On February 24, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with ISI Holding, Inc.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, ISI Holding has agreed to exercise its existing conversion rights under the terms of the partnership agreement of Evercore LP to exchange (the "Exchange") all 2,545 of the Class E LP Units owned by it for 2,545 Class A Shares. Following the Exchange, ISI Holding will liquidate and distribute the Class A Shares received in the Exchange to its stockholders in accordance with their ownership interests in ISI Holding. The parties have relied on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 under Section 4(a)(2) thereof for the Exchange. The Exchange will result in a decrease in noncontrolling interest of Evercore LP from 11% to approximately 5%.
