Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 7 and May 8, 2019, the Chief Executive Officer of Capitol Investment Corp. IV (the “Company”), Mark D. Ein, and its President and Chief Financial Officer, L. Dyson Dryden, and the Company’s independent directors collectively committed to lend the Company an aggregate of an additional $102,000, if such funds are needed by the Company to consummate an initial merger, share exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”).

Any amount loaned by the officers and directors to the Company pursuant to such commitments will be evidenced by unsecured promissory notes issued to the lenders. Each note would be non-interest bearing and would be payable at the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination. As indicated in the Company’s final prospectus, dated August 15, 2017, upon consummation of a Business Combination, the lenders would have the option to convert up to $1,500,000 of the principal balance of such notes into warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant (subject to compliance with the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 7, 2019, by and among the Company, Capitol Intermediate Holdings, LLC, Capitol Investment Merger Sub 1, LLC, Capitol Investment Merger Sub 2, LLC, NESCO Holdings, LP and NESCO Holdings I, Inc., which restricts the Company’s ability to convert such loans to warrants except in certain cases). The terms of any such warrants issued would be identical to the warrants issued by the Company in its initial public offering (“Public Offering”) except that such warrants would be non-redeemable by the Company and would be exercisable for cash or on a “cashless” basis, in each case, so long as such warrants were held by the initial holder or his permitted transferees. If a Business Combination is not consummated, all outstanding amounts under any notes issued to the lenders would be forgiven except to the extent that the Company had funds available to it outside of its trust account established in connection with the Public Offering to repay such amounts.
