Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies

For a further discussion of the Company's accounting policies, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, necessary to fairly present the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The December 31, 2018 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are comprised of the consolidation of Evercore LP and Evercore LP's wholly-owned and majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Evercore Group L.L.C. ("EGL"), a registered broker-dealer in the U.S. The Company's policy is to consolidate all subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest, as well as any variable interest entities ("VIEs") where the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, when it has the power to make the decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb significant losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reviews factors, including the rights of the equity holders and obligations of equity holders to absorb losses or receive expected residual returns, to determine if the investment is a VIE. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly by the Company. The consolidation analysis is generally performed qualitatively. This analysis, which requires judgment, is performed at each reporting date.

Evercore LP is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Specifically, the Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore LP and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity while the limited partners have no kick-out or substantive participating rights. The assets and liabilities of Evercore LP represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the Company with the exception of U.S. corporate taxes and related items, which are presented on the Company's (Parent Company Only) Condensed Statements of Financial Position in Note 24 to

EVERCORE INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars and share / unit amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)

the Company's consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Evercore ISI International Limited ("ISI U.K."), Evercore Partners International LLP ("Evercore U.K.") and Evercore (Japan) Ltd. ("Evercore Japan") are also VIEs, and the Company is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. Specifically for ISI U.K. and Evercore Japan (as of January 1, 2019 for Evercore Japan), the Company provides financial support through transfer pricing agreements with these entities, which exposes the Company to losses that are potentially significant to these entities, and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of these entities. The Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore U.K. and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of this entity. The Company included in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition ISI U.K., Evercore U.K. and Evercore Japan assets of $161,095 and liabilities of $101,937 at June 30, 2019 and ISI U.K. and Evercore U.K. assets of $190,223 and liabilities of $122,460 at December 31, 2018.

All intercompany balances and transactions with the Company's subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company adopted ASC 842, "Leases" ("ASC 842") on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method of transition. The Company did not have a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients, which does not require reassessment of whether contracts are or contain leases, of lease classification and of initial direct costs. The Company also elected the transition option in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements," ("ASU 2018-11") to not apply the new lease standard in comparative periods presented in financial statements in the year of adoption. Following the adoption of ASC 842, the Company includes all leases, including short-term leases, on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts for leases for the use of office equipment. Operating leases for office space generally contain payments for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses in addition to rent payments; the Company does not include these as part of the lease component.

Following the adoption of ASC 842, the present value of the Company's lease commitments are reflected as long-term assets, within Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets, with corresponding liabilities classified as current and non-current, within Operating Lease Liabilities on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company's right to use the underlying assets for their lease terms and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs. The lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees.

Operating lease expense is included in Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (which did not change from the legacy U.S. GAAP presentation). See Notes 3 and 10 for further information.

Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2016-02 – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 supersedes ASC 840, "Leases" ("ASC 840") and includes requirements for the recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which provides an additional transition method to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to Retained Earnings for prior periods as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The amendments in these updates are effective using a modified retrospective approach as of the date of adoption, during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption resulted in the present value of the Company's lease commitments being reflected on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as a long-term asset with a corresponding liability, classified as current and non-current. Right-of-use assets are subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs. The Company's lease commitments primarily relate to office space, as discussed in Note 10. The impact on the Company's earnings is not materially different from the prior expense related to leases as required under legacy U.S. GAAP, which is primarily reflected in Occupancy and Equipment Rental expense on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and there was no impact on the Company's cash flows. The Company recorded lease liabilities of $217,913 on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated

(dollars and share / unit amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)

Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019, along with associated right-of-use assets of $178,241, which reflect the lease liabilities recognized, subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs.

ASU 2016-13 – In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 provides amendments to ASC 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses," which amend the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments and adds an impairment model (the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Entities will recognize an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses as of the end of each reporting period. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted after December 15, 2018. The Company currently uses the specific identification method for establishing credit provisions and write-offs of its trade accounts receivable. The Company anticipates adopting ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update but does not anticipate a material difference between the current method and the CECL model.

ASU 2018-02 – In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, "Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2018-02"). ASU 2018-02 provides amendments to ASC 220, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income," which allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments in this update are effective either in the period of adoption or retrospectively, to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized, during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 on January 1, 2019 and did not elect to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. As such, there was no impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-07 – In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, "Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2018-07"). ASU 2018-07 provides amendments to ASC 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" to align the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees, particularly surrounding the measurement date and impact of performance conditions. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption for liability-classified awards that have not been settled and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established by the date of adoption, and prospectively for all new awards granted after the date of adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 on January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-13 – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement" ("ASU 2018-13"). ASU 2018-13 provides amendments to ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), which remove the requirements surrounding the disclosure and policy of transfers between fair value levels and the valuation processes for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, ASU 2018-13 adds disclosure requirements for changes in unrealized gains and losses for Level 3 measurements and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses and unobservable inputs for Level 3 measurements should be applied prospectively, and all other amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-17 – In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17, "Consolidation (Topic 810) - Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities" ("ASU 2018-17"). ASU 2018-17 provides amendments to ASC 810, "Consolidation" ("ASC 810"), which states that any indirect interest held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be retrospectively applied with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

Note 7 – Marketable Securities and Certificates of Deposit

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of the Company's Marketable Securities as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were as follows:

Scheduled maturities of the Company's available-for-sale debt securities within the Securities Investments portfolio as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were as follows:

	June 30, 2019				December 31, 2018
	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value
Due within one year	$	618	$	620	$	391	$	391

Total	$	1,933	$	1,968	$	1,622	$	1,632

Since the Company has the ability and intent to hold available-for-sale securities until a recovery of fair value is equal to an amount approximating its amortized cost, which may be at maturity, and has not incurred credit losses on its securities, it does not consider such unrealized loss positions to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2019.

These securities are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company had net realized and unrealized gains of $2,112 and $8,699 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $1,304 and $1,116 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Note 8 – Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value, Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell and Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The Company, through Evercore Casa de Bolsa, S.A. de C.V. ("ECB"), enters into repurchase agreements with clients seeking overnight money market returns whereby ECB transfers to the clients Mexican government securities in exchange for cash and concurrently agrees to repurchase the securities at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus a stipulated premium or interest factor. ECB deploys the cash received from, and acquires the securities deliverable to, clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market, which the Company reflects as Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, or by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties. The Company accounts for these repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements as collateralized financing transactions, which are carried at their contract amounts, which approximate fair value given that the contracts mature the following business day. The Company records a liability on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in relation to repurchase transactions executed with clients as Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase. The Company records as assets on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value (where the Company has acquired the

securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market) and Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell (where the Company has acquired the securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase agreements by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties). These Mexican government securities had an estimated average time to maturity of approximately 1.5 years, as of June 30, 2019, and are pledged as collateral against repurchase agreements. Generally, collateral is posted equal to the contract value at inception and is subject to market changes. These repurchase agreements are primarily with institutional customer accounts managed by ECB and permit the counterparty to pledge the securities.

ECB has procedures in place to monitor the daily risk limits for positions taken, as well as the credit risk based on the collateral pledged under these agreements against their contract value from inception to maturity date. The daily risk measure is Value at Risk ("VaR"), which is a statistical measure, at a 98% confidence level, of the potential daily losses from adverse market movements in an ordinary market environment based on a historical simulation using the prior year's historical data. ECB's Risk Management Committee (the "Committee") has established a policy to maintain VaR at levels below 0.1% of the value of the portfolio. If at any point in time the threshold is exceeded, ECB personnel are alerted by an automated interface with ECB's trading systems and begin to make adjustments in the portfolio in order to mitigate the risk and bring the portfolio in compliance. Concurrently, ECB personnel must notify the Committee of the variance and the actions taken to reduce the exposure to loss.

In addition to monitoring VaR, ECB periodically performs discrete stress tests ("Stress Tests") to assure that the level of potential losses that would arise from extreme market movements that may not be anticipated by VaR measures are within acceptable levels.

Investments in Private Equity

Private Equity Funds

The Company's investments related to private equity partnerships and associated entities include investments in Evercore Capital Partners II, L.P. ("ECP II"), Glisco Partners II, L.P. ("Glisco II"), Glisco Partners III, L.P. ("Glisco III"), Glisco Capital Partners IV ("Glisco IV"), Trilantic Capital Partners Associates IV, L.P. ("Trilantic IV"), Trilantic Capital Partners V, L.P. ("Trilantic V") and Trilantic Capital Partners VI (North America), L.P. ("Trilantic VI"). Portfolio holdings of the private equity funds are carried at fair value. Accordingly, the Company reflects its pro rata share of unrealized gains and losses occurring from changes in fair value. Additionally, the Company reflects its pro rata share of realized gains, losses and carried interest associated with any investment realizations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made an investment of $2,642 in Trilantic VI.

On December 31, 2014, ECP II was terminated. The Company's investment at June 30, 2019 of $765 is comprised of its remaining interest in the general partner, comprised in cash.

A summary of the Company's investments in the private equity funds as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was as follows:

	June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
ECP II	$	765	$	795
Glisco II, Glisco III and Glisco IV	3,919		3,880
Trilantic IV, Trilantic V and Trilantic VI	10,412		5,125
Total Private Equity Funds	$	15,096	$	9,800

Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on private equity fund investments were ($123) and ($127) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and ($204) and $142 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In the event the funds perform poorly, the Company may be obligated to repay certain carried interest previously distributed. As of June 30, 2019, there was no previously distributed carried interest received from the funds that was subject to repayment.

General Partners of Private Equity Funds which are VIEs

The Company has concluded that Evercore Partners II, L.L.C. ("EP II L.L.C."), the former general partner of ECP II, is a VIE pursuant to ASC 810. The Company owned 8%-9% of the carried interest earned by the general partner of ECP II. The Company's assessment of the design of EP II L.L.C. resulted in the determination that the Company is not acting as an agent for other members of the general partner and is a passive holder of interests in the fund, evidenced by the fact that the Company is a non-voting, non-managing member of the general partner and, therefore, has no authority in directing the management operations of the general partner. Furthermore, the Company does not have the obligation to absorb significant losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially have a significant impact to EP II L.L.C. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of EP II L.L.C. and has not consolidated EP II L.L.C. in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Following the Glisco transaction, the Company concluded that Glisco Capital Partners II, Glisco Capital Partners III and Glisco Manager Holdings LP are VIEs and that the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The Company's assessment of the primary beneficiary of these entities included assessing which parties have the power to significantly impact the economic performance of these entities and the obligation to absorb losses, which could be potentially significant to the entities, or the right to receive benefits from the entities that could be potentially significant. Neither the Company nor its related parties will have the ability to make decisions that significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. Further, as a limited partner in these entities, the Company does not possess substantive participating rights. The Company had assets of $5,108 and $5,445 included in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to these unconsolidated VIEs, representing the carrying value of the Company's investments in the entities. The Company's exposure to the obligations of these VIEs is generally limited to its investments in these entities. The Company's maximum exposure to loss as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $7,672 and $8,048, respectively, which represents the carrying value of the Company's investments in these VIEs, as well as any unfunded commitments to the current and future funds.

Investment in Trilantic Capital Partners

In 2010, the Company made a limited partnership investment in Trilantic in exchange for 500 Class A limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class A LP Units") having a fair value of $16,090. This investment gave the Company the right to invest in Trilantic's current and future private equity funds, beginning with Trilantic Fund IV. The Company accounts for this investment at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The Company allocates the cost of this investment to its investments in current and future Trilantic funds as the Company satisfies the capital calls of these funds. The Company bases this allocation on its expectation of Trilantic's future fundraising ability and performance. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, $147 and $2,642 of this investment was allocated to Trilantic Fund V and VI, respectively. From 2010 to 2018, $4,980 and $1,178 of this investment was allocated to Trilantic Fund V and IV, respectively. This investment had a balance of $7,143 and $9,932 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company has a $5,000 commitment to invest in Trilantic Fund V, of which $436 was unfunded at June 30, 2019. The Company also has a $12,000 commitment to invest in Trilantic Fund VI, of which $9,358 was unfunded at June 30, 2019.

This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes and had a balance of $1,079 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

In May 2019, the Company received preferred equity securities in a private company in exchange for advisory services. This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes and had a balance of $934 as of June 30, 2019.

Following the Glisco transaction in 2016, the Company recorded an investment in Glisco Manager Holdings LP representing the fair value of the deferred consideration resulting from this transaction. This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The Company amortizes the balance of its investment as distributions are received related to the deferred consideration. This investment had a balance of $1,253 and $1,609 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Note 10 – Leases

Operating Leases – The Company leases office space under non-cancelable lease agreements, which expire on various dates through 2034. The Company reflects lease expense over the lease terms on a straight-line basis. Occupancy lease agreements, in addition to base rentals, generally are subject to escalation provisions based on certain costs incurred by the landlord. The Company does not have any leases with variable lease payments. Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations includes occupancy rental expense relating to operating leases of $12,221 and $23,256 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $10,454 and $20,571 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

In conjunction with the lease of office space, the Company has entered into letters of credit in the amounts of approximately $5,518 and $5,502, which are secured by cash that is included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company has entered into various operating leases for the use of office equipment (primarily computers, printers, copiers and other IT related equipment). Rental expense for office equipment totaled $1,004 and $1,927 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $799 and $1,259 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Rental expense for office equipment is included in Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company uses its secured incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The determination of an appropriate incremental borrowing rate requires significant assumptions and judgment. The Company's incremental borrowing rate was calculated based on the Company's recent debt issuances and current market conditions. The Company scales the rates appropriately depending on the life of the leases.

The Company incurred net operating cash outflows of $8,485 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 related to its operating leases, which were net of cash received from lease incentives of $10,062.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily-available active quoted prices or for which

EVERCORE INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars and share / unit amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)

fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level I – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The type of investments included in Level I include listed equities, listed derivatives and treasury bills. As required by ASC 820, the Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.

Level II – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. The estimated fair values of the Corporate Bonds, Municipal Bonds, Other Debt Securities and Securities Investments held at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are based on prices provided by external pricing services.

Level III – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

The following table presents the categorization of investments and certain other financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

	June 30, 2019
	Level I		Level II		Level III		Total

(1) Includes $25,313 and $24,415 of treasury bills, municipal bonds and commercial paper classified within Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

(2) Includes $6,121 and $6,326 of treasury bills and notes and municipal bonds classified within Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

The Company had no transfers between fair value levels during the six months ended June 30, 2019 or the year ended December 31, 2018.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the holders of the 2019 Private Placement Notes will have the right to require the Company to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the 2019 Private Placement Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The 2019 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum tangible net worth, and customary events of default.

(a) The Company has outstanding Class J limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class J LP Units"), which convert into Class E limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class E LP Units") and ultimately become exchangeable into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Class J LP Units were dilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been included in the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders under the if-converted method. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all Class J LP Units are converted into Class A Shares.

(b) The Company also has outstanding Class A and E LP Units in Evercore LP, which give the holders the right to receive Class A Shares upon exchange on a one-for-one basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Class A and E LP Units were antidilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders. The units that would have been included in the denominator of the computation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common

shareholders if the effect would have been dilutive were 5,312 and 5,201 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and 5,132 and 5,179 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The adjustment to the numerator, diluted net income attributable to Class A common shareholders, if the effect would have been dilutive, would have been $11,021 and $19,191 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $9,114 and $20,459 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all vested Class A LP Units and all Class E LP Units are converted into Class A Shares, that all earnings attributable to those shares are attributed to Evercore Inc. and that the Company is subject to the statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional corporate tax structure in the U.S. at prevailing corporate tax rates. The Company does not anticipate that the Class A and E LP Units will result in a dilutive computation in future periods.

(c) The Company has outstanding Class I-P units of Evercore LP ("Class I-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class I limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class I LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, and outstanding Class K-P units of Evercore LP ("Class K-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class K limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class K LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, as they are subject to certain performance thresholds being achieved. For the purposes of calculating diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders, the Company's Class I-P and Class K-P Units are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding as of the beginning of the period in which all necessary performance conditions have been satisfied. If all necessary performance conditions have not been satisfied by the end of the period, the number of shares that are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding is based on the number of shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the performance period. The Units that were assumed to be converted to an equal number of Class A Shares for purposes of computing diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders were 400 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

The shares of Class B common stock have no right to receive dividends or a distribution on liquidation or winding up of the Company. The shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings of the Company and no earnings are allocable to such class. Accordingly, basic and diluted net income per share of Class B common stock have not been presented.

Note 16 – Share-Based and Other Deferred Compensation

LP Units

Equities business - In conjunction with the acquisition of the operating businesses of International Strategy & Investment ("ISI") in 2014, the Company issued Evercore LP units and interests which have been treated as compensation.

In July 2017, the Company exchanged all of the previously outstanding 4,148 Class H limited partnership interests of Evercore LP ("Class H LP Interests") for 1,012 vested (963 of which were subject to certain liquidated damages and continued employment provisions) and 938 unvested Class J LP Units. These units convert into an equal amount of Class E LP Units, and become exchangeable into Class A Shares of the Company, ratably on February 15, 2018, 2019 and 2020. These Class J LP Units have the same vesting and delivery schedule, acceleration and forfeiture triggers, and distribution rights as the Class H LP Interests. In connection with this exchange, one share of Class B common stock has been issued to each holder of Class J LP Units, which entitles each holder to one vote on all matters submitted generally to holders of Class A and Class B common stock for each Class E LP Unit and Class J LP Unit held. As the number of Class J LP Units exchanged was within the number of Class H LP Interests that the Company determined were probable of being exchanged on the date of modification, the Company is expensing the previously unrecognized grant date fair value of the Class H LP Interests ratably over the remaining vesting period of the Class J LP Units. Compensation expense related to the Class J LP Units was $3,700 and $7,749 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $3,700 and $7,572 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

On February 15, 2019, 632 Class J LP Units vested and were converted to an equal amount of Class E LP Units.

Other Performance-based Awards - In November 2016, the Company issued 400 Class I-P Units in conjunction with the appointment of the Executive Chairman. These Class I-P Units convert into a specified number of Class I LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent on the achievement of certain market and service conditions, subject to vesting upon specified termination events (including retirement, upon satisfying certain eligibility criteria, on or following January 15, 2022, subject to a one year prior written notice requirement) or a change in control. These Class I-P Units are segregated into two groups of 200 units each, with share price threshold vesting conditions which are required to exceed a certain level for 20 consecutive trading days (which were met as of March 31, 2017). The Company determined the fair value of the award to be $24,412 and is expensing the award ratably over the implied service period, which ends on March 1, 2022. As the award contains market-based conditions, the entire expense will be recognized if the award does not vest for any reason other than the service

conditions. Compensation expense related to this award was $1,152 and $2,291 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In November 2017, the Company issued 64 Class K-P Units to an employee of the Company. These Class K-P Units convert into a specified number of Class K LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through December 31, 2021. An additional 16 Class K-P Units may be issued contingent upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through December 31, 2021. The Company determined the fair value of the award probable to vest as of June 30, 2019 to be $5,000 and records expense for these units over the service period.

In June 2019, the Company issued 220 Class K-P Units to an employee of the Company. These Class K-P Units convert into a number of Class K LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent and based upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through February 4, 2023 for the first tranche, which consists of 120 Class K-P Units convertible into a number of Class K LP Units, and February 4, 2028 for the second tranche, which consists of 100 Class K-P Units convertible into a number of Class K LP Units. The Company determined the fair value of the award probable to vest as of June 30, 2019 to be $5,771 and records expense for these units over the service period.

Compensation expense related to the Class K-P Units was $338 and $634 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $299 and $595 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Stock Incentive Plan

During 2016, the Company's stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan"). The 2016 Plan, among other things, authorizes an additional 10,000 shares of the Company's Class A Shares. The 2016 Plan permits the Company to grant to key employees, directors and consultants incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs and other awards based on the Company's Class A Shares. The Company intends to use newly-issued Class A Shares to satisfy any awards under the 2016 Plan and its predecessor plan. Class A Shares underlying any award granted under the 2016 Plan that expire, terminate or are canceled or satisfied for any reason without being settled in stock again become available for awards under the plans. The total shares available to be granted in the future under the 2016 Plan was 2,872 and 5,399 as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The Company also grants, at its discretion, dividend equivalents, in the form of unvested RSU awards, or deferred cash dividends, concurrently with the payment of dividends to the holders of Class A Shares, on all unvested RSU grants awarded in conjunction with annual bonuses, as well as new hire awards. The dividend equivalents have the same vesting and delivery terms as the underlying RSU award.

The Company estimates forfeitures in the aggregate compensation cost to be amortized over the requisite service period of its awards. The Company periodically monitors its estimated forfeiture rate and adjusts its assumptions to the actual occurrence of forfeited awards. A change in estimated forfeitures is recognized through a cumulative adjustment in the period of the change. 

Equity Grants

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, pursuant to the 2016 Plan, the Company granted employees 2,526 RSUs that are Service-based Awards. Service-based Awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2019 had grant date fair values of $72.11 to $96.22 per share, with an average value of $91.34 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 2,346 Service-based Awards vested and 49 Service-based Awards were forfeited. Compensation expense related to Service-based Awards, including RSUs granted to the Executive Chairman in November 2016, was $56,526 and $112,144 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $46,375 and $89,106 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Deferred Cash

The Company's deferred cash compensation program provides participants the ability to elect to receive a portion of their deferred compensation in cash, which is indexed to notional investment portfolios selected by the participant and vests ratably over four years and requires payment upon vesting. The Company granted $93,366 of deferred cash awards pursuant to the deferred cash compensation program during the first quarter of 2019.

In November 2016, the Company granted a restricted cash award in conjunction with the appointment of the Executive Chairman with a target payment amount of $35,000, of which $11,000 vested on March 1, 2019 and $6,000 is scheduled to vest on each of the first four anniversaries of March 1, 2019, provided that the Executive Chairman continues to remain employed

through each such vesting date, subject to vesting upon specified termination events (including retirement, upon satisfying certain eligibility criteria, on or following May 1, 2019, subject to a six month prior written notice requirement) or a change in control. The Company has the discretion to increase (by an amount up to $35,000) or decrease (by an amount up to $8,750) the total amount payable under this award.

In 2017, the Company granted deferred cash awards of $29,500 to certain employees. These awards vest in five equal installments over the period ending June 30, 2022, subject to continued employment. The Company records expense for these awards ratably over the vesting period.

Compensation expense related to deferred cash awards was $25,375 and $52,768 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $15,750 and $28,341 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Long-term Incentive Plan

The Company's Long-term Incentive Plan provides for incentive compensation awards to Advisory Senior Managing Directors, excluding executive officers of the Company, who exceed defined benchmark results over four-year performance periods beginning January 1, 2013 (the "2013 Long-term Incentive Plan") and January 1, 2017 (the "2017 Long-term Incentive Plan"). The 2013 Long-term Incentive Plan was paid in cash in installments in 2017, 2018 and the first quarter of 2019. The 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan, which aggregates $82,021 of long-term liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019, is due to be paid, in cash or Class A Shares, at the Company's discretion, in three equal installments in the first quarter of 2021, 2022 and 2023, subject to employment at the time of payment. These awards are subject to retirement eligibility requirements. The Company periodically assesses the probability of the benchmarks being achieved and expenses the probable payout over the requisite service period of the award. The compensation expense related to these awards was $8,216 and $16,626 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $6,948 and $14,075 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In conjunction with this plan, the Company distributed cash payments of $19,516 and $4,532 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As of June 30, 2019, for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan, based on the Company's current assessment of the probability of the level of benchmarks being achieved, the total remaining expense to be accrued for this plan over the future vesting period ending March 15, 2023 is $77,933.

Employee Loans Receivable

Periodically, the Company provides new and existing employees with cash payments in the form of loans and/or other cash awards which are subject to ratable vesting terms with service requirements ranging from one to five years and in certain circumstances, subject to the achievement of performance requirements. Generally, the terms of these awards include a requirement of either full or partial repayment of these awards based on the terms of their employment agreements with the Company. In circumstances where the employee meets the Company's minimum credit standards, the Company amortizes these awards to compensation expense over the relevant service period which is generally the period they are subject to forfeiture. Compensation expense related to these awards was $5,741 and $9,346 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $4,787 and $8,109 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The remaining unamortized amount of these awards was $32,582 as of June 30, 2019.

Separation and Transition Benefits

The Company granted separation benefits to certain employees, resulting in expense included in Employee Compensation and Benefits of approximately $1,538 and $4,813 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $3,066 and $6,484 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In conjunction with these arrangements, the Company distributed cash payments of $1,533 and $3,257 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $2,997 and $5,873 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Note 17 – Commitments and Contingencies

For a further discussion of the Company's commitments, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

period, subject to certain conditions. Such commitments are satisfied in cash and are generally required to be made as investment opportunities are consummated by the private equity funds.

Lines of Credit – On June 24, 2016, Evercore Partners Services East L.L.C. ("East") entered into a loan agreement with PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC") for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30,000, to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. This facility is secured by East's accounts receivable and the proceeds therefrom, as well as certain assets of EGL, including certain of EGL's accounts receivable. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting covenants, as well as certain debt covenants that prohibit East and the Company from incurring other indebtedness, subject to specified exceptions. The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2019. Drawings under this facility bear interest at the prime rate. On January 2, 2018, East drew down $30,000 on this facility, which was repaid on March 2, 2018. On March 11, 2019, East drew down $30,000 on this facility, which was repaid on May 3, 2019. On June 21, 2019, East amended this facility with PNC such that, among other things, the interest rate provisions were modified to LIBOR plus 125 basis points and the maturity date was extended to October 31, 2020 (as amended, the "Existing PNC Facility").

On July 26, 2019, East entered into an additional loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20,000, to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. The facility is unsecured and matures on October 31, 2020, subject to an extension agreed to between East and PNC. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting requirements and debt covenants consistent with the Existing PNC Facility. Drawings under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points. East is only permitted to borrow under this facility if there is no undrawn availability under the Existing PNC Facility and must repay indebtedness under this facility prior to repaying indebtedness under the Existing PNC Facility.

ECB maintains a line of credit with BBVA Bancomer to fund its trading activities on an intra-day and overnight basis. The facility has a maximum aggregate principal amount of approximately $7,800 and is secured by trading securities. No interest is charged on the intra-day facility. The overnight facility is charged the Inter-Bank Balance Interest Rate plus 10 basis points. There have been no significant draw downs on ECB's line of credit since August 10, 2006. The line of credit is renewable annually.

Other Commitments – In addition, the Company enters into commitments to pay contingent consideration related to certain of its acquisitions. The Company paid $2,008 of its commitment for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of Kuna & Co, KG during the six months ended June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2019, the Company had a remaining commitment of $313 for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of Kuna & Co. KG.

The Company also had a commitment at June 30, 2019 for contingent consideration related to an arrangement with the former employer of certain RECA employees, which provides for contingent consideration to be paid to the former employer of up to $4,463, based on the completion of certain client engagements. The Company recognized expenses of $1,033 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 in Professional Fees on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations pursuant to this arrangement.

Restricted Cash – The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the statements of financial position that sum to the total of amounts shown in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

	June 30,
	2019		2018
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	374,321	$	403,929
Restricted Cash included in Other Assets	10,294		11,072
Total Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash shown in the Statement of Cash Flows	$	384,615	$	415,001

Restricted Cash included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition primarily represents letters of credit which are secured by cash as collateral for the lease of office space and security deposits for certain equipment. The restrictions will lapse when the leases end.

Foreign Exchange – On occasion, the Company enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts as an economic hedge against exchange rate risk for foreign currency denominated accounts receivable in EGL.

(dollars and share / unit amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)

The Company entered into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to sell 3.8 billion Japanese yen for $35,598 during the first quarter of 2019 as an economic hedge against the exchange rate risk for Japanese yen denominated accounts receivable in EGL. These contracts settled in April 2019.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company and its affiliates are involved in judicial or regulatory proceedings, arbitration or mediation concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its businesses, including contractual and employment matters. In addition, Mexican, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canadian, Dubai and United States government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, as well as state securities commissions in the United States, conduct periodic examinations and initiate administrative proceedings regarding the Company's business, including, among other matters, accounting and operational matters, that can result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, investment advisor, or its directors, officers or employees. In view of the inherent difficulty of determining whether any loss in connection with such matters is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated, particularly in cases where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages or where investigations and proceedings are in the early stages, the Company cannot estimate the amount of such loss or range of loss, if any, related to such matters, how or if such matters will be resolved, when they will ultimately be resolved, or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, might be. Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that it is not currently party to any material pending proceedings (including the matter described below), individually or in the aggregate, the resolution of which would have a material effect on the Company. Provisions for losses are established in accordance with ASC 450, "Contingencies" ("ASC 450") when warranted. Once established, such provisions are adjusted when there is more information available or when an event occurs requiring a change.

Beginning on or about November 16, 2016, several putative securities class action complaints were filed against Adeptus Health Inc. ("Adeptus") and certain others, including EGL as underwriter, in connection with Adeptus' June 2014 initial public offering and May 2015, July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. The cases were consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas where a consolidated complaint was filed asserting, in part, that the offering materials issued in connection with the four public offerings violated the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 by containing alleged misstatements and omissions. On April 19, 2017, Adeptus filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was subsequently removed as a defendant. On November 21, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint, and the defendants filed motions to dismiss on February 5, 2018. On September 12, 2018, the defendants' motions to dismiss were granted as to the claims relating to the initial public offering and the May 2015 secondary public offering, but denied as to the claims relating to the July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. EGL underwrote approximately 293 shares of common stock in the July 2015 secondary public offering, representing an aggregate offering price of approximately $30.8 million, but did not underwrite any shares in the June 2016 secondary public offering. On September 25, 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint relating only to the July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. On December 7, 2018, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, and the defendants filed briefs in opposition. On February 16, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint after having been granted leave to amend by the court. On March 4, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss as to the second amended complaint.

Note 18 – Regulatory Authorities

EGL is a U.S. registered broker-dealer and is subject to the net capital requirements of Rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Under the Alternative Net Capital Requirement, EGL's minimum net capital requirement is $250. EGL's regulatory net capital as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $228,797 and $331,097, respectively, which exceeded the minimum net capital requirement by $228,547 and $330,847, respectively.

Certain other non-U.S. subsidiaries are subject to various securities and banking regulations and capital adequacy requirements promulgated by the regulatory and exchange authorities of the countries in which they operate. These subsidiaries are in excess of their local capital adequacy requirements at June 30, 2019.

Evercore Trust Company, N.A. ("ETC"), which is limited to fiduciary activities, is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") and is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System. The Company, Evercore LP and ETC are subject to written agreements with the OCC that, among other things, require the Company and Evercore LP to maintain at least $5,000 in Tier 1 capital in ETC (or such other amount as the OCC may require) and maintain liquid assets in ETC in an amount at least equal to the greater of $3,500 or 180 days coverage of ETC's operating expenses. The Company was in compliance with the aforementioned agreements as of June 30, 2019.

Note 19 – Income Taxes

The Company's Provision for Income Taxes was $32,030 and $39,851 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $25,541 and $30,479 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate was 25% and 19% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and 24% and 14% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate reflects net excess tax benefits associated with the appreciation or depreciation in the Company's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price of $12,130 and $22,222 being recognized in the Company's Provision for Income Taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and resulted in a reduction in the effective tax rate of 6 and 10 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2019 and 2018 also reflects the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class E and J LP Units and Class I-P and K-P LP Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.

Additionally, the Company expects to recognize the income tax effects associated with the new global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions in the period incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, no additional income tax expense associated with the GILTI provisions has been reported and it is not expected to be material to the Company’s effective tax rate for the year.

The Company reported an increase in deferred tax assets of $205 associated with changes in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Marketable Securities and an increase of $262 associated with changes in Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Gain (Loss), in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company reported an increase in deferred tax assets of $130 associated with changes in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Marketable Securities and an increase of $1,108 associated with changes in Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Gain (Loss), in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, there was $615 of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, $501 would affect the effective tax rate. The Company anticipates approximately $122 of unrecognized tax benefits may be recognized within the year, as a result of the lapse in the statute of limitations.

The Company classifies interest relating to tax matters and tax penalties as a component of income tax expense in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Related to the unrecognized tax benefits, the Company accrued interest and penalties of $184 and $11, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company expects to reverse interest and penalty charges of $38 and $3 as a lapse in the statute of limitations within the year.

• Investment gains and losses, interest income and interest expense are allocated between the segments based on the segment in which the underlying asset or liability is held.

Other Revenue, net, included in each segment's Net Revenues includes income (losses) earned on marketable securities, including our investment funds which are used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program, certificates of deposit, cash and cash equivalents and on the Company’s debt security investment in G5, as well as adjustments to amounts

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Evercore Inc.'s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains, or incorporates by reference, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "outlook," "backlog," "believes," "expects," "potential," "probable," "continues," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "predicts," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates" or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties.

Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements and, based on various underlying assumptions and expectations, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in Evercore's business. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to, those described under "Risk Factors" discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included or incorporated by reference in this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise except as required by law.

We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can management assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Key Financial Measures

Revenue

Total revenues reflect revenues from our Investment Banking and Investment Management business segments that include fees for services, transaction-related client reimbursements plus other revenue. Net revenues reflect total revenues less interest expense.

Investment Banking. Our Investment Banking business earns fees from our clients for providing advice on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, leveraged buyouts, restructurings, activism and defense and similar corporate finance matters, and from underwriting and private placement activities, as well as commissions and fees from research and our sales and trading activities. The amount and timing of the fees paid vary by the type of engagement or services provided. In general, advisory fees are paid at the time we sign an engagement letter, during the course of the engagement or when an engagement is completed. The majority of our investment banking revenue consists of advisory fees for which realizations are dependent on the successful completion of transactions. A transaction can fail to be completed for many reasons which are outside of our control, including failure of parties to agree upon final terms with the counterparty, to secure necessary board or shareholder approvals, to secure necessary financing or to achieve necessary regulatory approvals, or due to adverse market conditions. In the case of bankruptcy engagements, fees are subject to approval of the court. Underwriting fees are recognized when the offering has been deemed to be completed and placement fees are generally recognized at the time of the client's acceptance of capital or capital commitments. Commissions and Related Fees includes commissions, which are recorded on a trade-date basis or, in the case of payments under commission sharing arrangements, on the date earned. Commissions and Related Fees also include subscription fees for the sales of research. Cash received before the subscription period ends is initially recorded as deferred revenue (a contract liability) and recognized as revenue over the remaining subscription period.

Revenue trends in our advisory business generally are correlated to the volume of merger and acquisition ("M&A") activity and/or restructuring activity, which tends to be counter-cyclical to M&A. However, deviations from this trend can occur in any given year or quarter for a number of reasons. For example, changes in our market share or the ability of our clients to close certain large transactions can cause our revenue results to diverge from the level of overall M&A or restructuring activity. Revenue trends in our equities business are correlated to market volumes, which generally decrease in periods of low market volatility or unfavorable

36

market or economic conditions. Revenue trends in our equities business may also be impacted by new regulation, such as the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II ("MiFID II"), which could impact the demand for our research and trading services from EU investors, as well as the manner in which institutional clients pay for research, including paying for research in cash rather than through trading commissions.

Investment Management. Our Investment Management business includes operations related to the management of the Wealth Management and Institutional Asset Management businesses and interests in private equity funds which we do not manage. Revenue sources primarily include management fees, which include fees earned from portfolio companies, fiduciary fees, performance fees (including carried interest) and gains (or losses) on our investments.

Management fees for third party clients generally represent a percentage of assets under management ("AUM"). Fiduciary fees, which are generally a function of the size and complexity of each engagement, are individually negotiated. We record performance fees upon the earlier of the termination of the investment fund or when the likelihood of clawback is mathematically improbable. Portfolio company fees include monitoring, director and transaction fees associated with services provided to the portfolio companies of the private equity funds we hold interests in. Gains and losses include both realized and unrealized gains and losses on principal investments, including those arising from our equity interest in investment partnerships.

Transaction-Related Client Reimbursements. In both our Investment Banking and Investment Management segments, we incur various transaction-related expenditures, such as travel and professional fees, in the course of performing our services. Pursuant to the engagement letters with our advisory clients, these expenditures may be reimbursable. We define these expenses, which are associated with revenue activities earned over time, as transaction-related expenses and record such expenditures as incurred and record revenue when it is determined that clients have an obligation to reimburse us for such transaction-related expenses. Client expense reimbursements are recorded as revenue on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations on the later of the date an engagement letter is executed or the date we pay or accrue the expense.

Other Revenue and Interest Expense. Other Revenue and Interest Expense is derived from investing customer funds in financing transactions. These transactions are principally repurchases and resales of Mexican government and government agency securities. Revenue and expenses associated with these transactions are recognized over the term of the repurchase or resale transaction.

Other Revenue also includes income (losses) earned on marketable securities, including our investment funds which are used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program, certificates of deposit, cash and cash equivalents and on our debt security investment in G5, as well as adjustments to amounts due pursuant to our tax receivable agreement, subsequent to its initial establishment related to changes in enacted tax rates, and gains (losses) resulting from foreign currency fluctuations, principal trading and realized and unrealized gains and losses on interests in private equity funds which we do not manage.

Interest Expense also includes interest expense associated with our Notes Payable, subordinated borrowings and lines of credit.

Operating Expenses

Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense. We include all payments for services rendered by our employees, as well as profits interests in our businesses that have been accounted for as compensation, in employee compensation and benefits expense.

We maintain compensation programs, including base salary, cash, deferred cash and equity bonus awards and benefits programs and manage compensation to estimates of competitive levels based on market conditions and performance. Our level of compensation, including deferred compensation, reflects our plan to maintain competitive compensation levels to retain key personnel, and it reflects the impact of newly-hired senior professionals, including related grants of equity awards which are generally valued at their grant date.

Increasing the number of high-caliber, experienced senior level employees is critical to our growth efforts. In our advisory businesses, these hires generally do not begin to generate significant revenue in the year they are hired.

Our annual compensation program includes share-based compensation awards and deferred cash awards as a component of the annual bonus awards for certain employees. These awards are generally subject to annual vesting requirements over a four-year period beginning at the date of grant, which occurs in the first quarter of each year; accordingly, the expense is generally amortized over the stated vesting period, subject to retirement eligibility. With respect to annual awards, our retirement eligibility criteria stipulates that if an employee has at least five years of continuous service, is at least 55 years of age and has a combined

37

age and years of service of at least 65 years, the employee is eligible for retirement. Beginning in 2019, we implemented additional retirement eligibility qualifying criteria, for awards issued in 2019 and after, that stipulates if an employee has at least 10 years of continuous service and is at least 60 years of age, the employee is also eligible for retirement. Retirement eligibility allows for continued vesting of awards after employees depart from the Company, provided they give the minimum advance notice, which is generally six months to one year.

We estimate forfeitures in the aggregate compensation cost to be amortized over the requisite service period of its awards. We periodically monitor our estimated forfeiture rate and adjust our assumptions to the actual occurrence of forfeited awards. A change in estimated forfeitures is recognized through a cumulative adjustment in the period of the change. 

Our Long-term Incentive Plan provides for incentive compensation awards to Advisory Senior Managing Directors, excluding executive officers, who exceed defined benchmark results over four-year performance periods beginning January 1, 2013 and January 1, 2017. These awards were paid, and are due to be paid, in cash or Class A Shares, at our discretion, in three equal installments in the first quarter of 2017, 2018 and 2019 (for the performance period beginning on January 1, 2013) and in the first quarter of 2021, 2022 and 2023 (for the performance period beginning on January 1, 2017), subject to employment at the time of payment. These awards are subject to retirement eligibility requirements.

From time to time, we also grant performance awards to certain individuals which include both performance and service based vesting requirements. See Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Non-Compensation Expenses. The balance of our operating expenses includes costs for occupancy and equipment rental, professional fees, travel and related expenses, communications and information technology services, depreciation and amortization, execution, clearing and custody fees, acquisition and transition costs and other operating expenses. We refer to all of these expenses as non-compensation expenses.

Other Expenses

Other Expenses include the following:

• Amortization of LP Units and Certain Other Awards – Includes amortization costs associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units issued in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI and certain other related awards.

• Special Charges – Includes expenses in 2019 related to the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements in conjunction with the previously announced expansion of our headquarters in New York. Includes expenses in 2018 related to separation benefits and costs for the termination of certain contracts associated with closing our agency trading platform in the U.K.

• Acquisition and Transition Costs – Includes costs incurred in connection with acquisitions, divestitures and other ongoing business development initiatives, primarily comprised of professional fees for legal and other services.

• Intangible Asset and Other Amortization – Includes amortization of intangible assets and other purchase accounting-related amortization associated with certain acquisitions.

Income from Equity Method Investments

Our share of the income (loss) from our equity interests in ABS, Atalanta Sosnoff and Luminis are included within Income from Equity Method Investments, as a component of Income Before Income Taxes, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Provision for Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes" which requires the recognition of tax benefits or expenses on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of our assets and liabilities. Excess tax benefits and deficiencies associated with the appreciation or depreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price are recognized in our Provision for Income Taxes. In addition, net deferred tax assets are impacted by changes to statutory tax rates in the period of enactment.

Noncontrolling Interest

We record noncontrolling interest relating to the ownership interests of certain of our current and former Senior Managing Directors and other officers and their estate planning vehicles in Evercore LP, as well as the portions of our operating subsidiaries

38

not owned by Evercore. As described in Note 14 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements herein, Evercore Inc. is the sole general partner of Evercore LP and has a majority economic interest in Evercore LP. As a result, Evercore Inc. consolidates Evercore LP and records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in Evercore LP held by the limited partners.

We generally allocate net income or loss to participating noncontrolling interests held at Evercore LP and at the operating entity level, where required, by multiplying the relative ownership interest of the noncontrolling interest holders for the period by the net income or loss of the entity to which the noncontrolling interest relates. In circumstances where the governing documents of the entity to which the noncontrolling interest relates require special allocations of profits or losses to the controlling and noncontrolling interest holders, then the net income or loss of these entities is allocated based on these special allocations.

Asset Management and Administration Fees increased 2% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 119% higher than for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which was primarily attributable to gains on the investment funds portfolio, which is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program.

Total Operating Expenses were $397.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $337.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $59.5 million, or 18%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $310.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $48.7 million,

40

or 19%, versus expense of $261.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs resulting from the expansion of our businesses, including costs associated with new senior hires and increased compensation costs from share-based and other deferred compensation arrangements, as well as increased annual incentive compensation related to the 18% increase in Net Revenues. Headcount increased 9% from June 30, 2018 to June 30, 2019. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $86.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $10.8 million, or 14%, versus $75.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Non-compensation operating expenses increased compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily driven by increased headcount, increased occupancy costs, principally related to higher expenses associated with the expansion of our headquarters in New York, and increased costs related to technology initiatives.

Total Other Expenses of $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 included compensation costs of $3.7 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units and certain other awards granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI, Special Charges of $1.0 million related to the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and intangible asset and other amortization of $2.2 million.

As a result of the factors noted above, Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense as a percentage of Net Revenues was 59% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, flat compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Income from Equity Method Investments was $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in earnings from ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $32.0 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 25%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $25.5 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 24%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2019, reflects an additional tax expense of $0.03 million and for the three months ended June 30, 2018 an additional deduction of $0.4 million due to the impact associated with the appreciation or depreciation in the Company's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price, the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class E and J LP Units and Class I-P and K-P Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest was $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $12.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs resulting from the expansion of our businesses, including costs associated with new senior hires and increased compensation costs from share-based and other deferred compensation arrangements. Non-compensation expenses as a component of Operating Expenses were $167.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $19.9 million, or 14%, versus $147.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Non-compensation operating expenses increased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily driven by increased headcount, increased occupancy costs, principally related to higher expenses associated with the expansion of our headquarters in New York, increased costs related to technology initiatives and

41

increased professional fees. In addition, the increase in Non-compensation expenses versus last year also reflects an increase in client related expenses which are subject to reimbursement from clients currently and in future periods.

As a result of the factors noted above, Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense as a percentage of Net Revenues was 59% for the six months ended June 30, 2019, flat compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Income from Equity Method Investments was $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in earnings from Luminis and Atalanta Sosnoff during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $39.9 million, which reflected an effective tax rate of 19%.

Investment Banking Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 versus June 30, 2018

Net Investment Banking Revenues were $516.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $435.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which represented an increase of 19%. We earned 225 fees from Advisory clients for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 216 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, representing a 4% increase. We had 81 fees earned in excess of $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 85 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, representing a 5% decrease. The increase in revenues from the three months ended June 30, 2018 primarily reflects an increase of $80.6 million, or 22%, in Advisory Fees, reflecting an increase in the number and size of Advisory fees. Underwriting Fees decreased $4.2 million, or 20%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in Underwriting Fees from the three months ended June 30, 2018 primarily reflects a decrease in the size of certain transactions versus the prior year. We participated in 16 underwriting transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2019 (compared to 11 for the three months ended June 30, 2018), 10 of which were as a bookrunner (compared to 8 for the three months ended June 30, 2018). Commissions and Related Fees decreased $2.4 million, or 5%, principally driven by the trend of institutional clients adjusting the level of payments for research services. Other Revenue, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was higher than the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily reflecting gains on the investment funds portfolio, which is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program.

Operating Expenses were $385.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $327.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $58.2 million, or 18%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $302.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $254.4 million for the three

44

months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $47.8 million, or 19%. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs resulting from the expansion of our businesses, including costs associated with new senior hires and increased compensation costs from share-based and other deferred and incentive compensation arrangements, as well as increased annual incentive compensation related to the 19% increase in Net Revenues. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $83.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $72.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $10.5 million, or 14%. Non-compensation operating expenses increased from the prior year primarily driven by increased headcount within the business, increased occupancy costs, principally related to higher expenses associated with the expansion of our headquarters in New York, and increased costs related to technology initiatives.

Other Expenses of $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 included compensation costs of $3.7 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units and certain other awards granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI, Special Charges of $1.0 million related to the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and intangible asset and other amortization of $2.2 million. Other Expenses of $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 included compensation costs of $3.7 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units and certain other awards granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI and intangible asset and other amortization of $2.2 million.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 versus June 30, 2018

Net Investment Banking Revenues were $917.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $885.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which represented an increase of 4%. We earned 362 fees from Advisory clients for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 355 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing a 2% increase. We had 149 fees earned in excess of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 146 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing a 2% increase. The increase in revenues from the six months ended June 30, 2018 primarily reflects an increase of $28.1 million, or 4%, in Advisory Fees, reflecting an increase in the number and size of Advisory fees. Underwriting Fees decreased $7.5 million, or 15%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in Underwriting Fees from the six months ended June 30, 2018 primarily reflects a decrease in the size of certain transactions versus the prior year. We participated in 39 underwriting transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (compared to 31 in 2018), 27 of which were as a bookrunner (compared to 25 in 2018). Commissions and Related Fees decreased $3.5 million, or 4%, principally driven by the trend of institutional clients adjusting the level of payments for research services. Other Revenue, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, was higher than the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily reflecting gains on the investment funds portfolio, which is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program.

Operating Expenses were $697.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $658.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $38.5 million, or 6%. Employee Compensation and Benefits Expense, as a component of Operating Expenses, was $537.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $518.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $19.2 million, or 4%. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs resulting from the expansion of our businesses, including costs associated with new senior hires and increased compensation costs from share-based and other deferred and incentive compensation arrangements. Non-compensation expenses, as a component of Operating Expenses, were $160.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $140.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $19.3 million, or 14%. Non-compensation operating expenses increased from the prior year primarily driven by increased headcount within the business, increased occupancy costs, principally related to higher expenses associated with the expansion of our headquarters in New York, increased costs related to technology initiatives and increased professional fees. In addition, the increase in Non-compensation expenses versus last year also reflects an increase in client related expenses which are subject to reimbursement from clients currently and in future periods.

Other Expenses of $14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 included compensation costs of $7.8 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units and certain other awards granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI, Special Charges of $2.1 million related to the acceleration of depreciation expense for leasehold improvements in conjunction with the expansion of our headquarters in New York and intangible asset and other amortization of $4.3 million. Other Expenses of $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included compensation costs of $7.7 million associated with the vesting of Class J LP Units and certain other awards granted in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI, Special Charges of $1.9 million related to separation benefits and costs of terminating certain contracts associated with closing the agency trading platform in the U.K. and intangible asset and other amortization of $4.3 million.

Investment Management Results of Operations

Our Investment Management segment includes the following activities:

• Wealth Management – conducted through EWM and ETC. Fee-based revenues from EWM are primarily earned on a percentage of AUM, while ETC primarily earns fees from negotiated trust services.

• Institutional Asset Management – conducted through ECB. Fee-based revenues from ECB are primarily earned on a percentage of AUM.

• Private Equity – conducted through our investment interests in private equity funds. We maintain a limited partner's interest in Glisco II, Glisco III and Glisco IV, as well as Glisco Manager Holdings LP and the general partners of the Glisco Funds. We receive our portion of the management fees earned by Glisco Partners Inc. ("Glisco") from Glisco Manager Holdings LP. We are passive investors and do not participate in the management of any Glisco sponsored funds. We are also passive investors in Trilantic IV, Trilantic V and Trilantic VI. In the event the private equity funds perform below certain thresholds we may be obligated to repay certain carried interest previously distributed. As of June 30, 2019, there was no previously distributed carried interest received from the funds that was subject to repayment.

• We also hold interests in ABS and Atalanta Sosnoff that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The results of these investments are included within Income from Equity Method Investments.

Assets Under Management

AUM for our Investment Management businesses of $10.1 billion at June 30, 2019 increased compared to $9.1 billion at December 31, 2018. The amounts of AUM presented in the table below reflect the assets for which we charge a management fee. These assets reflect the fair value of assets managed on behalf of Institutional Asset Management and Wealth Management clients. As defined in ASC 820, valuations performed for Level I investments are based on quoted prices obtained from active markets generated by third parties and Level II investments are valued through the use of models based on either direct or indirect observable inputs in the use of models or other valuation methodologies performed by third parties to determine fair value. For both the Level I and Level II investments, we obtain both active quotes from nationally recognized exchanges and third-party pricing services to determine market or fair value quotes, respectively. For Level III investments, pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair

46

value require significant management judgment or estimation. Wealth Management maintained 68% and 63% of Level I investments, 28% and 32% of Level II investments and 4% and 5% of Level III investments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Institutional Asset Management maintained 80% and 82% of Level I investments and 20% and 18% of Level II investments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The fees that we receive for providing investment advisory and management services are primarily driven by the level and composition of AUM. Accordingly, client flows, market movements, foreign currency fluctuations and changes in our product mix will impact the level of management fees we receive from our investment management businesses. Fees vary with the type of assets managed and the channel in which they are managed, with higher fees earned on equity assets and alternative investment funds, such as hedge funds and private equity funds, and lower fees earned on fixed income and cash management products. Clients will increase or reduce the aggregate amount of AUM that we manage for a number of reasons, including changes in the level of assets that they have available for investment purposes, their overall asset allocation strategy, our relative performance versus competitors offering similar investment products and the quality of our service. The fees we earn are also impacted by our investment performance, as the appreciation or depreciation in the value of the assets that we manage directly impacts our fees.

The following table summarizes AUM activity for the six months ended June 30, 2019:

	Wealth Management			Institutional Asset Management			Total

Our Wealth Management business serves individuals, families and related institutions delivering customized investment management, financial planning, and trust and custody services. Investment portfolios are tailored to meet the investment objectives of individual clients and reflect a blend of equity, fixed income and other products. Fees charged to clients reflect the composition of the assets managed and the services provided. Investment performance in the Wealth Management businesses is measured against appropriate indices based on the AUM, most frequently the S&P 500 and a composite fixed income index principally reflecting BarCap and MSCI indices.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, AUM for Wealth Management increased 10%, primarily reflecting an increase due to market appreciation. Wealth Management lagged the S&P 500 on a 1 year basis by approximately 3% and outperformed the S&P 500 on a 3 year basis by approximately 2% during the period. Wealth Management lagged the fixed income composite on a 1 and 3 year basis by approximately 50 basis points and 20 basis points, respectively. For the period, the S&P 500 was up approximately 19% and the fixed income composite was up approximately 4%.

Our Institutional Asset Management business reflects assets managed by ECB, which primarily manages Mexican Government and corporate fixed income securities, as well as equity products. ECB utilizes the IPC Index, which is a capitalization weighted index of leading equities traded on the Mexican Stock Exchange and the Cetes 28 Index, which is an index of Treasury Bills issued by the Mexican Government, as benchmarks in reviewing their performance and managing their investment decisions.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, AUM for Institutional Asset Management increased 10%, reflecting an 8% increase due to market appreciation and a 2% increase due to flows. ECB's AUM market appreciation reflects favorable market volatility, as well as the impact of the fluctuation of foreign currency. ECB outperformed the fixed income index on two of their three portfolios and lagged the equities index for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

AUM from our unconsolidated affiliates increased 10% compared to December 31, 2018, related to positive performance in Atalanta Sosnoff and ABS.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 versus June 30, 2018

Net Investment Management Revenues were $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $12.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which represented an increase of 15%. Asset Management and Administration Fees earned from the management of client portfolios increased 2% from the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily driven by an increase of $0.5 million in fees from Wealth Management clients, as associated AUM increased. Fee-based revenues included $0.01 million of revenues from performance fees for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Income from Equity Method Investments increased from the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily as a result of an increase in earnings from our investments in Atalanta Sosnoff and ABS.

Operating Expenses were $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $1.2 million, or 12%.

Net Investment Management Revenues were $28.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $26.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which represented an increase of 10%. Asset Management and Administration Fees earned from the management of client portfolios increased 4% from the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily driven by an increase of $1.0 million in fees from Wealth Management clients, as associated AUM increased. Fee-based revenues included $0.01 million of revenues from performance fees during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Income from Equity Method Investments decreased from the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily as a result of a decrease in earnings from our investment in ABS in 2019.

Operating Expenses were $24.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $22.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $2.2 million, or 10%.

Cash Flows

Our operating cash flows are primarily influenced by the timing and receipt of investment banking and investment management fees, and the payment of operating expenses, including incentive compensation to our employees and interest expense on our repurchase agreements, Notes Payable, subordinated borrowings and lines of credit, and the payment of income taxes. Investment Banking advisory fees are generally collected within 90 days of billing. However, placement fees may be collected within 180 days of billing, with fees related to private funds capital raising being collected in a period exceeding one year. Commissions earned from our agency trading activities are generally received from our clearing broker within 11 days. Fees from our Wealth Management and Institutional Asset Management businesses are generally billed and collected within 90 days. We traditionally pay a substantial portion of incentive compensation to personnel in the Investment Banking business and to executive officers during the first three months of each calendar year with respect to the prior year's results. Likewise, payments to fund investments related to hedging our deferred cash compensation plans are funded in the first three months of each calendar year. Our investing and financing cash flows are primarily influenced by activities to deploy capital to fund investments and acquisitions, raise capital through the issuance of stock or debt, repurchase of outstanding Class A Shares, and/or noncontrolling interest in Evercore LP, as well as our other subsidiaries, payment of dividends and other periodic distributions to our stakeholders. We generally make dividend payments and other distributions on a quarterly basis. We periodically draw down on our lines of credit to balance the timing of our operating, investing and financing cash flow needs. A summary of our operating, investing and financing cash flows is as follows:

Operating activities resulted in a net outflow of $135.1 million, primarily related to the payment of 2018 incentive compensation, partially offset by earnings. Cash of $68.3 million was provided by investing activities primarily related to the maturity of certificates of deposit, partially offset by purchases of furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements, primarily related to the expansion of our headquarters in New York. Financing activities during the period used cash of $347.5 million, primarily for purchases of treasury stock and noncontrolling interests, the payment of dividends and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash were $415.0 million at June 30, 2018, a decrease of $202.4 million versus Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash of $617.4 million at December 31, 2017. Operating activities resulted in a net inflow of $174.5 million, primarily related to earnings, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits. Cash of $126.4 million was used in investing activities primarily related to net purchases of marketable securities and purchases of certificates of deposit, which were partially offset by the maturity of certificates of deposit. Financing activities during the period used cash of $248.9 million, primarily for purchases of treasury stock and noncontrolling interests, the payment of dividends, distributions to noncontrolling interest holders and the repayment of outstanding subordinated borrowings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our current assets include Cash and Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities and Certificates of Deposit, Accounts Receivable and contract assets, included in Other Current Assets, relating to Investment Banking and Investment Management revenues. Our current liabilities include accrued expenses, accrued liabilities related to improvements in our leased facilities, accrued employee compensation and short-term borrowings. We traditionally have made payments for employee bonus awards and year-end distributions to partners in the first quarter of the year with respect to the prior year's results. In addition, payments in respect of deferred cash compensation arrangements and related investments are also made in the first quarter. From time to time, advances and/or commitments may also be granted to new employees at or near the date they begin employment, or to existing employees for the purpose of incentive or retention. Cash distributions related to partnership tax allocations are made to the partners of Evercore LP and certain other entities in accordance with our corporate estimated payment calendar; these payments are made prior to the end of each calendar quarter. In addition, dividends on Class A Shares, and related distributions to partners of Evercore LP, are paid when and if declared by the Board of Directors, which is generally quarterly.

We regularly monitor our liquidity position, including cash, other significant working capital, current assets and liabilities, long-term liabilities, lease commitments and related fixed assets, principal investment commitments related to our Investment Management business, dividends on Class A Shares, partnership distributions and other capital transactions, as well as other matters relating to liquidity and compliance with regulatory requirements. Our liquidity is highly dependent on our revenue stream from our operations, principally from our Investment Banking business, which is a function of closing advisory transactions and earning success fees, the timing and realization of which is irregular and dependent upon factors that are not subject to our control. Our revenue stream funds the payment of our expenses, including annual bonus payments, a portion of which are guaranteed, deferred compensation arrangements, interest expense on our repurchase agreements, Notes Payable, lines of credit and other financing arrangements and income taxes. Payments made for income taxes may be reduced by deductions taken for the increase in tax basis of our investment in Evercore LP. Certain of these tax deductions, when realized, require payment under our long-term liability, Amounts Due Pursuant to Tax Receivable Agreements. We intend to fund these payments from cash and cash equivalents on hand, principally derived from cash flows from operations. These tax deductions, when realized, will result in cash otherwise required to satisfy tax obligations becoming available for other purposes. Our Management Committee meets regularly to monitor our liquidity and cash positions against our short and long-term obligations, as well as our capital requirements and commitments. The result of this review contributes to management's recommendation to the Board of Directors as to the level of quarterly dividend payments, if any.

As a financial services firm, our businesses are materially affected by conditions in the global financial markets and economic conditions throughout the world. Revenue generated by our advisory activities is related to the number and value of the transactions in which we are involved. In addition, revenue related to our equities business is driven by market volumes and institutional investor trends, such as the trend to passive investment strategies. During periods of unfavorable market or economic conditions, the number and value of M&A transactions, as well as market volumes in equities, generally decrease, and they generally increase during periods of favorable market or economic conditions. Restructuring activity generally is counter-cyclical to M&A activity. In addition, during periods of unfavorable market conditions our Investment Management business may be impacted by reduced equity valuations and generate relatively lower revenue because fees we receive, either directly or through our affiliates, typically are in part based on the market value of underlying publicly-traded securities. Our profitability may also be adversely affected by our fixed costs and the possibility that we would be unable to scale back other costs within a time frame and in an amount sufficient to match any decreases in revenue relating to changes in market and economic conditions. Likewise, our liquidity may be adversely impacted by our contractual obligations, including lease obligations. Reduced equity valuations resulting from future adverse economic events and/or market conditions may impact our performance and may result in future net redemptions of AUM from our clients, which would generally result in lower revenues and cash flows. These adverse conditions could also have an impact on our goodwill impairment assessment, which is done annually, as of November 30th, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred.

Changes in regulation, market structure or business activity arising from the ongoing discussions over the U.K.'s implementation of its separation from the European Union may have a negative impact on our business operations in the U.K., and globally, over the intermediate term. We will continue to monitor and manage the potential implications of the separation, including assessing opportunities that may arise, as the potential impact on the U.K. and European economy becomes more evident.

We assess our equity method investments for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. These circumstances could include unfavorable market conditions or the loss of key personnel of the investee.

For a further discussion of risks related to our business, refer to "Risk Factors" in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Treasury and Noncontrolling Interest Repurchases

We periodically repurchase Class A Shares and/or LP Units into Treasury in order to offset the dilutive effect of equity awards granted as compensation (see Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information). The amount of cash required for these share repurchases is a function of the mix of equity and deferred cash compensation awarded for the annual bonus awards (see further discussion on deferred compensation under Other Commitments below). In addition, we may from time to time, purchase noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries.

On October 23, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized (in addition to the net settlement of equity awards) the repurchase of Class A Shares and/or LP Units so that from that date forward, we are able to repurchase an aggregate of the lesser of $750.0 million worth of Class A Shares and/or LP Units and 8.5 million Class A Shares and/or LP Units. Under this share repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual amount of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price, economic and market conditions and the objective to reduce the dilutive effect of equity awards granted as compensation to employees. This program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased 1,522,139 Class A Shares, at an average cost per share of $82.40, for $125.4 million pursuant to our repurchase program.

In addition, periodically, we buy shares into treasury from our employees in order to allow them to satisfy their minimum tax requirements for share deliveries under our share equity plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased 998,318 Class A Shares, at an average cost per share of $89.55 for $89.4 million primarily related to minimum tax withholding requirements of share deliveries.

The aggregate 2,520,457 Class A Shares repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2019, were acquired for aggregate purchase consideration of $214.8 million, at an average cost per share of $85.23.

On May 31, 2019, we purchased, at fair value, the remaining 10% of the Private Capital Advisory L.P. Common Interests for $28.4 million. On May 31, 2019, we purchased, at fair value, an additional 17% of the EWM Class A Units for $24.5 million (in cash of $21.8 million and the issuance of 31,383 Class A LP Units having a fair value of $2.7 million). On March 29, 2018, we purchased, at fair value, an additional 15% of Private Capital Advisory L.P. for $25.5 million.

Private Placement

On March 30, 2016, we issued an aggregate $170.0 million of senior notes, including: $38.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.88% Series A Notes, $67.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.23% Series B Notes, $48.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.48% Series C Notes and $17.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.58% Series D Notes pursuant to the 2016 Note Purchase Agreement dated as of March 30, 2016, among the Company and the purchasers party thereto in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

Interest on the 2016 Private Placement Notes is payable semi-annually and the 2016 Private Placement Notes are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. We may, at our option, prepay all, or from time to time any part of, the 2016 Private Placement Notes (without regard to Series), in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Private Placement Notes then outstanding at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus an applicable "make-whole amount." Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the holders of the 2016 Private Placement Notes will have the right to require us to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the 2016 Private Placement Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The 2016 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum interest coverage ratio, and customary events of default. As of June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.

On August 1, 2019, we issued $175.0 million and £25.0 million of senior unsecured notes through private placement. These notes reflect a weighted average life of 12 years and a weighted average stated interest rate of 4.26%. These notes include: $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.34% Series E senior notes due 2029, $60.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.44% Series F senior notes due 2031, $40.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.54% Series G senior notes due 2033 and £25.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.33% Series H senior notes due 2033, each of which were issued pursuant to the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement, among the Company and the purchasers party thereto in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

51

Interest on the 2019 Private Placement Notes is payable semi-annually and the 2019 Private Placement Notes are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. We may, at our option, prepay all, or from time to time any part of, the 2019 Private Placement Notes (without regard to Series), in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Private Placement Notes then outstanding at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus an applicable "make-whole amount." Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the holders of the 2019 Private Placement Notes will have the right to require us to prepay the entire unpaid principal amounts held by each holder of the 2019 Private Placement Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the prepayment date. The 2019 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring compliance with a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum tangible net worth, and customary events of default.

We intend to use the proceeds from the 2019 Private Placement Notes to fund investments in our business, including facilities and technology, and for other general corporate purposes.

Lines of Credit

On June 24, 2016, East entered into a loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million, to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. This facility is secured by East's accounts receivable and the proceeds therefrom, as well as certain assets of EGL, including certain of EGL's accounts receivable. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting covenants, as well as certain debt covenants that prohibit East and us from incurring other indebtedness, subject to specified exceptions. We and our consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2019. Drawings under this facility bear interest at the prime rate. On January 2, 2018, East drew down $30.0 million on this facility, which was repaid on March 2, 2018. On March 11, 2019, East drew down $30.0 million on this facility, which was repaid on May 3, 2019. On June 21, 2019, East amended this facility with PNC such that, among other things, the interest rate provisions were modified to LIBOR plus 125 basis points and the maturity date was extended to October 31, 2020.

On July 26, 2019, East entered into an additional loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20.0 million, to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. The facility is unsecured and matures on October 31, 2020, subject to an extension agreed to between East and PNC. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting requirements and debt covenants consistent with the Existing PNC Facility. Drawings under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points. East is only permitted to borrow under this facility if there is no undrawn availability under the Existing PNC Facility and must repay indebtedness under this facility prior to repaying indebtedness under the Existing PNC Facility.

ECB maintains a line of credit with BBVA Bancomer to fund its trading activities on an intra-day and overnight basis. The facility has a maximum aggregate principal amount of approximately $7.8 million and is secured by trading securities. No interest is charged on the intra-day facility. The overnight facility is charged the Inter-Bank Balance Interest Rate plus 10 basis points. There have been no significant draw downs on ECB's line of credit since August 10, 2006. The line of credit is renewable annually.

Other Commitments

We have a long-term liability, Amounts Due Pursuant to Tax Receivable Agreements, which requires payments to certain Senior Managing Directors. This liability was re-measured following the decrease in income tax rates in the U.S. in 2018 and future years in conjunction with the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on December 22, 2017.

We have made certain capital commitments with respect to our investment activities, as well as commitments related to contingent consideration from our acquisitions, which are included in the Contractual Obligations section below.

We had a commitment at June 30, 2019 for contingent consideration related to an arrangement with the former employer of certain RECA employees. For further information see Note 17 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Pursuant to deferred compensation and deferred consideration arrangements, we are obligated to make cash payments in future periods. Further, we make investments to hedge the economic risk of the return on deferred compensation. For further information see Notes 7 and 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Certain of our subsidiaries are regulated entities and are subject to capital requirements. For further information see Note 18 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

On July 1, 2018, we entered into a new lease agreement for office space at our headquarters at 55 East 52nd St., New York, New York. We expect to spend approximately $31 million, net of a tenant improvement allowance, to improve the premises under

52

this lease over the next twelve months. For further information see Note 10 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Collateralized Financing Activity at ECB

ECB enters into repurchase agreements with clients seeking overnight money market returns whereby ECB transfers to the clients Mexican government securities in exchange for cash and concurrently agrees to repurchase the securities at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus a stipulated premium or interest factor. ECB deploys the cash received from, and acquires the securities deliverable to, clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market or by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties. We account for these repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements as collateralized financing transactions. We record a liability on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in relation to repurchase transactions executed with clients as Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase. We record as assets on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value (where we have acquired the securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market) and Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell (where we have acquired the securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase agreements by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties). These Mexican government securities included in Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition have an estimated average time to maturity of approximately 1.5 years, as of June 30, 2019, and are pledged as collateral against repurchase agreements, which are collateralized financing agreements. Generally, collateral is posted equal to the contract value at inception and is subject to market changes. These repurchase agreements are primarily with institutional customer accounts managed by ECB, generally mature within one business day and permit the counterparty to pledge the securities. Increases and decreases in asset and liability levels related to these transactions are a function of growth in ECB's AUM, as well as clients' investment allocations requiring positioning in repurchase transactions.

ECB has procedures in place to monitor the daily risk limits for positions taken, as well as the credit risk based on the collateral pledged under these agreements against their contract value from inception to maturity date. The daily risk measure is VaR, which is a statistical measure, at a 98% confidence level, of the potential daily losses from adverse market movements in an ordinary market environment based on a historical simulation using the prior year's historical data. The Committee has established a policy to maintain VaR at levels below 0.1% of the value of the portfolio. If at any point in time the threshold is exceeded, ECB personnel are alerted by an automated interface with ECB's trading systems and begin to make adjustments in the portfolio in order to mitigate the risk and bring the portfolio in compliance. Concurrently, ECB personnel must notify the Committee of the variance and the actions taken to reduce the exposure to loss.

In addition to monitoring VaR, ECB periodically performs discrete Stress Tests to assure that the level of potential losses that would arise from extreme market movements that may not be anticipated by VaR measures are within acceptable levels. The table below includes a key stress test monitored by the Committee, noted as the sensitivity to a 100 basis point change in interest rates. This analysis assists ECB in understanding the impact of an extreme move in rates, assuring the Collateralized Financing portfolio is structured to maintain risk at an acceptable level, even in extreme circumstances.

The Committee meets monthly to analyze the overall market risk exposure based on positions taken, as well as the credit risk, based on the collateral pledged under these agreements against the contract value from inception to maturity date. In these meetings the Committee evaluates risk from an operating perspective, VaR, and an exceptional perspective, Stress Tests, to determine the appropriate level of risk limits in the current environment.

We periodically assess the collectability or credit quality related to securities purchased under agreements to resell.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, a summary of ECB's assets, liabilities and risk measures related to its collateralized financing activities is as follows:

53

	June 30, 2019						December 31, 2018
	Amount			Market Value of Collateral Received or (Pledged)			Amount			Market Value of Collateral Received or (Pledged)

Contractual Obligations

For a further discussion of our contractual obligations, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

We had total commitments (not reflected on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition) relating to future capital contributions to private equity funds of $12.4 million and $15.2 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. We expect to fund these commitments with cash flows from operations. We may be required to fund these commitments at any time through June 2028, depending on the timing and level of investments by our private equity funds.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not invest in any off-balance sheet vehicles that provide liquidity, capital resources, market or credit risk support, or engage in any leasing activities that expose us to any liability that is not reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Market Risk and Credit Risk

We, in general, are not a capital-intensive organization and as such, are not subject to significant market or credit risks. Nevertheless, we have established procedures to assess both the market and credit risk, as well as specific investment risk, exchange rate risk and credit risk related to receivables.

Market and Investment Risk

We hold equity securities and invest in exchange-traded funds and mutual funds, principally as an economic hedge against our deferred compensation program. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of our investments with these products, based on closing prices, was $65.4 million.

We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the market value of the investments would have resulted in a decrease in pre-tax income of approximately $6.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

See "-Liquidity and Capital Resources" above for a discussion of collateralized financing transactions at ECB.

54

Private Equity Funds

Through our principal investments in private equity funds and our ability to earn carried interest from these funds, we face exposure to changes in the estimated fair value of the companies in which these funds invest. Valuations and analysis regarding our investments in Trilantic and Glisco are performed by their respective professionals, and thus we are not involved in determining the fair value for the portfolio companies of such funds.

We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the value of the private equity funds would have resulted in a decrease in pre-tax income of approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Exchange Rate Risk

We have foreign operations, through our subsidiaries and affiliates, primarily in the United Kingdom and Mexico, as well as provide services to clients in other jurisdictions, which creates foreign exchange rate risk. We have not entered into any transactions to hedge our exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations in these subsidiaries through the use of derivative instruments or otherwise. An appreciation or depreciation of any of these currencies relative to the U.S. dollar would result in an adverse or beneficial impact to our financial results. A significant portion of our Latin American revenues has been, and will continue to be, derived from contracts denominated in Mexican pesos and Brazilian real and our European revenue and expenses are denominated primarily in British pounds sterling and euro. Historically, the value of these foreign currencies has fluctuated relative to the U.S. dollar. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the net impact of the fluctuation of foreign currencies recorded in Other Comprehensive Income within the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income was ($1.1) million. It is generally not our intention to hedge our foreign currency exposure in these subsidiaries, and we will reevaluate this policy from time to time.

In April 2019, we entered into three month futures contracts on a stock index fund with a notional amount of $14.8 million for $0.7 million, as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program. These contracts settled in June 2019. In accordance with ASC 815, these contracts are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in Other Revenue, Including Interest and Investments, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Credit Risks

We maintain cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions with high credit ratings. At times, we may maintain deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured ("FDIC") limits or enter into sweep arrangements where banks will periodically transfer a portion of our excess cash position to a money market fund. However, we believe that we are not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions or investment vehicles in which those deposits are held.

Accounts Receivable consists primarily of advisory fees and expense reimbursements billed to our clients. Other Assets includes long-term receivables from fees related to private funds capital raising. Receivables are reported net of any allowance for doubtful accounts. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide coverage for probable losses from our customer receivables and derive the estimate through specific identification for the allowance for doubtful accounts and an assessment of the client's creditworthiness. The Investment Banking and Investment Management receivables collection periods generally are within 90 days of invoice, with the exception of placement fees, which are generally collected within 180 days of invoice, and fees related to private funds capital raising, which are collected in a period exceeding one year. The collection period for restructuring transaction receivables may exceed 90 days. We recorded minimal bad debt expense for each of the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, total receivables recorded in Accounts Receivable amounted to $316.9 million and $309.1 million, respectively, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, and total receivables recorded in Other Assets amounted to $62.6 million and $60.9 million, respectively.

Other Current Assets and Other Assets include arrangements in which an estimate of variable consideration has been included in the transaction price and thereby recognized as revenue that precedes the contractual due date (contract assets). As of June 30, 2019, total contract assets recorded in Other Current Assets amounted to $75.5 million, and total contract assets recorded in Other Assets amounted to $7.3 million. As of December 31, 2018, total contract assets recorded in Other Current Assets and Other Assets amounted to $2.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

With respect to our Marketable Securities portfolio, which is comprised primarily of highly-rated corporate and municipal bonds, treasury bills, exchange-traded funds, mutual funds and securities investments, we manage our credit risk exposure by limiting concentration risk and maintaining investment grade credit quality. As of June 30, 2019, we had Marketable Securities of

55

$217.0 million, of which 70% were corporate and municipal securities and treasury bills and notes, primarily with S&P ratings ranging from AAA to BB+.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions regarding future events that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and their notes, including reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

We adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, which requires the recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. See Notes 2 and 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

For a discussion of other recently issued accounting standards and their impact or potential impact on our consolidated financial statements, see Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Market Risk and Credit Risk." We do not believe we face any material interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, equity price risk or other market risk except as disclosed in Item 2 " – Market Risk and Credit Risk" above.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

We have not made any changes during the three months ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

56

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company and its affiliates are involved in judicial or regulatory proceedings, arbitration or mediation concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its businesses, including contractual and employment matters. In addition, Mexican, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canadian, Dubai and United States government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, as well as state securities commissions in the United States, conduct periodic examinations and initiate administrative proceedings regarding the Company's business, including, among other matters, accounting and operational matters, that can result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, investment advisor, or its directors, officers or employees. In view of the inherent difficulty of determining whether any loss in connection with such matters is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated, particularly in cases where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages or where investigations and proceedings are in the early stages, the Company cannot estimate the amount of such loss or range of loss, if any, related to such matters, how or if such matters will be resolved, when they will ultimately be resolved, or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, might be. Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that it is not currently party to any material pending proceedings (including the matter described below), individually or in the aggregate, the resolution of which would have a material effect on the Company. Provisions for losses are established in accordance with ASC 450 when warranted. Once established, such provisions are adjusted when there is more information available or when an event occurs requiring a change.

Beginning on or about November 16, 2016, several putative securities class action complaints were filed against Adeptus and certain others, including EGL as underwriter, in connection with Adeptus’ June 2014 initial public offering and May 2015, July 2015, and June 2016 secondary public offerings. The cases were consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas where a consolidated complaint was filed asserting, in part, that the offering materials issued in connection with the four public offerings violated the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 by containing alleged misstatements and omissions. On April 19, 2017, Adeptus filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was subsequently removed as a defendant. On November 21, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint, and the defendants filed motions to dismiss on February 5, 2018. On September 12, 2018, the defendants' motions to dismiss were granted as to the claims relating to the initial public offering and the May 2015 secondary public offering, but denied as to the claims relating to the July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. EGL underwrote approximately 293,250 shares of common stock in the July 2015 secondary public offering, representing an aggregate offering price of approximately $30.8 million, but did not underwrite any shares in the June 2016 secondary public offering. On September 25, 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint relating only to the July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. On December 7, 2018, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, and the defendants filed briefs in opposition. On February 16, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint after having been granted leave to amend by the court. On March 4, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss as to the second amended complaint.

(1) Includes the repurchase of 979,480 and 18,838 shares in treasury transactions arising from net settlement of equity awards to satisfy minimum tax obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

(2) On October 23, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized (in addition to the net settlement of equity awards) the repurchase of Class A Shares and/or LP Units so that from that date forward, Evercore is able to repurchase an aggregate of the lesser of $750.0 million worth of Class A Shares and/or LP Units and 8.5 million Class A Shares and/or LP Units. Under this share repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual amount of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. This program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date.

(d)No Subsidiary is subject to any legal, regulatory, contractual or other restriction (other than as set forth on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law or similar statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.

The Company and its

7

Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that are not disclosed in the Disclosure Documents.

Section 5.6    Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, Etc

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes, and the execution, delivery and performance by each Subsidiary Guarantor of its Subsidiary Guaranty, will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, shareholders agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary.

Section 5.7    Governmental Authorizations, Etc

No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or the Notes, or in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Subsidiary Guarantor of its Subsidiary Guaranty, including without limitation, any action required in connection with the obtaining of Dollars or Sterling to make payments under this Agreement or the Notes.

Section 5.8    Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders

(a)There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is (i) in default under any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (ii) in violation of any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or (iii) in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, the USA PATRIOT Act or any of the other laws and regulations that are referred to in Section 5.16), which default or violation could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.9    Taxes

8

The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any filings or payments related to taxes and assessments (i) which, individually or in the aggregate, is not Material or (ii) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of U.S. federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate. The U.S. federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been finally determined (whether by reason of completed audits or the statute of limitations having run) for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Section 5.10    Title to Property; Leases

The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after such date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement. All leases that individually or in the aggregate are Material are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all material respects.

Section 5.11    Licenses, Permits, Etc.

(a)The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights, proprietary software, service marks, trademarks and trade names, or rights thereto, that individually or in the aggregate are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others.

(b)To the best knowledge of the Company, no product or service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries infringes in any material respect any license, permit, franchise, authorization, patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person.

(c)To the best knowledge of the Company, there is no Material violation by any Person of any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 5.12    Compliance with ERISA

(a)    The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not, individually or in the aggregate,

9

reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA (other than liability to the PBGC for timely paid premiums under section 4007 of ERISA) or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to its Plans or any Multiemployer Plan, and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to section 430(k) of the Code or to any such penalty or excise tax provisions under the Code relating to any Plan or section 4068 of ERISA or by the granting of a security interest in connection with the amendment of a Plan, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. (For the avoidance of doubt, the reference in the immediately preceding sentence to any event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists and that could result in a penalty or excise tax under the Code or federal law does not apply to any Multiemployer Plans and/or any penalties or excise taxes relating to potential prohibited transactions in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, which are separately covered in Section 5.12(e) below.)

(b)To the extent applicable, the present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such Plan’s most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities. The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA.

(c)The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)To the extent applicable, the expected postretirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715-60, without regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not Material.

(e)    The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the execution and delivery of the Subsidiary Guaranties of the Subsidiary Guarantors, and the issuance and sale of the Notes hereunder will not involve any transaction that is subject to the prohibitions of section 406(a) of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. The representation by the Company to each Purchaser in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of such Purchaser’s representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources of the

10

funds to be used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser.

Section 5.13    Private Offering by the Company

Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes or any similar Securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy the Notes or any similar Securities from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 50 other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

Section 5.14    Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations

Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

Section 8.5    Purchase of Notes

The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least ten Business Days. If the holders of more than 50% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least five Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

Section 8.6    Make-Whole Amount

“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to

23

the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. All payments of Make-Whole Amount made in respect of US Dollar Notes shall be made in Dollars. All payments of Make-Whole Amount made in respect of Sterling Notes shall be made in Sterling. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes of such Series is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means,

(i)with respect to the Called Principal of any US Dollar Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury

24

constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

(ii)with respect to with respect to the Called Principal of any Sterling Note, the sum of the 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PXUK” (or such other display as may replace Page PXUK) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the then most actively traded on the run UK Gilt securities (the “Reference Stock”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If such yields are not reported as of such time or the calculation on Page PXUK (or such other display as may replace Page PXUK) ceases to be in keeping with the Formulae for the Calculation of Redemption Yields indicated in the United Kingdom Debt Management Office notice entitled “Formulae for Calculating Gilt Prices from Yields”, page 4, Section One: Price/Yield Formulae “Conventional Gilts: Double-dated and Undated Gilts with assumed (or Actual) Redemption on a Quasi-Coupon Date” published on 8 June 1998, as supplemented, amended or replaced from time to time (the “Formulae”), then such implied yield to maturity will be the gross redemption yield calculated on the basis of the arithmetic mean (to three decimal places where 0.0005 shall be rounded down) of the mid-market price for the Reference Stock on a dealing basis by three authorized leading market makers in the gilt-edged market as at or about 11:00 a.m. London time on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date according to the Formulae. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (i) converting quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating linearly between (1) the Reference Stock with the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal and (2) the Reference Stock with the maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 12.1.

25

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

Section 8.7    Change of Control Prepayment

(a)Within 10 Business Days following the date of any Change of Control, the Company shall give written notice of such Change of Control (a “Change of Control Notice”) to each holder of a Note, which shall contain and constitute an offer to prepay (the “Change of Control Offer”) the entire unpaid principal amount of Notes issued by it that are held by such holder, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (without any Make-Whole Amount) on a date specified in such Change of Control Notice, which date shall be a Business Day not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such Change of Control Notice (the “Change of Control Prepayment Date”) (if such date shall not be specified in such Change of Control Notice, the Change of Control Prepayment Date shall be the first Business Day after the 45th Business Day after the date of such Change of Control Notice). The Change of Control Notice shall (i) describe the facts and circumstances of such Change of Control in reasonable detail, (ii) refer to this Section 8.7 and the rights of the holders hereunder, (iii) contain the Change of Control Offer, (iv) state the amount of interest that would be paid on such Change of Control Prepayment Date with respect to such holder’s Notes, and (v) request that such holder notify the Company in writing by a stated date (the “Change of Control Acceptance Notification Date”), which date shall not be less than 20 days after such holder’s receipt of such Change of Control Notice, if such holder wishes its Notes to be so prepaid.

(b)To accept an offer of prepayment set forth in a Change of Control Notice, a holder of a Note shall cause a written notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company on or before the Change of Control Acceptance Notification Date. If a holder does not notify the Company on or before the Change of Control Acceptance Notification Date of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of the prepayment offer contained in the Change of Control Notice, then the holder shall be deemed to have rejected the prepayment offer.

(c)On the Change of Control Prepayment Date, the entire outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by each holder of a Note that has accepted such prepayment offer, together with any interest accrued thereon to the Change of Control Prepayment Date, shall become due and payable.

(d)Nothing in this Section 8.7 shall be construed to limit the rights or remedies of the holders following a Default or Event of Default.

Section 8.8    Disposition of Assets Prepayment

(a)    In the event the Company makes an offer of prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 10.7(g)(ii), the Company shall give written notice thereof (an “Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice”) to each holder of a Note, which notice shall contain

26

and constitute an offer to prepay (the “Asset Disposition Prepayment Offer”) a stated portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes issued by it that are held by such holder in an aggregate amount equal to such holder’s Pro Rata Amount of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition being applied in accordance with Section 10.7(g)(ii), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (without any Make-Whole Amount) on a date specified in such Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice, which date shall be a Business Day not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice (the “Asset Disposition Prepayment Date”) (if such date shall not be specified in such Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice, the Asset Disposition Prepayment Date shall be the first Business Day after the 45th Business Day after the date of such Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice). The Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice shall (i) describe the nature of the relevant Disposition in reasonable detail, (ii) refer to this Section 8.8 and the rights of the holders hereunder, (iii) state the amount of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition and the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness being prepaid and/or offered to be prepaid pursuant to Section 10.7(g)(ii), (iv) contain the Asset Disposition Prepayment Offer, (v) state the amount of interest that would be paid on such Asset Disposition Prepayment Date with respect to such holder’s Notes and (vi) request that such holder notify the Company in writing by a stated date (the “Asset Disposition Acceptance Notification Date”), which date shall be not less than 20 days after such holder’s receipt of such Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice, if such holder wishes its Notes to be so prepaid.

(b)To accept an offer of prepayment set forth in an Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice, a holder of a Note shall cause a written notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company on or before the Asset Disposition Acceptance Notification Date. If a holder does not notify the Company on or before the Asset Disposition Acceptance Notification Date of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of the prepayment offer contained in the Asset Disposition Prepayment Notice, then the holder shall be deemed to have rejected the prepayment offer.

(c)On the Asset Disposition Prepayment Date, the appropriate outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by each holder of Notes that has accepted such prepayment offer (equal to such holder’s Pro Rata Amount of the Net Proceeds of the relevant Disposition being applied pursuant to Section 10.7(g)(ii)), together with any interest accrued thereon to the Asset Disposition Prepayment Date, shall become due and payable.

(d)Nothing in this Section 8.8 shall be construed to limit the rights or remedies of the holders following a Default or Event of Default.

Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) subject to clause (y), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; and (y) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on the

27

Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

Section 9.2    Insurance

The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated.

Section 9.3    Maintenance of Properties

The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

47

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), provided they are informed of and agree to abide by the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the provisions of this Section 20, (ii) its auditors, financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any Security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes, this Agreement or any Subsidiary Guaranty. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20.

In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 20, this Section 20 shall not be

48

amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Company, this Section 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking.

SECTION 21.    SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a “Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

SECTION 22.    MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 22.1    Successors and Assigns

All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

(a)    All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of “Indebtedness”), any election by the Company to measure any financial liability using fair value (as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 - Fair Value Option, International Accounting Standard 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any changes in GAAP after March 30, 2016 that would require lease obligations that would be treated as operating leases as of the date of this Agreement to be classified and accounted for as Capital Lease Obligations or otherwise

49

reflected on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries, such obligations shall continue to be excluded from the definition of Indebtedness.

(b)Each of the holders of the Notes by its acceptance thereof understands and agrees with the Company that if in the reasonable opinion of the Company or the Required Holders a change in GAAP occurs which causes a change in any of the calculations contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, calculations with regard to the covenants contained in Section 10 hereof, then and in such event, if the Company or the Required Holders so request, such holders and the Company shall undertake in good faith to amend any affected provisions of this Agreement so as to have an effect comparable to that as of March 30, 2016 and to accommodate such change in GAAP and to enter into an amendment hereof to reflect the same, such amendment to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Required Holders; provided that, until such provision is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Company and the Required Holders, the Company’s compliance with such provision shall be determined on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before the relevant change became effective. In the event that such a change in GAAP causes the Company to violate any of the covenants contained in Section 10 hereof or otherwise causes a Default or Event of Default to occur at a time when no other Default or Event of Default exists, then and in such event, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Default or Event of Default will be caused by such change in GAAP for a period of 90 days following the event which would otherwise be treated as a Default or Event of Default and the Company shall, notwithstanding anything in Section 11 to the contrary, have 90 days from and after the date of the occurrence of such event within which to enter into an amendment with the Required Holders as herein below contemplated.

The procedure for amending this Agreement pursuant to this Section 22.2(b) shall be as follows:

(i)the Company and the Required Holders may, at any time following any such change in GAAP, and the Company shall, within 15 days of the occurrence of the event which would otherwise be treated as a Default or an Event of Default due to a change in GAAP, prepare and deliver to each holder of the Notes and to their special counsel (in the case of an amendment requested by the Company) and to the Company (in the case of an amendment requested by the Required Holders) a proposed form of amendment;

(ii)the holders of the Notes (in the case of an amendment requested by the Company) or the Company (in the case of an amendment requested by the Required Holders) shall, within 30 days of receipt of the proposed form of amendment, deliver to the Company (in the case of an amendment requested by the Company) or to the holders of the Notes (in the case of an amendment requested by the Required Holders) their collective or its, as the case may be, response to the proposed amendment;

(iii)    in the case of the occurrence of an event which would otherwise be treated as a Default or an Event of Default due to a change in GAAP, the parties

50

shall negotiate in good faith toward the execution of the amendment contemplated by this Section 22.2(b) until the 90th day following the occurrence of such event; in any other case in which the Company or the Required Holders requests an amendment pursuant to this Section 22.2(b), the parties shall negotiate in good faith toward the execution of the amendment contemplated by this Section 22.2(b) until the 90th day following delivery of the proposed form of amendment;

(iv)in the event the parties are unable to come to an agreement on the form and substance of the amendment during any such 90-day period, the Company’s compliance with such provision shall be determined on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before the relevant change became effective, until such provision is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Company and the Required Holders; and

(v)until such provision is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Company and the Required Holders in accordance with this Section 22.2(b), each set of financial statements delivered to holders of Notes pursuant to Section 7.1(a) or (b) shall include detailed reconciliations reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders as to the effect of such change in GAAP on the calculation of the covenants contained in Section 10 hereof.

Section 22.3    Severability

Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 22.4    Construction, etc

Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

Section 22.5    Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

Section 22.6    Governing Law

51

This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b)The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

(c)Nothing in this Section 22.7 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

(d)The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith.

52

extent of the amount of Dollars which such holder could purchase in the foreign exchange markets in London, England, with the amount of such other currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the London Banking Day following receipt of the payment first referred to above. If the amount of Dollars that could be so purchased is less than the amount of Dollars originally due to such holder, the Company agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and save harmless such holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under the Notes or under any judgment or order. As used herein the term “London Banking Day” shall mean any day other than Saturday or Sunday or a day on which commercial banks are required or authorized by law to be closed in London, England.

NOW THEREFORE, in [order to induce / compliance with the Note Agreement], and in consideration of, the execution and delivery of the Note Agreement and the purchase of the Notes by each of the Purchasers, the Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with, and represents and warrants to each of the holders as follows:

GUARANTY.

The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each holder, the due and punctual payment in full of (a) the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or

the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), and any other amounts due under, the Notes when and as the same shall become due and payable (whether at stated maturity or by required or optional prepayment or by acceleration or otherwise) and (b) any other sums which may become due under the terms and provisions of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein (all such obligations described in clauses (a) and (b) above are herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The guaranty in the preceding sentence is an absolute, present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectibility and is in no way conditional or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Company or any other guarantor of the Notes or upon any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever. In the event that the Company shall fail so to pay any of such Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor agrees to pay the same when due to the holders entitled thereto, without demand, presentment, protest or notice of any kind, in lawful money of the United States of America, pursuant to the requirements for payment specified in the Notes and the Note Agreement. Each default in payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall give rise to a separate cause of action hereunder and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises. The Guarantor agrees that the Notes issued in connection with the Note Agreement may (but need not) make reference to this Guaranty Agreement.

The Guarantor agrees to pay and to indemnify and save each holder harmless from and against any damage, loss, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) which such holder may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (x) any breach by the Guarantor or by the Company of any warranty, covenant, term or condition in, or the occurrence of any default under, this Guaranty Agreement, the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, together with all expenses resulting from the compromise or defense of any claims or liabilities arising as a result of any such breach or default, (y) any legal action commenced to challenge the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty Agreement, the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein and (z) enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement.

The Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guarantor’s liability hereunder is joint and several with any other Person(s) who may guarantee the obligations and Indebtedness under and in respect of the Notes and the Note Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions or any other provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the Purchasers (on behalf of themselves and their successors and assigns) and the Guarantor hereby agree that if at any time the Guaranteed Obligations exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount determined as of such time with regard to the Guarantor, then this Guaranty Agreement shall be automatically amended to reduce the Guaranteed Obligations to the Maximum Guaranteed Amount. Such amendment shall not require the written consent of the Guarantor or any holder and shall be deemed to have been automatically consented to by the Guarantor and each holder. The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount without affecting or impairing the obligation of the Guarantor. “Maximum Guaranteed Amount” means as of the date of determination with respect to the Guarantor, the lesser of (a) the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations outstanding on such date and (b) the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s liability under

-2-

this Guaranty Agreement subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor provision) or any comparable provision of applicable state law.¹

OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE.

The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have against the Company or any holder or otherwise, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (whether or not the Guarantor shall have any knowledge or notice thereof), including, without limitation: (a) any amendment to, modification of, supplement to or restatement of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein (it being agreed that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall apply to the Notes, the Note Agreement or any such other instrument as so amended, modified, supplemented or restated) or any assignment or transfer of any thereof or of any interest therein, or any furnishing, acceptance or release of any security for the Notes or the addition, substitution or release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations; (b) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein; (c) any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceeding with respect to the Company or its property; (d) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Guarantor or of the Company into or with any other Person or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of the Guarantor or of the Company to any Person; (e) any failure on the part of the Company for any reason to comply with or perform any of the terms of any other agreement with the Guarantor; (f) any failure on the part of any holder to obtain, maintain, register or otherwise perfect any security; or (g) any other event or circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (whether or not similar to the foregoing), and in any event however material or prejudicial it may be to the Guarantor or to any subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights the Guarantor may otherwise have. The Guarantor covenants that its obligations hereunder will not be discharged except [(x)] by payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations hereunder [or (y) in accordance with Section 9.7(c) of the Note Agreement]².

WAIVER.

The Guarantor unconditionally waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) notice of acceptance hereof, of any action taken or omitted in reliance hereon and of any default by the Company in the payment of any amounts due under the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, and of any of the matters referred to in Section 2 hereof, (b) all notices which may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve any of the rights of

any holder against the Guarantor, including, without limitation, presentment to or demand for payment from the Company or the Guarantor with respect to any Note, notice to the Company or to the Guarantor of default or protest for nonpayment or dishonor and the filing of claims with a court in the event of the bankruptcy of the Company, (c) any right to require any holder to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy including, without limitation, any right, power or remedy conferred in the Note Agreement or the Notes, (d) any requirement for diligence on the part of any holder and (e) any other act or omission or thing or delay in doing any other act or thing which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor or in any manner lessen the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder.

OBLIGATIONS UNIMPAIRED.

The Guarantor authorizes the holders, without notice or demand to the Guarantor and without affecting its obligations hereunder, from time to time: (a) to renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, all or any part of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein; (b) to change any of the representations, covenants, events of default or any other terms or conditions of or pertaining to the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, including, without limitation, decreases or increases in amounts of principal, rates of interest, the Make-Whole Amount or any other obligation; (c) to take and hold security for the payment of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, for the performance of this Guaranty Agreement or otherwise for the Indebtedness guaranteed hereby and to exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate and release any such security; (d) to apply any such security and to direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the holders in their sole discretion may determine; (e) to obtain additional or substitute endorsers or guarantors or release any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations; (f) to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company or any other Person; and (g) to apply any sums, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations owed hereunder. The holders shall have no obligation to proceed against any additional or substitute endorsers or guarantors or to pursue or exhaust any security provided by the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person or to pursue any other remedy available to the holders.

If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of any Notes shall exist and such acceleration shall at such time be prevented or the right of any holder to receive any payment on account of the Guaranteed Obligations shall at such time be delayed or otherwise affected by reason of the pendency against the Company, the Guarantor or any other guarantors of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, the Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of this Guaranty Agreement and its obligations hereunder, the maturity of such principal amount shall be deemed to have been accelerated with the same effect as if the holder thereof had accelerated the same in accordance with the terms of the Note Agreement, and the Guarantor shall forthwith pay such accelerated Guaranteed Obligations.

SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION.

-4-

The Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have acquired by way of subrogation under this Guaranty Agreement, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, or accept any payment on account of such subrogation rights, or any rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity or any rights or recourse to any security for the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash.

The Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all Indebtedness and other obligations of the Company or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including, without limitation, all rights and claims described in clause (a) of this Section 5, to the payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations. If the Required Holders so request, any such Indebtedness or other obligations shall be enforced and performance received by the Guarantor as trustee for the holders and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the holders promptly, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by the Required Holders, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement.

If any amount or other payment is made to or accepted by the Guarantor in violation of any of the preceding clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the holders and shall be paid over to the holders promptly, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by the Required Holders, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement.

The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Note Agreement and that its agreements set forth in this Guaranty Agreement (including this Section 5) are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

REINSTATEMENT OF GUARANTY.

This Guaranty Agreement shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if and to the extent at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the sums due to any holder on account of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by a holder upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any other guarantors, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to the Company or any other guarantors or any part of its or their property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

[TAX INDEMNIFICATION.³ 

All payments whatsoever under this Guaranty Agreement will be made by the Guarantor free and clear of, and without liability for withholding or deduction for or on account of, any present or future tax (whether income, documentary, sales, stamp, registration, issue, capital, property, excise or otherwise), duty, assessment, levy, impost, fee, compulsory loan, charge or withholding (a “Tax”) of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction other than the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such jurisdiction) (a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Tax is compelled by law.

If any deduction or withholding for any Tax of a Taxing Jurisdiction shall at any time be required in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement, the Guarantor will pay to the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction the full amount required to be withheld, deducted or otherwise paid before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon and pay to each holder such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to such holder pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty Agreement after such deduction, withholding or payment (including, without limitation, any required deduction or withholding of Tax on or with respect to such additional amount), shall be not less than the amounts then due and payable to such holder under the terms of this Guaranty Agreement before the assessment of such Tax, provided that no payment of any additional amounts shall be required to be made for or on account of:

any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such holder (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member of, shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such holder, if such holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation or any Person other than the holder to whom the Notes or any amount payable thereon is attributable for the purposes of such Tax) and the Taxing Jurisdiction, other than the mere holding of the relevant Note or the receipt of payments thereunder or in respect thereof, including, without limitation, such holder (or such other Person described in the above parenthetical) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof, or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having or having had an establishment, office, fixed base or branch therein, provided that this exclusion shall not apply with respect to a Tax that would not have been imposed but for the Guarantor, after the date of this Guaranty Agreement, opening an office in, moving an office to, reincorporating in, or changing the Taxing Jurisdiction from or through which payments on account of this Guaranty Agreement are made to, the Taxing Jurisdiction imposing the relevant Tax;

any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the delay or failure by such holder (following a written request by the Guarantor) in the filing with the Guarantor or the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of Forms (as defined below) that are required to be filed by such holder to

³ To be included if the Guarantor is domiciled in a non-U.S. jurisdiction.

-7-

avoid or reduce such Taxes (including for such purpose any refilings or renewals of filings that may from time to time be required by the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), provided that the filing of such Forms would not (in such holder’s reasonable judgment) impose any unreasonable burden (in time, resources or otherwise) on such holder or result in any confidential or proprietary income tax return information being revealed, either directly or indirectly, to any Person and such delay or failure could have been lawfully avoided by such holder, and providedfurther that such holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (b) upon the good faith completion and submission of such Forms (including refilings or renewals of filings) as may be specified in a written request of the Guarantor no later than 60 days after receipt by such holder of such written request (accompanied by copies of such Forms and related instructions, if any, all in the English language or with an English translation thereof);

any Tax that would not have been so imposed but for the presentation of a Note (where presentation is required) for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or after the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later; or

any combination of clauses (a), (b) and (c) above;

and providedfurther that in no event shall the Guarantor be obligated to pay such additional amounts (i) to any holder not resident in the United States of America or any other jurisdiction in which a holder is resident for tax purposes on the date of this Guaranty Agreement in excess of the amounts that the Guarantor would be obligated to pay if such holder had been a resident of the United States of America or such other jurisdiction, as applicable, for purposes of, and eligible for the benefits of, any double taxation treaty from time to time in effect between the United States of America or such other jurisdiction and the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or (ii) to any holder of a Note registered in the name of a nominee if under the law of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (or the current regulatory interpretation of such law) securities held in the name of a nominee do not qualify for an exemption from the relevant Tax and the Guarantor shall have given timely notice of such law or interpretation to such holder.

By acceptance of any Note, the holder of such Note agrees, subject to the limitations of clause (b) above, that it will from time to time with reasonable promptness (x) duly complete and deliver to or as reasonably directed by the Guarantor all such forms, certificates, documents and returns provided to such holder by the Guarantor (collectively, together with instructions for completing the same, “Forms”) required to be filed by or on behalf of such holder in order to avoid or reduce any Tax pursuant to the provisions of an applicable statute, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or of a tax treaty between the United States and such Taxing Jurisdiction and (y) provide the Guarantor with such information with respect to such holder as the Guarantor may reasonably request in order to complete any such Forms, provided that nothing in this Section 9 shall require any holder to provide information with respect to any such Form or otherwise if in the opinion of such holder such Form or disclosure of information would involve the disclosure of tax return or other information that is confidential or proprietary to such holder, and provided, further, that each such holder shall be deemed to have complied with its obligation under this paragraph with respect to any Form if such Form shall have been duly completed and delivered by such holder to the Guarantor or mailed to the appropriate taxing authority (which in the case of any Form which requires that it

-8-

be submitted to the United States Internal Revenue Service as a condition to its effectiveness in the Taxing Jurisdiction shall be deemed to occur when such Form is submitted to the United States Internal Revenue Service in accordance with instructions contained in such Form), whichever is applicable, within 60 days following a written request of the Guarantor (which request shall be accompanied by copies of such Form and English translations of any such Form not in the English language) and, in the case of a transfer of any Note, at least 90 days prior to the relevant interest payment date.

On or before the date of this Guaranty Agreement the Guarantor shall have furnished each Purchaser with copies of the appropriate Form (and English translation if required as aforesaid) currently required to be filed in [__________] pursuant to clause (b) of the second paragraph of this Section 9, if any, and in connection with the transfer of any Note the Guarantor will furnish the transferee of such Note with copies of any Form and English translation then required.

If any payment is made by the Guarantor to or for the account of the holder of any Note after deduction for or on account of any Taxes, and increased payments are made by the Guarantor pursuant to this Section 9, then, if such holder at its sole discretion determines that it has received or been granted a refund of such Taxes, such holder shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund, reimburse to the Guarantor such amount as such holder shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be attributable to the relevant Taxes or deduction or withholding. Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of the holder of any Note to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit and, in particular, no holder of any Note shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar tax liability in respect of such Tax in priority to any other claims, reliefs, credits or deductions available to it or (other than as set forth in clause (b) above) oblige any holder of any Note to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof.

The Guarantor will furnish the holders of Notes, promptly and in any event within 60 days after the date of any payment by the Guarantor of any Tax in respect of any amounts paid under this Guaranty Agreement, the original tax receipt issued by the relevant taxation or other authorities involved for all amounts paid as aforesaid (or if such original tax receipt is not available or must legally be kept in the possession of the Guarantor, a duly certified copy of the original tax receipt or any other reasonably satisfactory evidence of payment), together with such other documentary evidence with respect to such payments as may be reasonably requested from time to time by any holder of a Note.

If the Guarantor is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of the taxation or other authority of any relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, to make any deduction or withholding of any Tax in respect of which the Guarantor would be required to pay any additional amount under this Section 9, but for any reason does not make such deduction or withholding with the result that a liability in respect of such Tax is assessed directly against the holder of any Note, and such holder pays such liability, then the Guarantor will promptly reimburse such holder for such payment (including any related interest or penalties to the extent such interest or penalties arise by virtue of a default or delay by the Guarantor) upon demand by

-9-

such holder accompanied by an official receipt (or a duly certified copy thereof) issued by the taxation or other authority of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction.

If the Guarantor makes payment to or for the account of any holder of a Note and such holder is entitled to a refund of the Tax to which such payment is attributable upon the making of a filing (other than a Form described above), then such holder shall, as soon as practicable after receiving written request from the Guarantor (which shall specify in reasonable detail and supply the refund forms to be filed) use reasonable efforts to complete and deliver such refund forms to or as directed by the Guarantor, subject, however, to the same limitations with respect to Forms as are set forth above.

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 9 shall survive the payment or transfer of any Note and the provisions of this Section 9 shall also apply to successive transferees of the Notes.]

TERM OF GUARANTY AGREEMENT.

This Guaranty Agreement and all guarantees, covenants and agreements of the Guarantor contained herein shall continue in full force and effect and[, subject to Section 9.7(c) of the Note Agreement,]⁴shall not be discharged until such time as all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations hereunder shall be paid in full in cash and shall be subject to reinstatement pursuant to Section 6.

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty Agreement and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any Purchaser or any other holder. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Guaranty Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between each holder and the Guarantor and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

Solicitation. The Guarantor will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof.

agreement not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Guarantor and the holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder. As used herein, the term “this Guaranty Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Guaranty Agreement as it may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time.

Notes Held by Company, etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Guaranty Agreement, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Guarantor, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

NOTICES[; ENGLISH LANGUAGE].

All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:

if to any holder, to such holder at the addresses specified for such communications set forth in Schedule B to the Note Agreement, or such other address as such holder shall have specified to the Guarantor in writing.

[Each document, instrument, financial statement, report, notice or other communication delivered in connection with this Guaranty Agreement shall be in English or accompanied by an English translation thereof.

This Guaranty Agreement has been prepared and signed in English and the Guarantor agrees that the English version hereof (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) shall be the only version valid for the purpose of the interpretation and construction hereof and thereof notwithstanding the preparation of any translation into another language hereof or thereof, whether official or otherwise or whether prepared in relation to any proceedings which may be brought in [____] or any other jurisdiction in respect hereof or thereof.]⁶ 

MISCELLANEOUS.

Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Guaranty Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns whether so expressed or not.

Severability. Any provision of this Guaranty Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law), not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Whether any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

The section and subsection headings in this Guaranty Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall neither be deemed to be a part of this Guaranty Agreement nor modify, define, expand or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof. All references herein to numbered sections, unless otherwise indicated, are to sections of this Guaranty Agreement. Words and definitions in the singular shall be read and construed as though in the plural and vice versa, and words in the masculine, neuter or feminine gender shall be read and construed as though in either of the other genders where the context so requires.

Further Assurances. The Guarantor agrees to execute and deliver all such instruments and take all such action as the Required Holders may from time to time reasonably request in order to effectuate fully the purposes of this Guaranty Agreement.

Governing Law. This Guaranty Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York, excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

The Guarantor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Guarantor irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

The Guarantor consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 14.6(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, [to it at its address specified in Section 13 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to Section 13 / or delivering a copy thereof in the manner for delivery of notices specified in Section 13, to [_____________] (the “Process

-13-

Agent”), as its agent for the purpose of accepting service of any process in the United States].⁷The Guarantor agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

Nothing in this Section 14.6 shall affect the right of any holder to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders may have to bring proceedings against the Guarantor in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

[The Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Process Agent to receive for it, and on its behalf, service of process in the United States.]⁸

Obligation to Make Payment in United States Dollars.

If the amount of Dollars that could be so purchased is less than the amount of Dollars originally due to such holder, the Guarantor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and save harmless such holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Guaranty Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder under any judgment or order.

If the amount of Sterling that could be so purchased is less than the amount of Sterling originally due to such holder, the Guarantor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and save harmless such holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Guaranty Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under any judgment or order.

This Guaranty Agreement may be reproduced by any holder by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and such holder may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Guarantor agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such holder in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 14.8 shall not prohibit the Guarantor or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

Significant Accounting Policies

For a further discussion of the Company's accounting policies, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, necessary to fairly present the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The December 31, 2018 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are comprised of the consolidation of Evercore LP and Evercore LP's wholly-owned and majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Evercore Group L.L.C. ("EGL"), a registered broker-dealer in the U.S. The Company's policy is to consolidate all subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest, as well as any variable interest entities ("VIEs") where the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, when it has the power to make the decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb significant losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reviews factors, including the rights of the equity holders and obligations of equity holders to absorb losses or receive expected residual returns, to determine if the investment is a VIE. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly by the Company. The consolidation analysis is generally performed qualitatively. This analysis, which requires judgment, is performed at each reporting date.

Evercore LP is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Specifically, the Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore LP and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity while the limited partners have no kick-out or substantive participating rights. The assets and liabilities of Evercore LP represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the Company with the exception of U.S. corporate taxes and related items, which are presented on the Company's (Parent Company Only) Condensed Statements of Financial Position in Note 24 to

the Company's consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Evercore ISI International Limited ("ISI U.K."), Evercore Partners International LLP ("Evercore U.K.") and Evercore (Japan) Ltd. ("Evercore Japan") are also VIEs, and the Company is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. Specifically for ISI U.K. and Evercore Japan (as of January 1, 2019 for Evercore Japan), the Company provides financial support through transfer pricing agreements with these entities, which exposes the Company to losses that are potentially significant to these entities, and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of these entities. The Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore U.K. and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of this entity. The Company included in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition ISI U.K., Evercore U.K. and Evercore Japan assets of $161,095 and liabilities of $101,937 at June 30, 2019 and ISI U.K. and Evercore U.K. assets of $190,223 and liabilities of $122,460 at December 31, 2018.

All intercompany balances and transactions with the Company's subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company adopted ASC 842, "Leases" ("ASC 842") on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method of transition. The Company did not have a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients, which does not require reassessment of whether contracts are or contain leases, of lease classification and of initial direct costs. The Company also elected the transition option in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements," ("ASU 2018-11") to not apply the new lease standard in comparative periods presented in financial statements in the year of adoption. Following the adoption of ASC 842, the Company includes all leases, including short-term leases, on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts for leases for the use of office equipment. Operating leases for office space generally contain payments for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses in addition to rent payments; the Company does not include these as part of the lease component.

Following the adoption of ASC 842, the present value of the Company's lease commitments are reflected as long-term assets, within Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets, with corresponding liabilities classified as current and non-current, within Operating Lease Liabilities on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company's right to use the underlying assets for their lease terms and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs. The lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees.

Operating lease expense is included in Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (which did not change from the legacy U.S. GAAP presentation). See Notes 3 and 10 for further information.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2016-02 – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 supersedes ASC 840, "Leases" ("ASC 840") and includes requirements for the recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which provides an additional transition method to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to Retained Earnings for prior periods as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The amendments in these updates are effective using a modified retrospective approach as of the date of adoption, during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption resulted in the present value of the Company's lease commitments being reflected on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as a long-term asset with a corresponding liability, classified as current and non-current. Right-of-use assets are subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs. The Company's lease commitments primarily relate to office space, as discussed in Note 10. The impact on the Company's earnings is not materially different from the prior expense related to leases as required under legacy U.S. GAAP, which is primarily reflected in Occupancy and Equipment Rental expense on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and there was no impact on the Company's cash flows. The Company recorded lease liabilities of $217,913 on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated

Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019, along with associated right-of-use assets of $178,241, which reflect the lease liabilities recognized, subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs.

ASU 2016-13 – In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 provides amendments to ASC 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses," which amend the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments and adds an impairment model (the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Entities will recognize an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses as of the end of each reporting period. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted after December 15, 2018. The Company currently uses the specific identification method for establishing credit provisions and write-offs of its trade accounts receivable. The Company anticipates adopting ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update but does not anticipate a material difference between the current method and the CECL model.

ASU 2018-02 – In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, "Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2018-02"). ASU 2018-02 provides amendments to ASC 220, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income," which allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments in this update are effective either in the period of adoption or retrospectively, to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized, during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 on January 1, 2019 and did not elect to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. As such, there was no impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-07 – In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, "Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2018-07"). ASU 2018-07 provides amendments to ASC 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" to align the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees, particularly surrounding the measurement date and impact of performance conditions. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption for liability-classified awards that have not been settled and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established by the date of adoption, and prospectively for all new awards granted after the date of adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 on January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-13 – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement" ("ASU 2018-13"). ASU 2018-13 provides amendments to ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), which remove the requirements surrounding the disclosure and policy of transfers between fair value levels and the valuation processes for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, ASU 2018-13 adds disclosure requirements for changes in unrealized gains and losses for Level 3 measurements and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses and unobservable inputs for Level 3 measurements should be applied prospectively, and all other amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

ASU 2018-17 – In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17, "Consolidation (Topic 810) - Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities" ("ASU 2018-17"). ASU 2018-17 provides amendments to ASC 810, "Consolidation" ("ASC 810"), which states that any indirect interest held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be retrospectively applied with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, or disclosures thereto.

	June 30, 2019				December 31, 2018

Total	$	1,933	$	1,968	$	1,622	$	1,632

Since the Company has the ability and intent to hold available-for-sale securities until a recovery of fair value is equal to an amount approximating its amortized cost, which may be at maturity, and has not incurred credit losses on its securities, it does not consider such unrealized loss positions to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2019.

Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value, Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell and Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value, Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell and Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The Company, through Evercore Casa de Bolsa, S.A. de C.V. ("ECB"), enters into repurchase agreements with clients seeking overnight money market returns whereby ECB transfers to the clients Mexican government securities in exchange for cash and concurrently agrees to repurchase the securities at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus a stipulated premium or interest factor. ECB deploys the cash received from, and acquires the securities deliverable to, clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market, which the Company reflects as Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, or by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties. The Company accounts for these repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements as collateralized financing transactions, which are carried at their contract amounts, which approximate fair value given that the contracts mature the following business day. The Company records a liability on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in relation to repurchase transactions executed with clients as Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase. The Company records as assets on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, Financial Instruments Owned and Pledged as Collateral at Fair Value (where the Company has acquired the

securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase arrangements by purchasing securities in the open market) and Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell (where the Company has acquired the securities deliverable to clients under these repurchase agreements by entering into reverse repurchase agreements with unrelated third parties). These Mexican government securities had an estimated average time to maturity of approximately 1.5 years, as of June 30, 2019, and are pledged as collateral against repurchase agreements. Generally, collateral is posted equal to the contract value at inception and is subject to market changes. These repurchase agreements are primarily with institutional customer accounts managed by ECB and permit the counterparty to pledge the securities.

ECB has procedures in place to monitor the daily risk limits for positions taken, as well as the credit risk based on the collateral pledged under these agreements against their contract value from inception to maturity date. The daily risk measure is Value at Risk ("VaR"), which is a statistical measure, at a 98% confidence level, of the potential daily losses from adverse market movements in an ordinary market environment based on a historical simulation using the prior year's historical data. ECB's Risk Management Committee (the "Committee") has established a policy to maintain VaR at levels below 0.1% of the value of the portfolio. If at any point in time the threshold is exceeded, ECB personnel are alerted by an automated interface with ECB's trading systems and begin to make adjustments in the portfolio in order to mitigate the risk and bring the portfolio in compliance. Concurrently, ECB personnel must notify the Committee of the variance and the actions taken to reduce the exposure to loss.

In addition to monitoring VaR, ECB periodically performs discrete stress tests ("Stress Tests") to assure that the level of potential losses that would arise from extreme market movements that may not be anticipated by VaR measures are within acceptable levels.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, a summary of the Company's assets, liabilities and collateral received or pledged related to these transactions was as follows:

	June 30, 2019						December 31, 2018
	Asset (Liability) Balance			Market Value of Collateral Received or (Pledged)			Asset (Liability) Balance			Market Value of Collateral Received or (Pledged)

Investments in Private Equity

Private Equity Funds

The Company's investments related to private equity partnerships and associated entities include investments in Evercore Capital Partners II, L.P. ("ECP II"), Glisco Partners II, L.P. ("Glisco II"), Glisco Partners III, L.P. ("Glisco III"), Glisco Capital Partners IV ("Glisco IV"), Trilantic Capital Partners Associates IV, L.P. ("Trilantic IV"), Trilantic Capital Partners V, L.P. ("Trilantic V") and Trilantic Capital Partners VI (North America), L.P. ("Trilantic VI"). Portfolio holdings of the private equity funds are carried at fair value. Accordingly, the Company reflects its pro rata share of unrealized gains and losses occurring from changes in fair value. Additionally, the Company reflects its pro rata share of realized gains, losses and carried interest associated with any investment realizations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made an investment of $2,642 in Trilantic VI.

On December 31, 2014, ECP II was terminated. The Company's investment at June 30, 2019 of $765 is comprised of its remaining interest in the general partner, comprised in cash.

A summary of the Company's investments in the private equity funds as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was as follows:

	June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
ECP II	$	765	$	795
Glisco II, Glisco III and Glisco IV	3,919		3,880
Trilantic IV, Trilantic V and Trilantic VI	10,412		5,125
Total Private Equity Funds	$	15,096	$	9,800

Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on private equity fund investments were ($123) and ($127) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and ($204) and $142 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In the event the funds perform poorly, the Company may be obligated to repay certain carried interest previously distributed. As of June 30, 2019, there was no previously distributed carried interest received from the funds that was subject to repayment.

General Partners of Private Equity Funds which are VIEs

The Company has concluded that Evercore Partners II, L.L.C. ("EP II L.L.C."), the former general partner of ECP II, is a VIE pursuant to ASC 810. The Company owned 8%-9% of the carried interest earned by the general partner of ECP II. The Company's assessment of the design of EP II L.L.C. resulted in the determination that the Company is not acting as an agent for other members of the general partner and is a passive holder of interests in the fund, evidenced by the fact that the Company is a non-voting, non-managing member of the general partner and, therefore, has no authority in directing the management operations of the general partner. Furthermore, the Company does not have the obligation to absorb significant losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially have a significant impact to EP II L.L.C. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of EP II L.L.C. and has not consolidated EP II L.L.C. in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Following the Glisco transaction, the Company concluded that Glisco Capital Partners II, Glisco Capital Partners III and Glisco Manager Holdings LP are VIEs and that the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The Company's assessment of the primary beneficiary of these entities included assessing which parties have the power to significantly impact the economic performance of these entities and the obligation to absorb losses, which could be potentially significant to the entities, or the right to receive benefits from the entities that could be potentially significant. Neither the Company nor its related parties will have the ability to make decisions that significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. Further, as a limited partner in these entities, the Company does not possess substantive participating rights. The Company had assets of $5,108 and $5,445 included in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to these unconsolidated VIEs, representing the carrying value of the Company's investments in the entities. The Company's exposure to the obligations of these VIEs is generally limited to its investments in these entities. The Company's maximum exposure to loss as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $7,672 and $8,048, respectively, which represents the carrying value of the Company's investments in these VIEs, as well as any unfunded commitments to the current and future funds.

Investment in Trilantic Capital Partners

In 2010, the Company made a limited partnership investment in Trilantic in exchange for 500 Class A limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class A LP Units") having a fair value of $16,090. This investment gave the Company the right to invest in Trilantic's current and future private equity funds, beginning with Trilantic Fund IV. The Company accounts for this investment at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The Company allocates the cost of this investment to its investments in current and future Trilantic funds as the Company satisfies the capital calls of these funds. The Company bases this allocation on its expectation of Trilantic's future fundraising ability and performance. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, $147 and $2,642 of this investment was allocated to Trilantic Fund V and VI, respectively. From 2010 to 2018, $4,980 and $1,178 of this investment was allocated to Trilantic Fund V and IV, respectively. This investment had a balance of $7,143 and $9,932 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company has a $5,000 commitment to invest in Trilantic Fund V, of which $436 was unfunded at June 30, 2019. The Company also has a $12,000 commitment to invest in Trilantic Fund VI, of which $9,358 was unfunded at June 30, 2019. The Company funded $2,642 of this commitment during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Other Investments

In 2015, the Company received an equity security in a private company in exchange for advisory services. This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes and had a balance of $1,079 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

In May 2019, the Company received preferred equity securities in a private company in exchange for advisory services. This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes and had a balance of $934 as of June 30, 2019.

Following the Glisco transaction in 2016, the Company recorded an investment in Glisco Manager Holdings LP representing the fair value of the deferred consideration resulting from this transaction. This investment is accounted for at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The Company amortizes the balance of its investment as distributions are received related to the deferred consideration. This investment had a balance of $1,253 and $1,609 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

Leases

Operating Leases – The Company leases office space under non-cancelable lease agreements, which expire on various dates through 2034. The Company reflects lease expense over the lease terms on a straight-line basis. Occupancy lease agreements, in addition to base rentals, generally are subject to escalation provisions based on certain costs incurred by the landlord. The Company does not have any leases with variable lease payments. Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations includes occupancy rental expense relating to operating leases of $12,221 and $23,256 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $10,454 and $20,571 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

In conjunction with the lease of office space, the Company has entered into letters of credit in the amounts of approximately $5,518 and $5,502, which are secured by cash that is included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company has entered into various operating leases for the use of office equipment (primarily computers, printers, copiers and other IT related equipment). Rental expense for office equipment totaled $1,004 and $1,927 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $799 and $1,259 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Rental expense for office equipment is included in Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company uses its secured incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The determination of an appropriate incremental borrowing rate requires significant assumptions and judgment. The Company's incremental borrowing rate was calculated based on the Company's recent debt issuances and current market conditions. The Company scales the rates appropriately depending on the life of the leases.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily-available active quoted prices or for which

fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level I – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The type of investments included in Level I include listed equities, listed derivatives and treasury bills. As required by ASC 820, the Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.

Level II – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. The estimated fair values of the Corporate Bonds, Municipal Bonds, Other Debt Securities and Securities Investments held at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are based on prices provided by external pricing services.

Level III – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

The following table presents the categorization of investments and certain other financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

	June 30, 2019
	Level I		Level II		Level III		Total
Corporate Bonds, Municipal Bonds and Other Debt Securities(1)	$	106,378	$	68,652	$	—	$	175,030

(1) Includes $25,313 and $24,415 of treasury bills, municipal bonds and commercial paper classified within Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

(2) Includes $6,121 and $6,326 of treasury bills and notes and municipal bonds classified within Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

The Company had no transfers between fair value levels during the six months ended June 30, 2019 or the year ended December 31, 2018.

The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company's financial instrument assets and liabilities, which are not measured at fair value on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, are listed in the tables below.

(a) The Company has outstanding Class J limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class J LP Units"), which convert into Class E limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class E LP Units") and ultimately become exchangeable into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Class J LP Units were dilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been included in the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders under the if-converted method. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all Class J LP Units are converted into Class A Shares.

(b) The Company also has outstanding Class A and E LP Units in Evercore LP, which give the holders the right to receive Class A Shares upon exchange on a one-for-one basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Class A and E LP Units were antidilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders. The units that would have been included in the denominator of the computation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common

shareholders if the effect would have been dilutive were 5,312 and 5,201 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and 5,132 and 5,179 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The adjustment to the numerator, diluted net income attributable to Class A common shareholders, if the effect would have been dilutive, would have been $11,021 and $19,191 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $9,114 and $20,459 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all vested Class A LP Units and all Class E LP Units are converted into Class A Shares, that all earnings attributable to those shares are attributed to Evercore Inc. and that the Company is subject to the statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional corporate tax structure in the U.S. at prevailing corporate tax rates. The Company does not anticipate that the Class A and E LP Units will result in a dilutive computation in future periods.

(c) The Company has outstanding Class I-P units of Evercore LP ("Class I-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class I limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class I LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, and outstanding Class K-P units of Evercore LP ("Class K-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class K limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class K LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, as they are subject to certain performance thresholds being achieved. For the purposes of calculating diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders, the Company's Class I-P and Class K-P Units are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding as of the beginning of the period in which all necessary performance conditions have been satisfied. If all necessary performance conditions have not been satisfied by the end of the period, the number of shares that are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding is based on the number of shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the performance period. The Units that were assumed to be converted to an equal number of Class A Shares for purposes of computing diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders were 400 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

The shares of Class B common stock have no right to receive dividends or a distribution on liquidation or winding up of the Company. The shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings of the Company and no earnings are allocable to such class. Accordingly, basic and diluted net income per share of Class B common stock have not been presented.

Share-Based and Other Deferred Compensation

Share-Based and Other Deferred Compensation

LP Units

Equities business - In conjunction with the acquisition of the operating businesses of International Strategy & Investment ("ISI") in 2014, the Company issued Evercore LP units and interests which have been treated as compensation.

In July 2017, the Company exchanged all of the previously outstanding 4,148 Class H limited partnership interests of Evercore LP ("Class H LP Interests") for 1,012 vested (963 of which were subject to certain liquidated damages and continued employment provisions) and 938 unvested Class J LP Units. These units convert into an equal amount of Class E LP Units, and become exchangeable into Class A Shares of the Company, ratably on February 15, 2018, 2019 and 2020. These Class J LP Units have the same vesting and delivery schedule, acceleration and forfeiture triggers, and distribution rights as the Class H LP Interests. In connection with this exchange, one share of Class B common stock has been issued to each holder of Class J LP Units, which entitles each holder to one vote on all matters submitted generally to holders of Class A and Class B common stock for each Class E LP Unit and Class J LP Unit held. As the number of Class J LP Units exchanged was within the number of Class H LP Interests that the Company determined were probable of being exchanged on the date of modification, the Company is expensing the previously unrecognized grant date fair value of the Class H LP Interests ratably over the remaining vesting period of the Class J LP Units. Compensation expense related to the Class J LP Units was $3,700 and $7,749 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $3,700 and $7,572 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

On February 15, 2019, 632 Class J LP Units vested and were converted to an equal amount of Class E LP Units.

Other Performance-based Awards - In November 2016, the Company issued 400 Class I-P Units in conjunction with the appointment of the Executive Chairman. These Class I-P Units convert into a specified number of Class I LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent on the achievement of certain market and service conditions, subject to vesting upon specified termination events (including retirement, upon satisfying certain eligibility criteria, on or following January 15, 2022, subject to a one year prior written notice requirement) or a change in control. These Class I-P Units are segregated into two groups of 200 units each, with share price threshold vesting conditions which are required to exceed a certain level for 20 consecutive trading days (which were met as of March 31, 2017). The Company determined the fair value of the award to be $24,412 and is expensing the award ratably over the implied service period, which ends on March 1, 2022. As the award contains market-based conditions, the entire expense will be recognized if the award does not vest for any reason other than the service

conditions. Compensation expense related to this award was $1,152 and $2,291 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In November 2017, the Company issued 64 Class K-P Units to an employee of the Company. These Class K-P Units convert into a specified number of Class K LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through December 31, 2021. An additional 16 Class K-P Units may be issued contingent upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through December 31, 2021. The Company determined the fair value of the award probable to vest as of June 30, 2019 to be $5,000 and records expense for these units over the service period.

In June 2019, the Company issued 220 Class K-P Units to an employee of the Company. These Class K-P Units convert into a number of Class K LP Units, which are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis to Class A Shares, contingent and based upon the achievement of certain defined benchmark results and continued service through February 4, 2023 for the first tranche, which consists of 120 Class K-P Units convertible into a number of Class K LP Units, and February 4, 2028 for the second tranche, which consists of 100 Class K-P Units convertible into a number of Class K LP Units. The Company determined the fair value of the award probable to vest as of June 30, 2019 to be $5,771 and records expense for these units over the service period.

Compensation expense related to the Class K-P Units was $338 and $634 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $299 and $595 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Stock Incentive Plan

During 2016, the Company's stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan"). The 2016 Plan, among other things, authorizes an additional 10,000 shares of the Company's Class A Shares. The 2016 Plan permits the Company to grant to key employees, directors and consultants incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs and other awards based on the Company's Class A Shares. The Company intends to use newly-issued Class A Shares to satisfy any awards under the 2016 Plan and its predecessor plan. Class A Shares underlying any award granted under the 2016 Plan that expire, terminate or are canceled or satisfied for any reason without being settled in stock again become available for awards under the plans. The total shares available to be granted in the future under the 2016 Plan was 2,872 and 5,399 as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The Company also grants, at its discretion, dividend equivalents, in the form of unvested RSU awards, or deferred cash dividends, concurrently with the payment of dividends to the holders of Class A Shares, on all unvested RSU grants awarded in conjunction with annual bonuses, as well as new hire awards. The dividend equivalents have the same vesting and delivery terms as the underlying RSU award.

The Company estimates forfeitures in the aggregate compensation cost to be amortized over the requisite service period of its awards. The Company periodically monitors its estimated forfeiture rate and adjusts its assumptions to the actual occurrence of forfeited awards. A change in estimated forfeitures is recognized through a cumulative adjustment in the period of the change. 

Equity Grants

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, pursuant to the 2016 Plan, the Company granted employees 2,526 RSUs that are Service-based Awards. Service-based Awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2019 had grant date fair values of $72.11 to $96.22 per share, with an average value of $91.34 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 2,346 Service-based Awards vested and 49 Service-based Awards were forfeited. Compensation expense related to Service-based Awards, including RSUs granted to the Executive Chairman in November 2016, was $56,526 and $112,144 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $46,375 and $89,106 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Deferred Cash

The Company's deferred cash compensation program provides participants the ability to elect to receive a portion of their deferred compensation in cash, which is indexed to notional investment portfolios selected by the participant and vests ratably over four years and requires payment upon vesting. The Company granted $93,366 of deferred cash awards pursuant to the deferred cash compensation program during the first quarter of 2019.

In November 2016, the Company granted a restricted cash award in conjunction with the appointment of the Executive Chairman with a target payment amount of $35,000, of which $11,000 vested on March 1, 2019 and $6,000 is scheduled to vest on each of the first four anniversaries of March 1, 2019, provided that the Executive Chairman continues to remain employed

through each such vesting date, subject to vesting upon specified termination events (including retirement, upon satisfying certain eligibility criteria, on or following May 1, 2019, subject to a six month prior written notice requirement) or a change in control. The Company has the discretion to increase (by an amount up to $35,000) or decrease (by an amount up to $8,750) the total amount payable under this award.

In 2017, the Company granted deferred cash awards of $29,500 to certain employees. These awards vest in five equal installments over the period ending June 30, 2022, subject to continued employment. The Company records expense for these awards ratably over the vesting period.

Compensation expense related to deferred cash awards was $25,375 and $52,768 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $15,750 and $28,341 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Long-term Incentive Plan

The Company's Long-term Incentive Plan provides for incentive compensation awards to Advisory Senior Managing Directors, excluding executive officers of the Company, who exceed defined benchmark results over four-year performance periods beginning January 1, 2013 (the "2013 Long-term Incentive Plan") and January 1, 2017 (the "2017 Long-term Incentive Plan"). The 2013 Long-term Incentive Plan was paid in cash in installments in 2017, 2018 and the first quarter of 2019. The 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan, which aggregates $82,021 of long-term liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of June 30, 2019, is due to be paid, in cash or Class A Shares, at the Company's discretion, in three equal installments in the first quarter of 2021, 2022 and 2023, subject to employment at the time of payment. These awards are subject to retirement eligibility requirements. The Company periodically assesses the probability of the benchmarks being achieved and expenses the probable payout over the requisite service period of the award. The compensation expense related to these awards was $8,216 and $16,626 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $6,948 and $14,075 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In conjunction with this plan, the Company distributed cash payments of $19,516 and $4,532 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As of June 30, 2019, for the 2017 Long-term Incentive Plan, based on the Company's current assessment of the probability of the level of benchmarks being achieved, the total remaining expense to be accrued for this plan over the future vesting period ending March 15, 2023 is $77,933.

Employee Loans Receivable

Periodically, the Company provides new and existing employees with cash payments in the form of loans and/or other cash awards which are subject to ratable vesting terms with service requirements ranging from one to five years and in certain circumstances, subject to the achievement of performance requirements. Generally, the terms of these awards include a requirement of either full or partial repayment of these awards based on the terms of their employment agreements with the Company. In circumstances where the employee meets the Company's minimum credit standards, the Company amortizes these awards to compensation expense over the relevant service period which is generally the period they are subject to forfeiture. Compensation expense related to these awards was $5,741 and $9,346 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $4,787 and $8,109 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The remaining unamortized amount of these awards was $32,582 as of June 30, 2019.

Separation and Transition Benefits

The Company granted separation benefits to certain employees, resulting in expense included in Employee Compensation and Benefits of approximately $1,538 and $4,813 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $3,066 and $6,484 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In conjunction with these arrangements, the Company distributed cash payments of $1,533 and $3,257 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $2,997 and $5,873 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Lines of Credit – On June 24, 2016, Evercore Partners Services East L.L.C. ("East") entered into a loan agreement with PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC") for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30,000, to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. This facility is secured by East's accounts receivable and the proceeds therefrom, as well as certain assets of EGL, including certain of EGL's accounts receivable. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting covenants, as well as certain debt covenants that prohibit East and the Company from incurring other indebtedness, subject to specified exceptions. The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2019. Drawings under this facility bear interest at the prime rate. On January 2, 2018, East drew down $30,000 on this facility, which was repaid on March 2, 2018. On March 11, 2019, East drew down $30,000 on this facility, which was repaid on May 3, 2019.

On July 26, 2019, East entered into an additional loan agreement with PNC for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20,000, to be used for working capital and other corporate activities. The facility is unsecured and matures on October 31, 2020, subject to an extension agreed to between East and PNC. In addition, the agreement contains certain reporting requirements and debt covenants consistent with the Existing PNC Facility. Drawings under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points. East is only permitted to borrow under this facility if there is no undrawn availability under the Existing PNC Facility and must repay indebtedness under this facility prior to repaying indebtedness under the Existing PNC Facility.

ECB maintains a line of credit with BBVA Bancomer to fund its trading activities on an intra-day and overnight basis. The facility has a maximum aggregate principal amount of approximately $7,800 and is secured by trading securities. No interest is charged on the intra-day facility. The overnight facility is charged the Inter-Bank Balance Interest Rate plus 10 basis points. There have been no significant draw downs on ECB's line of credit since August 10, 2006. The line of credit is renewable annually.

Other Commitments – In addition, the Company enters into commitments to pay contingent consideration related to certain of its acquisitions. The Company paid $2,008 of its commitment for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of Kuna & Co, KG during the six months ended June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2019, the Company had a remaining commitment of $313 for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of Kuna & Co. KG.

The Company also had a commitment at June 30, 2019 for contingent consideration related to an arrangement with the former employer of certain RECA employees, which provides for contingent consideration to be paid to the former employer of up to $4,463, based on the completion of certain client engagements. The Company recognized expenses of $1,033 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 in Professional Fees on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations pursuant to this arrangement.

Restricted Cash – The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the statements of financial position that sum to the total of amounts shown in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

	June 30,
	2019		2018
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	374,321	$	403,929
Restricted Cash included in Other Assets	10,294		11,072
Total Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash shown in the Statement of Cash Flows	$	384,615	$	415,001

Restricted Cash included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition primarily represents letters of credit which are secured by cash as collateral for the lease of office space and security deposits for certain equipment. The restrictions will lapse when the leases end.

Foreign Exchange – On occasion, the Company enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts as an economic hedge against exchange rate risk for foreign currency denominated accounts receivable in EGL.

The Company entered into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to sell 3.8 billion Japanese yen for $35,598 during the first quarter of 2019 as an economic hedge against the exchange rate risk for Japanese yen denominated accounts receivable in EGL. These contracts settled in April 2019.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company and its affiliates are involved in judicial or regulatory proceedings, arbitration or mediation concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its businesses, including contractual and employment matters. In addition, Mexican, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canadian, Dubai and United States government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, as well as state securities commissions in the United States, conduct periodic examinations and initiate administrative proceedings regarding the Company's business, including, among other matters, accounting and operational matters, that can result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, investment advisor, or its directors, officers or employees. In view of the inherent difficulty of determining whether any loss in connection with such matters is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated, particularly in cases where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages or where investigations and proceedings are in the early stages, the Company cannot estimate the amount of such loss or range of loss, if any, related to such matters, how or if such matters will be resolved, when they will ultimately be resolved, or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, might be. Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that it is not currently party to any material pending proceedings (including the matter described below), individually or in the aggregate, the resolution of which would have a material effect on the Company. Provisions for losses are established in accordance with ASC 450, "Contingencies" ("ASC 450") when warranted. Once established, such provisions are adjusted when there is more information available or when an event occurs requiring a change.

Beginning on or about November 16, 2016, several putative securities class action complaints were filed against Adeptus Health Inc. ("Adeptus") and certain others, including EGL as underwriter, in connection with Adeptus' June 2014 initial public offering and May 2015, July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. The cases were consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas where a consolidated complaint was filed asserting, in part, that the offering materials issued in connection with the four public offerings violated the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 by containing alleged misstatements and omissions. On April 19, 2017, Adeptus filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was subsequently removed as a defendant. On November 21, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint, and the defendants filed motions to dismiss on February 5, 2018. On September 12, 2018, the defendants' motions to dismiss were granted as to the claims relating to the initial public offering and the May 2015 secondary public offering, but denied as to the claims relating to the July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. EGL underwrote approximately 293 shares of common stock in the July 2015 secondary public offering, representing an aggregate offering price of approximately $30.8 million, but did not underwrite any shares in the June 2016 secondary public offering. On September 25, 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint relating only to the July 2015 and June 2016 secondary public offerings. On December 7, 2018, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, and the defendants filed briefs in opposition. On February 16, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint after having been granted leave to amend by the court. On March 4, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss as to the second amended complaint.

Income Taxes

The Company's Provision for Income Taxes was $32,030 and $39,851 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $25,541 and $30,479 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate was 25% and 19% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and 24% and 14% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate reflects net excess tax benefits associated with the appreciation or depreciation in the Company's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price of $12,130 and $22,222 being recognized in the Company's Provision for Income Taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and resulted in a reduction in the effective tax rate of 6 and 10 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2019 and 2018 also reflects the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class E and J LP Units and Class I-P and K-P LP Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.

Additionally, the Company expects to recognize the income tax effects associated with the new global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions in the period incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, no additional income tax expense associated with the GILTI provisions has been reported and it is not expected to be material to the Company’s effective tax rate for the year.

The Company reported an increase in deferred tax assets of $205 associated with changes in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Marketable Securities and an increase of $262 associated with changes in Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Gain (Loss), in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company reported an increase in deferred tax assets of $130 associated with changes in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Marketable Securities and an increase of $1,108 associated with changes in Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Gain (Loss), in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, there was $615 of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, $501 would affect the effective tax rate. The Company anticipates approximately $122 of unrecognized tax benefits may be recognized within the year, as a result of the lapse in the statute of limitations.

The Company classifies interest relating to tax matters and tax penalties as a component of income tax expense in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Related to the unrecognized tax benefits, the Company accrued interest and penalties of $184 and $11, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company expects to reverse interest and penalty charges of $38 and $3 as a lapse in the statute of limitations within the year.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation, Policy

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, necessary to fairly present the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The December 31, 2018 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are comprised of the consolidation of Evercore LP and Evercore LP's wholly-owned and majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Evercore Group L.L.C. ("EGL"), a registered broker-dealer in the U.S. The Company's policy is to consolidate all subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest, as well as any variable interest entities ("VIEs") where the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, when it has the power to make the decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb significant losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reviews factors, including the rights of the equity holders and obligations of equity holders to absorb losses or receive expected residual returns, to determine if the investment is a VIE. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly by the Company. The consolidation analysis is generally performed qualitatively. This analysis, which requires judgment, is performed at each reporting date.

Evercore LP is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Specifically, the Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore LP and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity while the limited partners have no kick-out or substantive participating rights. The assets and liabilities of Evercore LP represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the Company with the exception of U.S. corporate taxes and related items, which are presented on the Company's (Parent Company Only) Condensed Statements of Financial Position in Note 24 to

the Company's consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Evercore ISI International Limited ("ISI U.K."), Evercore Partners International LLP ("Evercore U.K.") and Evercore (Japan) Ltd. ("Evercore Japan") are also VIEs, and the Company is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. Specifically for ISI U.K. and Evercore Japan (as of January 1, 2019 for Evercore Japan), the Company provides financial support through transfer pricing agreements with these entities, which exposes the Company to losses that are potentially significant to these entities, and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of these entities. The Company has the majority economic interest in Evercore U.K. and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of this entity. The Company included in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition ISI U.K., Evercore U.K. and Evercore Japan assets of $161,095 and liabilities of $101,937 at June 30, 2019 and ISI U.K. and Evercore U.K. assets of $190,223 and liabilities of $122,460 at December 31, 2018.

All intercompany balances and transactions with the Company's subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Leases, Policy

The Company adopted ASC 842, "Leases" ("ASC 842") on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method of transition. The Company did not have a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients, which does not require reassessment of whether contracts are or contain leases, of lease classification and of initial direct costs. The Company also elected the transition option in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements," ("ASU 2018-11") to not apply the new lease standard in comparative periods presented in financial statements in the year of adoption. Following the adoption of ASC 842, the Company includes all leases, including short-term leases, on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts for leases for the use of office equipment. Operating leases for office space generally contain payments for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses in addition to rent payments; the Company does not include these as part of the lease component.

Following the adoption of ASC 842, the present value of the Company's lease commitments are reflected as long-term assets, within Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets, with corresponding liabilities classified as current and non-current, within Operating Lease Liabilities on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company's right to use the underlying assets for their lease terms and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to certain adjustments for lease incentives and initial direct costs. The lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees.

Operating lease expense is included in Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (which did not change from the legacy U.S. GAAP presentation). See Notes 3 and 10 for further information.

Assumed exchange of LP Units for Class A Shares(a)(b)	648		1,297		810		1,459
Additional shares of the Company's common stock assumed to be issued pursuant to non-vested RSUs and deferred consideration, as calculated using the Treasury Stock Method	1,782		2,713		2,034		2,865
Shares that are contingently issuable(c)	400		400		400		400
Diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding	43,376		45,299		43,766		45,377
Diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders	$	1.88	$	1.52	$	3.40	$	3.62

(a) The Company has outstanding Class J limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class J LP Units"), which convert into Class E limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class E LP Units") and ultimately become exchangeable into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Class J LP Units were dilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been included in the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders under the if-converted method. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all Class J LP Units are converted into Class A Shares.

(b) The Company also has outstanding Class A and E LP Units in Evercore LP, which give the holders the right to receive Class A Shares upon exchange on a one-for-one basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Class A and E LP Units were antidilutive and consequently the effect of their exchange into Class A Shares has been excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders. The units that would have been included in the denominator of the computation of diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common

shareholders if the effect would have been dilutive were 5,312 and 5,201 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and 5,132 and 5,179 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The adjustment to the numerator, diluted net income attributable to Class A common shareholders, if the effect would have been dilutive, would have been $11,021 and $19,191 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $9,114 and $20,459 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. In computing this adjustment, the Company assumes that all vested Class A LP Units and all Class E LP Units are converted into Class A Shares, that all earnings attributable to those shares are attributed to Evercore Inc. and that the Company is subject to the statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional corporate tax structure in the U.S. at prevailing corporate tax rates. The Company does not anticipate that the Class A and E LP Units will result in a dilutive computation in future periods.

(c) The Company has outstanding Class I-P units of Evercore LP ("Class I-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class I limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class I LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, and outstanding Class K-P units of Evercore LP ("Class K-P Units") which are contingently exchangeable into Class K limited partnership units of Evercore LP ("Class K LP Units"), and ultimately Class A Shares, as they are subject to certain performance thresholds being achieved. For the purposes of calculating diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders, the Company's Class I-P and Class K-P Units are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding as of the beginning of the period in which all necessary performance conditions have been satisfied. If all necessary performance conditions have not been satisfied by the end of the period, the number of shares that are included in diluted weighted average Class A Shares outstanding is based on the number of shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the performance period. The Units that were assumed to be converted to an equal number of Class A Shares for purposes of computing diluted net income per share attributable to Evercore Inc. common shareholders were 400 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
