to the Closing Date, no amount shall be included on the Closing Balance Sheet with respect to liabilities for the Holder Representative Expense Amount. The Holder Representative shall retain the Holder Representative Expenses Amount for the purpose of paying any fees, costs, expenses and Taxes incurred, or that may in the future be incurred, by the Holder Representative in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and each of the documents to be executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that (i) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have failed to establish such holder’s entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in Section 262 of the DGCL, or (ii) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment for such holder’s shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and each such share shall not constitute a Dissenting Share and shall be treated as if it had been a Common Share or Preferred Share (as applicable) immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time and converted, as of the Concrete Effective Time, into a right to receive from the Surviving Corporation the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III, without any interest thereon (and such holder shall be treated as a Pre-Closing Holder).

Without the prior written consent of Newco (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company shall not voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for payment. From and after the Concrete Effective Time, no stockholder of the Company who has properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall be entitled to vote his or her shares of Company Stock for any purpose or receive payment of dividends or other distributions with respect to his or her shares of Company Stock (except dividends and distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the Concrete Effective Time).

To the extent that amounts are so withheld, and duly and timely deposited with the appropriate Governmental Authority, by Newco, the Company, the Holder Representative, the Exchange Agent or the Escrow Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(b) Without in any way limiting the effect of the provisions in the Expense Reimbursement Letter, at the Industrea Effective Time, by virtue of the Industrea Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Industrea Stock, (i) each share of Industrea Stock (a “Industrea Share”) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Industrea Effective Time (other than Industrea Cancelled Shares and shares of Industrea Stock redeemed for cash under the terms of Industrea’s certificate of incorporation) shall thereupon be canceled and converted into and become the right to receive one Newco Common Share as follows: each share of Industrea Class A Common Stock will be exchanged into one share of Newco Common Stock and each share of Industrea Class B Common Stock will also be exchanged into one share of Newco Common Stock and (ii) all shares of Newco capital stock held by Industrea as of immediately prior to the Industrea Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and retired for no consideration.

(d) At and as of the Industrea Effective Time, in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement, each issued and outstanding Warrant will become exercisable for one share of Newco Common Stock at the same exercise price per share and on the same terms in effect immediately prior to the Industrea Effective Time, and the rights and obligations of Industrea under the Warrant Agreement will be assigned and assumed by Newco, pursuant to the terms of a customary assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company.
(e) Exchange Procedure.   
(i) Prior to Closing, Newco, Industrea and the Exchange Agent shall enter into an exchange agent agreement, in a form reasonable acceptable to Newco and Industrea.

A-30

Industrea Stock represented thereby or otherwise held by such Industrea Stockholder. After the Industrea Effective Time, each Industrea Stockholder, upon surrender of an Industrea Merger Letter of Transmittal, shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent in exchange therefor such number and type of Newco Common Shares as described in the Industrea Closing Exchange Schedule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, prior to the Closing Date, an Industrea Stockholder delivers an Industrea Merger Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, such Industrea Stockholder shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent in exchange therefor at the Closing such Newco Common Shares as described in the immediately preceding sentence. In the event that any Industrea Stockholder’s shares of Industrea Stock are certificated, such Industrea Stockholder shall be required to surrender and deliver to the Exchange Agent all Industrea Certificates, or a duly completed affidavit of loss (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Newco) with respect to any lost, stolen, or destroyed Industrea Certificate, together with such Industrea Stockholder’s Industrea Merger Letter of Transmittal, before such Industrea Stockholder shall be entitled to receive payment of its applicable portion of the Newco Common Shares pursuant to this Section 3.9(e)(ii). Pending such surrender of an Industrea Stockholder’s Industrea Certificate(s), such Industrea Certificate(s) shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence such Industrea Stockholder’s right to receive the Newco Common Shares into which such shares of Industrea Stock shall have been converted as a result of the Industrea Merger.
(f) From and after the Industrea Effective Time, (i) Industrea Stockholders shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of Industrea and (ii) the consideration paid pursuant to this Section 3.9 upon the delivery of the Industrea Merger Letters of Transmittal (and surrender of Industrea Certificates, if any) in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Industrea Stock, subject to the continuing rights of Industrea Stockholders under this Agreement. At the Industrea Effective Time, the transfer books of Industrea shall be closed and no transfer of shares of Industrea Stock shall be made thereafter.

ARTICLE VII.
COVENANTS OF THE INDUSTREA PARTIES
7.1 HSR Act.
(a) In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Industrea shall (and, to the extent required, shall cause its Affiliates to) (i) comply promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the date hereof, with the notification and reporting requirements of the HSR Act and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and (ii) as soon as practicable, make such other filings or start pre-notification proceedings with any foreign Governmental Authorities as may be required under any applicable similar foreign Law. Industrea shall use its reasonable best efforts to substantially comply with any Antitrust Information or Document Requests made of Industrea or any of its Affiliates.
(b) Industrea shall exercise its reasonable best efforts to (i) obtain termination or expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act and such other approvals, consents and clearances as may be necessary, proper or advisable under any foreign antitrust or competition laws, in each case, as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the Termination Date), (ii) furnish to the Company all information reasonably required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any Law in
A-59

connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, to the extent permitted by Law, responding to any reasonable requests for copies of documents filed with Industrea’s prior filings), and (iii) otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with any filing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of any Governmental Authority. In connection therewith, if any Action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as in violation of the HSR Act, any antitrust or applicable foreign competition Law, Industrea shall use its reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such Action, including to prevent the entry in any Action brought by an Antitrust Authority or any other Person of any Governmental Order which would prohibit, make unlawful or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and initiate and exhaust all appeals, and post bonds in connection therewith) necessary to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the Termination Date) any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, limits or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, unless, by mutual agreement, Industrea and the Company decide that litigation is not in their respective best interests. Industrea shall not, without the written consent of the Company, “pull-and-refile” pursuant to 16 C.F.R. 803.12 any filing made under the HSR Act, or take any similar action without prior written approval from the Company with respect to any filing made with any Antitrust Authority.
(c) Industrea shall promptly furnish to the Company and the Holder Representative copies of any notices or written communications received or given by Industrea or any of its Affiliates from or to any third party or any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Industrea shall permit counsel to the Company an opportunity to review in advance, and Industrea shall consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by Industrea and its Affiliates to any third party or any Governmental Authority concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Industrea agrees to provide the Company, the Holder Representative and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between Industrea and any of its Affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any third party or any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(d) Industrea shall be solely responsible for and pay all fees payable to the Antitrust Authorities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party shall bear its own legal or advisor fees in connection with any filings, Actions or litigation under this Section 7.1.
7.2 Indemnification and Insurance.
(a) From and after the Concrete Effective Time, Newco agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, officer and employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any Action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Concrete Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Concrete Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, would have been permitted under applicable Law and its respective certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such person (including promptly advancing expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Without limiting the foregoing, Newco shall cause the Company and each of its Subsidiaries for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Concrete Effective Time (i) to maintain provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors and employees that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational
A-60

documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement, and (ii) not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.
(b) The Company, at its sole cost and expense (which, to the extent unpaid as of the Closing, shall be deemed a Transaction Expense), shall cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies by obtaining at or prior to the Closing a prepaid, non-cancelable six-year “tail” policy containing terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Concrete Effective Time. The aggregate amount actually paid to purchase such “tail” coverage shall be referred to as the “D&O Tail Premium”.
(c) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 7.2 (an “Indemnified Person”) may at any time be entitled. No right or remedy herein conferred by this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent assertion of any other right or remedy. Newco hereby acknowledges that the Indemnified Persons have or may, in the future, have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by other Persons (collectively, “Other Indemnitors”). Newco hereby agrees that, with respect to any advancement or indemnification obligation owed, at any time from and after the Closing, to an Indemnified Person by Newco, the Concrete Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or any Other Indemnitor, whether pursuant to any certificate of incorporation, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, indemnification agreement or other document or agreement or pursuant to this Section 7.2, and Newco, the Concrete Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall be at all times the indemnitors of first resort (i.e., Newco’s, the Concrete Surviving Corporation’s and its Subsidiaries’ obligations to an Indemnified Person shall be primary and any obligation of the Other Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by an Indemnified Person shall be secondary).
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.2 shall survive the consummation of the Concrete Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Newco and the Concrete Surviving Corporation. In the event that Newco or the Concrete Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Newco or the Concrete Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.2.
(e) Newco shall assume, and be jointly and severally liable with the Company and its Subsidiaries for, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to honor, each of the covenants in this Section 7.2.
7.3 Employment Matters.
(a) For a period of no less than one (1) year following the Closing Date, Newco shall, or shall cause the Concrete Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to, provide to each employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries who continues in employment with the Concrete Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries following the Closing Date (the “Continuing Employees”) with (i) at least the same base salary or wage rate, as applicable, and annual cash incentive opportunity (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, equity compensation, phantom equity compensation, and retention or transaction bonuses), if any, as those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) provide other employee benefits (including tax-qualified retirement, health, welfare and severance, but excluding equity compensation, phantom equity compensation, and retention or transaction bonuses) which are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than those provided to the Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing.
A-61

(b) For purposes of determining eligibility, vesting, participation and benefit accrual (other than for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension, retiree health or welfare, deferred compensation or supplemental retirement plan) under Newco’s and its Subsidiaries’ plans and programs providing employee benefits to Continuing Employees after the Closing Date (the “Industrea Benefit Plans”). Newco shall (or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to) credit each Continuing Employee with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries (and their predecessors) prior to the Closing Date to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was (or would have been) entitled, before the Closing Date, to credit for such service under Company Benefit Plans, except to the extent providing such credit would result in any duplication of benefits. In addition, Newco shall (or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) each Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all Industrea Benefit Plans, (ii) each Industrea Benefit Plan providing medical, dental, hospital, pharmaceutical or vision benefits, all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Industrea Benefit Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents (except to the extent that such exclusions or requirements applied to the Continuing Employee under comparable Company Benefit Plans), and (iii) any co-payments, deductibles and other eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and/or his or her covered dependents during the plan year ending on the Closing Date to be credited for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year of each comparable Industrea Benefit Plan (to the extent such credit would have been given under comparable Company Benefit Plans prior to the Closing).
(c) This Section 7.3 is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and shall not, and shall not be construed so as to, (i) create any third-party right in any Person, including any Continuing Employee, (ii) confer upon any Person the right to employment or continued employment for any period of time, or any right to any particular term or condition of employment, (iii) constitute an amendment or modification of any employee benefit plan, or (iv) obligate Newco, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to adopt or maintain any compensatory or benefits plan, agreement arrangement or prevent Newco, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries from modifying or terminating any such plan, program or other arrangement.
7.4 Financing Efforts.
(a) The Industrea Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to arrange the Debt Financing as promptly as practicable following the date hereof and to consummate the Debt Financing on the Closing Date. Such actions shall include, but not be limited to, the following: (i) maintaining in effect the Debt Commitment Letters; (ii) causing the Argand Equity Investment to be consummated upon satisfaction of the Financing Conditions contained in the Argand Subscription Agreement; (iii) satisfying on a timely basis all Financing Conditions; (iv) negotiating, executing and delivering definitive agreements and other documentation (“Debt Financing Documents”) that reflect the terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letters (including any “market flex” provisions related thereto); (v) enforcing its rights under the Debt Commitment Letters in the event of a Financing Failure Event and (vi) in the event that the conditions set forth in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 and the Financing Conditions have been satisfied or, upon funding would be satisfied, cause the financing providers to fund the full amount of the Financing. Industrea shall give the Company prompt notice of any breach, repudiation, or threatened or anticipated breach or repudiation, by any party to a Debt Commitment Letter of which Industrea or its Affiliates becomes aware. Without limiting the Industrea Parties’ other obligations under this Section 7.4, if a Financing Failure Event occurs the Industrea Parties shall (x) promptly notify the Company of such Financing Failure Event and the reasons therefor, (y) in consultation with the Company, obtain alternative financing from alternative financing sources, in an amount sufficient to make the Closing Date Payments and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, and (z) obtain, and when obtained, provide the Company with a copy of, a new financing commitment, subject only to the Financing Conditions, that provides for such alternative financing. Neither Industrea nor any of its Affiliates shall amend, modify, supplement, restate, assign, substitute or replace a Debt
A-62

Commitment Letter or any Debt Financing Document except for (a) substitutions and replacements pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence; or (b) if such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, assignment, substitution or replacement (i) does not contain additional conditions, modified conditions or other contingencies, in each case to the funding of the debt financing relative to those contained in Debt Commitment Letters for the debt financing as in effect on the date of this Agreement, (ii) or is otherwise not reasonably likely to (x) impair or materially delay the funding of the Debt Financing or (y) impair or materially delay the Closing and (iii) does not reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing as of the date of this Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby understood and agreed that the Industrea Parties may amend either Debt Commitment Letter to (A) add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed such Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof and provide such lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities with consent rights with respect to existing conditions to the consummation of the financings contemplated by such Debt Commitment Letter to the extent that the commitments in the aggregate of the lenders to provide the financings contemplated by such Debt Commitment Letter are not reduced as a result of any such amendment and (B) implement any “market flex” provisions contained in a Debt Commitment Letter. Upon any such amendment, supplement, modification or replacement of a Debt Commitment Letter or Debt Financing Document in accordance with this Section 7.4(a), the term “Debt Commitment Letter” shall include such “Debt Commitment Letter” as so amended, supplemented, modified or replaced. Upon the request of the Company, Industrea will confirm (a) with its Financing Sources their intent and ability to perform, and the availability of the Debt Financing, under the Debt Commitment Letters, subject only to satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Conditions, and (b) that neither it nor its Financing Sources are aware of any event or condition that could reasonably be expected to result in the failure of a Financing Condition. “Financing Failure Event” shall mean any of the following (A) the commitments with respect to all or any portion of the Financing expiring or being terminated, (B) for any reason, all or any portion of the Financing becoming unavailable, (C) a breach or repudiation, or threatened or anticipated breach or repudiation, by any party to a Debt Commitment Letter, or (D) it becoming reasonably foreseeable that any of the events set forth in clauses (A) through (C) shall occur, or (E) any party to a Debt Commitment Letter or any Affiliate or agent of such Person shall allege that any of the events set forth in clauses (A) through (C) has occurred.
(b) The Industrea Parties shall take all reasonable actions necessary to cause the Existing Notes Redemptions to occur substantially simultaneously with the Closing. The Industrea Parties shall provide all funds necessary to consummate the Existing Notes Redemptions at the Closing.
(c) The Industrea Parties shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, or any replacement of, any Subscription Agreement or Rollover Agreement without the consent of the Company if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Equity Financing or the Rollover, (ii) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the receipt of the Equity Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) delay or prevent the Closing, (y) materially impair or delay the funding of the Equity Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Equity Financing) or (z) adversely affect the ability of Newco to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Subscription Agreements, the Rollover Agreements or any of the definitive agreements with respect thereto or (iii) adds or changes in any material respect any economic or governance rights or benefits granted to any investor participating in the Equity Financing (including the Argand Investor). The Industrea Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the applicable Subscription Agreement on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect the Subscription Agreements and using its reasonable best efforts to (i) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to the Industrea Parties in the Subscription Agreements and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (ii) in the event that all conditions in the applicable Subscription Agreement (other than conditions that Newco or any of its Affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, consummate
A-63

transactions contemplated by the applicable Subscription Agreement at or prior to Closing and (iii) enforce their rights under the applicable Subscription Agreement in the event that all conditions in the applicable Subscription Agreement (other than conditions that Newco or any of its Affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, to cause, as applicable, (x) the Argand Investor to consummate the Argand Equity Investment at or prior to the Closing, and (y) the Third Party PIPE Investors to consummate the Third Party PIPE Investment at or prior to the Closing to be consummated at or prior to the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Industrea shall give the Company, prompt (and, in any event within three (3) Business Days) written notice: (A) of any amendment to any Subscription Agreement (together with a copy of such amendment), (B) of any known breach or default (or any known event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Subscription Agreement; (C) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Subscription Agreement with respect to any actual, potential or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Subscription Agreement or any provisions of any Subscription Agreement and (D) if the Industrea Parties do not expect to receive all or any portion of the Equity Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Subscription Agreements. The Subscription Agreement contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the investors party thereto to contribute to Newco the Equity Financing on the terms therein.
7.5 Retention of Books and Records.   Newco shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to retain all books, ledgers, files, reports, plans, operating records and any other material documents pertaining to the Company and its Subsidiaries in existence at the Closing that are required to be retained under current retention policies for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date, and to make the same available after the Closing for inspection and copying by the Holder Representative or its representatives at the Holder Representative’s expense, during regular business hours and upon reasonable request and upon reasonable advance notice. After such seven (7)-year or longer period, before Newco, the Concrete Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries may dispose of any such books and records, Newco shall give at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of such intention to dispose to the Holder Representative, and the Holder Representative shall be given an opportunity, at its cost and expense, to remove and retain all or any part of such books and records as it may elect.

7.7 Conduct of Business.
(a) From the date of this Agreement through the Closing, each of the Industrea Parties shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, except as set forth on Schedule 7.7, as contemplated by this Agreement or as consented to by the Holder Representative in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, delayed or denied), use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) operate its businesses in the ordinary course and substantially in accordance with past practice, (ii) preserve and protect its business organization and employment relationships, (iii) maintain its assets, properties, books of account and records consistent with its past practice, (iv) maintain its books and records consistent with its past custom and practice and (v) to not take any action or fail to take any action that would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article IX not being satisfied or that would otherwise be reasonably expected to prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any material respect.

7.9 Registration Statement; Industrea Stockholder Approval.
(a) As soon as practicable after the execution of this Agreement (provided, that the Company has provided to Industrea all of the information described in Section 7.9(d) hereof, including such financial statements and other information of the Company and its Subsidiaries to be delivered to Industrea by the Company or its auditors and required to be included in the Registration Statement), Industrea shall prepare and cause Newco to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 that will include
A-65

the proxy statement/prospectus to be sent to the stockholders of Industrea relating to Industrea Stockholders Meeting (such proxy statement/prospectus, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Registration Statement”) for the purpose of soliciting proxies from Industrea stockholders to vote at Industrea Stockholders Meeting in favor of  (i) the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the Newco Charter & Bylaws Amendment and (iii) all such other proposals the approval of which Industrea and the Company mutually deem necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Proposals”). In addition to the foregoing, Industrea shall prepare and cause Newco to file with the SEC the Registration Statement on or prior to September 11, 2018; provided, that Industrea’s obligation to prepare and cause Newco to file the Registration Statement on or prior to such date shall be specifically contingent upon the Company’s satisfaction of all Filing Requirements. Industrea shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. Industrea also agrees to use reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities law or “blue sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Company shall furnish all information concerning the Company, its Subsidiaries and any of their respective stockholders as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. Promptly after the SEC advises Industrea that the SEC staff has completed its review of the Registration Statement, Industrea shall set a record date (which date shall be mutually agreed with the Company) (the “Industrea Record Date”) for determining the stockholders of Industrea entitled to attend Industrea Stockholders Meeting. Industrea will cause the Registration Statement to be mailed to each stockholder who was a stockholder of Industrea as of Industrea Record Date promptly after the SEC advises Industrea that the SEC staff has completed its review of the Registration Statement. Promptly after the SEC advises Industrea that the SEC staff has completed its review of the Registration Statement, Industrea shall duly call, give notice of, convene and hold Industrea Stockholders Meeting for the purpose of obtaining Industrea Stockholder Approval, which meeting shall be held not more than 45 days after the date on which Industrea mails the Registration Statement to its stockholders.
(b) Industrea will advise the Company, promptly after Industrea receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement or any supplement or amendment has been filed or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement or for additional information. The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Registration Statement and any other document each time before any such document is filed with the SEC, and Industrea shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Company and its counsel. Industrea shall provide the Company and its counsel with (i) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that Industrea or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Registration Statement promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (ii) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response of Industrea to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given), including by participating in any discussions or meetings with the SEC.
(c) Each of the Company and Industrea shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to ensure that none of the information supplied by or on its behalf for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement will, at the date it is first mailed to the stockholders of Industrea and at the time of Industrea Stockholders Meeting contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. If at any time prior to the Closing any information relating to the Company, Industrea or any of their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors or officers is discovered by the Company or Industrea that is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the
A-66

other party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the stockholders of Industrea.
(d) The Company acknowledges that a substantial portion of the Registration Statement will include disclosure regarding the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders, and its business, management, operations and financial condition. Accordingly, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Industrea with such information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries that is required to be included in the Registration Statement or any other statement, filing, notice or application required to be made by or on behalf of Industrea to the SEC or NASDAQ in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(e) Industrea shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain Industrea Stockholder Approval, including by soliciting proxies as promptly as practicable in accordance with applicable Law for the purpose of seeking Industrea Stockholder Approval. Industrea shall, through Industrea board of directors, recommend to its stockholders that they vote in favor of the Transaction Proposals (the “Industrea Board Recommendation”) and Industrea shall include Industrea Board Recommendation in the Registration Statement. The board of directors of Industrea shall not (and no committee or subgroup thereof shall) change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, Industrea Board Recommendation (a “Change in Recommendation”); provided, that the Industrea board of directors may make a Change in Recommendation if it determines in good faith that a failure to do so would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.
(f) Industrea shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to enforce its rights under the Industrea Letter Agreement in furtherance of obtaining the Industrea Stockholder Approval and to cause Industrea Alexandria and the Industrea Insiders (including by maintaining in effect the Industrea Letter Agreement and seeking an order of specific performance or other equitable relief or other enforcement actions against Industrea Alexandria and the Industrea Insiders) to (a) vote all shares of Industrea Common Stock held by them in favor of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby and (b) not redeem any shares of Industrea Common Stock owned by any of them in connection with the Industrea Stockholder Approval.
7.10 Trust Account. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article IX and provision of notice thereof to the Trustee (which notice Industrea shall provide to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement), (a) in accordance with and pursuant to the Trust Agreement, at the Closing, Industrea (i) shall cause the documents, opinions and notices required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement to be so delivered and (ii) shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Trustee to, and the Trustee shall thereupon be obligated to (A) pay as and when due all amounts payable to stockholders holding shares of Industrea Class A Common Stock sold in Industrea’s initial public offering who shall have previously validly elected to redeem their shares of Industrea Class A Common Stock pursuant to Industrea certificate of incorporation, and (B) immediately thereafter, pay all remaining amounts then available in the Trust Account in accordance with this Agreement and the Trust Agreement and (b) thereafter, the Trust Account shall terminate, except as otherwise provided therein.
7.11 Exclusivity.   Until the first to occur of the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article X, Industrea will not, and will cause its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, consultants and other advisors and representatives not to, directly or indirectly: (a) solicit, initiate, encourage, knowingly facilitate any inquiry or the making of any proposal or offer, (b) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations, (c) furnish to any person any non-public information or grant any person access to its properties, assets, books, contracts, personnel or records, (d) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent, agreement in principal, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other contract, or (e) propose, whether publicly or to any director or stockholder, or agree to do any of the foregoing for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating any proposal, offer, discussions or negotiations; in each case relating to an Industrea Acquisition Proposal. “Industrea Acquisition Proposal

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 7.11 shall not apply to any transaction that does not involve (directly or indirectly) Industrea and its subsidiaries, including any transaction solely involving Argand Partners L.P. or its other Affiliates (including any portfolio companies) (the “Argand Parties”) or any activities by such Argand Parties in furtherance thereof. Industrea will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any such negotiations, discussion or other communication, or contracts (to the extent unilaterally terminable by Industrea without the counterparty’s consent and without penalty) (other than with the Company) with respect to the foregoing.
ARTICLE VIII.
JOINT COVENANTS
8.1 Support of Transaction.   Without limiting any covenant contained in Article VI or Article VII, Industrea and the Company shall each, and shall each cause their respective Subsidiaries to: (a) use reasonable best efforts to assemble, prepare and file any information (and, as needed, to supplement such information) as may be reasonably necessary to obtain as promptly as practicable all governmental and regulatory consents required to be obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) use reasonable best efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third parties that any of Industrea, the Company or their respective Affiliates are required to obtain in order to consummate the Mergers, and (c) take such other action as may reasonably be necessary or as another party may reasonably request to satisfy the conditions of Article IX or otherwise to comply with this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the Termination Date).

8.4 [Reserved.]
8.5 Section 280G.   Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use reasonable endeavors to obtain from each “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries who may receive payments and/or benefits that could constitute “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement a waiver of any such payments or benefits, such that after giving effect to all waivers, the Company, its Subsidiaries, and, if applicable, Industrea shall not have made or provided, nor shall be required to make or provide, any payments or benefits that would not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code or that would be subject to an excise Tax under Section 4999 of the Code (the waived payments and benefits waived shall be collectively referred to as the “Section 280G Waived Payments”). On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to submit, accompanied by adequate disclosure, for equityholder approval all Section 280G Waived Payments in accordance with the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations thereunder. If equityholder approval is obtained, the Company shall promptly, but in all events prior to the Closing, deliver to Industrea evidence reasonably satisfactory to Industrea of such approval. Prior to the Closing Date and prior to
A-68

solicitation of equityholder approval, the Company shall provide Industrea with (i) drafts of any waivers and equityholder disclosure documents relating to the waiver and vote prepared by the Company in connection with this Section 8.5; and (ii) reasonable documentation regarding the determination of the Section 280G Waived Payments. The Company shall consider in good faith any comments made by Industrea prior to obtaining the waivers and soliciting the vote.
8.6 Tax Matters.
(a) Newco agrees that (i) Newco and Concrete Parent will file a consolidated federal income Tax Return with the Company and its applicable Subsidiaries starting on the day following the Closing Date, causing the taxable year of the Company and its applicable Subsidiaries to end on the Closing Date for federal income tax purposes, (ii) any gains, income, deductions, losses or other items resulting from any transactions outside the ordinary course of business occurring on the Closing Date, but after the Closing, shall not be treated as occurring on the Closing Date and Newco and the Company shall utilize (and cause their Affiliates to utilize) the “next day rule” in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of foreign, state or local Law) for purposes of reporting such items on the applicable Tax Returns, (iii) no election will be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) (or any other similar provision of foreign, state or local Law) for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to ratably allocate items in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iv) no election will be made under Section 336 of the Code or Section 338 of the Code with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(b) Tax Returns.
(i) The Company, at its sole cost and expense, shall (A) prepare and timely file all Tax Returns of the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company due (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) on or prior to the Closing Date (“Company Prepared Returns”) and (B) timely pay all Taxes that are due and payable (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to the Company Prepared Returns. Unless otherwise required by Law, all Company Prepared Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with existing practices and accounting methods of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(ii) Newco shall cause the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company to prepare and timely file all Tax Returns of the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company due after the Closing Date (the “Newco Prepared Returns”). To the extent that a Newco Prepared Return relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with existing practices and accounting methods of the Company and its Subsidiaries, unless otherwise required by Law. To the extent a Newco Prepared Return relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, at least twenty (20) days before filing any Newco Prepared Return, Newco shall deliver a draft copy of such Newco Prepared Return to the Holder Representative for the Holder Representative’s review, comment and approval. Newco shall cause any comments provided in writing within ten (10) days of receipt of such Newco Prepared Return by the Holder Representative to be reflected in such Newco Prepared Return, to the extent consistent with existing practices and accounting methods of the Company and its Subsidiaries and with applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, any Tax deductions arising out of fees, expenses and bonuses paid or accrued by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Affiliated Group of which the Company is a member (including any Tax deductions with respect to the Option Consideration or otherwise with respect to the Vested Options) shall be treated as accruing on or before the Closing Date and reported on a Tax Return of the Company (or the Affiliated Group of which the Company is the common parent) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.6(b), no Company Prepared Return or Newco Prepared Return shall include an election under Section 965(h) or Section 965(n) of the Code.
(c) Apportionment of Taxes.   For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes that are attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of any Straddle Period ending on or prior to the Closing Date) the parties agree as follows:
A-69

(i) In the case of property Taxes and other similar Taxes imposed on a periodic basis for a Straddle Period, the amounts that are attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined by multiplying the Taxes for the entire Straddle Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period; provided, that in the case of any such Taxes that are imposed in arrears, the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period shall be based on the amount of such Taxes that were actually imposed for the immediately preceding period.
(ii) In the case of Taxes in the form of interest or penalties, all such Taxes shall be (x) treated as attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date) if and to the extent that such interest or penalties relate to a Company Prepared Return or otherwise to a breach of this Agreement by the Holder Representative or (prior to the Closing) by the Company and (y) treated as attributable to a Post-Closing Tax Period (or the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date) if and to the extent that such interest or penalties relate to a Newco Prepared Return or otherwise to a breach of this Agreement by Newco or its Affiliates (including Industrea, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub or (after the Closing) the Company and its Subsidiaries).
(iii) In the case of Taxes (other than Taxes imposed under Section 965 of the Code) imposed on the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or on Newco or any Affiliate of Newco, in each case, as a result of income from any Flow-Thru Entity directly or indirectly owned by the Company that is realized by the Flow-Thru Entity prior to the Closing Date (such income being computed assuming the Flow-Thru Entity had a year that ends on the Closing Date and closed its books), such Taxes shall be treated as Taxes of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period.
(iv) In the case of all other Taxes for a Straddle Period (including Income Taxes, employment Taxes, and sales and use Taxes) the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books methodology.” For purposes of clause (ii), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions and the effects of graduated rates) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date based on the mechanics set forth in clause (i) for periodic Taxes.
(d) Tax Contests.   Newco shall promptly notify the Holder Representative of any audit, assessment, investigation or other proceeding relating to Taxes of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (a “Tax Contest”). The Holder Representative shall be entitled to control the conduct of any such Tax Contest; provided, however, that Newco, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Contest, and the Holder Representative shall not resolve any such Tax Contest without Newco’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Newco shall be entitled to control the conduct of any other Tax Contest.
(e) Cooperation.   To the extent reasonably requested in writing (and at the requesting party’s expense), and subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.6, Newco, the Company and the Holder Representative shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, (i) assist in the preparation and timely filing of any Tax Return of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) assist in any audit or other legal proceeding with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (whether or not a Tax Contest), (iii) make available any information, records, or other documents reasonably relating to any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Pre-Closing Holders, the Holder Representative, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (except to the extent such information, records or other documents are reasonably deemed to be confidential or privileged), (iv) provide any information reasonably necessary or reasonably requested to allow the Pre-Closing Holders, the Holder Representative, Newco, the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company to
A-70

comply with any information reporting or withholding requirements contained in the Code or other applicable Laws or to compute the amount of payroll or other employment Taxes due with respect to any payment made in connection with this Agreement.
(f) Transfer Taxes.   All federal, state, local, non-U.S. transfer, excise, sales, use, ad valorem value added, registration, stamp, recording, property and similar Taxes or fees applicable to, imposed upon, or arising out of the transfer of the shares in the Company pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid one-half by Newco, Concrete Parent and Industrea, on the one hand, and one-half by the Pre-Closing Holders (solely through a claim for indemnification pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of  “Indemnified Taxes”), on the other hand. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to the extent reasonably requested to mitigate the amount of any such Transfer Taxes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.
(g) Tax Refunds.   Any Tax refund, credit or similar benefit (including any interest paid or credited by a Governmental Authority with respect thereto) relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date (a “Tax Refund”) shall be for the sole benefit of the Pre-Closing Holders. To the extent that Newco or any of its Affiliates (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) receives or utilizes any Tax Refund, within ten (10) days of receipt of such Tax Refund or the filing of any Tax Return utilizing such Tax Refund (in the form of a credit or offset to Taxes otherwise payable), as the case may be, (x) Newco shall promptly pay or cause its applicable Subsidiaries to pay, through payroll to each Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options, subject to any applicable withholding, an amount equal to the product of  (A) the amount of such Tax Refund net of any incremental Taxes payable by the Company or any Subsidiary as a result of the receipt thereof and net of any other expenses that Newco, the Company, or any Subsidiary or any of their Affiliates incur (or has or will incur) with respect to such Tax Refund (and related interest), and (B) such Pre-Closing Holder’s Option Pro-Rata Share over the sum of all Pre-Closing Holders’ Option Pro-Rata Shares, provided, that to the extent any amounts under this clause (x) would be payable after the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing, no Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options shall have any legally binding right to such amounts and the Company shall have the sole discretion to determine whether to pay any such amounts to any Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options and the time(s) and terms and conditions of any such payments, and (y) Newco shall pay or cause to be paid to the Exchange Agent (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Fully-Diluted Percentage in respect of its shares of Company Stock) the excess of  (i) the amount described in the foregoing clause (x)(A), less (ii) the aggregate amount payable to Pre-Closing Holders of Vested Options pursuant to clause (x) above (disregarding any reduction of the amount payable to Pre-Closing Holders of Vested Options resulting from the operation of the proviso to such clause). The parties hereto agree that Tax Refunds for any taxable period beginning on or before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date shall be allocated using the methodologies set forth in Section 8.6(c). Newco and its Affiliates shall, and shall cause the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, promptly take all actions (including those actions reasonably requested by the Holder Representative) to file for and obtain any Tax Refund. Newco shall, upon request, permit the Holder Representative to participate in the prosecution of any proceedings relating to a Tax Refund claim and shall not settle or otherwise resolve any such proceeding without the prior written consent of the Holder Representative. Nothing in this Section 8.6(g) shall require that Newco make any payment with respect to any refund for a Tax (and such refunds shall be for the benefit of Newco, the Company, and its Subsidiaries) to the extent it is (i) a refund of Tax that is the result of the carrying back of any net operating loss or other Tax attribute or Tax credit incurred in a Post-Closing Tax Period (or portion of any Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date), (ii) any refund for Tax that is reflected as a Current Asset (or offset to a Current Liability) in the Net Working Capital, as finally determined, or (iii) any refund for Tax that gives rise to a corresponding dollar-for-dollar payment obligation by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to any Person under applicable Law or pursuant to a provision of a contract or other agreement entered (or assumed) by the Company (or any Subsidiary of the Company) on or prior to the Closing Date, but only if such payment obligation is not indemnifiable under this Agreement and was not reflected as a Current Liability (or offset to a Current Asset) in Net Working Capital, as finally determined.
A-71

(h) At or prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Concrete Parent a certificate substantially in the form of Annex H; provided, that Newco’s and Concrete Parent’s sole remedy if the Company fails to deliver such certificate shall be to make an appropriate withholding of Tax to the extent required pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code (and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder).
(i) Following the Closing, except as required by law, Newco shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub and (after the Closing) the Company and its Subsidiaries) not to, (i) make any Tax election that would have a retroactive effective to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period beginning on or before the Closing Date, (ii) amend any Tax Return relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period beginning on or before the Closing Date, (iii) take any action outside the ordinary course of business that would increase the Tax liability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or the Pre-Closing Holders) with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period beginning on or before the Closing Date or (iv) make any voluntary Tax disclosure, Tax amnesty filing or other similar filing relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date.
(j) Tax Treatment.   For U.S. federal and applicable state income Tax purposes, the parties agree that the Rollover, taken together with the Industrea Merger, the Argand Equity Investment, the Third Party PIPE Investment, the UK Rollover Investment and any other relevant contributions to Newco, is intended to be a contribution of property qualifying under Section 351 of the Code. The parties further agree to file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing, to the greatest extent permitted by applicable Law, and not to knowingly take any actions that would cause the Rollover not to so qualify. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from the date hereof through and including the end of the taxable year in which the Closing occurs, Industrea shall not, and Newco shall cause Industrea not to, convert, liquidate, dissolve, wind up or take any similar action.
8.7 Confidentiality.   Industrea and the Company shall comply with, and shall cause of their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, consultants and other advisors and representatives (its “Restricted Persons”) to comply with the terms of that certain Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of April 17, 2018, between Industrea and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) which Industrea and the Company acknowledge remains in full force and effect and that all confidential information disclosed to Industrea or its Restricted Persons is and shall continue to be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. Beginning on the date of this Agreement until the termination of this agreement in accordance with Article X, neither the Company nor any Restricted Person will waive any right under any other nondisclosure agreement previously entered into by the Company and any other Person with respect to the evaluation of the sale of the Company without the prior written consent of Industrea. The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms set forth therein. In the event of the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Industrea shall comply with the terms and provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, including returning or destroying all Evaluation Material (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement.
8.8 Notification of Certain Matters.   Prior to the Closing, Industrea, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall reasonably promptly notify each other in writing of  (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact or condition that would cause any condition set forth in Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, as applicable, to not be satisfied, (ii) any material Actions in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement commenced or, to the knowledge of Industrea or to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against Industrea, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, or (iii) any written notice or other written material communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that a party’s good-faith failure to comply with this Section 8.8 shall not provide the other party the right not to consummate the Closing or to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(i) (A) there is any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Industrea Parties set forth in this Agreement, such that the conditions specified in Section 9.3(a) or Section 9.3(b) would not be satisfied at the Closing (a “Terminating Industrea Breach”), except that, if any such Terminating Industrea Breach is curable by Industrea through the exercise of its reasonable best efforts, then, for a period of up to thirty (30) days after receipt by Industrea of notice from the Company of such breach, but only as long as Industrea continues to exercise such reasonable best efforts to cure such Terminating Industrea Breach (the “Industrea Cure Period”), such termination shall not be effective and the Termination Date shall automatically be extended until the end of Industrea Cure Period, and such termination shall become effective only if the Terminating Industrea Breach is not cured within Industrea Cure Period; provided, however, this Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this Section 10.1(c)(i)(A) if, as of such time, the Company is in material breach of any of its covenants or other obligations hereunder, or (B) (1) all of the conditions set forth in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) as of the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3, and (2) Industrea Parties have failed to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement within three (3) Business Days following the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3;
(ii) the Closing has not occurred on or before the Termination Date (subject to Sections 10.1(c)(i) and 13.14, unless the Company’s willful breach is the primary reason for the Closing not occurring on or before such date;
(iii) the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby is permanently enjoined or prohibited by the terms of a final, non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction unless the Company’s willful breach is the primary reason for such injunction or prohibition;
(iv) at any time prior to the receipt of Industrea Stockholder Approval, if the board of directors of Industrea shall have (i) failed to recommend to its stockholders that Industrea Stockholder Approval be given or failed to include Industrea Board Recommendation in the Registration Statement, or (ii) effected a Change in Recommendation; or
(v) if Industrea Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained at Industrea Stockholders Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, in each case at which a vote on such approval was taken.
10.2 Effect of Termination.
(a) Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.2, in the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of any party hereto or its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or stockholders, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence and other than liability of
A-75

the Company, Industrea Parties, as the case may be, for any willful and material breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination. The provisions of Sections 10.2, Article XI and Article XIII, and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI.
HOLDER REPRESENTATIVE
11.1 Designation and Replacement of Holder Representative.   The parties have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of holders of the Company Stock and the Options for certain limited purposes, as specified herein (the “Holder Representative”). The parties have designated PGP Investors, LLC as the initial Holder Representative, and approval of this Agreement by the holders of Company Stock shall constitute ratification and approval of such designation. The Holder Representative may resign at any time, and the Holder Representative may be removed by the vote of Persons which collectively owned more than fifty percent (50%) of the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Shares immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time (or, in the case of a termination of this Agreement, as of such termination) (the “Majority Holders”). In the event that a Holder Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Holder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Holder Representative. The designation of any Person as the Holder Representative is and shall be coupled with an interest, and, except as set forth in this Article XI, such designation is irrevocable and shall not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, bankruptcy, dissolution or other inability to act of any of the holders of Company Stock or any of the holders of Options.
11.2 Authority and Rights of the Holder Representative; Limitations on Liability.   The Holder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Holder Representative shall have no obligation to act, except as expressly provided herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Holder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to (i) estimate and determine the Holder Representative Expense Amount and to pay the Holder Representative Expense Amount in accordance with Section 3.5, (ii) retain counsel and to incur such fees, costs and expenses as the Holder Representative deems to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and each of the documents to be executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) after the Closing, negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement for and on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders and (iv) with respect to any claims for indemnification made pursuant to Section 12.2, exercise all rights granted to the Holder Representative under Article XII. All actions taken by the Holder Representative under this Agreement shall be binding upon the Pre-Closing Holders and their successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by each of them. The Holder Representative shall have no liability to Industrea Parties, the Company or any holder of Company Stock or Options with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Holder Representative. The Holder Representative shall at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders; provided, however, that the Holder Representative shall not be required to follow any such direction, and shall be under no obligation to take any action in its capacity as the Holder Representative, unless the Holder Representative is holding funds delivered to it under Section 3.5 and has been provided with other funds, security or indemnities which, in the sole determination of the Holder Representative, are sufficient to protect the Holder Representative against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by the Holder Representative in responding to such direction or taking such action. The Holder Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its
A-76

function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Holder Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Holder Representative shall be entitled to reimbursement from funds paid to it under Section 3.5, released from the Escrow Funds for the benefit of Pre-Closing Holders or otherwise received by it in its capacity as the Holder Representative pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement, for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Holder Representative in such capacity, and shall be entitled to indemnification against any loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Holder Representative (except for those arising out of the Holder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims. In the event that the Holder Representative determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the funds paid to the Holder Representative pursuant to Section 3.5 exceed the aggregate amount of fees, costs, expenses and Taxes incurred, or that may in the future be incurred, by the Holder Representative in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and each of the documents to be executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, prior to the final release of the Escrow Funds, the Holder Representative shall transfer such excess amount to the Escrow Agent solely for disbursement (or otherwise cause such excess amount to be disbursed) to the Pre-Closing Holders as Merger Consideration; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, in no event shall such excess amount become part of the Escrow Funds or otherwise become payable to Industrea Parties. The Industrea Parties shall be able to rely conclusively on the instructions and decisions of the Holder Representative as to the settlement of any claims for indemnification of Industrea Parties pursuant to the Escrow Agreement or Article XII below or any other actions, consents, approvals, agreements and decisions required or permitted to be taken, given or made by the Holder Representative hereunder, and no Pre-Closing Holder shall have any cause of action against Industrea Parties to the extent that Industrea Parties has relied upon the instructions or decisions of the Holder Representative. The Holder Representative shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable in its sole discretion, to distribute to the Pre-Closing Holders at any time such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage of the Holder Representative Expenses Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) there can be no assurances that any of the Holder Representative Expense Amount will be paid or disbursed to the Pre-Closing Holders and (B) no Pre-Closing Holder not be entitled to receive any interest on the Holder Representative Expense Amount.
ARTICLE XII.

A-77

Article IV (other than the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.15), (b)(x) breach of any Indemnified Covenant made by the Company and required to be performed by the Company prior to the Closing and (y) breach of any Indemnified Covenant made by the Holder Representative, (c) any and all unpaid Transaction Expenses and Funded Debt, in each case, to the extent not actually included in the calculation of the final Merger Consideration, (d) amounts paid to Dissenting Stockholders, including any interest required to be paid thereon, to the extent that such amounts are in excess of what such holders would have received hereunder had such Dissenting Stockholders not been holders of Dissenting Shares, (e) all Indemnified Taxes and (f) any claim made by any Pre-Closing Holder that such Pre-Closing Holder is entitled to any amount in respect of such Pre-Closing Holder’s shares of Company Stock or Options other than (i) the applicable Merger Consideration or Option Consideration as determined in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) in respect of such other rights of the Pre-Closing Holders as may be specifically set forth herein.
12.3 Indemnification by Industrea Parties.   Subject to the limitations set forth herein, from and after the Closing Date, the Industrea Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Holder Representative, the Pre-Closing Holders, their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, equity holders, partners, controlling Persons, agents, fiduciaries and members (each, an “Equityholder Indemnitee” and, together with the Industrea Indemnitees, collectively “Indemnitees” and each an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Losses arising from any (a) breach of any representations and warranties of any Industrea Party contained in Article V and (b) breach of any Indemnified Covenant made by an Industrea Party or to be performed by an Industrea Party, the Concrete Surviving Corporation or the Industrea Surviving Corporation from and after the Closing.
12.4 Limitations on Indemnification.
(a) The maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered by the Industrea Indemnitees pursuant to Section 12.2 shall be the Indemnity Escrow Amount (the “Cap”) and all indemnifiable Losses pursuant to Section 12.2 shall be satisfied solely and exclusively from the then remaining amounts in the Indemnity Escrow Fund.
(b) No indemnification claims for Losses shall be asserted by any Industrea Indemnitee under Section 12.2(a) unless the aggregate amount of Losses that would otherwise be payable under Section 12.2(a) exceeds $1,525,000 (the “Deductible”), whereupon the Industrea Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover the entire amount of such Losses and not only amounts in excess of the Deductible.
(c) No indemnification claims for Losses shall be asserted by any Equityholder Indemnitee under Section 12.3(a) unless the aggregate amount of Losses that would otherwise be payable under Section 12.3(a) exceeds the Deductible, whereupon the Equityholder Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover the entire amount of such Losses and not only amounts in excess of the Deductible.
(d) In no event shall the Pre-Closing Holders be responsible for Losses pursuant to Section 12.2(a) in excess of the funds then available in the Indemnity Escrow Fund.

(f) No party shall be obligated to indemnify any other Person with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or condition specifically waived in writing by the other party on or prior to the Closing.
(g) Any Loss under this Agreement shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Loss constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.
(h) If the Closing Date occurs on or after November 1, 2018, then no indemnification claims for Losses shall be asserted by any Industrea Indemnitee, and none of the Pre-Closing Holders shall be responsible (including from the Indemnity Escrow Fund), for any Losses arising from any Income Taxes with respect to the taxable period of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or of an Affiliated
A-78

Group of which one or more of them are members) that includes the date hereof; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that if the Closing Date occurs on or before October 31, 2018, then this Section 12.4(h) shall be disregarded and shall not apply.
12.5 Indemnification Claim Process.
(a) All claims for indemnification by an Indemnitee under this Article XII shall be asserted and resolved in accordance with Sections 12.5 and 12.6. With respect to any indemnification made by any Industrea Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12.3, any such claims shall be directed by the Indemnification Committee and the Holder Representative shall, on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, exercise all rights of the Indemnitor as set forth in this Article XII; provided, that the Holder Representative shall not have any liability as an Indemnitor to any Industrea Indemnitee pursuant to this Article XII.
(b) If an Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification pursuant to this Article XII, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify, with respect to an Industrea Indemnitee, the Holder Representative, and with respect to an Equityholder Indemnitee, Newco, in writing of such claim, describing such claim in reasonable detail and the amount or estimated amount of Losses (a “Claims Notice”); provided, that any failure or delay on the part of the Indemnitee to deliver such a Claims Notice shall not relieve the applicable Indemnitors of their obligations under this Article XII, except if, and only to the extent, that such failure or delay prejudices such Indemnitors.
(c) With respect to any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation, demand or other claim against an Indemnitee by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnitors shall have ten (10) Business Days from the date on which the Claims Notice with respect to such Third Party Claim was delivered to Newco or the Holder Representative (as applicable) to notify the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor desires to assume control of the defense or prosecution of the Third Party Claim and any litigation resulting therefrom by advising the Indemnitee of such in writing that (i) it is obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitee under terms of their indemnification obligations hereunder (and subject to the limitations on the indemnification obligations set forth herein) and (ii) that it will undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee) and at its own expense, the settlement or defense thereof and in which event the Indemnitee shall cooperate with it in connection therewith. If the Indemnitor assumes the defense of such claim in accordance herewith: (i) the Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at the Indemnitee’s sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, but the Indemnitor shall control the investigation, defense and settlement thereof; (ii) the Indemnitee shall not file any papers or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor; and (iii) the Indemnitor shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee unless the judgment or settlement provides solely for the payment of money and the applicable Indemnitees receive an unconditional release with respect to such Third Party Claim. The parties shall act in good faith in responding to, defending against, settling or otherwise dealing with Third Party Claims, and cooperate in any such defense and give each other reasonable access to all information relevant thereto and shall keep each other reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. Whether or not the Indemnitor has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any settlement entered into or any judgment consented to without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent.
(d) If the Indemnitor does not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Claims Notice, the Indemnitee will be entitled to assume such defense, at its sole cost and expense (It being understood that Indemnitors shall remain liable to the extent such costs and expenses constitute a Loss for which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article XII), upon delivery of notice to such effect to the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim at its sole cost and expense.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, if  (i) the claim seeks an injunction or other equitable relief, (ii) the
A-79

Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that there are one or more legal or equitable defenses available to them which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, counsel for the Indemnitor could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnitee because such interests could be in conflict with those of the Indemnitor, (iii) the Indemnitor fails to provide the Indemnitee with reasonable evidence that the Indemnitor has the financial wherewithal to pay for such defense, (iv) the Indemnitor shall not have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim within the required time period, (v) such Third Party Claim is brought by the Indemnitee’s customers, suppliers, lenders, equityholders, employees or other business relationships, (vi) the Third Party Claim involves a criminal matter or (vii) with respect to claims under Section 12.2, if the potential Losses involved in such Third Party Claim exceed the amount remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Fund.
(f) To the extent there is any inconsistency between this Section 12.5 and Section 8.6(d) as it relates to a Tax matter, the provisions of Section 8.6(d) shall govern.
12.6 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims.   The Indemnitee will deliver a Claims Notice to the Indemnitor promptly upon its discovery of any matter for which the Indemnitor may be liable to the Indemnitee hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim, which Claims Notice shall state that the Indemnitee has paid or properly accrued Losses or anticipates that it will incur liability for Losses for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnitor in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnitee and in otherwise resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation shall include providing reasonable access to and copies of information, records and documents relating to such matters, furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters and providing legal and business assistance with respect to such matters.
12.7 Exclusive Remedy.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, from and after the Closing, except (i) in the case of an actual (not constructive) fraud claim based on inaccuracies in the representations and warranties expressly and specifically set forth in this Agreement and any certificate delivered pursuant hereto, as qualified by the Schedules, in each case solely against the Person who committed such fraud, (ii) any claims pursuant to any Transaction Document other than this Agreement (including for the avoidance of doubt, any Letter of Transmittal or Restrictive Covenant Agreement) or (iii) as otherwise provided in Section 13.14, the indemnification provisions of Article XII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties following the Closing for any and all claims arising under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any breach or alleged breach of the provisions hereof.
(b) The Indemnity Escrow Amount and any interest accrued thereon (collectively, the “Indemnity Escrow Fund”) shall be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement. The Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be held until the earlier of  (x) the exhaustion of the Indemnity Escrow Fund and (y) the Cut-Off Date. Any portion of the Indemnity Escrow Fund remaining on the day following the Cut-Off Date shall be released to the Exchange Agent, less the sum of the aggregate amount, if any, claimed by the Industrea Indemnitees under Section 12.2 pursuant to claims (such claims, the “Outstanding Claims”) properly made against the Indemnity Escrow Fund in accordance with this Article XII and not fully resolved prior to the Cut-Off Date, which amount shall be retained by the Escrow Agent (such amount of the retained Indemnity Escrow Fund, as it may be further reduced after the Cut-Off Date by distributions to the Exchange Agent as set forth below and by recoveries by the Industrea Indemnitees pursuant to Section 12.2 and the Escrow Agreement, the “Retained Indemnity Escrow Amount”). In the event and to the extent that, after the Cut-Off Date, any Outstanding Claim made by any Industrea Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12.2 is resolved by the Holder Representative and the Industrea Indemnitee or finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (i) the Holder Representative and Newco shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to promptly release from the Indemnity Escrow Fund to the Exchange Agent, in accordance with payment instructions provided by the Holder Representative, an aggregate amount of the Retained Indemnity Escrow Amount equal to any amount of the Outstanding Claim resolved against such Industrea Indemnitee, and (ii) the Holder Representative and Newco shall jointly
A-80

instruct the Escrow Agent to promptly release from the Indemnity Escrow Fund to Newco, in accordance with payment instructions provided by Newco, an aggregate amount of the Retained Indemnity Escrow Amount equal to any amount of the Outstanding Claim resolved in favor of such Industrea Indemnitee. All amounts released from the Indemnity Escrow Fund to or on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders shall be paid to (x) to the Exchange Agent (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of the shares of Company Stock held by such Pre-Closing Holder immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the aggregate amount of such payment, multiplied by (B) the Aggregate Stock Escrow Percentage, (y) to the Surviving Corporation (for further delivery to each Pre-Closing Holder based on such Pre-Closing Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of the Vested Options held by such Pre-Closing Holder immediately prior to the Concrete Effective Time) an amount in cash equal to (A) the US Escrow Percentage of the aggregate amount of such payment, multiplied by (B) the Aggregate Option Escrow Percentage and (z) to the UK Rollover Investors an amount in cash equal to the UK Escrow Percentage of the aggregate amount of such payment (to be allocated among the UK Rollover Investors in accordance with the UK Share Purchase Agreement).
(c) Calculation of Losses; Limitations.   The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article XII shall be (i) net of any amounts actually recovered by any Indemnitee under insurance policies (including any representation and warranty insurance policy maintained by or for the benefit of the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing (other than the R&W Insurance Policy)), from third parties or otherwise with respect to such Loss (net of direct collection expenses and any increase in premiums under insurance policies to the extent attributable to the recovery of such proceeds), (ii) net of amounts accrued on the Company or any Subsidiary’s balance sheet as of the Closing Date or included in Closing Date Net Working Capital with respect to such Loss, (iii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnitees arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss in the year the Loss is incurred in any of the next three (3) years or in a prior year and reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss in the year the Loss is incurred or in a prior year. With respect to any matter giving rise to a claim for indemnification in this Article XII, should an Indemnitee receive the amounts described in the preceding sentence after such time as the Indemnitor has made payment to the Indemnitee with respect to such matter, the Indemnitee shall promptly pay any such amounts to the Indemnitor. In the event any Indemnitee determines it is entitled to insurance proceeds (including proceeds under any representation and warranty insurance policy maintained by or for the benefit of the Company prior to the Closing (other than the R&W Insurance Policy)) or any other third-party recoveries in respect of any Losses (or any of the circumstances giving rise thereto) for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII, such Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, receive or realize such proceeds, payments or recoveries. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no Indemnitor shall be liable to, or indemnify, any Indemnitee for any Losses (i) to the extent that such Losses result from or arise out of actions taken by such Indemnitee or any of its respective Affiliates from and after Closing, or (ii) that are punitive, or exemplary damages (except to the extent such damages are actually awarded in connection with a Third Party Claim).
12.8 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments.   Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, any indemnity payment made under this Agreement shall be treated by all parties as an adjustment to the final Merger Consideration for all federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes, and the parties shall file their Tax Returns accordingly.
12.9 Determination of Breaches and Losses.   For purposes of this Article XII, references to the terms “material,” “in all material respects,” Material Adverse Effect or any similar term or phrase contained in any representation or warranty (except for the representation and warranty in Section 4.12 and Section 4.23(a)) shall be disregarded for purposes of determining whether there has been any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement, and for purposes of determining the amount of Losses resulting therefrom.
A-81

12.10 Effect of Investigation.   A claim for indemnity may be made by the Indemnitees under Section 12.2 or Section 12.3 despite the fact that such Indemnitee had actual knowledge prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, of the breach of, or of any facts or circumstances constituting or resulting in the breach of, such representation or warranty. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be deemed to have relied upon, all representations, warranties and covenants of each other party set forth in this Agreement which have been or are made in favor of such party, and the rights of Indemnitees under this Article XII shall not be affected, notwithstanding (i) any investigation or examination conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) about the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation made by or on behalf of the parties hereto, (ii) the waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation, or (iii) the consummation of the Closing hereunder.
ARTICLE XIII.
MISCELLANEOUS
13.1 Waiver.   Any party to this Agreement may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its Board of Directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or (without limiting Section 13.10) agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Persons) as this Agreement. No waiver by any of the parties hereto of any default, misrepresentation or breach of representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver by any of the parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the party sought to be charged with such waiver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 13.1, Section 13.4, Section 13.10 and Section 13.17 (and any definition set forth in, or other provision of, this Agreement to the extent that a waiver of such definition or other provision would amend or modify the substance of this Section 13.1, Section 13.4, Section 13.10 and Section 13.17) may not be waived in a manner adverse to any Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Financing Source (and any such waiver without such prior written consent shall be null and void).
13.2 Notices.   All notices and other communications among the parties shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) when delivered in person, (ii) when delivered after posting in the United States mail having been sent registered or certified mail return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) when delivered by FedEx or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service, or (iv) when delivered by email, solely if receipt is confirmed, addressed as follows:

Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

13.7 Captions; Counterparts.   The captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
13.8 Schedules and Annexes.   The Schedules and Annexes referenced herein are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein. All references herein to Schedules and Annexes shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require. Any disclosure made by a party in the Schedules with reference to any section or schedule of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a disclosure with respect to all other sections or schedules to which the relevance of such disclosure is reasonably apparent. Certain information set forth in the Schedules is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made in this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality.
13.9 Entire Agreement.   This Agreement (together with the Schedules and Annexes to this Agreement), the Escrow Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Restrictive Covenant Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings or agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exist between the parties, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Restrictive Covenant Agreements.
13.10 Amendments.   This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement. The approval of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Company shall not restrict the ability of the Company Board to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1 or to cause the Company to enter into an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.10 to the extent permitted under Section 251(d) of the DGCL. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Section 13.1, Section 13.4, this Section 13.10 and Section 13.17 (and any definition set forth in, or other provision of, this Agreement to the extent that an amendment or modification of such definition or other provision would amend or modify the substance of Section 13.1, Section 13.4, this Section 13.10 and Section 13.17) may not be amended or modified in a manner that is adverse to any Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Financing Source (and any such amendment or modification without such prior written consent shall be null and void).
13.11 Publicity.   The parties hereto agree that, from the date hereof through the Closing Date, no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued or made by or on behalf of any party without the prior consent of the other parties and otherwise as a party may
A-84

reasonably determine is necessary to comply with applicable Law (including under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) or the requirements of any agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Industrea Parties and the Company shall cooperate to prepare a joint press release to be issued on or promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) after the date of this Agreement and a joint press release to be issued on the Closing Date. The Company and the Industrea Parties agree to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential, except to the extent and to the Persons to whom disclosure is required by applicable Law (including under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) or for purposes of compliance with financial reporting obligations; provided, that the parties may disclose such terms to their respective employees, accountants, advisors and other representatives as necessary in connection with the ordinary conduct of their respective businesses (so long as such Persons agree to, or are bound by contract or professional or fiduciary obligations to, keep the terms of this Agreement confidential and so long as the parties shall be responsible to the other parties hereto for breach of this Section 13.11 or such confidentiality obligations by the recipients of its disclosure). The Company and Industrea further acknowledge and agree that, PGP Investors, LLC and Argand Partners LP may disclose such terms and the existence of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to its Affiliates in order that such Persons may provide information about the subject matter of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to their respective actual and prospective limited partners and investors in connection with their fundraising and reporting activities.
13.12 Severability.   If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.
13.13 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in the Delaware Chancery Court (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or, in the case of claims to which the federal courts have subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and, in each case, appellate courts therefrom, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of such Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 13.13(a).
(b) Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any Action arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party hereto (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such party would not, in the event of any Action, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 13.13(b).
13.14 Enforcement.   The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur, and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law, in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of
A-85

actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. To the extent any party hereto brings an Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than an Action to enforce specifically any provision that by its terms requires performance after the Closing or expressly survives termination of this Agreement), the Termination Date shall automatically be extended to (i) the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the resolution of such Action or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action (it being understood that this Section 13.14 shall not be deemed to alter, amend, supplement or otherwise modify the terms of any Debt Commitment Letter (including the expiration or termination provisions thereof)).
13.15 Non-Recourse.   This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement and not otherwise), no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company, Industrea or Concrete Merger Sub under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) or of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
13.16 Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representations; Non-Assertion of Attorney-Client Privilege.
(a) Conflicts of Interest.   Industrea acknowledges that Latham & Watkins LLP, Ballard Spahr LLP and other legal counsel (“Prior Company Counsel”) have, on or prior to the Closing Date, represented one or more of the Holder Representative, one or more Pre-Closing Holders, the Company, and its Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and their respective officers, employees and directors (each such Person, other than the Company and its Subsidiaries, a “Designated Person”) in one or more matters relating to this Agreement or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby (including any matter that may be related a litigation, claim or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement or such other agreements or in connection with such transactions) (each, an “Existing Representation”), and that, in the event of any post-Closing matters (x) relating to this Agreement or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby (including any matter that may be related to a litigation, claim or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement or such other agreements or in connection with such transactions) and (y) in which Industrea or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and one or more Designated Persons, on the other hand, are or may be adverse to each other (each, a “Post-Closing Matter”), the Designated Persons reasonably anticipate that Prior Company Counsel will represent them in connection with such matters. Accordingly, each of Industrea and the Company hereby (i) waives and shall not assert, and agrees after the Closing to cause its Affiliates to waive and to not assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation by one or more Prior Company Counsel of one or more Designated Persons in connection with one or more Post-Closing Matters (the “Post-Closing Representations”), and (ii) agrees that, in the event that a Post-Closing Matter arises, Prior Company Counsel may represent one or more Designated Persons in Post-Closing Matter even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to Industrea or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries), and even though Prior Company Counsel may (i) have represented the Company or its Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute or (ii) be currently representing Industrea, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates. Without limiting the foregoing, each of Industrea and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) consents to the disclosure by Prior Company Counsel, in connection with one or more Post-Closing Representations, to the Designated Persons of any information learned by Prior Company Counsel in the course of one or more Existing Representations, whether or not such information is subject to the
A-86

attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Prior Company Counsel’s duty of confidentiality as to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and whether or not such disclosure is made before or after the Closing.
(b) Attorney-Client Privilege.   Each of Industrea and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) waives and shall not assert, and agrees after the Closing to cause its Affiliates to waive and to not assert, any attorney-client privilege, attorney work-product protection or expectation of client confidence with respect to any communication between any Prior Company Counsel, on the one hand, and any Designated Person or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Pre-Closing Designated Persons”), or any advice given to any Pre-Closing Designated Person by any Prior Company Counsel, occurring during one or more Existing Representations (collectively, “Pre-Closing Privileges”) in connection with any Post-Closing Representation, including in connection with a dispute between any Designated Person and one or more of Industrea, the Company and their respective Affiliates, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all rights to such Pre-Closing Privileges, and all rights to waiver or otherwise control such Pre-Closing Privilege, shall be retained by the Holder Representative, and shall not pass to or be claimed or used by Industrea or the Company, except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 13.16(b). Furthermore, each of Industrea and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) acknowledges and agrees that any advice given to or communication with any of the Designated Persons shall not be subject to any joint privilege (whether or not the Company or one more of its Subsidiaries also received such advice or communication) and shall be owned solely by such Designated Persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Industrea or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and a third party other than a Designated Person, on the other hand, the Company shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) assert the Pre-Closing Privileges on behalf of the Designated Persons to prevent disclosure of Privileged Materials to such third party; provided, however, that such privilege may be waived only with the prior written consent of the Holder Representative.
(c) Privileged Materials.   All such Pre-Closing Privileges, and all books and records and other documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries containing any advice or communication that is subject to any Pre-Closing Privilege (“Privileged Materials”), shall be excluded from the purchase, and shall be distributed to the Holder Representative (on behalf of the applicable Designated Persons) immediately prior to the Closing with (in the case of such books and records) no copies retained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Absent the prior written consent of the Holder Representative, neither Industrea nor (following the Closing) the Company shall have a right of access to Privileged Materials.
(d) This Section 13.16 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 13.16 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of the Holder Representative and its Affiliates and Prior Company Counsel affected thereby.
13.17 Certain Matters Regarding the Financing Sources.
(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) each of the Holder Representative (on behalf of itself, the Pre-Closing Holders and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons), the Company (on behalf of itself and its officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons) and each of the other parties hereto agrees that any claim, controversy or dispute of any kind or nature (whether in contract or in tort, in Law, in equity or otherwise) involving or against a Financing Source that is in any way related to this Agreement, a Debt Commitment Letter, the financings contemplated thereby or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of Law principles that would require the application of any other Law, and (ii) each of the Holder Representative (on behalf of itself, the Pre-Closing Holders and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons), the Company (on behalf of itself and its officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons) and each of the other parties hereto (A) agrees that it will not bring or support any Person, or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support any Person, in any action, suit, proceeding, cause of
A-87

action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in Law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement, a Debt Commitment Letter, the financings contemplated thereby or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in any forum other than exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the County of New York (and appellate courts thereof), (B) submits for itself and its property with respect to any such action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (C) waives and hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such action in any such court, (D) agrees that service of process, summons, complaint, notice or document or any other process that might be served in any action or proceeding may be made on any party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to such party to be served at the address of such party and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 13.2 and shall be effective service of process against it for any such action brought in any such court, and (E) HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, A DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER, THE FINANCINGS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO A DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER OR THE PERFORMANCE THEREOF OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST ANY FINANCING SOURCE.
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Holder Representative (on behalf of itself, the Pre-Closing Holders and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons), the Company (on behalf of itself and its officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons) and each of the other parties hereto agrees that (i) none of it, its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and controlling Persons shall have any rights or claims against any Financing Source in connection with this Agreement, a Debt Commitment Letter, the financings contemplated thereby or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at Law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise; provided, however, that the foregoing will not limit the rights of the parties to a Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive documentation for the financings contemplated thereby, and (ii) in no event will any Financing Source be liable for punitive, special, exemplary, indirect, consequential or incidental damages or liabilities, or damages or liabilities argued to be associated with lost profits or diminution in value or damages or liabilities based on any type of multiple or damages of a tortious nature in connection with this Agreement, a Debt Commitment Letter, the financings contemplated thereby or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at Law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.
13.18 Trust Account Waiver.   The Company acknowledges that, as described in the Prospectus, dated June 26, 2017, Industrea established the Trust Account for the benefit of its public shareholders. The Company acknowledges that, prior to the Closing, it does not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account, including, without limitation, any claim for indemnification and hereby waives any claim for monies in the Trust Account it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby or any other transactions contemplated amongst the Company and Newco, Industrea, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub and Industrea Merger Sub prior to the Closing and, prior to the Closing, will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

Subject to Section 5.5 hereof, if the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned by the Board among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, but in no case shall a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. Subject to the rights of the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock, voting separately by class or series, to elect directors pursuant to the terms of one or more series of Preferred Stock, the election of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The Board is hereby expressly authorized, by resolution or resolutions thereof, to assign members of the Board already in office to the aforesaid classes at the time this Amended and Restated Certificate (and therefore such classification) becomes effective in accordance with the DGCL.
(c) Subject to Section 5.5 hereof, a director shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his or her term expires and until his or her successor has been elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.
(d) Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws shall so require, the election of directors need not be by written ballot.
Section 5.3 Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies.   Subject to Section 5.5 hereof, newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors and any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal or other cause may be filled solely and exclusively by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (and not by stockholders), and any director so chosen shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors to which the new directorship was added or in which the vacancy occurred and until his or her successor has been elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.
B-1-3

Section 5.4 Removal.   Subject to Section 5.5 hereof, any or all of the directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
Section 5.5 Preferred Stock — Directors.   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V, and except as otherwise required by law, whenever the holders of one or more series of the Preferred Stock shall have the right, voting separately by class or series, to elect one or more directors, the term of office, the filling of vacancies, the removal from office and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of such series of the Preferred Stock as set forth in this Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation) and such directors shall not be included in any of the classes created pursuant to this Article V unless expressly provided by such terms.
ARTICLE VI

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred upon it by law, the Board shall have the power and is expressly authorized to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The affirmative vote of a majority of the Board shall be required to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The Bylaws also may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by the stockholders; provided, however, that in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation required by law or by this Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required for the stockholders to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws; and provided further, however, that no Bylaws hereafter adopted by the stockholders shall invalidate any prior act of the Board that would have been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.
ARTICLE VII
MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS; ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT
Section 7.1 Meetings.   Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of the Preferred Stock, and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called only by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, or the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Board, and the ability of the stockholders to call a special meeting is hereby specifically denied. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, special meetings of stockholders may not be called by another person or persons.
Section 7.2 Advance Notice.   Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws.

ARTICLE VIII
LIMITED LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION
Section 8.1 Limitation of Director Liability.   A director of the Corporation shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. Any amendment, modification or repeal of the foregoing sentence shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification or repeal. If the DGCL is
B-1-4

hereafter amended to authorize corporate action further limiting or eliminating personal liability of directors, then the liability of each current or former director or officer of the Corporation shall be limited or eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended from time to time.
Section 8.2 Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is or was made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by such indemnitee in connection with such proceeding. The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an indemnitee in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 8.2 or otherwise. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred by this Section 8.2 shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2(a), except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to an indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.
(b) The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred on any indemnitee by this Section 8.2 shall not be exclusive of any other rights that any indemnitee may have or hereafter acquire under law, this Amended and Restated Certificate, the Bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.
(c) Any repeal or amendment of this Section 8.2 by the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate inconsistent with this Section 8.2, shall, unless otherwise required by law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and shall not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision in respect of any proceeding (regardless of when such proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) arising out of, or related to, any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.
(d) This Section 8.2 shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than indemnitees.
(e) The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any indemnitee against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.
B-1-5

ARTICLE IX
CORPORATE OPPORTUNITY
(a) To the extent allowed by law, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any other analogous doctrine, shall not apply with respect to the Corporation or any of its non-employee directors, or any of their respective affiliates, in circumstances where the application of any such doctrine would conflict with any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations they may have as of the date of this Amended and Restated Certificate or in the future, and the Corporation renounces any expectancy that any of the non-employee directors of the Corporation will offer any such corporate opportunity of which he or she may become aware to the Corporation, except, the doctrine of corporate opportunity shall apply with respect to any of the non-employee directors of the Corporation with respect to a corporate opportunity that was offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director of the Corporation and such opportunity is one the Corporation is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for the Corporation to pursue.
(b) Neither the alteration, amendment, addition to or repeal of this Article IX, nor the adoption of any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate inconsistent with this Article IX, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article IX in respect of any business opportunity first identified or any other matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article IX, would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, addition, repeal or adoption. This Article IX shall not limit any protections or defenses available to, or indemnification or advancement rights of, any director or officer of the Corporation under this Amended and Restated Certificate, the Bylaws or applicable law.
ARTICLE X
EXCLUSIVE FORUM FOR CERTAIN LAWSUITS
Section 10.1 Forum.   Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or this Amended and Restated Certificate or the Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine, except for, as to each of  (i) through (iv) above, any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction.
Section 11.2 Consent to Jurisdiction.   If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of Section 10.1 immediately above is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce Section 10.1 immediately above (an “FSC Enforcement Action”) and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such FSC Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.
Section 11.3 Severability.   If any provision or provisions of this Article X shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article X (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article X containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other
B-1-6

persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article X.

The Corporation reserves the right at any time and from time to time to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), and other provisions authorized by the laws of the State of Delaware at the time in force that may be added or inserted, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by this Amended and Restated Certificate and the DGCL; provided, however that the affirmative vote of holders of at least sixty-six and two thirds percent (6623%) of the total number of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally on the election of directors, voting as a single class, shall be required to amend or repeal Articles IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X and XI of this Amended and Restated Certificate.

BYLAWS
OF
CONCRETE PUMPING HOLDINGS ACQUISITION CORP.
Adopted [_], 2018
Article 1
Stockholders
1.1 Place of Meetings.   Meetings of stockholders of Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), shall be held at the place, either within or without the State of Delaware, as may be designated by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) from time to time.
1.2 Annual Meetings.   Annual meetings of stockholders shall be held at such time and place as fixed by the Board of Directors for the purpose of electing directors and transacting any other business as may properly come before such meetings.
1.3 Special Meetings.   Except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of stockholders for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time only by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Lead Director of the Board of Directors, to be held at such place, date and time as shall be designated in the notice or waiver of notice thereof. Only business within the purposes described in the Corporation’s notice of meeting required by Section  1.4 may be conducted at the special meetings. The ability of the stockholders to call a special meeting is specifically denied.
1.4 Notice of Meetings.   Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given that shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by law, the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation (as the same may be amended or restated from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) or these Bylaws, the written notice of any meeting shall be given no fewer than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his or her address as it appears on the records of the Corporation.
1.5 Adjournments.   Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.
1.6 Quorum.   Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws, at each meeting of stockholders, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares of stock having a majority of the votes that could be cast by the holders of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the stockholders present at any duly convened meeting may continue to do business until adjournment notwithstanding any withdrawal from the meeting of holders of shares counted in determining the existence of a quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the stockholders so present may, by majority vote, adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 1.5 of these Bylaws until a quorum shall attend. Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Corporation shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.
B-2-1

1.7 Organization.   Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if any, or in his or her absence by the Lead Director, if any, or in his or her absence by the Vice Chairman of the Board of the Directors, if any, or in his or her absence by the Chief Executive Officer, or in his or her absence by a chairman designated by the Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation, by a chairman chosen at the meeting. The Board of Directors may appoint a non-executive Lead Director, who shall be a director of the Corporation and shall undertake duties prescribed herein and such other duties or responsibilities as the Board of Directors may assign. The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in his or her absence the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.
1.8 Voting; Proxies.   Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder that has voting power upon the matter in question. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Corporation. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes entitled to be cast by the stockholders who are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. All other elections and questions shall, unless otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, be decided by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the stockholders who are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote. In the case of a matter submitted for a vote of the stockholders as to which a stockholder approval requirement is applicable under the stockholder approval policy of The Nasdaq Stock Market or any other exchange or quotation system on which the capital stock of the Corporation is quoted or traded, the requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any provision of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), in each case for which no higher voting requirement is specified by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”), the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the vote required for approval shall be the requisite vote specified in such stockholder approval policy, Rule 16b-3 or Code provision, as the case may be (or the highest such requirement if more than one is applicable).
1.9 Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record.   In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date for stockholders entitled to receive notice of the meeting of stockholders, which shall not be more than 60 nor fewer than 10 days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. If the Board of Directors so fixes a date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of a meeting of stockholders, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board of Directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed: (1) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held; and (2) the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote.
B-2-2

1.10 List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote.   The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is fewer than 10 days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder as of the record date. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. An original or duplicate stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list of stockholders or the books of the Corporation or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.
1.11 Notice of Stockholder Business; Nominations.
(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.   Nominations of one or more individuals to the Board of Directors (each, a “Nomination,” and more than one, “Nominations”) and the proposal of business other than Nominations (“Business”) to be considered by the stockholders of the Corporation may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (1)  pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting or any supplement thereto (provided, however, that reference in the Corporation’s notice of meeting to the election of directors or to the election of members of the Board of Directors shall not include or be deemed to include Nominations), (2) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (3) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 1.11 is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.11.

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders.   Only such Business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting; provided, however, that reference in the Corporation’s notice of meeting to the election of directors or to the election of members of the Board of Directors shall not include or be deemed to include Nominations. Nominations may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (1) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (2) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time the notice provided for in this Section 1.11 is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and upon such election, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.11. In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may make Nominations of one or more individuals (as the case may be) for election to such positions as specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting, if the stockholder’s notice required by Section 1.11(c)(1) shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation in accordance with Section 1.11(c)(1)(E).

(D) Notwithstanding Section 1.11(c)(1)(C), in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation is increased and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, the stockholder’s notice required by this Section  1.11 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.

Stock
5.1 Certificates.
(a) The Corporation is authorized to issue shares of common stock of the Corporation in certificated or uncertificated form. The shares of the common stock of the Corporation shall be registered on the books of the Corporation in the order in which they shall be issued. Any certificates for shares of the common stock, and any other shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented by certificates, shall be numbered, shall be signed by (i) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President or a Vice President and (ii) the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer. Any or all of the signatures on a certificate may be a facsimile signature. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he, she or it were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of uncertificated stock, the Corporation shall send, or cause to be sent, to the record owner thereof a written statement setting forth the name of the Corporation, the name of the stockholder, the number and class of shares and such other information as is required by law, including Section 151(f) of the DGCL.

5.2 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Stock Certificates; Issuance of New Certificates.   The Corporation may issue a new certificate of stock in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Corporation may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate. If shares represented by a stock certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed have become uncertificated shares, the Corporation may, in lieu of issuing a new certificate, cause such shares to be reflected on its books as uncertificated shares and may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate.

Article 6
Indemnification
6.1 Right to Indemnification.   The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), any person who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee, partner, manager, representative or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, enterprise or
B-2-10

nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained or sponsored by the Corporation (an “Indemnitee”), whether the basis in such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as director, officer, employee, member, trustee, partner, manager, representative or agent or in any other capacity while serving as such, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties, and amounts paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection therewith, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The Corporation shall indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee only if the initiation of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnitee was authorized by the Board of Directors.
6.2 Prepayment of Expenses.   The Corporation shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that the payment of expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking (an “Undertaking”) by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article or otherwise.
6.3 Claims.
(a) To obtain indemnification under this Article 6, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the claimant is entitled to indemnification. Upon written request by an Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of this Section  6.3(a), a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to the Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who are not and were not parties to the matter in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee (“Disinterested Directors”), (2) if a quorum of the Board of Directors consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by less than a quorum of the Board of Directors consisting of Disinterested Directors or (3) if a majority of Disinterested Directors so directs, by the stockholders of the Corporation.
(b) If a claim for indemnification or payment of expenses under this Article  6 is not paid in full by the Corporation within 30 days after a written claim therefor by the Indemnitee has been received by the Corporation, the Indemnitee may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required Undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the Indemnitee has not met the standard of conduct that makes it permissible under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the Indemnitee for the amount claimed. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or stockholders) that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section  6.3(b) that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 6.3(b). The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section  6.3(b) that the procedures and presumptions of this Article  6 are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in such proceeding that the Corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Article  6.
B-2-11

6.4 Employees and Agents.   The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification, and rights to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition, to any current or former employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article 6 with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of current or former directors and officers of the Corporation.
6.5 Nonexclusivity of Rights.   The rights conferred on any person by this Article 6 shall not be exclusive of any other rights that such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or Disinterested Directors or otherwise.
6.6 Other Indemnification.   The Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify any person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity shall be reduced by any amount such person may collect as indemnification from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit enterprise.
6.7 Nature of Indemnification Rights; Amendment or Repeal.   Each person who was, is, or becomes a director or officer shall be deemed to have served or to have continued to serve in such capacity in reliance upon the indemnity provided for in this Article 6. Such rights shall be deemed to have vested at the time such person becomes or became a director or officer of the Corporation, and such rights shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. Any amendment, modification, alteration or repeal of this Article 6 that in any way diminishes, limits, restricts, adversely affects or eliminates any right of an Indemnitee or his or her successors to indemnification, advancement of expenses or otherwise shall be prospective only and shall not in any way diminish, limit, restrict, adversely affect or eliminate any such right with respect to any actual or alleged state of facts, occurrence, action or omission then or previously existing, or any action, suit or proceeding previously or thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in part upon any such actual or alleged state of facts, occurrence, action or omission.
6.8 Enforceability.   If any provision or provisions of this Article  6 shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, then (1) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article 6 (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section or paragraph of this Article 6 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and (2) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article 6 (including, without limitation, each such portion of any Section or paragraph of this Article  6 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
6.9 Insurance for Indemnification.   The Corporation may purchase and maintain, at its expense, insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of Section 145 of the DGCL. To the extent that the Corporation maintains any policy or policies providing such insurance, each such current or former director or officer, and each such agent or employee to which rights to indemnification have been granted as provided in Section 6.4, shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage thereunder for any such current or former director, officer, employee or agent.
6.10 Limitation on Indemnification.   Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 6 to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section  6.3), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) or advance expenses in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors.
B-2-12

7.3 Notices.   Except as may otherwise be required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any notice to the Corporation, any stockholder or director must be in writing and may be transmitted by: mail, private carrier or personal delivery; telegraph or teletype; or telephone, wire or wireless equipment that transmits a facsimile of the notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:
(a) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent; and
(b) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.
Inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action. An “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.
Written notice by the Corporation to its stockholders shall be deemed effective when mailed, if mailed with first-class postage prepaid and correctly addressed to the stockholder’s address shown in the Corporation’s current record of stockholders.

7.4 Waiver of Notice of Meetings of Stockholders, Directors and Committees.   Any written waiver of notice, signed by the person entitled to notice, or waiver by electronic transmission by the person or persons entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of any regular or special meeting of the stockholders, directors or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, any adjustment with respect to an Incentive Stock Option due to an adjustment or substitution described in this Section 5 shall comply with the rules of Code Section 424(a), and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would render any Incentive Stock Option granted hereunder to be disqualified as an incentive stock option for purposes of Code Section 422. The Administrator’s determinations pursuant to this Section 5 shall be final, binding and conclusive.
Section 6. Eligibility.
The Participants under the Plan shall be selected from time to time by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, from among Eligible Recipients.
Section 7. Options.
(a) General.   The Committee may, in its sole discretion, grant Options to Participants. Solely with respect to Participants who are Employees, the Committee may grant Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified Stock Options or a combination of both. With respect to all other Participants, the Committee may grant only Nonqualified Stock Options. Each Participant who is granted an Option shall enter into an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion, which Award Agreement shall specify whether the Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option and shall set forth, among other things, the Exercise Price of the Option, the term of the Option and provisions regarding exercisability of the Option granted thereunder. The provisions of each Option need not be the same with respect to each Participant. More than one Option may be granted to the same Participant and be outstanding concurrently hereunder. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. The prospective recipient of an Option shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date.
(b) Limits on Incentive Stock Options.   If the Administrator grants Incentive Stock Options, then to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any individual during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such Options will be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options to the extent required by Code Section 422.

(c) Exercise Price.   The Exercise Price of Shares purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion at the time of grant; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the Exercise Price of an Incentive Stock Option be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, and (ii) no Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent (10%) stockholder of the Company’s Common Stock (within the meaning of Code Section 422(b)(6)) shall have an exercise price per share less than one-hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on such date.
(d) Option Term.   The maximum term of each Option shall be fixed by the Administrator, but in no event shall (i) an Option be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date such Option is granted, and (ii) an Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent (10%) stockholder of the Company’s Common Stock (within the meaning of Code Section 422(b)(6)) be exercisable more than five (5) years after the date such Option is granted. Each Option’s term is subject to earlier expiration pursuant to the applicable provisions in the Plan and the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall have the authority to accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding Option at such time and under such circumstances as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, if, on the date an outstanding Option would expire, the exercise of the Option, including by a “net exercise” or “cashless” exercise, would violate applicable securities laws or any insider trading policy maintained by the Company from time to time, the expiration date applicable to the Option will be extended, except to the extent such extension would violate Section 409A, to a date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the date the exercise of the Option would no longer violate applicable securities laws or any such insider trading policy.
(e) Exercisability.   Each Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions, including the attainment of pre-established Performance Goals, as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator may also provide that any Option shall be exercisable only in installments, and the Administrator may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time, in whole or in part, based on such factors as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share.
(f) Method of Exercise.   Options may be exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Shares to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares so purchased in cash or its equivalent, as determined by the Administrator. As determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Option or category of Options, payment in whole or in part may also be made (i) by means of consideration received under any cashless exercise procedure approved by the Administrator (including the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise), (ii) in the form of unrestricted Shares already owned by the Participant which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (iii) any other form of consideration approved by the Administrator and permitted by applicable law or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. In determining which methods a Participant may utilize to pay the Exercise Price, the Administrator may consider such factors as it determines are appropriate; provided, however, that with respect to Incentive Stock Options, all such discretionary determinations shall be made by the Administrator at the time of grant and specified in the Award Agreement.
(g) Rights as Stockholder.   A Participant shall have no rights to dividends or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to an Option until the Participant has given written notice of the exercise thereof, has paid in full for such Shares and has satisfied the requirements of Section 15 of the Plan and the Shares have been issued to the Participant.
(h) Termination of Employment or Service.
(i) Unless the applicable Award Agreement provides otherwise, in the event that the employment or service of a Participant with the Company and all Affiliates thereof shall terminate for any reason other than Cause, Retirement, Disability, or death, (A) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they are exercisable at the time of such termination, shall
C-9

remain exercisable until the date that is ninety (90) days after such termination, on which date they shall expire, and (B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination. The ninety (90) day period described in this Section 7(h)(i) shall be extended to one (1) year after the date of such termination in the event of the Participant’s death during such ninety (90) day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of its term.
(ii) Unless the applicable Award Agreement provides otherwise, in the event that the employment or service of a Participant with the Company and all Affiliates thereof shall terminate on account of Retirement, Disability or the death of the Participant, (A) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until the date that is one (1) year after such termination, on which date they shall expire and (B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of its term.
(iii) In the event of the termination of a Participant’s employment or service for Cause, all outstanding Options granted to such Participant shall expire at the commencement of business on the date of such termination.
(iv) For purposes of this Section 7(h), Options that are not exercisable solely due to a blackout period shall be considered exercisable.
(i) Other Change in Employment Status.   An Option may be affected, both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves of absence, changes from full-time to part-time employment, partial disability or other changes in the employment status or service of a Participant, as evidenced in a Participant’s Award Agreement.
(j) Change in Control.   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Options shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.
Section 8. Stock Appreciation Rights.
(a) General.   Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted either alone (“Free Standing Rights”) or in conjunction with all or part of any Option granted under the Plan (“Related Rights”). Related Rights may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of such Option. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be made, the number of Shares to be awarded, the price per Share, and all other conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Related Right may be granted for more Shares than are subject to the Option to which it relates and any Stock Appreciation Right must be granted with an Exercise Price not less than the Fair Market Value of Common Stock on the date of grant. The provisions of Stock Appreciation Rights need not be the same with respect to each Participant. Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable, as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.
(b) Awards; Rights as Stockholder.   The prospective recipient of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date.
(c) Exercisability.
(i) Stock Appreciation Rights that are Free Standing Rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement.
C-10

(ii) Stock Appreciation Rights that are Related Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the Options to which they relate shall be exercisable in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 above and this Section 8 of the Plan.
(d) Payment Upon Exercise.
(i) Upon the exercise of a Free Standing Right, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Shares, determined using the Fair Market Value, equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise over the price per share specified in the Free Standing Right multiplied by the number of Shares in respect of which the Free Standing Right is being exercised.
(ii) A Related Right may be exercised by a Participant by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Option. Upon such exercise and surrender, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Shares, determined using the Fair Market Value, equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise over the Exercise Price specified in the related Option multiplied by the number of Shares in respect of which the Related Right is being exercised. Options which have been so surrendered, in whole or in part, shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the Related Rights have been so exercised.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may determine to settle the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right in cash (or in any combination of Shares and cash).
(e) Rights as Stockholder.   A Participant shall have no rights to dividends or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right until the Participant has given written notice of the exercise thereof, has satisfied the requirements of Section 15 of the Plan and the Shares have been issued to the Participant.
(f) Termination of Employment or Service.
(i) In the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company and all Affiliates thereof of a Participant who has been granted one or more Free Standing Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement.
(ii) In the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company and all Affiliates thereof of a Participant who has been granted one or more Related Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as set forth in the related Options.
(g) Term.
(i) The term of each Free Standing Right shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Free Standing Right shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date such right is granted.
(ii) The term of each Related Right shall be the term of the Option to which it relates, but no Related Right shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date such right is granted.
(h) Change in Control.   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.
(i) Automatic Exercise.   Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in an Award Agreement or otherwise, or as otherwise directed by the Participant in writing to the Company, each vested and exercisable Stock Appreciation Right outstanding on the Automatic Exercise Date with an Exercise Price per Share that is less than the Fair Market Value per Share as of such date shall automatically and without further action by the Participant or the Company be exercised on the Automatic Exercise Date. The Company or any Affiliate shall deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy all taxes associated with such exercise in accordance with Section 15. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, this Section 8(i) shall not apply to a Stock Appreciation Right if the Participant’s
C-11

employment or service has terminated on or before the Automatic Exercise Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Stock Appreciation Right with an Exercise Price per Share that is equal to or greater the Fair Market Value per Share on the Automatic Exercise Date shall be exercised pursuant to this Section 8(i).
Section 9. Restricted Shares.
(a) General.   Restricted Shares may be issued either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted Shares shall be made; the number of Shares to be awarded; the price, if any, to be paid by the Participant for the acquisition of Restricted Shares; the Restricted Period, if any, applicable to Restricted Shares; the Performance Goals (if any) applicable to Restricted Shares; and all other conditions of the Restricted Shares. If the restrictions, Performance Goals and/or conditions established by the Administrator are not attained, a Participant shall forfeit his or her Restricted Shares in accordance with the terms of the grant. The provisions of the Restricted Shares need not be the same with respect to each Participant.
(b) Awards and Certificates.   The prospective recipient of Restricted Shares shall not have any rights with respect to any such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(c) of the Plan, (i) each Participant who is granted an award of Restricted Shares may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be issued a stock certificate in respect of such Restricted Shares; and (ii) any such certificate so issued shall be registered in the name of the Participant, and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to any such Award.
The Company may require that the stock certificates, if any, evidencing Restricted Shares granted hereunder be held in the custody of the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a condition of any award of Restricted Shares, the Participant shall have delivered a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares covered by such Award.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, any Restricted Shares (whether before or after any vesting conditions have been satisfied) may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be issued in uncertificated form pursuant to the customary arrangements for issuing shares in such form.
(c) Restrictions and Conditions.   The Restricted Shares granted pursuant to this Section 9 shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions and any additional restrictions or conditions as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant or thereafter:
(i) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole or in part based on such factors and such circumstances as the Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, the attainment of certain Performance Goals, the Participant’s termination of employment or service as a non-employee Director or Consultant of the Company or an Affiliate thereof, or the Participant’s death or Disability.
(ii) Except as provided in Section 16 of the Plan or in the Award Agreement, the Participant shall generally have the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to Restricted Shares during the Restricted Period. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in its discretion, Participants will be entitled to vote Restricted Shares. In the Administrator’s discretion and as provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant may receive dividends or dividend equivalents on an Award of Restricted Shares, which will be payable in accordance with the terms of such grant as determined by the Administrator. Certificates for Shares of unrestricted Common Stock may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be delivered to the Participant only after the Restricted Period has expired without forfeiture in respect of such Restricted Shares, except as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall otherwise determine.
C-12

(iii) The rights of Participants granted Restricted Shares upon termination of employment or service as a non-employee Director or Consultant of the Company or an Affiliate thereof terminates for any reason during the Restricted Period shall be set forth in the Award Agreement.
(d) Change in Control.   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Restricted Shares shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.
Section 10. Restricted Stock Units.
(a) General.   Restricted Stock Units may be issued either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted Stock Units shall be made; the number of Restricted Stock Units to be awarded; the Restricted Period, if any, applicable to Restricted Stock Units; the Performance Goals (if any) applicable to Restricted Stock Units; and all other conditions of the Restricted Stock Units. If the restrictions, Performance Goals and/or conditions established by the Administrator are not attained, a Participant shall forfeit his or her Restricted Stock Units in accordance with the terms of the grant. The provisions of Restricted Stock Units need not be the same with respect to each Participant.
(b) Award Agreement.   The prospective recipient of Restricted Stock Units shall not have any rights with respect to any such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date.
(c) Restrictions and Conditions.   The Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Section 10 shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions and any additional restrictions or conditions as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant or, subject to Code Section 409A, thereafter:
(i) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole or in part based on such factors and such circumstances as the Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, the attainment of certain Performance Goals, the Participant’s termination of employment or service as a non-employee Director or Consultant of the Company or an Affiliate thereof, or the Participant’s death or Disability.
(ii) Participants holding Restricted Stock Units shall have no voting rights. A Restricted Stock Unit may, at the Administrator’s discretion, carry with it a right to dividend equivalents. Such right would entitle the holder to be credited with an amount equal to all cash dividends paid on one Share while the Restricted Stock Unit is outstanding. The Administrator, in its discretion, may grant dividend equivalents from the date of grant or only after a Restricted Stock Unit is vested.
(iii) The rights of Participants granted Restricted Stock Units upon termination of employment or service as a non-employee Director or Consultant of the Company or an Affiliate thereof terminates for any reason during the Restricted Period shall be set forth in the Award Agreement.
(d) Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.   Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units shall be made to Participants in the form of Shares, unless the Administrator, in its sole discretion, provides for the payment of the Restricted Stock Units in cash (or partly in cash and partly in Shares) equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares that would otherwise be distributed to the Participant.
(e) Rights as Stockholder.   Except as provided in the Award Agreement in accordance with Section 10(c)(ii), a Participant shall have no rights to dividends or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to Restricted Stock Units until the Participant has satisfied all conditions of the Award Agreement and the requirements of Section 15 of the Plan and the Shares have been issued to the Participant.
C-13

(f) Change in Control.   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.
Section 11. Other Stock-Based or Cash-Based Awards.
(a) The Administrator is authorized to grant Awards to Participants in the form of Other Stock-Based Awards or Other Cash-Based Awards, as deemed by the Administrator to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan and as evidenced by an Award Agreement. The Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards, consistent with the terms of the Plan, at the date of grant or thereafter, including any Performance Goals and performance periods. Common Stock or other securities or property delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 11 shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, Shares, other Awards, notes or other property, as the Administrator shall determine, subject to any required corporate action.
(b) The prospective recipient of an Other Stock-Based Award or Other Cash-Based Award shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Other Stock-Based Awards and Other Cash-Based Awards shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.
Section 12. Change in Control.
The Administrator may provide in the applicable Award Agreement that an Award will vest on an accelerated basis upon the Participant’s termination of employment or service in connection with a Change in Control or upon the occurrence of any other event that the Administrator may set forth in the Award Agreement. If the Company is a party to an agreement that is reasonably likely to result in a Change in Control, such agreement may provide for: (i) the continuation of any Award by the Company, if the Company is the surviving corporation; (ii) the assumption of any Award by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary; (iii) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary of equivalent awards for any Award, provided, however, that any such substitution with respect to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall occur in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A; or (iv) settlement of any Award for the Change in Control Price (less, to the extent applicable, the per share exercise or grant price), or, if the per share exercise or grant price equals or exceeds the Change in Control Price or if the Administrator determines that Award cannot reasonably become vested pursuant to its terms, such Award shall terminate and be canceled without consideration. To the extent that Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units or other Awards settle in Shares in accordance with their terms upon a Change in Control, such Shares shall be entitled to receive as a result of the Change in Control transaction the same consideration as the Shares held by stockholders of the Company as a result of the Change in Control transaction. For purposes of this Section 12, “Change in Control Price” shall mean (A) the price per share of Common Stock paid to stockholders of the Company in the Change in Control transaction, or (B) the Fair Market Value of a Share upon a Change in Control, as determined by the Administrator. To the extent that the consideration paid in any such Change in Control transaction consists all or in part of securities or other non-cash consideration, the value of such securities or other non-cash consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Administrator.
Section 13. Amendment and Termination.
(a) The Board or the Committee may amend, alter or terminate the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, or termination shall be made that would impair the rights of a Participant under any Award theretofore granted without such Participant’s consent.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, approval of the Company’s stockholders shall be obtained to increase the aggregate Share limit described in Section 4.
C-14

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Administrator may modify, extend or renew outstanding Awards under the Plan, or accept the surrender of outstanding Awards (to the extent not already exercised) and grant new Awards in substitution of them (to the extent not already exercised).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no alteration, modification or termination of an Award will, without the prior written consent of the Participant, adversely alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Award already granted under the Plan.
Section 14. Unfunded Status of Plan.
The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made or Shares not yet transferred to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.
Section 15. Withholding Taxes.
Each Participant shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award first becomes includible in the gross income of such Participant for federal, state and/or local income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of, any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to the Award. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on the making of such payments or arrangements, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to such Participant. Whenever cash is to be paid pursuant to an Award granted hereunder, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. Whenever Shares are to be delivered pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient to satisfy any related federal, state and local taxes, domestic or foreign, to be withheld and applied to the tax obligations. With the approval of the Administrator, a Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery of Shares or by delivering already owned unrestricted shares of Common Stock, in each case, having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld or such other greater amount up to the maximum statutory rate under applicable law, as applicable to such Participant, if such other greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting treatment, as determined by the Administrator (including in connection with the effectiveness of FASB Accounting Standards Update 2016-09). Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined. Fractional share amounts shall be settled in cash. Such an election may be made with respect to all or any portion of the Shares to be delivered pursuant to an Award. The Company may also use any other method of obtaining the necessary payment or proceeds, as permitted by law, to satisfy its withholding obligation with respect to any Option or other Award.
Section 16. Non-United States Employees.
Without amending the Plan, the Administrator may grant Awards to eligible persons residing in non-United States jurisdictions on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan, including the terms of any award agreement or plan, adopted by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof to comply with, or take advantage of favorable tax or other treatment available under, the laws of any non-United States jurisdiction, as may in the judgment of the Administrator be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan and, in furtherance of such purposes the Administrator may make such modifications, amendments, procedures, subplans and the like as may be necessary or advisable to comply with provisions of laws in other countries or jurisdictions in which the Company or its Subsidiaries operates or has employees.
C-15

Section 17. Transfer of Awards.
No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, charge, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any Award or any agreement or commitment to do any of the foregoing (each, a “Transfer”) by any holder thereof in violation of the provisions of the Plan or an Award Agreement will be valid, except with the prior written consent of the Administrator, which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Administrator, and other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution. Any purported Transfer of an Award or any economic benefit or interest therein in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, and shall not create any obligation or liability of the Company, and any person purportedly acquiring any Award or any economic benefit or interest therein transferred in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall not be entitled to be recognized as a holder of such Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, an Option may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant or, during any period during which the Participant is under a legal disability, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.
Section 18. Continued Employment.
The adoption of the Plan shall not confer upon any Eligible Recipient any right to continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate thereof, as the case may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or an Affiliate thereof to terminate the employment or service of any of its Eligible Recipients at any time.
Section 19. Effective Date and Approval Date.
The Plan will be effective as of the date on which the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders (the “Effective Date”). The Plan will be unlimited in duration and, in the event of Plan termination, will remain in effect as long as any Shares awarded under it are outstanding; provided, however, that no Awards will be made under the Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of Effective Date.
Section 20. Code Section 409A.
The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under the Plan comply with Code Section 409A (or an available exemption therefrom) to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and be administered to be in accordance therewith. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Code Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Code Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided upon a “separation from service” to a Participant who is a “specified employee” shall be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following the Participant’s separation from service (or upon the Participant’s death, if earlier). In addition, for purposes of the Plan, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, which constitute deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Code Section 409A. Nothing contained in the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of any particular tax effect with respect to an Award. The Company does not guarantee that any Awards provided under the Plan will satisfy the provisions of Code Section 409A, and in no event will the Company be liable for any or all portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by a Participant on account of any non-compliance with Code Section 409A.
Section 21. Compensation Recovery Policy.
The Plan and all Awards issued hereunder shall be subject to any compensation recovery and/or recoupment policy adopted by the Company to comply with applicable law, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or to comport with good corporate governance practices, as such policies may be amended from time to time.
C-16

Section 22. Governing Law.
The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law of such state.
Section 23. Plan Document Controls.
The Plan and each Award Agreement constitute the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided that in the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and such Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall control.
C-17

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Subscription.   Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, immediately prior to the closing of the Transaction, Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase, and Industrea hereby agrees to issue and sell to Subscriber, upon the payment of the Base Purchase Price, the Subscribed Shares (such subscription and issuance the “Base Subscription”).
2. Backstop Shares.    Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, in the event that the gross cash proceeds available from the Trust Account (as defined below) at the Closing (taking into account all redemptions of shares of Class A Common Stock redeemed for cash in accordance with Industrea’s
D-1-1

certificate of incorporation) is less than the Argand Backstop Threshold Amount (such difference, if any, the “Excess Redemption Amount” which Excess Redemption Amount shall be certified in writing to Subscriber by a duly authorized officer of Industrea prior to the Closing), then Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase a number of Backstop Shares equal to the quotient of  (a) the Excess Redemption Amount, divided by (b) the Per Share Price, subject to a maximum subscription of 2,450,980 Backstop Shares (such subscription and issuance, together with the Base Subscription, the “Subscription”). For purposes of this Agreement, the “Argand Backstop Threshold Amount” shall mean $128,138,275, less the aggregate amount of any additional equity investment commitments (x) relating to one or more private placements to be consummated at or prior to the Closing received by Newco and/or Industrea and agreed to in writing by CPH in accordance with the Merger Agreement following the date hereof and prior to the Closing and (y) pursuant to any Rollover Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the UK Share Purchase Agreement and UK Put/Call Agreement (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) following the date hereof and prior to the Closing by any person other than BBCP Investors, LLC or its affiliates in excess of  $50,961,725 in the aggregate.
3. Closing.

b. At least five (5) Business Days before the anticipated Closing Date, Industrea shall deliver written notice to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) specifying (i) the anticipated Closing Date, (ii) the expected number of Backstop Shares to be purchased by Subscriber, if any, and the Backstop Purchase Price and (iii) wire instructions for delivery of the Purchase Price to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement between Industrea and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). At least two (2) Business Days after receiving the Closing Notice, Subscriber shall (i) deliver to Industrea such information as is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for Industrea to issue the Shares to Subscriber and (ii) deliver the Purchase Price in cash via wire transfer to the account of the Escrow Agent specified in the Closing Notice, to be held in escrow pending the Closing. The number of Backstop Shares set forth in the Closing Notice shall be adjusted at the Closing as necessary upon final determination (and certification to Subscriber) of the Excess Redemption Amount.
c. If this Subscription Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7 hereof, the Escrow Agreement will provide that the Escrow Agent shall automatically return to Subscriber the Purchase Price, without interest. For the purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or required by law or regulation to close in the City of New York, New York.
d. At the Closing, Industrea will issue and deliver to Subscriber the Shares in book entry or certificated form (at Industrea’s discretion), free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under this Subscription Agreement or state or federal securities laws), in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by Subscriber, as applicable, against (and concurrently with) release of the Purchase Price by the Escrow Agent to Industrea.
e. The Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver by each party of the conditions that, on the Closing Date:
(i) no suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale or trading in any jurisdiction, or initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, shall have occurred;

(iii) no governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and no governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition; and
(iv) the Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued by the Commission and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been initiated or threatened by the Commission.
f. Prior to or at the Closing, Subscriber shall deliver to Industrea and Newco a duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9.

Each of Industrea and Newco (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, (ii) has the requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties, to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement, and (iii) is duly licensed or qualified to conduct its business and, if applicable, is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction (other than its jurisdiction of incorporation) in which the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties or assets requires such license or qualification, except, with respect to the foregoing clause (iii), where the failure to be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have an Industrea Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, an “Industrea Material Adverse Effect” means an event, change, development, occurrence, condition or effect with respect to Industrea that, individually or in the aggregate, has a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of Industrea, taken as a whole.

c. This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Industrea and Newco, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by Subscriber, this Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Industrea and Newco, enforceable against Industrea and Newco in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.
d. The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Shares and the compliance by Industrea and Newco with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Industrea or Newco pursuant to the terms of  (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which Industrea or Newco is a party or by which Industrea or Newco is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Industrea or Newco is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of Industrea or Newco; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over Industrea or Newco or any of their properties that, in the case of

Industrea and Newco are not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization (including The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”)) or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares), other than (i) the filing with the Commission of the Registration Statement, (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) the filing of a Notice of Exempt Offering of Securities on Form D with the Commission under Regulation D of the Securities Act (“Regulation D”), (iv) the filings required in accordance with Section 9(b) of this Subscription Agreement, (v) those required by Nasdaq, including with respect to obtaining shareholder approval, (vi) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Merger Agreement, and (vii) the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have an Industrea Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on Industrea’s or Newco’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Shares.
f. As of the date hereof, the authorized share capital of Industrea consists of 200,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, “Common Stock”) and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

As of the date hereof, other than with respect to Newco, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub and Industrea Merger Sub, Industrea has no subsidiaries and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated. There are not any stockholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which Industrea or Newco is a party or by which either is bound relating to the voting of any Equity Interests, other than (A) the letter agreements entered into by Industrea in connection with Industrea’s initial public offering on August 1, 2017 pursuant to which Industrea Alexandria LLC and Industrea’s executive officers and independent directors agreed to vote in favor of any proposed Business Combination (as defined therein), which includes the Transaction, and (B) as contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
g. Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have an Industrea Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on Industrea’s or Newco’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Shares, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) suit, action, proceeding or arbitration before a governmental authority or arbitrator pending, or, to the knowledge of Industrea or Newco, threatened against Industrea or Newco or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental authority or arbitrator outstanding against Industrea or Newco.

h. In making its decision to purchase the Shares, Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigation made by Subscriber.

Subscriber represents and agrees that Subscriber and Subscriber’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as Subscriber and such undersigned’s professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that neither B. Riley FBR, Inc., acting as placement agent to Industrea (the “Placement Agent”), nor any affiliate of the Placement Agent has provided Subscriber with any information or advice with respect to the Shares nor is such information or advice necessary or desired. Neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates has made or makes any representation as to Industrea or the quality of the Shares and the Placement Agent and any affiliate may have acquired non-public information with respect to Industrea which Subscriber agrees need not be provided to it. In connection with the issuance of the Shares to Subscriber, neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates has acted as a financial advisor or fiduciary to Subscriber.
i.

D-1-6

k. Subscriber has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Shares and determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in Industrea.

n. Subscriber and its affiliates do not have, and during the 30-day period immediately prior hereto such Subscriber and its affiliates have not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or short sale positions with respect to the securities of Industrea. In addition, Subscriber shall comply with all applicable provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Act.
o. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the certificate or book-entry position representing the Shares will bear or reflect, as applicable, a legend substantially similar to the following:
“THIS SECURITY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF INDUSTREA THAT (A) THIS SECURITY MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) PURSUANT TO ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, (II) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (III) TO INDUSTREA, IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (III) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL NOTIFY ANY SUBSEQUENT PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE. INDUSTREA MAY REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATIONS AND/OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION IT REASONABLY REQUIRES TO CONFIRM THE SECURITIES ACT EXEMPTION FOR SUCH TRANSACTION.”
6. Registration Rights.
a. In connection with the Transaction, Newco will file with the Commission the Registration Statement, which will register issuance of shares of Newco Common Stock in exchange for all outstanding shares of common stock of Industrea (including the Shares) at the closing of the Transaction.
D-1-7

b. In the event that the Registration Statement, at the time it becomes effective, does not include the shares of Newco Common Stock to be issued in exchange for the Shares (the “Newco Exchanged Shares”), Industrea and Newco agree that, within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), Newco will use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission a registration statement registering the resale of the Newco Exchanged Shares (the “Post-Closing Registration Statement”), and Newco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Post-Closing Registration Statement declared effective within sixty (60) days of the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one-hundred and twenty (120) days after the Filing Deadline if the Post-Closing Registration Statement is “reviewed” by, and Newco receives comments from, the Commission; provided, however, that Newco’s obligations to include the Newco Exchanged Shares in the Post-Closing Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to Newco such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of Newco held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Shares as shall be reasonably requested by Newco to effect the registration of the Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as Newco may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Newco will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Post-Closing Registration Statement until the earlier of  (a) the date on which such securities may be resold without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, (b) the date on which Subscriber has notified Industrea that such registrable securities have actually been sold and (c) the date which is three years after the Closing.
c. Newco shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Post-Closing Registration Statement), the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each of them, each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, agents, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Post-Closing Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Post-Closing Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by Newco of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 6, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Newco by Subscriber expressly for use therein. Newco shall notify Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6 of which Newco is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Newco Exchanged Shares by Subscriber.
d. Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly with any other subscriber, indemnify and hold harmless Newco, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls Newco (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Post-Closing Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Post-Closing Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
D-1-8

statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Newco by Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
e. Subscriber shall not execute any short sales or engage in other hedging transactions of any kind with respect to securities of Newco during the period from the date of the Closing through the date that is 45 consecutive days thereafter.
7. Termination.   This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earlier to occur of  (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) the mutual written agreement of Industrea, Newco and Subscriber to terminate this Subscription Agreement; provided, that this Subscription Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this clause (b) without CPH’s prior written consent, or (c) if, on the Closing Date of the Transaction, any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement have not been satisfied as of the time required hereunder to be so satisfied or waived by the party entitled to grant such waiver and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. Industrea shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Merger Agreement promptly after the termination thereof.
8. Trust Account Waiver.   Subscriber acknowledges that Industrea is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving Industrea and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in Industrea’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 26, 2017 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Industrea’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of Industrea’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of Industrea, its public stockholders and the underwriters of Industrea’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to Industrea to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of Industrea entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its officers, directors and affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the foregoing waiver shall not preclude Subscriber (or any of its affiliates) from redeeming any shares of Class A Common Stock included in the units sold in Industrea’s initial public offering held by Subscriber (or any of its affiliates) for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account in connection with the Transaction or enforcing its rights in respect thereof.

Subscriber is not an entity formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.
D-2-5

e. Subscriber understands that the Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act. Subscriber understands that the Shares may not be resold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by Subscriber absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, except (i) to Industrea, or (ii) pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and, in each of cases (i) and (ii), in accordance with any applicable securities laws of the states and other jurisdictions of the United States, and that any certificates or book-entry position representing the Shares shall contain a legend to such effect. Subscriber understands and agrees that the Shares will be subject to transfer restrictions and, as a result of these transfer restrictions, Subscriber may not be able to readily resell the Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time. Subscriber understands that it has been advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Shares.
f. Subscriber understands and agrees that Subscriber is purchasing the Shares directly from Industrea. Subscriber further acknowledges that there have not been, and Subscriber is not relying on, any representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to Subscriber by Industrea, any other party to the Transaction or any other person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Industrea included in this Subscription Agreement.
g. Subscriber’s acquisition and holding of the Shares will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any applicable similar law.
h. In making its decision to purchase the Shares, Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigation made by Subscriber. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber has received such information as Subscriber deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares, including with respect to Industrea and the Transaction (including the company to be acquired in the Transaction and its respective subsidiaries). Subscriber represents and agrees that Subscriber and Subscriber’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as Subscriber and such undersigned’s professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that neither B. Riley FBR, Inc., acting as placement agent to Industrea (the “Placement Agent”), nor any affiliate of the Placement Agent has provided Subscriber with any information or advice with respect to the Shares nor is such information or advice necessary or desired. Neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates has made or makes any representation as to Industrea or the quality of the Shares and the Placement Agent and any affiliate may have acquired non-public information with respect to Industrea which Subscriber agrees need not be provided to it. In connection with the issuance of the Shares to Subscriber, neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates has acted as a financial advisor or fiduciary to Subscriber.
i. Subscriber became aware of this offering of the Shares solely by means of direct contact between Subscriber and Industrea or by means of contact from the Placement Agent, and the Shares were offered to Subscriber solely by direct contact between Subscriber and Industrea or by contact between Subscriber and the Placement Agent. Subscriber did not become aware of this offering of the Shares, nor were the Shares offered to Subscriber, by any other means. Subscriber acknowledges that Industrea represents and warrants that the Shares (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.
j. Subscriber acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Shares. Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares, and Subscriber has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as Subscriber has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.
D-2-6

k. Subscriber has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Shares and determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in Industrea. Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.
l. Subscriber understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.
m. Subscriber is not (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (iii) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank. Subscriber agrees to provide law enforcement agencies, if requested thereby, such records as required by applicable law, provided that Subscriber is permitted to do so under applicable law. Subscriber represents that if it is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), that Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. Subscriber also represents that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. Subscriber further represents and warrants that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by Subscriber and used to purchase the Shares were legally derived.
n. Subscriber and its affiliates do not have, and during the 30-day period immediately prior hereto such Subscriber and its affiliates have not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or short sale positions with respect to the securities of Industrea. In addition, Subscriber shall comply with all applicable provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Act.
o. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the certificate or book-entry position representing the Shares will bear or reflect, as applicable, a legend substantially similar to the following:
“THIS SECURITY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF INDUSTREA THAT (A) THIS SECURITY MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) PURSUANT TO ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, (II) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (III) TO INDUSTREA, IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (III) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL NOTIFY ANY SUBSEQUENT PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE. INDUSTREA MAY REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATIONS AND/OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION IT REASONABLY REQUIRES TO CONFIRM THE SECURITIES ACT EXEMPTION FOR SUCH TRANSACTION.”
6. Registration Rights.
a. In connection with the Transaction, Newco will file with the Commission the Registration Statement, which will register issuance of shares of Newco Common Stock in exchange for all outstanding shares of common stock of Industrea (including the Shares) at the closing of the Transaction.
D-2-7

b. In the event that the Registration Statement, at the time it becomes effective, does not include the shares of Newco Common Stock to be issued in exchange for the Shares (the “Newco Exchanged Shares”), Industrea and Newco agree that, within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), Newco will use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission a registration statement registering the resale of the Newco Exchanged Shares (the “Post-Closing Registration Statement”), and Newco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Post-Closing Registration Statement declared effective within sixty (60) days of the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one-hundred and twenty (120) days after the Filing Deadline if the Post-Closing Registration Statement is “reviewed” by, and Newco receives comments from, the Commission; provided, however, that Newco’s obligations to include the Newco Exchanged Shares in the Post-Closing Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to Newco such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of Newco held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Shares as shall be reasonably requested by Newco to effect the registration of the Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as Newco may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Newco will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Post-Closing Registration Statement until the earlier of  (a) the date on which such securities may be resold without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, (b) the date on which Subscriber has notified Industrea that such registrable securities have actually been sold and (c) the date which is three years after the Closing.
c. Newco shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Post-Closing Registration Statement), the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each of them, each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, agents, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Post-Closing Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Post-Closing Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by Newco of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 6, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Newco by Subscriber expressly for use therein. Newco shall notify Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6 of which Newco is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Newco Exchanged Shares by Subscriber.
d. Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly with any other subscriber, indemnify and hold harmless Newco, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls Newco (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Post-Closing Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Post-Closing Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
D-2-8

statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Newco by Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
e. Subscriber shall not execute any short sales or engage in other hedging transactions of any kind with respect to securities of Newco during the period from the date of the Closing through the date that is 45 consecutive days thereafter.
7. Termination.   This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earlier to occur of  (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) the mutual written agreement of Industrea, Newco and Subscriber to terminate this Subscription Agreement; provided, that this Subscription Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this clause (b) without CPH’s prior written consent, or (c) if, on the Closing Date of the Transaction, any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement have not been satisfied as of the time required hereunder to be so satisfied or waived by the party entitled to grant such waiver and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. Industrea shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Merger Agreement promptly after the termination thereof.
8. Trust Account Waiver.   Subscriber acknowledges that Industrea is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving Industrea and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in Industrea’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 26, 2017 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Industrea’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of Industrea’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of Industrea, its public stockholders and the underwriters of Industrea’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to Industrea to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of Industrea entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its officers, directors and affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the foregoing waiver shall not preclude Subscriber (or any of its affiliates) from redeeming any shares of Class A Common Stock included in the units sold in Industrea’s initial public offering held by Subscriber (or any of its affiliates) for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account in connection with the Transaction or enforcing its rights in respect thereof.

c. Subscriber acknowledges that Industrea and others (including CPH) will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement.

Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to Industrea hereunder may be transferred or assigned.
f. All the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.
g. Industrea may request from Subscriber such additional information as Industrea may deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of Subscriber to acquire the Shares, and Subscriber shall provide such information as may be reasonably requested, to the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures.
h. This Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought.
i.

j. This Subscription Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, an “Industrea Material Adverse Effect” means an event, change, development, occurrence, condition or effect with respect to Industrea that, individually or in the aggregate, has a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of Industrea or Newco, taken as a whole.

c. This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Industrea and Newco, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by Subscriber, this Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Industrea and Newco, enforceable against Industrea and Newco in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.
D-3-3

d. The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Shares and the compliance by Industrea and Newco with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will be done in accordance with the rules and regulations of Nasdaq (as defined below) and will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Industrea or Newco pursuant to the terms of: (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which Industrea or Newco is a party or by which Industrea or Newco is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Industrea or Newco is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of Industrea or Newco; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over Industrea or Newco or any of their properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have an Industrea Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on Industrea’s or Newco’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the valid issuance and sale of the Shares.
e. Industrea and Newco are not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization (including The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”)) or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares), other than: (i) filing the Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware; (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws; (iii) the filing of a Notice of Exempt Offering of Securities on Form D with the Commission pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act (“Regulation D”); (iv) the filings required in accordance with Section 9(b) of this Subscription Agreement; (v) those required by Nasdaq, including with respect to obtaining shareholder approval; (vi) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Merger Agreement; and (vii) the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have an Industrea Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on Industrea’s or Newco’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the valid issuance and sale of the Shares.
f. As of the date hereof, the authorized share capital of Industrea consists of 200,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, “Common Stock”), and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

g. Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have an Industrea Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on Industrea’s or Newco’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Shares, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) suit, action, proceeding or arbitration before a governmental authority or arbitrator pending, or, to the knowledge of Industrea or Newco, threatened against Industrea or Newco or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental authority or arbitrator outstanding against Industrea or Newco.
h. The issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “INDU.” There is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of Industrea, threatened against Industrea by Nasdaq or the Commission with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister the shares of Class A Common Stock or prohibit or terminate the listing of the shares of Class A Common Stock on Nasdaq.

a. Subscriber (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and (ii) has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.
b. This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Subscriber, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by Industrea and Newco, this Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Subscriber, enforceable against Subscriber in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.
c. The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the purchase of the Shares and the compliance by Subscriber with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Subscriber or the funds and/or accounts represented by Subscriber that will purchase the Shares (collectively, the “Purchasing Funds”) pursuant to the terms of: (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which Subscriber is a party or by which
D-3-5

Subscriber is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Subscriber is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of Subscriber; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over Subscriber or any of its properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have a Subscriber Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, a “Subscriber Material Adverse Effect” means an event, change, development, occurrence, condition or effect with respect to Subscriber that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Subscriber’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the purchase of the Shares.
d. Each of the Purchasing Funds (i) is an institutional “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act) satisfying the applicable requirements set forth on Schedule A, (ii) is acquiring the Shares only for its own account and not for the account of others, and (iii) is not acquiring the Shares with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act (and shall provide the requested information on Annex B following the signature page hereto). Subscriber is not an entity formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.
e. Subscriber understands that the Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Shares and any shares of Class A Common Stock into which the Shares may be converted (the “Conversion Shares”) have not been registered under the Securities Act. Subscriber understands that the Shares and the Conversion Shares may not be resold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by Subscriber absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, except (i) to Newco, or (ii) pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and, in each of cases (i) and (ii), in accordance with any applicable securities laws of the states and other jurisdictions of the United States, and that any certificates or book-entry position representing the Shares and the Conversion Shares shall contain a legend to such effect. Subscriber understands and agrees that the Shares and the Conversion Shares will be subject to transfer restrictions and, as a result of these transfer restrictions, Subscriber may not be able to readily resell the Shares or the Conversion Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Shares and the Conversion Shares for an indefinite period of time. Subscriber understands that it has been advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Shares or the Conversion Shares.
f. Subscriber understands and agrees that each of the Purchasing Funds is purchasing the Shares directly from Newco. Subscriber further acknowledges that there have not been, and Subscriber is not relying on, any representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to Subscriber by Newco, any other party to the Transaction or any other person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Newco included in this Subscription Agreement.
g. Each of the Purchasing Funds’ acquisition and holding of the Shares or the Conversion Shares will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any applicable similar law.
h. In making its decision to enter into this Subscription Agreement, Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigation made by Subscriber. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber has received such information as Subscriber deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares, including with respect to Newco and the Transaction (including the company to be acquired in the Transaction and its respective subsidiaries). Subscriber represents and agrees that Subscriber and Subscriber’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as Subscriber and such undersigned’s professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that neither B. Riley FBR, Inc., acting as placement agent to Industrea and Newco (the “Placement Agent”), nor any affiliate of the Placement Agent has provided Subscriber with any information or advice with respect to the
D-3-6

Shares nor is such information or advice necessary or desired. Neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates has made or makes any representation as to Newco or the quality of the Shares and the Placement Agent and any affiliate may have acquired non-public information with respect to Newco which Subscriber agrees need not be provided to it. In connection with the issuance of the Shares to Subscriber, neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates has acted as a financial advisor or fiduciary to Subscriber.
i. Subscriber became aware of this offering of the Shares solely by means of direct contact between Subscriber and Industrea and Newco or by means of contact from the Placement Agent, and the Shares were offered to Subscriber solely by direct contact between Subscriber and Industrea and Newco or by contact between Subscriber and the Placement Agent. Subscriber did not become aware of this offering of the Shares, nor were the Shares offered to Subscriber, by any other means. Subscriber acknowledges that Newco represents and warrants that the Shares (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act or any state securities laws.
j. Subscriber acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Shares. Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares, and Subscriber has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as Subscriber has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.
k. Subscriber has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Shares and determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in Newco. Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.
l. Subscriber understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.
m. Neither Subscriber nor any of the Purchasing Funds is (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (iii) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank. Subscriber agrees to provide law enforcement agencies, if requested thereby, such records as required by applicable law, provided that Subscriber is permitted to do so under applicable law. Subscriber represents that if it is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), that Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. Subscriber also represents that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. Subscriber further represents and warrants that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Purchasing Funds and used to purchase the Shares were legally derived.
n. Subscriber and its affiliates do not have, and during the 30-day period immediately prior hereto such Subscriber and its affiliates have not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or short sale positions with respect to the securities of Newco. In addition, the Subscriber shall comply with all applicable provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Act.
D-3-7

o. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the certificate or book-entry position representing the Shares will bear or reflect, as applicable, a legend substantially similar to the following:
“THIS SECURITY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF CONCRETE PUMPING HOLDINGS ACQUISITION CORP. THAT (A) THIS SECURITY MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) PURSUANT TO ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, (II) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (III) TO CONCRETE PUMPING HOLDINGS ACQUISITION CORP., IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (III) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL NOTIFY ANY SUBSEQUENT PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE. CONCRETE PUMPING HOLDINGS ACQUISITION CORP. MAY REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATIONS AND/OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION IT REASONABLY REQUIRES TO CONFIRM THE SECURITIES ACT EXEMPTION FOR SUCH TRANSACTION.”
6. Registration Rights.
a. Newco agrees that, within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), Newco will, at its sole cost and expense, file with the Commission a registration statement (the “Post-Closing Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the Conversion Shares, and Newco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Post-Closing Registration Statement declared effective within sixty (60) days after the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one hundred twenty (120) days after the Filing Deadline if the Post-Closing Registration Statement is “reviewed” by, and Newco receives comments from, the Commission; provided, however, that Newco’s obligations to include the Conversion Shares in the Post-Closing Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to Newco such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of Newco held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Conversion Shares as shall be reasonably requested by Newco to effect the registration of the Conversion Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as Newco may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Newco will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Post-Closing Registration Statement until the earlier of  (a) the date on which such securities may be resold without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and (b) the date on which Subscriber has notified Newco that all such registrable securities have actually been sold.
b. If at any time Newco proposes to file with the Commission a registration statement or prospectus supplement relating to an underwritten public offering for the account of selling stockholders who have registration rights under the Stockholders Agreement (as defined below), then Newco shall provide Subscriber with at least twenty (20) days advance written notice of such registration or filing and offer to include in such underwritten offering such number of Conversion Shares as may be requested to be included therein by Subscriber in writing within five (5) days of Subscriber’s receipt of such notice. If the underwriter(s) for any such offering advise Newco that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of securities that may be included in such offering, the number of Conversion Shares to be so included may be reduced on the terms set forth in the Stockholders Agreement. Newco shall not be required to include Conversion Shares in more than three (3) underwritten public offerings pursuant to this Section 6(b); provided that any offering in which Conversion Shares were not included (due to the previous sentence or otherwise) or in which Subscriber elected not to participate shall not count towards this limitation. For purposes of this
D-3-8

Section 6(b), “Stockholders Agreement” means the Stockholders Agreement to be entered into at the Closing among Newco, Industrea and the parties signatory thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber shall not have any rights to include its Conversion Shares in the underwritten offering that PGP Investors, LLC and its affiliates (“Peninsula”) are entitled to cause the Company to effect with respect to the shares of Common Stock, if any, to be issued to Peninsula in excess of 882,353 shares, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
c. Newco shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Post-Closing Registration Statement), the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each of them, each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, agents, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Post-Closing Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Post-Closing Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by Newco of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 6, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Newco by Subscriber expressly for use therein. Newco shall notify Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6 of which Newco is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares by Subscriber.
d. Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly with any other subscriber, indemnify and hold harmless Newco, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls Newco (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Post-Closing Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Post-Closing Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Newco by Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares or Conversion Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
e. Subscriber shall not execute any short sales or engage in other hedging transactions of any kind with respect to securities of Newco during the period from the date of the Closing through the date that is 45 consecutive days thereafter.
7. Termination.   This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earlier to occur of  (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) the mutual written agreement of Industrea, Newco and Subscriber to terminate this Subscription Agreement; provided, that this Subscription
D-3-9

Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this clause (b) without CPH’s prior written consent, or (c) if, on the Closing Date of the Transaction, any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement have not been satisfied as of the time required hereunder to be so satisfied or waived by the party entitled to grant such waiver and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. Newco shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Merger Agreement promptly after the termination thereof.
8. Trust Account Waiver.   Subscriber acknowledges that Industrea is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving Industrea and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in Industrea’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 26, 2017 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Industrea’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of Industrea’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of Industrea, its public stockholders and the underwriters of Industrea’s initial public offering.

ANNEX A
Term Sheet
INDUSTREA ACQUISITION CORP.
SUMMARY OF PROPOSED TERMS FOR
ZERO-DIVIDEND CONVERTIBLE PERPETUAL PREFERRED STOCK
This Term Sheet outlines the principal terms with respect to a proposed private sale by Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), of Series A Zero-Dividend Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock of the Company to [ ] (“Investor”) to occur concurrently with the Company’s proposed business combination with Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (“CPH”). This Term Sheet is intended solely as a basis for further discussion and is not intended to be and does not constitute a legally binding obligation.
Issuer Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
Aggregate Offering Amount $25,000,000 (the “Investment Amount”).
Security Offered The Company’s Series A Zero-Dividend Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).
Number of Shares Offered 2,450,980 shares
Issue Date Concurrent with the closing of the Business Combination (described below).
Dividends None.
Liquidation Preference
The liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock will be (a) the Investment Amount plus (b) an additional cumulative amount that will accrue at an annual rate of 7.0% (as may be adjusted as described in “Covenants” below, the “Additional Liquidation Preference Rate”) beginning on the Issue Date through the date of calculation, expressed as a per-share amount (the “Liquidation Preference”). In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or any consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, each holder of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference per share with respect to each share of Preferred Stock held by such holder.
The Preferred Stock will rank senior in priority and will have a senior liquidation preference to the Common Stock and any other existing class of equity securities of the Company, and no new class of preferred stock bearing a liquidation preference and/or rights to dividends pari passu with, or senior to, the Preferred Stock may be created without the consent of the holders of the Preferred Stock.
Conversion Ratio; Anti-Dilution
The Preferred Stock shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a 1:1 conversion ratio (as may be adjusted as described below, the “Conversion Ratio”).
The Conversion Ratio (and the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted (the “Conversion Shares”)) will be equitably adjusted upon the occurrence of standard anti-dilution events, including:

any stock split or subdivision of the Common Stock (in which case the number of Conversion Shares will be increased proportionately and the Conversion Ratio decreased proportionately); and
D-3-16


any reverse stock split or consolidation of the Common Stock (in which case the number of Conversion Shares will be decreased proportionately and the Conversion Ratio increased proportionately).
Conversion at the Option of the Holder Each holder of Preferred Stock will have the right to convert, at its option, all of the shares of Preferred Stock that it holds into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Ratio at any time on or following the date that is six calendar months following the Issue Date. The total number of shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted will be determined by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted by (b) the Conversion Ratio (as adjusted).
Conversion at the Option of the Company The Company shall, at its option, have the right to cause the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock at any time following such time as the VWAP per share of the Common Stock is equal or greater than $13.00 (the “Mandatory Conversion Threshold”) for 30 consecutive days. The total number of shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted will be determined by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted by (y) the Conversion Ratio (as adjusted). The Mandatory Conversion Threshold will be equitably adjusted in the event of a stock split, subdivision or similar event affecting the Common Stock.
Redemption At any time on or following the date that is four years following the Issue Date, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or part of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to the then-applicable Liquidation Preference. For the avoidance of doubt, such redemption shall be effectuated via written notice at least 15 business days prior to the redemption date, and in the interim the holders of the Preferred Stock shall have the option, but not the obligation, to convert some or all of their shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock prior to the redemption date.
Covenants No financial covenants. In the event that the Company incurs any new debt (other than borrowings under the term loan and revolving credit facilities) that ranks junior to the term loan and revolving credit facilities (“Junior Debt”), then to the extent that, after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Junior Debt, the pro forma Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the term loan credit agreement) shall exceed 5x EBITDA, the Additional Liquidation Preference Rate (a) shall be increased by 2.0% beginning on the first day of the first calendar quarter following the incurrence of such additional Junior Debt and (b) thereafter, shall be decreased by 2.0% beginning on the first day of the first calendar quarter following such time as the pro forma Total Leverage Ratio no longer exceeds 5x EBITDA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will be permitted to draw on the revolving credit facility and any incremental facilities permitted under the term loan credit agreement to the fullest extent permitted by those documents regardless of the impact that such additional borrowings may have on the Total Leverage Ratio.
D-3-17

Voting Rights Except as otherwise required by law, the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, voting as a class, shall be required to approve any change or alteration in the rights, preferences or privileges of the Preferred Stock. In addition, holders of Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class, upon any matter submitted to the common stockholders for a vote and shall have that number of votes per share as is equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock held by such holder could be converted on the record date established for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, holders of Preferred Stock shall not have the right to vote for the election of any members of the Board of Directors of the Company.
Subscription Rights Holders of Preferred Stock shall have the right to purchase equity securities that are issued by the Company in any future capital raising transaction that occurs after the Issue Date to the extent necessary in order to maintain their then-existing pro rata ownership percentage in the Company on a fully diluted, as-converted basis.
Transfers Holders of Preferred Stock may not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Preferred Stock (including any transfer of all or a portion of the beneficial ownership of, or economic interest in, the Preferred Stock through derivative instruments or other similar arrangements) for a period of six months following the Issue Date, subject to customary exceptions (e.g. transfers to affiliate transfers, pledges, etc.) and with prior written notice to the Company; provided that, if the Preferred Stock is converted into Common Stock during such six-month period pursuant to “Conversion at the Option of the Company” above, the Conversion Shares issued upon such conversion shall not be subject to such transfer restriction. Thereafter, transfers may be permitted with prior written notice to the Company subject to compliance with all U.S. federal and other securities laws.
Board of Directors For so long as the holders of Preferred Stock collectively beneficially own an aggregate of 5% or more of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted, as-converted basis, they collectively shall be entitled to designate one individual to serve as a non-voting observer of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board Observer”). The holders shall be responsible for all costs, expenses and risks related to the designation and service of the Board Observer.
Subscription Agreement The purchase of shares of Preferred Stock (the “Investment”) shall be made pursuant to a Subscription Agreement which shall contain, among other things, representations and warranties of the Company and the Investor, and appropriate conditions to closing (including as outlined below).
Signing The Investor and the Company will enter into the Subscription Agreement with respect to the Investment concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement by and among the Company, CPH, Merger Sub and a representative of the current owners of CPH (the “Merger Agreement”), with respect to the Company’s potential business combination with CPH pursuant to which a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) will merge with and into CPH with CPH being the surviving corporation (the “Business Combination”).
D-3-18

Closing The closing of the Investment (“Closing”) will occur on the closing date of the Business Combination. The Company shall provide Investor at least five (5) days advance written notice of the proposed closing date (the “Closing Notice”). Within two (2) business days after receiving the Closing Notice, the Investor shall (a) deliver to the Company such information as is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the Company to issue shares of Preferred Stock to the Investor (or its designees) and (b) wire the purchase price for the Investment to an escrow account established at the Company’s transfer agent, as specified in the Closing Notice, to be released to the Company upon the closing of the Business Combination.
Closing Conditions The Closing will be subject to the following conditions: (i) customary bring down of the representations and warranties of the Investor; (ii) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Business Combination set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the approval of the Company’s stockholders, shall have been satisfied or waived; (iii) the Business Combination shall have been, or substantially concurrently with the Investment, shall be, consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement; and (iv) no governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the Investment illegal or otherwise preventing or prohibiting consummation of the Investment.
Use Of Proceeds Proceeds from the Investment will be used to fund the purchase price under the Merger Agreement and for general working capital purposes as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.
Registration Rights The Company will be obligated to file a resale “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not available for use by the Company, another applicable registration form) (the “Registration Statement”) within 90 days of the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”) covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 60 days of the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided that the Effectiveness Deadline will be extended to 120 days after the Filing Deadline if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and the Company receives comments from, the SEC. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Registration Statement until all Conversion Shares cease to be registrable securities or such shorter period upon which the holders have notified the Company that such Conversion Shares have actually been sold. In addition, the holders will be entitled to “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the Conversion Shares on all registration statements of the Company that are filed on Form S-1, Form S-3 or similar forms with respect to any underwritten secondary offering of Common Stock as well as the ability to participate in such underwritten offering, subject to the right of the Company and the underwriters in their discretion to reduce the number of shares proposed to be registered by the holders on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders shall not have any rights to participate in the registration statement that Peninsula Pacific is entitled to cause the Company to file with respect to the shares of Common Stock to be issued to Peninsula Pacific in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
D-3-19

Termination Date The Subscription Agreement will terminate upon the earlier to occur of: (i) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; (ii) upon the mutual written agreement of the Company and the Investor; or (iii) if any of the closing conditions in the Subscription Agreement are not satisfied prior to Closing and, as a result thereof, the Investment is not consummated. The Company will notify the Investor of the termination of the Merger Agreement promptly after its termination.

The Newco Common Shares described in the preceding clause (a) and, in the case of Peninsula, the Additional Newco Common Shares described in the preceding clause (b) (collectively, the “Issued Newco Shares”) will be delivered by Newco to the applicable Rollover Holders in book entry form, free and clear of any Liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under the Stockholders Agreement or state or federal securities laws), in the name of each such Rollover Holder (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by such Rollover Holder, as applicable.
For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth herein, no Rollover Holder shall be entitled to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration for such Rollover Holder’s Rollover Shares.
In exchange for the contribution of the Rollover Holders’ Rollover Shares to Newco, in addition to the Issued Newco Shares described above, each Rollover Holder shall have the right to receive: (A) such Rollover Holder’s Fully-Diluted Percentage in respect of its Rollover Shares of any positive Adjustment Amount payable in cash in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Merger Agreement, (B) such Rollover Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of its Rollover Shares of any distributions of Escrow Funds by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and (C) such Rollover Holder’s portion in respect of its Rollover Shares of any Tax Refunds in accordance with Section 8.6(g) of the Merger Agreement.

Upon the written request of Peninsula delivered to Newco and Industrea at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the Closing, Industrea and Newco agree to take all corporate action necessary prior to Closing to have appointed to the Board of Directors of Newco (the “Board”), effective upon the Closing: (i) one individual designated by Peninsula to be included as a director in Class I (as described in Newco’s certificate of incorporation) if Peninsula beneficially owns more than five percent (5%) but not more than fifteen percent (15%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco Common Shares as of the Closing, (ii) two individuals designated by Peninsula, one to be included as a director in Class I and one to be included as a director in Class II (as described in Newco’s certificate of incorporation), if Peninsula beneficially owns more than fifteen percent (15%) but not more than twenty five percent (25%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco Common Shares as of the Closing, or (iii) three individuals designated by Peninsula, one to be included as a director in Class I, one to be included as a director in Class II and one to be included as a director in Class III (as described in Newco’s certificate of incorporation), if Peninsula beneficially owns more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco
E-1-2

Common Shares as of the Closing. Newco shall increase the number of directors of the Board effective as of the Closing as necessary to include the individuals designated by Peninsula pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. The individuals designated by Peninsula pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall meet the conditions set forth in Section 4.4 of the Stockholders Agreement shall serve until the earlier of  (A) his or her death, disability, resignation or removal and (B) his or her respective successor (which individual shall meet the conditions set forth in Section 4.4. of the Stockholders Agreement) is duly elected and qualified and shall be deemed a “Peninsula Director” and a “Peninsula Nominee.”
The consummation of the transactions described herein is subject to and conditioned upon (i) all conditions to the Mergers set forth in Article IX of the Merger Agreement having been satisfied not later than the time of the Rollover Closing or, to the extent not satisfied, having been waived by the Person or Persons entitled to waive any such condition, (ii) no suspension of the qualification of the Issued Newco Shares issued pursuant hereto for offering or sale or trading in any jurisdiction, or initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, shall have occurred, (iii) the concurrent funding of the Debt Financing (in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letters) and the Equity Financing (in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreements). This Agreement and the parties rights and obligations hereunder will automatically terminate and become null and void, and no party shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, upon the termination of the Merger Agreement.
Each Rollover Holder (solely as to itself and not on behalf of any other Rollover Holder) hereby (i) makes the representations and warranties, set forth in Annex A hereto, and (ii) agrees that it will become a party to, and be bound by, the Stockholders Agreement at the Rollover Closing in accordance with its terms.
Each of Newco and Industrea hereby (i) makes the representations and warranties set forth in Annex B hereto, and (ii) agrees that it will become a party to, and be bound by, the Stockholders Agreement at the Rollover Closing in accordance with its terms.

The contribution of the Rollover Shares by each Rollover Holder to Newco in exchange for the consideration set forth herein (taken together with taken together with the Industrea Merger, the Argand Equity Investment and any other relevant contributions to Newco) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the subsequent contribution of the Rollover Shares by Newco to Concrete Parent, are each intended to be treated as contributions governed by Section 351 of the Code, and each of Newco and the Rollover Holders shall report such transactions consistently with such intent. From time to time after the Rollover Closing, without further consideration, if requested by a Rollover Holder in writing, Newco shall promptly provide such Rollover Holder with a duly executed statement pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h) informing such Rollover Holder whether or not the Issued Newco Shares issued and delivered to such Rollover Holder constitute “United States real property interests” (and shall comply with the related notice requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h)(2)).
The provisions of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior written or oral agreements or understandings of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person, except as otherwise set forth in the immediately following sentence. This Agreement may be enforced by the Company to cause the consummation of the contribution of the Rollover Shares and the issuance and delivery of the Issued Newco Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and, accordingly, the Company shall be a third party beneficiary hereof and entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the parties hereto.
E-1-3

This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or via email as a portable document format (.pdf) and in any number of counterparts, and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, but shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties.
This Agreement, or any term or condition hereof, may be modified or waived only by a separate writing signed by each of the parties hereto. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of the Company if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces the number of Rollover Shares, or (ii) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the Closing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially impair or delay the Closing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Closing) or (y) adversely affect the ability of Newco or Industrea to enforce its rights against under this Agreement or any of the other definitive agreements with respect thereto. Each of the parties hereto waives any right it may have to trial by jury in respect of any litigation based on, arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or any course of conduct, course of dealing, verbal or written statement or action of any party hereto.
This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.
The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, drafting, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.
Each Rollover Holder acknowledges that Industrea is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving Industrea and one or more businesses or assets. Rollover Holder further acknowledges that, as described in Industrea’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 26, 2017 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Industrea’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of Industrea’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of Industrea, its public stockholders and the underwriters of Industrea’s initial public offering. Each Rollover Holder acknowledges that, prior to the Closing, it does not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account, including, without limitation, any claim for indemnification and hereby waives any claim for monies in the Trust Account it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or any other transactions contemplated amongst the Rollover Holders, the Company, Newco, Industrea, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub and Industrea Merger Sub prior to the Closing and, prior to the Closing, will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.
Any party hereto who is domiciled in a state that has adopted the community property system shall also cause his or her spouse, if any, to execute a spousal consent substantially in form attached hereto as Annex C simultaneously with the execution herewith.
The Annexes and Exhibits to this Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be deemed a part of this Agreement in their entirety.

[STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT]
E-1-9

Annex A​
ROLLOVER HOLDER REPRESENTATIONS
This Annex A is incorporated into that certain Rollover Agreement (the “Rollover Agreement”) to which this Annex A is attached. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the respective meanings given them in the Rollover Agreement. The Newco Shares to be acquired by the Rollover Holder pursuant to the Rollover Agreement are referred to in this Annex A as the “Investment.”
I. Rollover Holder Awareness
The Rollover Holder has been furnished with and has read the Rollover Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement. The Rollover Holder is aware and acknowledges that:
(1) Newco has only recently been formed and has no financial or operating history.
(2) There are substantial risks incident to the Investment.
(3) No federal or state agency has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the Investment.
(4) The Rollover Holder has had an opportunity to consult with his own tax advisor regarding all United States federal, state, local and foreign tax considerations applicable to the Investment. None of Newco or any of its Affiliates, employees, agents, members, equity holders, directors, officers, representatives or consultants, assume any responsibility for the tax consequences to the Rollover Holder of the acquisition or ownership of the Investment; provided, that Newco, Industrea and Concrete Parent shall comply with their obligations under the Merger Agreement and under this Agreement.
(5) The Rollover Holder may be required to bear the economic risk of the Investment for an indefinite period of time because the Investment has not been registered for sale under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and therefore cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless either the Investment is subsequently registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption from such registration is available, and the Investment cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless it is registered under applicable state securities or an exemption from such registration is available.
(6) The Rollover Holder’s right to transfer the Investment will be restricted by the terms of the Stockholders Agreement.
II. Additional Representations and Warranties of the Rollover Holder
(1) The Rollover Holder is empowered, authorized and qualified to comply with its obligations contained in the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement. Each of the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement has been, or as of the Rollover Closing will be, duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Rollover Holder and each constitutes, or as of the Rollover Closing will constitute, the valid and binding agreement of the Rollover Holder, enforceable against the Rollover Holder in accordance with its terms.
(2) The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement by the Rollover Holder does not and will not result in a breach of any of the terms of, or constitute a default under, any agreement to which the Rollover Holder is a party or by which the Rollover Holder is bound, or require any authorization or approval under or pursuant to the foregoing, or violate any law, order or decree to which the Rollover Holder is subject, which default or violation would impair the Rollover Holder’s ability to carry out its obligations under any of the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement.
(3) The Rollover Holder is not acquiring the Investment as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, any seminar or meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not previously known to the Rollover Holder in connection with investments in securities generally.
E-1-10

(4) The Rollover Holder is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended).
(5) The Rollover Holder has been furnished all materials relating to Newco and the Investment that the Rollover Holder has requested and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and obtain any additional information regarding the Investment which Newco possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense.
(6) Representatives of Newco have answered all inquiries that the Rollover Holder has made of them concerning Newco and their Affiliates, or any other matters relating to the formation and proposed operation of Newco and the offering and sale of the Investment. The Rollover Holder acknowledges that none of Newco or any Affiliate thereof has rendered or will render any investment advice or securities valuation advice to the Rollover Holder, and that the Rollover Holder is neither subscribing for nor acquiring the Investment in reliance upon, or with the expectation of, any such advice.
(7) The Rollover Holder has not been furnished any offering literature with respect to the Investment or Newco. In addition, no representations or warranties have been made to the Rollover Holder with respect to the Investment or Newco, and the Rollover Holder has not relied upon any such representation or warranty in making this subscription.
(8) The Rollover Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Rollover Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Investment and of making an informed investment decision with respect thereto.
(9) The Rollover Holder is relying on its own investigation and analysis in making the Investment, and has consulted its own legal, tax, financial and accounting advisors to determine the merits and risks thereof.
(10) The Rollover Holder is not relying on any due diligence investigation that Industrea Acquisition Corp. and/or its Affiliates and advisors may have conducted with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates. Except to the extent set forth in Annex B of the Rollover Agreement, none of Newco, Industrea Acquisition Corp. and/or its Affiliates, nor any of their respective current or former equity holders, members, managers, partners, officers, directors, employees, affiliates or advisors (i) makes any representation or warranty as to the Information nor represents or warrants the Information as being all-inclusive or to contain all information that may be desirable or required in order to properly evaluate the Investment or (ii) will have any liability with respect to any use or reliance upon any of the Information.
(11) The Rollover Holder is able to bear the economic risks of the Investment and consequently, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, is able to hold the Investment for an indefinite period of time and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of the entire Investment in the event such loss should occur.
(12) The Rollover Holder is acquiring the Investment for the Rollover Holder’s own account as principal for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, subject to any requirement of law that its property at all times be within its control.
(13) The Rollover Holder recognizes that Newco’s issuance and sale of the Investment to the Rollover Holder will be based upon the Rollover Holder’s representations, warranties and covenants set forth above. All representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Rollover Agreement (including this Annex A) shall survive the consummation of the transactions set forth therein.
III. Certain Restrictions on Transferability
The Rollover Holder acknowledges and agrees that the following restrictions and limitations are applicable to any resale or other transfer of the Investment:
(1) The Investment shall not be sold or otherwise transferred to the extent such sale or transfer is restricted by the Stockholders Agreement and, if so restricted, may only be sold or transferred if the applicable provisions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement are satisfied.
(2) The Investment shall not be sold or otherwise transferred unless in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of the date hereof  (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Industrea (“Newco”), Industrea Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Industrea”), Concrete Pumping Intermediate Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco (“Concrete Parent”), Concrete Pumping Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Concrete Parent (“Concrete Merger Sub”), Industrea Acquisition Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco (“Industrea Merger Sub”), Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and PGP Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative thereunder, pursuant to which, among other things, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Concrete Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger and the Company will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Newco (the “Merger”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.
1. Conversion of Rollover ISOs and Contribution of Rollover Shares.
The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Rollover Closing”) shall take place on the Closing Date immediately prior to the earlier to occur of the Concrete Effective Time and the Industrea Effective Time.
At the Rollover Closing, the undersigned (the “Rollover Holder”) hereby acknowledges and agrees that, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Rollover Agreement (this “Agreement”), (x) a number of tax-qualified “incentive stock options” held by the Rollover Holder and outstanding immediately prior to the Rollover Closing covering shares of Company common stock (“Common Stock”) (such options, the “ISOs”) shall convert into options to acquire Newco Common Shares that are intended to constitute tax-qualified “incentive stock options” for U.S. federal tax purposes (each, a “Converted Option”) and (y) to the extent necessary to result in an aggregate conversion and/or contribution equal to the dollar amount set forth opposite such Rollover Holder’s name on Exhibit A (such amount, the “Stock and Option Rollover Amount”) (taking into consideration any election under Section 1(a) below to rollover additional Rollover Shares (as defined below) in lieu of converting ISOs), the Rollover Holder shall contribute to Newco of a number of Preferred Shares held by such Rollover Holder (such Rollover Holder’s “Rollover Shares”), which conversion and/or contributions shall be effected as follows:
(a) If such Rollover Holder holds any ISOs, by the automatic conversion of ISOs covering a number of shares of Common Stock (not to exceed the total number of ISOs held by such Rollover Holder) equal to (i) the Stock and Option Rollover Amount, divided by (ii) (A) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share
E-2-1

(assuming, for purposes of determining the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share, that the Aggregate Rollover Amount was $0), minus (B) the applicable exercise price per share of such Rollover ISO (such difference, the “Option Spread” and such ISOs, the “Rollover ISOs”) into Converted Options; provided, that to extent that any such Rollover Holder holds any Preferred Shares, such Rollover Holder may, by irrevocable written notice to Newco and the Company (the “Election Notice”) no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, elect to satisfy any portion of the Stock and Option Rollover Amount otherwise to be satisfied pursuant to this Section 1(a) by the contribution pursuant to Section 1(c) of a number of Rollover Shares (the “Elected Rollover Shares”) equal to the quotient of  (x) the difference obtained by subtracting (I) the Stock and Option Rollover Amount, minus (II) the Aggregate Option Spread in respect of all Rollover ISOs (if any) converted into Converted Options pursuant to this Section 1(a), minus (III) the Rollover Share Amount determined in accordance with Section 1(b) below (if any) (the difference obtained under this clause (x), the “Elected Rollover Share Amount”), divided by (y) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share (assuming, for purposes of determining the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share amount, that the Aggregate Rollover Amount was $0). For purposes of this Agreement, the aggregate Option Spread with respect to all Rollover ISOs held by a Rollover Holder and converted into Converted Options pursuant to this Section 1(a) shall be referred to as the “Aggregate Option Spread”.
(b) If such Rollover Holder’s Aggregate Option Spread (taken together with the Elected Share Rollover Amount) is less than the Stock and Option Rollover Amount then, in addition to the conversion described in Section 1(a), such Rollover Holder shall contribute to Newco, in addition to the Elected Rollover Shares (if any), a number of Rollover Shares held by such Rollover Holder equal to (i) (A) Stock and Option Rollover Amount, minus (B) the Aggregate Option Spread, minus (C) the Elected Share Rollover Amount (the amount obtained under this clause (i), the “Rollover Share Amount”), divided by (ii) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share (assuming, for purposes of determining the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share amount, that the Aggregate Rollover Amount was $0).
(c) Additionally, in the event that such Rollover Holder delivers an Election Notice pursuant to the proviso in Section 1(a) to rollover any Elected Rollover Shares, then in substitution of the conversion described in Section 1(a) with respect to the portion of the Stock and Option Rollover Amount set forth in the Election Notice, such Rollover Holder shall contribute to Newco a number of Elected Rollover Shares equal to (i) the Elected Share Rollover Amount, divided by (ii) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share (assuming, for purposes of determining the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Preferred Share amount, that the Aggregate Rollover Amount was $0).
(d) In exchange for the contribution of such Rollover Holder’s Rollover Shares (including the Elected Rollover Shares, if applicable) pursuant to this Agreement, Newco shall issue and deliver to such Rollover Holder a number of Newco Common Shares (rounded up to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) the sum of  (A) such Rollover Holder’s Stock Rollover Amount plus (B) such Rollover Holder’s Elected Rollover Share Amount (if any) divided by (ii) $10.20 (the “Issued Newco Shares”).
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Rollover Holder may make an election to increase his or her Stock and Option Rollover Amount by delivering an irrevocable written notice to Newco and the Company (the “Additional Rollover Amount Notice”) no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date. Such Additional Rollover Amount Notice shall (i) certify as to the accuracy of representations and warranties of such Rollover Holder in this Agreement (and with respect to the representation in item (III)(4) on Annex A (the “Ownership Rep”), as to the accuracy of such representation as of the date of the delivery of the Additional Rollover Amount Notice, in addition to as of the date hereof; provided, that in the event of any inaccuracy in the Ownership Rep arising resulting from any event occurring between the date hereof and the delivery of the Additional Rollover Amount Notice, such Rollover Holder shall deliver and updated version Exhibit B hereto reflecting the occurrence of such event together with the Additional Rollover Amount Notice), (ii) state the aggregate Option Spread value of or number of shares subject to (and per-share exercise price of) additional ISOs, if any, the Rollover Holder desires to convert into additional Converted Options pursuant to Section 1(a) above and (iii) state the aggregate value or number of additional Preferred Shares, if any, the Rollover Holder desires to contribute to Newco in exchange for additional Issued Newco Shares pursuant to Section 1(b) above, which, in case of clauses (ii) and (iii), shall be effected in the same manner and in the same order of priority as set forth in Sections 1(a), (b), (c) and (d) above. All such additional ISOs to be converted into Converted Options and
E-2-2

all such additional Preferred Shares to be contributed to Newco in exchange for Issued Newco Shares shall be included in the definitions of Rollover ISOs (as defined below) and Rollover Shares, respectively, for all purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Rollover Holder’s Aggregate Option Spread shall take into account the aggregate Option Spread of all additional Rollover ISOs the Rollover Holder elects to convert into Converted Options pursuant to this Section 1(e).
For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth herein, the Rollover Holder shall not be entitled to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration for the Rollover Holder’s Rollover Shares, including the Elected Rollover Shares (if any) or Rollover ISOs.
2. Converted Options.
Each Converted Option shall: (i) cover a number of Newco Common Shares determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Rollover ISO is exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement), rounded down to the nearest whole share, (ii) have a per Newco Common Share exercise price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the applicable per share exercise price of the Rollover ISO by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, (iii) be fully vested, (iv) have a remaining term equal in length to the remaining term of the corresponding Rollover Option and (v) have the other terms and conditions that applied immediately prior to the Closing to the corresponding Rollover ISO. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the adjustments in connection with the conversion of the Rollover ISOs to Converted Options shall comply with and be performed in a manner consistent in all respects with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Rollover Holder acknowledges and agrees that, following the Rollover Closing, the Rollover Holder shall have no further right, interest, entitlement or claim in or with respect to the Rollover ISOs. For purposes of this Agreement, the conversion described in this paragraph is referred to herein as the “ISO Conversion.”
In addition to the ISO Conversion, each Rollover Holder shall have the right to receive: (A) such Rollover Holder’s Option Pro-Rata Share in respect of its Converted Option of any positive Adjustment Amount payable in cash in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Merger Agreement, (B) such Rollover Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of its Converted Option of any distributions of Escrow Funds by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and (C) such Rollover Holder’s portion in respect of its Converted Option of any Tax Refunds in accordance with Section 8.6(g) of the Merger Agreement.
The ISO Conversion and the Rollover Holder’s receipt of the Converted Options and amounts described above are subject to (i) the receipt by the Company of this Agreement signed by the Rollover Holder, (ii) the representations and warranties of the Rollover Holder set forth in Annex A being true and correct, (iii) the Rollover Holder having not exercised the Rollover Holder’s Rollover ISOs, in whole or in part, prior to the Rollover Closing or the Effective Time of the Merger, and (iv) the Rollover Holder having not breached or violated any of its covenants or agreements set forth herein and the exhibits and annexes hereto.
The conversion of the Rollover ISOs into the Converted ISOs in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall comply with and be treated as a tax-free conversion of the Rollover ISOs as prescribed by and in a manner consistent in all respects with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code. From time to time after the Rollover Closing, without further consideration, if requested by the Rollover Holder in writing, Newco shall promptly provide the Rollover Holder with a duly executed statement pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h) informing such Rollover Holder whether or not the Issued Newco Shares issued and delivered to such Rollover Holder constitute “United States real property interests” (and shall comply with the related notice requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h)(2)).
3. Issued Newco Shares.
The Issued Newco Common Shares will be delivered by Newco to the Rollover Holder in book entry form, free and clear of any Liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under the Stockholders Agreement or state or federal securities laws), in the name of each such Rollover Holder (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by such Rollover Holder, as applicable.
E-2-3

In exchange for the contribution of the Rollover Holder’s Rollover Shares to Newco, in addition to the Issued Newco Shares described above, the Rollover Holder shall have the right to receive: (A) such Rollover Holder’s Fully-Diluted Percentage in respect of its Rollover Shares of any positive Adjustment Amount payable in cash in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Merger Agreement, (B) such Rollover Holder’s Escrow Percentage in respect of its Rollover Shares of any distributions of Escrow Funds by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and (C) such Rollover Holder’s portion in respect of its Rollover Shares of any Tax Refunds in accordance with Section 8.6(g) of the Merger Agreement.
At or prior to the Rollover Closing, the Rollover Holder shall deliver to Newco (x) a duly executed certificate substantially in the form of Annex H to the Merger Agreement, and (y) all of the certificates for the Rollover Shares (if certificated), fully endorsed for transfer in blank.
The contribution of the Rollover Shares by the Rollover Holder to Newco in exchange for the consideration set forth herein (taken together with taken together with the Industrea Merger, the Argand Equity Investment and any other relevant contributions to Newco) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the subsequent contribution of the Rollover Shares by Newco to Concrete Parent, are each intended to be treated as contributions governed by Section 351 of the Code, and each of Newco and the Rollover Holder shall report such transactions consistently with such intent.
4. Stockholders Agreement
At or prior to the Rollover Closing, each of the Rollover Holder, Industrea, Industrea Alexandria LLC and Newco shall execute and deliver to the other party a Stockholders Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Stockholders Agreement”).
The consummation of the transactions described herein is subject to and conditioned upon (i) all conditions to the Mergers set forth in Article IX of the Merger Agreement having been satisfied not later than the time of the Rollover Closing or, to the extent not satisfied, having been waived by the Person or Persons entitled to waive any such condition, (ii) no suspension of the qualification of the Issued Newco Shares issued pursuant hereto for offering or sale or trading in any jurisdiction, or initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, shall have occurred, (iii) the concurrent funding of the Debt Financing (in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letters) and the Equity Financing (in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreements). This Agreement and the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder will automatically terminate and become null and void, and no party shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, upon the termination of the Merger Agreement.
The Rollover Holder hereby (i) makes the representations and warranties, set forth in Annex A hereto, and (ii) agrees that it will become a party to, and be bound by, the Stockholders Agreement at the Rollover Closing in accordance with its terms.
Newco hereby (i) makes the representations and warranties set forth in Annex B hereto, and (ii) agrees that it will become a party to, and be bound by, the Stockholders Agreement at the Rollover Closing in accordance with its terms.
The provisions of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior written or oral agreements or understandings of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person, except as otherwise set forth in the immediately following sentence. Without limiting any other rights of the Company, this Agreement may be enforced by the Company to cause the consummation of the contribution of the Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOs and the issuance and delivery of the Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOS in accordance with the terms hereof and, accordingly, the Company shall be a third party beneficiary hereof and entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the parties hereto.
This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or via email as a portable document format (.pdf) and in any number of counterparts, and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
E-2-4

inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, but shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties.
This Agreement, or any term or condition hereof, may be modified or waived only by a separate writing signed by each of the parties hereto. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of the Company if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces the number of Rollover Shares and/or Rollover ISOs, or (ii) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the Closing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially impair or delay the Closing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Closing) or (y) adversely affect the ability of Newco or Industrea to enforce its rights against under this Agreement or any of the other definitive agreements with respect thereto. Each of the parties hereto waives any right it may have to trial by jury in respect of any litigation based on, arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or any course of conduct, course of dealing, verbal or written statement or action of any party hereto.
This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.
The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, drafting, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.
The Rollover Holder acknowledges that Industrea is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving Industrea and one or more businesses or assets. The Rollover Holder further acknowledges that, as described in Industrea’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 26, 2017 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Industrea’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of Industrea’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of Industrea, its public stockholders and the underwriters of Industrea’s initial public offering. The Rollover Holder acknowledges that, prior to the Closing, it does not have any right, title, interest or any claim of any kind he have or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, including, without limitation, any claim for indemnification and hereby waives any claim for monies in the Trust Account it may have as a result of, or arising out of, this or arising out of, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or any other transactions contemplated amongst the Rollover Holders, the Company, Newco, Industrea, Concrete Parent, Concrete Merger Sub and Industrea Merger Sub prior to the Closing and, prior to the Closing, will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.
Any party hereto who is domiciled in a state that has adopted the community property system shall also cause his or her spouse, if any, to execute a spousal consent substantially in form attached hereto as Annex D simultaneously with the execution herewith.
The Annexes and Exhibits to this Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be deemed a part of this Agreement in their entirety.

Annex A​
ROLLOVER HOLDER REPRESENTATIONS
This Annex A is incorporated into that certain Rollover Agreement (the “Rollover Agreement”) to which this Annex A is attached. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the respective meanings given them in the Rollover Agreement. The Newco Common Shares to be acquired by the Rollover Holder pursuant to the Rollover Agreement in respect of Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOs are referred to in this Annex A as the “Investment.”
I. Rollover Holder Awareness
The Rollover Holder has been furnished with and has read the Rollover Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement. The Rollover Holder is aware and acknowledges that:
(1) Newco has only recently been formed and has no financial or operating history.
(2) There are substantial risks incident to the Investment.
(3) No federal or state agency has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the Investment.
(4) The Rollover Holder has had an opportunity to consult with his own tax advisor regarding all United States federal, state, local and foreign tax considerations applicable to the Investment. None of Newco or any of its Affiliates, employees, agents, members, equity holders, directors, officers, representatives or consultants, assume any responsibility for the tax consequences to the Rollover Holder of the acquisition or ownership of the Investment; provided, that Newco, Industrea and Concrete Parent shall comply with their obligations under the Merger Agreement and under the Rollover Agreement.
(5) The Rollover Holder may be required to bear the economic risk of the Investment for an indefinite period of time because the Investment has not been registered for sale under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and therefore cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless either the Investment is subsequently registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption from such registration is available, and the Investment cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless it is registered under applicable state securities or an exemption from such registration is available.
(6) The Rollover Holder’s right to transfer the Investment will be restricted by the terms of the Stockholders Agreement.
II. Acknowledgment, Release and Waiver of Claims
(1) As a material inducement to the parties to consummate the Merger and as a condition to the ISO Conversion and the Investment, the Rollover Holder hereby:
A. acknowledges and agrees that the treatment of the Rollover Holder’s Rollover ISOs in connection with the Merger has been conducted in all respects in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement(s) and the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (including, without limitation, any notice provisions thereof) and that, to the extent that such treatment constitutes a variation or modification of any such terms and conditions (if any), so long as such variation or modification does not result in a materially adverse consequence to the Rollover Holder, the Rollover Holder hereby consents and agrees to any such variations or modifications:
B. acknowledges and agrees that the ISO Conversion and the Rollover Holder’s receipt of the Converted Options and amounts described in the Rollover Agreement are in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations with respect to the Rollover ISOs; and
C. irrevocably waives, releases and discharges Newco, Industrea, the Company and each of their respective affiliates and successors (together with the current and former directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors, agents, stockholders and representatives of such entities, the “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, demands, proceedings, causes of action, orders, obligations, contracts, agreements, taxes, penalties, interest, debts and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, both at law and in equity, which the
E-2-13

Rollover Holder can, shall or may have against the Released Parties, in each case, related to or arising under or in connection with the Rollover Shares, the Rollover ISOs or any other equity or equity-linked award denominated in Common Shares, the treatment of the Rollover ISOs in the Merger, any rights, interests or entitlements under or in connection with the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan or any award thereunder and any award agreements thereunder or ancillary documents thereto (or any amendment or modification to any of the foregoing), in any case, that now exists or may hereafter accrue based on the foregoing matters, whether now known or unknown (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this release shall not extend to the ISO Conversion and the Rollover Holder’s right to receive the Converted Options and amounts described in the Rollover Agreement.
(2) The Rollover Holder acknowledges that the Rollover Holder has been advised to consult with legal counsel and, if a California resident, is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:
“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
The Rollover Holder, if a California resident, being aware of said code section and any similar, applicable state law, agrees to expressly waive any rights that the Rollover Holder may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect with respect to the Released Claims. The Rollover Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Rollover Holder may discover new or additional facts or information subsequent to the execution of the Rollover Agreement and that any such new or additional facts and information shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this release and waiver. The Rollover Holder agrees to take any and all actions and to execute and deliver any and all documents that may reasonably be requested in order to accomplish the intent of this release and waiver of claims.
III. Additional Representations and Warranties of the Rollover Holder
(1) The Rollover Holder is empowered, authorized and qualified to comply with its obligations contained in the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement. Each of the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement has been, or as of the Rollover Closing will be, duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Rollover Holder and each constitutes, or as of the Rollover Closing will constitute, the valid and binding agreement of the Rollover Holder, enforceable against the Rollover Holder in accordance with its terms.
(2) The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement by the Rollover Holder does not and will not result in a breach of any of the terms of, or constitute a default under, any agreement to which the Rollover Holder is a party or by which the Rollover Holder is bound, or require any authorization or approval under or pursuant to the foregoing, or violate any law, order or decree to which the Rollover Holder is subject, which default or violation would impair the Rollover Holder’s ability to carry out its obligations under any of the Rollover Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement.
(3) The Rollover Holder is the legal and beneficial owner of the Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOs, and owns the Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOs free and clear of all encumbrances. The Rollover Holder has full right, power and authority to transfer and deliver valid title to the Rollover Shares and Rollover ISOs. The Rollover Holder has not assigned, conveyed, or transferred, or attempted or purported to assign, convey, or transfer, in any manner or degree whatsoever, to any Person any right, title or interest in or to the Rollover Shares or Rollover ISOs.
(4) Exhibit B sets forth the number and class of shares of Company Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock subject to options (including the grant date and exercise price with respect thereto) held by the Rollover Holder as of the date hereof.
(5) The Rollover Holder has not exercised the Rollover ISOs, in whole or in part, prior to the Closing.
E-2-14

(6) There is no claim, action, suit, legal proceeding or investigation, pending or threatened against the Rollover Holder which questions or challenges the Rollover Holder’s ownership of the Rollover Shares or Rollover ISOs or validity of the Rollover Agreement or any action taken by the Rollover Holder or to be taken pursuant to the Rollover Agreement.
(7) The Rollover Holder is not acquiring the Investment as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, any seminar or meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not previously known to the Rollover Holder in connection with investments in securities generally.
(8) The Rollover Holder is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended).
(9) The Rollover Holder has been furnished all materials relating to Newco and the Investment that the Rollover Holder has requested and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and obtain any additional information regarding the Investment which Newco possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense.
(10) Representatives of Newco have answered all inquiries that the Rollover Holder has made of them concerning Newco and their Affiliates, or any other matters relating to the formation and proposed operation of Newco and the offering and sale of the Investment. The Rollover Holder acknowledges that none of Newco or any Affiliate thereof has rendered or will render any investment advice or securities valuation advice to the Rollover Holder, and that the Rollover Holder is neither subscribing for nor acquiring the Investment in reliance upon, or with the expectation of, any such advice.
(11) The Rollover Holder has not been furnished any offering literature with respect to the Investment or Newco. In addition, no representations or warranties have been made to the Rollover Holder with respect to the Investment or Newco, and the Rollover Holder has not relied upon any such representation or warranty in making this subscription.
(12) The Rollover Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Rollover Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Investment and of making an informed investment decision with respect thereto.
(13) The Rollover Holder is relying on its own investigation and analysis in making the Investment, and has consulted its own legal, tax, financial and accounting advisors to determine the merits and risks thereof.
(14) The Rollover Holder is not relying on any due diligence investigation that Industrea Acquisition Corp. and/or its Affiliates and advisors may have conducted with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates. Except to the extent set forth in Annex B of the Rollover Agreement, none of Newco, Industrea Acquisition Corp. and/or its Affiliates, nor any of their respective current or former equity holders, members, managers, partners, officers, directors, employees, affiliates or advisors (i) makes any representation or warranty as to the Information nor represents or warrants the Information as being all-inclusive or to contain all information that may be desirable or required in order to properly evaluate the Investment or (ii) will have any liability with respect to any use or reliance upon any of the Information.
(15) The Rollover Holder is able to bear the economic risks of the Investment and consequently, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, is able to hold the Investment for an indefinite period of time and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of the entire Investment in the event such loss should occur.
(16) The Rollover Holder is acquiring the Investment for the Rollover Holder’s own account as principal for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, subject to any requirement of law that its property at all times be within its control.
(17) The Rollover Holder acknowledges and agrees that except as required to comply with applicable Law, at all times on and after the date hereof, the Rollover Holder shall not (and shall cause the Rollover Holder’s respective controlled Affiliates not to and shall direct the Rollover Holder’s Representatives not to) make any statements to any third party with respect to (a) the Merger Agreement, the existence of the Merger Agreement, the Concrete Merger and Transactions or the existence of the Transaction Documents
E-2-15

(including this Letter of Transmittal) or (b) any trade secret and other material confidential information concerning the businesses, affairs and assets of the Industrea Parties, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, including methods or systems of its operation or management, or information regarding its financial matters (collectively, “Confidential Information”); provided, that “Confidential Information” shall not include information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unpermitted disclosure by the Rollover Holder or its Affiliate or Representative or is independently developed by the Rollover Holder or its Affiliate or Representative without the use of Confidential Information, and this provision shall not prohibit (x) disclosures by the Rollover Holder, its Affiliates or Representatives to the Rollover Holder’s Affiliates and the Rollover Holder’s and the Rollover Holder’s Affiliates’ Representatives or (y) if the Rollover Holder or its Affiliates have direct or indirect third-party investors (whether actual or prospective), disclosures to such actual or prospective investors of information regarding the Transactions reasonably necessary in connection with the Rollover Holder’s or its Affiliates’ fundraising activities or to satisfy the Rollover Holder’s customary reporting requirements; provided, further, that in all cases the same are obligated to maintain the confidentiality of the information provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Rollover Holder is requested or required to disclose any Confidential Information (by oral request or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar legal or regulatory process), the Rollover Holder shall (i) to the extent permitted, as promptly as practicable notify the Industrea Parties and/or the Company of the request or requirement so that the Industrea Parties and/or the Company may seek (at their sole cost and expense) a protective order and (ii) reasonably cooperate (at the sole cost and expense of the Industrea Parties) with the affected Industrea Party and its Affiliates in connection therewith; provided, that none of the Rollover Holder or its Affiliates shall be required to provide such notice to the Industrea Parties or the Company in connection with a routine audit or investigation conducted by a governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority that does not primarily relate to the Company, the Industrea Parties or Confidential Information.
(18) The Rollover Holder recognizes that Newco’s issuance and sale of the Investment to the Rollover Holder will be based upon the Rollover Holder’s representations, warranties and covenants set forth above. All representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Rollover Agreement (including this Annex A) shall survive the consummation of the transactions set forth therein.
IV. Certain Restrictions on Transferability
The Rollover Holder acknowledges and agrees that the following restrictions and limitations are applicable to any resale or other transfer of the Investment:

Registration Rights
2.1 Registration
(a) Registration Requirements.   The Company shall, not later than ninety (90) days after the Closing, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not available, Form S-1 or such other registration statement form that is available to the Company, and take all such other actions as are necessary to ensure that there is an effective “shelf” registration statement containing a prospectus that remains current covering (and to qualify under required U.S. state securities laws, if any) the offer and sale of all Registrable Securities by the Holders on a continuous or delayed basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act (the registration statement, the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”). The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause
F-5

the Commission to declare the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective as soon as possible thereafter but in any event within one hundred fifty (150) days of the Closing, and to remain effective and the prospectus contained therein current until all Holders cease to hold Registrable Securities. The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for any method or combination of methods of resale of Registrable Securities legally available to, and requested by, the Holders, and shall comply with the relevant provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act. At the time the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, each Investor shall be named as a selling securityholder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Investor to deliver such prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law. If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is on Form S-3 and ceases to be effective, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable but in any event no later than the earlier of  (i) if the Company has filed with the Commission all periodic reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act, sixty (60) days after the date on which the Resale Shelf Registration Statement ceased to be effective and (ii) if the Company has not filed with the Commission all periodic reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act, sixty (60) days after the date on which the Company files such reports with the Commission, prepare and file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or new registration statement on an available form covering all the Registrable Securities, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Commission within seventy-five (75) days after such filing and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until all Holders cease to hold Registrable Securities. Upon effectiveness, such registration statement shall constitute the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement” for all purposes under this Agreement.
(b) Request for Underwritten Takedowns.   The Holders that qualify as Initiating Holders will be entitled to an unlimited number of Underwritten Takedowns with respect to their Registrable Securities. If the Company shall receive from Initiating Holders a written request signed by such Initiating Holders that the Company effect any Underwritten Takedown with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities (such request shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of by such Initiating Holders), the Company will:
(i) promptly, and in any event, within five (5) days after receiving such request, give written notice of the proposed Underwritten Takedown to all other Holders; and
(ii) as soon as practicable, use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Commission to declare such Underwritten Takedown effective within sixty (60) days thereafter (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, one or more prospectus supplements, appropriate qualifications under any applicable blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with the Securities Act) and to permit and facilitate the sale and distribution in an underwritten offering of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within five (5) days after such written notice from the Company is mailed or delivered.
(c) Limitations on Underwritten Takedowns.   The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Underwritten Takedown pursuant to this Section 2.1:
(i) If the Initiating Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such Underwritten Takedown, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any), the aggregate proceeds of which are anticipated to be less than $25,000,000; or
(ii) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification, or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; or
(iii) Within one hundred twenty (120) days of the closing of any other Underwritten Takedown.
F-6

(d) Other Shares.   Any Underwritten Takedown may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.1(f), include Other Shares, and may include securities of the Company being sold for the account of the Company, provided that, any Other Shares or securities of the Company to be included in an Underwritten Takedown must be the subject of an effective shelf registration statement at the time the Company receives the request for an Underwritten Takedown from the Initiating Holders.
(e) Underwriting; Cutback.   If the Company shall request inclusion in any Underwritten Takedown of securities to be sold for its own account, or if other persons shall request inclusion of Other Shares in any Underwritten Takedown, the Initiating Holders shall, on behalf of all Holders, offer to include such securities in the underwriting and such offer shall be conditioned upon the participation of the Company or such other persons in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Company’s and such other person’s securities of the Company and their acceptance of the applicable provisions of this Section 2. The Company shall (together with all Holders and other persons proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company, which underwriters are reasonably acceptable to a majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders. No Holder (or its permitted transferee or assignee under Section 2.11) shall be required to make any representations or warranties to, or agreements with, the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder’s (or such transferee’s or assignee’s) authority to enter into such underwriting agreement and to sell, and its ownership of, the securities being registered on its behalf, its intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.1, if the underwriters, in good faith, advise the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, among Initiating Holders requesting to include Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities requested by such Initiating Holders to be included in such Underwritten Takedown (determined based on the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Underwritten Takedown by each such Initiating Holder); (ii) second, among all other Holders requesting to include Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities requested by such Holders to be included in such Underwritten Takedown (determined based on the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Underwritten Takedown by each such Holder); (iii) third, to any holder of Preferred Stock Conversion Shares that has requested the inclusion of its Preferred Stock Conversion Shares pursuant to the Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement; (iv) fourth, to the Company, which the Company may allocate, at its discretion, for its own account, or for the account of other Holders or employees of the Company, and (v) fifth, to any Other Selling Stockholders requesting to include Other Shares in such registration statement.
If a person who has requested inclusion in such Underwritten Takedown as provided above does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice to the Company, the underwriter or the Initiating Holders, and the securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from the Underwritten Takedown. If Registrable Securities are so withdrawn from the Underwritten Takedown and if the number of shares to be included in such Underwritten Takedown was previously reduced as a result of marketing factors pursuant to this Section 2.1(e), then the Company shall offer to all Holders who have retained rights to include securities in the Underwritten Takedown the right to include additional Registrable Securities in the offering in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares so withdrawn, with such shares to be allocated among such Holders requesting additional inclusion, as set forth above.
(f) Deferral; Suspension.   Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate (the “Suspension Notice”) signed by an executive officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Company, effecting a registration (whether by the filing of a Registration Statement or by taking any other action) or the offering or disposition of Registrable Securities thereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, through an Underwritten Takedown) should be postponed or suspended because such registration, offering or
F-7

disposal would (1) materially impede, delay or interfere with a pending material acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (2) require premature disclosure of material non-public information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (3) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, then by delivery of the Suspension Notice to the Holders, the Company may so postpone effecting a registration or require the Holders to refrain from offering or disposing of Registrable Securities for a period of not more than thirty (30) days, and, provided further, that the Company shall not suspend usage of a registration statement in this manner more than twice in any twelve (12) month period or at any time within thirty (30) days of the end of the immediately preceding suspension period. The Company shall give written notice to the Holders as promptly as practicable following the date that such suspension is no longer necessary.
2.2 Peninsula Holder Underwritten Takedown.   If the number of shares issued to the Peninsula Holder pursuant to the terms of the Rollover Agreement to which it is a party exceeds 882,353 shares (the “Peninsula Threshold”), then for a period of two years following the one hundred eighty (180)-day anniversary of the Closing, the Peninsula Holder shall have the right to cause the Company to effect one (1) Underwritten Takedown (a “Peninsula Takedown”) (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be on whatever registration statement form is then available to the Company to serve as the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, including a registration statement on Form S-1 to the extent that Form S-3 is not then available) in which the Peninsula Holder shall have the right to include the Peninsula Holder’s Registrable Securities in excess of the Peninsula Threshold in such Underwritten Takedown as a matter of priority over all other Holders and the Company. If the Company receives a written request for a Peninsula Takedown, then, subject to Section 2.1(c)(ii) and (iii), the Company shall provide the notices and take the actions required by Section 2.1(b)(i) and (ii) of this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the Peninsula Holder, no stockholder of the Company (other than the Peninsula Holder) may include securities in an offering pursuant to a Peninsula Takedown. If the underwriters, in good faith, advise the Peninsula Holder in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities that may be so included in the Peninsula Takedown shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, to the Peninsula Holder to include Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown in excess of the Peninsula Threshold; and (ii) second, to the Company, which the Company may allocate, at its discretion, for its own account or, with the prior written consent of the Peninsula Holder, for the account of other Holders who have requested to include their Registrable Securities in such offering; provided, that if  (A) on the date on which the Peninsula Holder provides a written request for an initial Peninsula Takedown the Peninsula Holder beneficially owns at least 2,625,2721 shares of Company Common Stock that were issued under its Rollover Agreement and (B) less than fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities of the Peninsula Holder requested to be registered in the Peninsula Takedown are included in such initial Underwritten Takedown effected under this Section 2.2, then such Underwritten Takedown shall not be considered a Peninsula Takedown for purposes of this Agreement; provided further that in no event shall the Company (1) be required to effect a Peninsula Takedown within six (6) months after the closing date of any other Underwritten Takedown effected under this Section 2.2, and (2) be required to effect more than two (2) Underwritten Takedowns under this Section 2.2. In connection with any Peninsula Takedown, Argand Investor and its Affiliates shall, at the Peninsula Holder’s written request, sign a customary lockup agreement whereby Argand Investor and its Affiliates will agree to refrain from effecting any Transfer of Company Common Stock or other securities of the Company until sixty (60) days after the conclusion of the Peninsula Takedown. The Peninsula Holder shall have the right to terminate or withdraw its request for an Underwritten Takedown (and in such case shall not be deemed to have exercised its right to have caused the Company to effect a Peninsula Takedown) at any time prior to the effectiveness of such registration.
2.3 Company Registration
(a) Company Registration/Underwritten Offering.   If the Company shall determine to (1) register any of its securities either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders (or a combination of the foregoing) during a period in which a Resale Shelf Registration Statement covering
1
Reflects Peninsula’s initial rollover amount (at $10.20 per share) plus $16m backstop utilization (at $9.18 per share; $25m total rollover).
F-8

a Holder’s Registrable Securities is not then effective, other than: a registration pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2; a registration relating to the shares of Company Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants; a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, a registration relating to the offer and sale of non-convertible debt securities, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or other Rule 145 transaction; or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales, or (2) effect an underwritten public offering of securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders (or a combination of the foregoing), the Company will:
(i) promptly give written notice (in any event not later than twenty (20) days prior to the filing of the registration statement or preliminary prospectus to which such offering relates) of the proposed registration or offering, as applicable, to all Holders; and
(ii) include in such registration or offering, as applicable, (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), except as set forth in Section 2.2(b) below, and in any underwriting involved therein, all of such Registrable Securities as are specified in a written request or requests made by any Holder or Holders received by the Company within ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. Such written request may specify all or a part of a Holder’s Registrable Securities.
(b) Underwriting; Cutback.   If the registration or offering of which the Company gives notice is for an underwritten public offering, the Company shall so advise the Holders (and include the names of the proposed underwriters) as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i). All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the Other Selling Stockholders with registration rights to participate therein) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company. No Holder (or its permitted transferee or assignee under Section 2.11) shall be required to make any representations or warranties to, or agreements with, the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder’s (or such transferee’s or assignee’s) authority to enter into such underwriting agreement and to sell, and its ownership of, the securities being registered on its behalf, its intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2, if the underwriters in good faith advise the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the offering in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be reduced, subject to the limitations set forth below. The Company shall so advise all holders of securities requesting registration, and the number of shares entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated (1) if the underwritten offering is for the Company’s account, (m) first, to the Company; (n) second, to the Holders requesting to include Registrable Securities in such offering based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities requested to be included by such Holders; (o) third, to any holder of Preferred Stock Conversion Shares that has requested the inclusion of its Preferred Stock Conversion Shares pursuant to the Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement; and (iv) fourth, to the Other Selling Stockholders, if any, requesting to include Other Shares in such underwritten offering and (2) if the underwritten offering is for the account of Other Selling Stockholders, then (x) first, to the Other Selling Stockholders, (y) second, to the Holders requesting to include Registrable Securities in such offering based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities requested to be included by such Holders; and (z) third, to the Company.
If a person who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided above does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or Other Shares excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses prior to any such withdrawal.

(c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.7 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall (i) give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought (provided, that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure), and (ii) permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense unless (w) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (x) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Indemnified Party hereunder and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, (y) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (z) in the reasonable judgment of any such person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between such person and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person). No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.7 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. No person or entity will be required under this Section 2.7(d) to contribute any amount in
F-14

excess of the net proceeds from the offering received by such person or entity, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such person or entity. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(c) So long as a Holder owns any Restricted Securities, furnish to the Holder forthwith upon written request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies as registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request to enable such Holder to sell from time to time shares of Company Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144, including providing any legal opinions and cooperating with the Holders to cause the transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend on certificates evidencing Registrable Securities). This Section 2.9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement so long as any Holder continues to hold Registrable Securities.
2.10 No Inconsistent Agreements.   The Company has not entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities or otherwise conflict with the provisions hereof.
2.11 Transfer or Assignment of Rights.   This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part. The rights granted to a Holder by the Company under this Section 2 may be transferred or assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder only to a transferee of Registrable Securities that is a transferee or assignee of not less than 10,000 Registrable Securities (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for share splits, share dividends, reverse share splits and the like); provided, that (x) such transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities is effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (y) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred and (z) such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Company to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

5.7 Delays or Omissions.   Except as expressly provided herein, no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party to this Agreement upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-defaulting party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

5.8 Remedies.   Each holder of Registrable Securities, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company acknowledges that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and the Company hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.9 Severability.   If any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Agreement, and such court will replace such illegal, void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the same economic, business and other purposes of the illegal, void or unenforceable provision. The balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
5.10 Titles and Subtitles.   The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to sections, paragraphs and exhibits shall, unless otherwise provided, refer to sections and paragraphs hereof and exhibits attached hereto.

Such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding and effective for all purposes. At the request of any party hereto, all parties hereto agree to execute and deliver an original of this Agreement as well as any facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction hereof.
5.13 Further Assurances.   Each party hereto agrees to execute and deliver, by the proper exercise of its corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other powers, all such other and additional instruments and documents and do all such other acts and things as may be necessary to more fully effectuate this Agreement.
5.14 Attorneys’ Fees.   In the event that any suit or action is instituted to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party such reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.
5.15 Aggregation of Stock.   All securities held or acquired by affiliated entities of or persons shall be aggregated together for purposes of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.
F-21

5.16 Jury Trial Consent to Jurisdiction.   Any judicial proceeding brought with respect to this Agreement must be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party (a) accepts, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and any related appellate court, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement; and (b) irrevocably waives any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court or that such court is an inconvenient forum. Nothing in this Section, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or at equity. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.
5.17 No Recourse.   This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement and not otherwise), no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company, Industrea or any Investor or Holder under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) or of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act.
Newco’s certificate of incorporation provides for indemnification of Newco’s directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, and Newco’s bylaws provide for indemnification of Newco’s directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
In addition, effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Newco has entered into indemnification agreements with directors, officers, and some employees containing provisions which are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. The indemnification agreements require Newco, among other things, to indemnify its directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Item 22. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant, hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
i.
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
ii.
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
II-3

individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
iii.
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(5)
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
i.
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
ii.
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
iii.
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
iv.
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(6)
That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.
II-4

(7)
That every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.
II-5
