DEFINITIONS

In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the words “IES”, the “Company”, the “Registrant”, “we”, “our”, “ours” and “us” refer to Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. and, except as otherwise specified herein, to our subsidiaries.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, all of which are based upon various estimates and assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable as of the date hereof. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual future outcomes to differ materially from those set forth in such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

•

fluctuations in operating activity due to downturns in levels of construction, seasonality and differing regional economic conditions;

•

competition in the construction industry, both from third parties and former employees, which could result in the loss of one or more customers or lead to lower margins on new contracts;

•

a general reduction in the demand for our services;

•

a change in the mix of our customers, contracts and business;

•

our ability to successfully manage construction projects;

•

possibility of errors when estimating revenue and progress to date on percentage-of-completion contracts;

•

inaccurate estimates used when entering into fixed-priced contracts;

•

challenges integrating new types of work or new processes into our divisions;

•

the cost and availability of qualified labor;

•

accidents resulting from the physical hazards associated with our work and the potential for accidents;

•

success in transferring, renewing and obtaining electrical and construction licenses;

•

our ability to pass along increases in the cost of commodities used in our business, in particular, copper, aluminum, steel, fuel and certain plastics;

•

potential supply chain disruptions due to credit or liquidity problems faced by our suppliers;

•

loss of key personnel and effective transition of new management;

•

warranty losses or other latent defect claims in excess of our existing reserves and accruals;

•

warranty losses or other unexpected liabilities stemming from former divisions which we have sold or closed;

•

growth in latent defect litigation in states where we provide residential electrical work for home builders not otherwise covered by insurance;

•

limitations on the availability of sufficient credit or cash flow to fund our working capital needs;

•

difficulty in fulfilling the covenant terms of our credit facilities;

•

increased cost of surety bonds affecting margins on work and the potential for our surety providers to refuse bonding or require additional collateral at their discretion;

•

increases in bad debt expense and days sales outstanding due to liquidity problems faced by our customers;

•

changes in the assumptions made regarding future events used to value our stock options and performance-based stock awards;

•

the recognition of potential goodwill, long-lived assets and other investment impairments;

•

uncertainties inherent in estimating future operating results, including revenues, operating income or cash flow;

•

disagreements with taxing authorities with regard to tax positions we have adopted;

•

the recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions;

•

complications associated with the incorporation of new accounting, control and operating procedures;

•

the financial impact of new or proposed accounting regulations;

•

the ability of our controlling shareholder to take action not aligned with other shareholders;

•

the possibility that certain tax benefits of our net operating losses may be restricted or reduced in a change in ownership;

•

credit and capital market conditions, including changes in interest rates that affect the cost of construction financing and mortgages, and the inability for some of our customers to retain sufficient financing which could lead to project delays or cancellations;

•

the sale or disposition of the shares of our common stock held by our majority shareholder, which, under certain circumstances, would trigger change of control provisions in contracts such as employment agreements and financing and surety arrangements; and

•

Additional closures or sales of facilities in our Commercial & Industrial segment could result in significant future charges and a significant disruption of our operations.

You should understand that the foregoing, as well as other risk factors discussed in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2011, could cause future outcomes to differ materially from those experienced previously or those expressed in such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise information concerning our restructuring efforts, borrowing availability, cash position or any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report. Forward-looking statements are provided in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the safe harbor established under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and should be evaluated in the context of the estimates, assumptions, uncertainties and risks described herein.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(All Amounts in Thousands Except Share Amounts)

1. BUSINESS

Description of the Business

Integrated Electrical Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a leading national provider of electrical infrastructure services to the communications, residential, commercial and industrial industries. Originally established as IES in 1997, we provide services from 57 locations serving the continental United States as of March 31, 2012. Our operations are organized into three business segments, based upon the nature of its products and services:

•

Communications – Nationwide provider of products and services for mission critical infrastructure, such as data centers, of large corporations.

•

Residential – Regional provider of electrical installation services for single-family housing and multi-family apartment complexes.

•

Commercial & Industrial – Provider of electrical design, construction, and maintenance services to the commercial and industrial markets in various regional markets and nationwide in certain areas of expertise, such as the power infrastructure market.

Sale of Non-Strategic Manufacturing Facility

On November 30, 2010, a subsidiary of the Company sold substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of a non-strategic manufacturing facility engaged in manufacturing and selling fabricated metal buildings housing electrical equipment, such as switchgears, motor starters and control systems, to Siemens Energy, Inc. As part of this transaction, Siemens Energy, Inc. also acquired certain real property where the fabrication facilities are located from another subsidiary of the Company. The purchase price of $10,086 was adjusted to reflect working capital variances. The transaction was completed on December 10, 2010 at which time we recognized a gain of $6,763.

Sale of Non-Core Electrical Distribution Facility

On February 28, 2011, Key Electrical Supply, Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, sold substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of a non-core electrical distribution facility engaged in distributing wiring, lighting, electrical distribution, power control and generators for residential and commercial applications to Elliot Electric Supply, Inc. The purchase price of $6,676 was adjusted to reflect working capital variances. The loss on this transaction was immaterial.

Controlling Shareholder

At March 31, 2012, Tontine Capital Partners, L.P. and its affiliates (collectively, “Tontine”), was the controlling shareholder of the Company’s common stock. Accordingly, Tontine has the ability to exercise significant control of our affairs, including the election of directors and any action requiring the approval of shareholders, including the approval of any potential merger or sale of all or substantially all assets or divisions of the Company, or the Company itself. In its most recent Schedule 13D, Tontine stated that it has no current plans to make any material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure. For a more complete discussion on our relationship with Tontine, please refer to Note 2 “Controlling Shareholder” in the notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Related Party Transaction

On March 29, 2012, we entered into a sublease agreement with Tontine Associates, LLC, an affiliate of our controlling shareholder, for corporate office space in Greenwich, Connecticut. The lease extends from April 1, 2012 through March 31, 2014, with monthly payments due in the amount of $6.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(All Amounts in Thousands Except Share Amounts)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of, and the results of operations for, the periods presented. All adjustments are considered to be normal and recurring unless otherwise described herein. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for the full year. During interim periods, we follow the same accounting policies disclosed in our annual report of Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2011. Please refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2011, when reviewing our interim financial results set forth herein.

Revenue Recognition

As of March 31, 2012 the Company had recognized revenue totaling $1,098 associated with one contract claim. We recognize revenue associated with unapproved change orders and claims to the extent that related costs have been incurred, recovery is probable and the value can be reliably estimated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, investments, accounts payable, a line of credit, a note payable issued to finance an insurance policy, and a $10,000 senior subordinated loan agreement (the “Tontine Term Loan”). We believe that the carrying value of financial instruments, with the exception of the Tontine Term Loan and our cost method investment in EnerTech, in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates their fair value due to their short-term nature. We estimate that the fair value of the Tontine Term Loan is $10,457 based on comparable debt instruments at March 31, 2012. For additional information, please refer to Note 4, “Debt – The Tontine Term Loan” of this report.

We estimate that the fair value of our investment in EnerTech is $1,097 at March 31, 2012. For additional information, please refer to Note 8, “Securities and Equity Investments – Investment in EnerTech.

Asset Impairment

During the six months ended March 31, 2011 the Company ceased use of certain internally-developed software. As a result, the software has a fair value of zero. The net charge of $3,551 was recorded separately in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as a component of loss from operations.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the use of estimates and assumptions by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are primarily used in our revenue recognition of construction in progress, fair value assumptions in analyzing goodwill, investments, intangible assets and long-lived asset impairments and adjustments, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, stock-based compensation, reserves for legal matters, assumptions regarding estimated costs to exit certain divisions, realizability of deferred tax assets, and self-insured claims liabilities and related reserves.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We have restricted cash used to collateralize our letters of credit.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

Results of operations from our Residential construction segment are seasonal, depending on weather trends, with typically higher revenues generated during spring and summer and lower revenues during fall and winter. The Communications and Commercial & Industrial segments of our business are less subject to seasonal trends, as work in these segments generally is

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(All Amounts in Thousands Except Share Amounts)

performed inside structures protected from the weather. Our service and maintenance business is generally not affected by seasonality. In addition, the construction industry has historically been highly cyclical. Our volume of business may be adversely affected by declines in construction projects resulting from adverse regional or national economic conditions. Quarterly results may also be materially affected by the timing of new construction projects. Accordingly, operating results for any fiscal period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for any subsequent fiscal period.

2. CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER

As of March 31, 2012, $10,000 remains outstanding on the Tontine Term Loan, with $274 in accrued interest.

Although Tontine has not indicated any plans to alter its ownership level, should Tontine reconsider its investment plans and sell its controlling interest in the Company, a change in ownership would occur. A change in ownership, as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 382, could reduce the availability of net operating losses for federal and state income tax purposes. Furthermore, a change in control would trigger the change of control provisions in a number of our material agreements, including our $40,000 Revolving Credit Facility, bonding agreements with our sureties and certain employment contracts with certain officers and employees of the Company.

Tontine Capital Partners, L.P. and its affiliates own the majority of our common stock. As a significant stakeholder, Tontine provides strategic, general corporate, operational, organizational and financial advice to our board of directors and management. Although such advice may be considered by the board and management, neither the board nor management is under any legal obligation to follow such advice.

3. STRATEGIC ACTIONS

The 2011 Restructuring Plan

In the second quarter of our 2011 fiscal year, we began a restructuring program (the “2011 Restructuring Plan”) that was designed to consolidate operations within our Commercial & Industrial business. Pursuant to the 2011 Restructuring Plan, we will finalize the sale or closure of certain underperforming facilities within our Commercial & Industrial operations. The 2011 Restructuring Plan is a key element of our commitment to return the Company to profitability.

The facilities directly affected by the 2011 Restructuring Plan are in several locations throughout the country, including Arizona, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, Louisiana, Nevada and Texas. These facilities were selected due to current business prospects and the extended time frame needed to return the facilities to a profitable position. We expect that closure costs could range from $4,500 to $5,500 in the aggregate. Closure costs associated with the 2011 Restructuring Plan include equipment and facility lease termination expenses, incremental management consulting expenses and severance costs for employees. The Company is in the process of winding down these facilities. As part of our restructuring charges within our Commercial & Industrial segment we recognized $35 in severance costs, $764 in consulting services, and $65 in costs related to lease terminations during the six months ended March 31, 2012.

The following table summarizes the activities related to our restructuring activities by component:


	Severance Charges			Consulting Charges			Lease Termination & Other Charges			Total
Restructuring liability at September 30, 2011	$	1,081		$	336		$	790		$	2,207
Restructuring charges incurred		35			764			65			864
Cash payments made		(650	)		(1,084	)		(268	)		(2,002	)

Additional Facility Closing

During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company determined the underperforming Baltimore facility within its Commercial & Industrial and Communications divisions would be either sold or closed over the next three to six months. This closing is a key element of management’s overall plan to return the Company to profitability. The Baltimore location was selected based upon current businesses performance and the extended time frame needed to return the operation to profitability. We expect that closure costs could range from $340 to $480 in the aggregate.

4. DEBT

Debt consists of the following:


	March 31, 2012			September 30, 2011
Tontine Term Loan, due May 15, 2013, bearing interest at 11.00%	$	10,000		$	10,000

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we incurred interest expense of $543 and $576, respectively.

The Revolving Credit Facility

On May 12, 2006, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders. On May 7, 2008, we renegotiated the terms of our Revolving Credit Facility and entered into an amended agreement with the same financial institutions. On April 30, 2010, we renegotiated the terms of, and entered into an amendment to, the Loan and Security Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date was extended to May 31, 2012. In connection with the amendment, we incurred an amendment fee of $200, which is being amortized over 24 months.

On December 15, 2011, we renegotiated the terms of, and entered into an amendment to, the Loan and Security Agreement without incurring termination charges. Under the terms of the amended Revolving Credit Facility, the size of the facility was reduced to $40,000 and the maturity date was extended to November 12, 2012. Further, we were required to cash collateralize all of our letters of credit issued by the banks. The cash collateral is added to the borrowing base calculation at 100% throughout the term of the agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility requires that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0 at any time that our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability is less than $25,000 and, thereafter, until such time as our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability has been at least $25,000 for a period of 60 consecutive days. Additionally, if there are any loans outstanding on or after April 30, 2012, the Company’s EBITDA for the period from October 2011 through March 2012, may not exceed a negative $2,500 and we will be required to have a cumulative fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0:1.0 at all times beginning April 1, 2012 to maintain any borrowings under the agreement. The measurement period for this additional test for borrowings begins with the monthly operating results for April 2012 and adds the monthly operating results for each month thereafter to determine the cumulative test during such time as revolving loans are outstanding. Failure to meet this performance test will result in an immediate event of default. The amended Agreement also calls for cost of borrowings of 4.0% over LIBOR per annum. Cost for letters of credit are the same as borrowings and also include a 25 basis point “fronting fee.” All other terms and conditions remain unchanged. In connection with the amendment, we incurred an amendment fee of $60 which, together with the unamortized balance of the prior amendment, is being amortized using the straight line method through November 12, 2012.

The Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by our subsidiaries and secured by first priority liens on substantially all of our subsidiaries’ existing and future acquired assets, exclusive of collateral provided to our surety providers. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants. The Revolving Credit Facility also restricts us from paying cash dividends and places limitations on our ability to repurchase our common stock.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may not exceed a “borrowing base” that is determined monthly by our lenders based on available collateral, primarily certain accounts receivables and inventories. Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility in effect as of March 31, 2012, interest for loans and letter of credit fees is based on our Total Liquidity, which is calculated for any given period as the sum of average daily availability for such period plus average daily unrestricted cash on hand for such period as follows:


		Annual Interest Rate for
Total Liquidity	Annual Interest Rate for Loans	Letters of Credit
Greater than or equal to $60,000	LIBOR plus 3.00% or Base Rate plus 1.00%	3.00% plus 0.25% fronting fee
Greater than $40,000 and less than $60,000	LIBOR plus 3.25% or Base Rate plus 1.25%	3.25% plus 0.25% fronting fee
Less than or equal to $40,000	LIBOR plus 3.50% or Base Rate plus 1.50%	3.50% plus 0.25% fronting fee

At March 31, 2012, we had $22,009 available to us under the Revolving Credit Facility, with no outstanding borrowings. We had $8,812 in outstanding letters of credit which were fully collateralized with restricted cash.

At March 31, 2012, our Total Liquidity was $39,770. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we paid no interest for loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and had a weighted average interest rate, including fronting fees, of 3.50% for letters of credit. In addition, we are charged monthly in arrears for (1) an unused commitment fee of 0.50%, and (2) certain other fees and charges as specified in the Loan and Security Agreement, as amended.

As of March 31, 2012, we were subject to the financial covenant under the Revolving Credit Facility requiring that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0 at any time that our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability is less than $25,000 and, thereafter, until such time as our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability has been at least $25,000 for a period of 60 consecutive days. As of March 31, 2012, our Total Liquidity was in excess of $25,000 for the prior 60 day period. Had our Total Liquidity been less than $25,000 at March 31, 2012, we would not have met the 1.0:1.0 fixed charge coverage ratio test, had it been applicable.

The Tontine Term Loan

On December 12, 2007, we entered into the Tontine Term Loan, a $25,000 senior subordinated loan agreement, with Tontine. The Tontine Term Loan bears interest at 11.0% per annum and is due on May 15, 2013. Interest is payable quarterly in cash or in-kind at our option. Any interest paid in-kind will bear interest at 11.0% in addition to the loan principal. On April 30, 2010, we prepaid $15,000 of principal on the Tontine Term Loan. On May 1, 2010, Tontine assigned the Tontine Term Loan to TCP Overseas Master Fund II, L.P. We may repay the Tontine Term Loan at any time prior to the maturity date at par, plus accrued interest without penalty. The Tontine Term Loan is subordinated to the Revolving Credit Facility. The Tontine Term Loan is an unsecured obligation of the Company and its subsidiary borrowers. The Tontine Term Loan contains no financial covenants or restrictions on dividends or distributions to stockholders.

5. PER SHARE INFORMATION

Basic earnings per share is calculated as income (loss) available to common stockholders, divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Our restricted shares are considered participating securities, but do not have a contractual obligation to share in the losses in any given period. As a result, these participating securities will not be allocated any losses in the periods of net losses, but will be allocated income in the periods of net income using the two-class method.

The following table reconciles the components of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, (in thousands, except share information):

For the three months and six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 20,000 and 158,500 stock options, respectively, were excluded from the computation of fully diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the average price of our common stock. For the three months and six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 352,360 and 419,600 shares, respectively, of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of fully diluted earnings per share because we reported a loss from continuing operations.

6. OPERATING SEGMENTS

We manage and measure performance of our business in three distinct operating segments: Communications, Residential and Commercial & Industrial. These segments are reflective of how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reviews operating results for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Communications segment consists of low voltage installation, design, planning and maintenance for mission critical infrastructure such as data centers. The Residential segment consists of electrical installation, replacement and renovation services in single-family, condominium, townhouse and low-rise multifamily housing units. The Commercial & Industrial segment provides a broad range of electrical design, construction, renovation, engineering and maintenance services to the commercial and industrial markets.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. We evaluate performance based on income from operations of the respective business units prior to the allocation of Corporate office expenses. Transactions between segments are eliminated in consolidation. Our Corporate office provides general and administrative as well as support services to our three operating segments. Management allocates costs to segments for selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation expense.

Segment information for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The 2006 Equity Incentive Plan became effective on May 12, 2006 (as amended, the “2006 Equity Incentive Plan”). The 2006 Equity Incentive Plan provides for grants of stock options as well as grants of stock, including restricted stock. We have approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan.

On May 12, 2008, 10,555 shares of outstanding common stock that were reserved for issuance upon exchange of previously issued shares pursuant to our Plan were cancelled.

Treasury Stock

During the six months ended March 31, 2012, we repurchased 34,578 common shares from our employees to satisfy minimum tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of restricted stock issued under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, and 27,242 unvested shares were forfeited by former employees and returned to treasury stock. We issued 100,000 shares out of treasury stock under our share-based compensation programs.

During the six months ended March 31, 2011, we repurchased 18,846 common shares from our employees to satisfy minimum tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of restricted stock issued under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and 63,077 unvested shares were forfeited by former employees and returned to treasury stock. We issued 204,000 shares out of treasury stock under our share-based compensation programs.

During the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized $276 and $436 respectively, in compensation expense related to these restricted stock awards. At March 31, 2012, the unamortized compensation cost related to outstanding unvested restricted stock was $749. We expect to recognize $261 of this unamortized compensation expense during the remaining six months of our 2012 fiscal year and $488 thereafter. A summary of restricted stock awards for the years ended September 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is provided in the table below:

All the restricted shares granted under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (vested or unvested) participate in dividends issued to common shareholders, if any.

Phantom Stock Units

We granted 24,632 shares of performance-based phantom stock units (“PSUs”) to the members of the Board of Directors in 2011. These PSU’s will be paid via unrestricted stock grants to each director upon his departure from the Board of Directors.

Stock Options

We utilized a binomial option pricing model to measure the fair value of stock options granted. Our determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, the risk-free rate of return, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The expected life of stock options is not considered under the binomial option pricing model that we utilize. The assumptions used in the fair value method calculation for the years ended September 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 are disclosed in the following table:

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of the share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. We estimate our forfeitures at the time of grant and revise, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

	20,000	9.30	$3.24	—	$3.24

All of our outstanding options vest over a three-year period at a rate of one-third per year upon the annual anniversary date of the grant and expire ten years from the grant date if they are not exercised. Upon exercise of stock options, it is our policy to first issue shares from treasury stock, then to issue new shares. Unexercised stock options expire by July 2021.

8. SECURITIES AND EQUITY INVESTMENTS

Investment in EnerTech Capital Partners II L.P.

Our investment in EnerTech was approximately 2% of the overall ownership in EnerTech at March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011. As such, we accounted for this investment using the cost method of accounting.

EnerTech’s investment portfolio periodically results in unrealized losses reflecting a possible, other-than-temporary impairment of our investment. If the facts arise that lead us to determine that any unrealized losses are not temporary, we would write-down our investment in EnerTech through a charge to other expense in the period of such determination. The carrying value of our investment in EnerTech at March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011 was $1,003 and $1,003, respectively, and is currently recorded as a component of Other Non-Current Assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table presents the reconciliation of the carrying value and unrealized gains (losses) to the fair value of the investment in EnerTech as of March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011:


	March 31,		September 30,
	2012		2011
Carrying value	$	1,003		$	1,003
Unrealized gains (losses)		94			—

Fair value	$	1,097		$	1,003

On December 31, 2011, EnerTech’s general partner, with the consent of the fund’s investors, extended the fund through December 31, 2012. The fund will terminate on this date unless extended by the fund’s valuation committee. The fund may be extended for another one-year period through December 31, 2013 with the consent of the fund’s valuation committee.

9. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

401(k) Plan

In November 1998, we established the Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”). All full-time IES employees are eligible to participate on the first day of the month subsequent to completing thirty days of service and attaining age twenty-one. Participants become vested in our matching contributions following three years of service.

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(All Amounts in Thousands Except Share Amounts)

On February 13, 2009, we suspended company matching cash contributions to employee’s contributions due to the significant impact the economic recession has had on the Company’s financial performance. We made no contributions to the 401(k) plan for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Executive Deferred Compensation Plan

Under the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan certain employees are permitted to defer a portion (up to 75%) of their base salary and/or bonus for a Plan Year. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, credit one or more participants with an employer deferral (contribution) in such amount as the Committee may choose (“Employer Contribution”). The Employer Contribution, if any, may be a fixed dollar amount, a fixed percentage of the participant’s compensation, base salary, or bonus, or a “matching” amount with respect to all or part of the participant’s elective deferrals for such plan year, and/or any combination of the foregoing as the Committee may choose.

On February 13, 2009, we suspended Company matching cash contributions to employee’s contributions due to the significant impact the economic recession has had on the Company’s financial performance. We made no contributions to the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively.

Post Retirement Benefit Plans

Certain individuals at one of the Company’s locations are entitled to receive fixed annual payments that reach a maximum amount, as specified in the related agreements, for a ten year period following retirement or, in some cases, the attainment of 62 years of age. We recognize the unfunded status of the plan as part of current liabilities and non-current liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Benefits vest 50% after ten years of service, which increases by 10% per annum until benefits are fully vested after 15 years of service. We had an unfunded benefit liability of $746 and $597 recorded as of March 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively.

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Measurement Accounting

This disclosure relates to the activity for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of assets and liabilities within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, we provide enhanced disclosure of the valuation techniques and inputs used in the fair value measurements within Level 2 and Level 3 when applicable.

Fair value is considered the price to sell an asset, or transfer a liability, between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value measurements assume that the asset or liability is (1) exchanged in an orderly manner, (2) the exchange is in the principal market for that asset or liability, and (3) the market participants are independent, knowledgeable, able and willing to transact an exchange. Fair value accounting and reporting establishes a framework for measuring fair value by creating a hierarchy for observable independent market inputs and unobservable market assumptions and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop fair value estimates. As such, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methods could have a material effect on the estimated fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 are summarized in the following table by the type of inputs applicable to the fair value measurements:

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(All Amounts in Thousands Except Share Amounts)


	Total Fair Value			Quoted Prices (Level 1)			Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable (Level 3)
Money market accounts	$	8,817		$	8,817			—		—
Executive Savings Plan assets		548			548			—		—
Executive Savings Plan liabilities		(541	)		(541	)		—		—

Total	$	8,824		$	8,824			—		—

Below is a description of the inputs used to value the assets summarized in the preceding table:

Level 1 — Inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets exchanged in active markets.

Level 2 — Inputs include directly or indirectly observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets exchanged in active or inactive markets; quoted prices for identical assets exchanged in inactive markets; and other inputs that are considered in fair value determinations of the assets.

Level 3 — Inputs include unobservable inputs used in the measurement of assets. Management is required to use its own assumptions regarding unobservable inputs because there is little, if any, market activity in the assets or related observable inputs that can be corroborated at the measurement date.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

From time to time we are a party to various claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We maintain various insurance coverage to minimize financial risk associated with these proceedings. None of these proceedings, separately or in the aggregate, are expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. With respect to all such proceedings, we record reserves when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We expense routine legal costs related to these proceedings as they are incurred.

The following is a discussion of our significant legal matters:

Ward Transformer Site

One of our subsidiaries has been identified as one of more than 200 potentially responsible parties (PRPs) with respect to the clean-up of an electric transformer resale and reconditioning facility, known as the Ward Transformer Site, located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The facility built, repaired, reconditioned and sold electric transformers from approximately 1964 to 2005. We did not own or operate the facility but a corporation that we acquired in July 1999 is believed to have sent transformers to the facility during the 1990’s. During the course of its operation, the facility was contaminated by Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), which also have been found to have migrated off the site.

Four PRPs have commenced clean-up of on-site contaminated soils under an Emergency Removal Action pursuant to a settlement agreement and Administrative Order on Consent entered into between the four PRPs and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in September 2005. We are not a party to that settlement agreement or Order on Consent. In April 2009, two of these PRPs, Carolina Power and Light Company and Consolidation Coal Company, filed suit against us and most of the other PRPs in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina (Western Division) to contribute to the cost of the clean-up. In addition to the on-site clean-up, the EPA has selected approximately 50 PRPs to which it sent a Special Notice Letter in late 2008 to organize the clean-up of soils off site and address contamination of groundwater and other miscellaneous off-site issues. We were not a recipient of that letter.

Based on our investigation to date, there is evidence to support our defense that our subsidiary contributed no PCB contamination to the site. In addition, we have tendered a demand for indemnification to the former owner of the acquired corporation that may have transacted business with the facility. As of March 31, 2012, we have not recorded a reserve for this matter, as we believe the likelihood of our responsibility for damages is not probable and a potential range of exposure is not estimable.

Risk Management

We retain the risk for workers’ compensation, employer’s liability, automobile liability, general liability and employee group health claims, resulting from uninsured deductibles per accident or occurrence which are subject to annual aggregate limits. Our general liability program provides coverage for bodily injury and property damage. Losses up to the deductible amounts are accrued based upon our known claims incurred and an estimate of claims incurred but not reported. As a result, many of our claims are effectively self-insured. Many claims against our insurance are in the form of litigation. At March 31, 2012, we had $7,207 accrued for insurance liabilities. We are also subject to construction defect liabilities, primarily within our Residential segment. As of March 31, 2012, we had reserved $402 for these claims.

Some of the underwriters of our casualty insurance program require us to post letters of credit as collateral. This is common in the insurance industry. To date, we have not had a situation where an underwriter has had reasonable cause to effect payment under a letter of credit. At March 31, 2012, $8,182 of our outstanding letters of credit were utilized to collateralize our insurance program.

Surety

Many customers, particularly in connection with new construction, require us to post performance and payment bonds issued by a surety. Those bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that we will perform under the terms of our contract and that we will pay our subcontractors and vendors. If we fail to perform under the terms of our contract or to pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. We must reimburse the sureties for any expenses or outlays they incur on our behalf. To date, we have not been required to make any reimbursements to our sureties for bond-related costs.

As is common in the surety industry, sureties issue bonds on a project-by-project basis and can decline to issue bonds at any time. We believe that our relationships with our sureties will allow us to provide surety bonds as they are required. However, current market conditions, as well as changes in our sureties’ assessment of our operating and financial risk, could cause our sureties to decline to issue bonds for our work. If our sureties decline to issue bonds for our work, our alternatives would include posting other forms of collateral for project performance, such as letters of credit or cash, seeking bonding capacity from other sureties, or engaging in more projects that do not require surety bonds. In addition, if we are awarded a project for which a surety bond is required but we are unable to obtain a surety bond, the result can be a claim for damages by the customer for the costs of replacing us with another contractor.

As of March 31, 2012, the estimated cost to complete our bonded projects was approximately $75,430. We evaluate our bonding requirements on a regular basis, including the terms offered by our sureties. On May 7, 2010 we entered into a new surety agreement. We believe the bonding capacity presently provided by our current sureties is adequate for our current operations and will be adequate for our operations for the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2012, we had outstanding $3,959 to collateralize our obligations to certain of our previous sureties (as is included in Other Non-Current Assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheet). Posting letters of credit in favor of our sureties reduces the borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

Some of our customers and vendors require us to post letters of credit as a means of guaranteeing performance under our contracts and ensuring payment by us to subcontractors and vendors. If our customer has reasonable cause to effect payment under a letter of credit, we would be required to reimburse our creditor for the letter of credit. At March 31, 2012, $630 of our outstanding letters of credit was to collateralize our vendors.

On January 9, 2012, we entered into a settlement agreement with regard to $2,000 of collateral held by a surety who previously issued construction payment and performance bonds for us. The agreement called for a total settlement of $2,200 to be paid in monthly installments through February 2013. In the event of default, we are entitled to file and execute upon an agreed judgment in our favor in the amount of $2,450. To date, we have received payments of $175; however, the payment due on April 30, 2012 has not been received as of the filing of this Form 10-Q. We are currently negotiating revised payment terms with the surety and have not filed the agreed judgment. Collection of this debt is deemed probable, but there is a risk of loss ranging from $0 to $1,825, the recorded value as of the filing of this Form 10-Q. Conversely, there is potential for additional other income of $450 under the terms of the agreed judgment offset by associated legal fees. To date, we have made no adjustment to the outstanding receivable balance, which was $1,975 as of March 31, 2012, and, in any event, intend to aggressively pursue full payment. In the event we are unsuccessful in

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(All Amounts in Thousands Except Share Amounts)

negotiating revised payment terms acceptable to us or the surety otherwise fails to make payment to us, we intend to file the agreed judgment in the amount of $2,450, less payments made to the date of such filing. The amount of the agreed judgment is subject to interest at the rate of 5.0% per annum.

Between October 2004 and September 2005, we sold all or substantially all of the assets of certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. As these sales were assets sales, rather than stock sales, we may be required to fulfill obligations that were assigned or sold to others, if the purchaser is unwilling or unable to perform the transferred liabilities. If this were to occur, we would seek reimbursement from the purchasers. These potential liabilities will continue to diminish over time. To date, we have not been required to perform on any projects sold under this divestiture program.

From time to time, we may enter into firm purchase commitments for materials such as copper or aluminum wire which we expect to use in the ordinary course of business. These commitments are typically for terms less than one year and require us to buy minimum quantities of materials at specific intervals at a fixed price over the term. As of March 31, 2012, we had no such open purchase commitments.

12. RESTATEMENT

Restatement

The September 30, 2011 consolidated financial statements included in our Original Form 10-K filed on December 20, 2011 contained errors primarily related to the understatement of our vacation accrual that should have been recorded at September 30, 2008 and in each subsequent annual and interim period to September 30, 2011. Additionally, for all restated periods we recorded other immaterial adjustments. These adjustments included, but were not limited to, recording billing, payroll and other accruals, and the associated revenue impacts, in the proper accounting period. Accordingly, the September 30, 2011 consolidated financial statements, and all quarterly periods therein, were restated to properly record these transactions and other immaterial adjustments. Refer to our amended form 10-K/A for a more detailed explanation. In addition, we have restated the Statement of Cash Flows and segment information for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2011 to correct for these errors in these financial statements.

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

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements, the related notes, and management’s discussion and analysis included in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2011. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to the risk factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2011, and in the “Disclosures Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”, and elsewhere in this quarterly report on form 10-Q. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

All dollar values reported in this section are reported in thousands of dollars unless otherwise specified.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

We have identified the accounting principles that we believe are most critical to our reported financial status by considering accounting policies that involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments. These accounting policies are those related to revenue recognition, the assessment of goodwill impairment, our allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, the recording of our self-insurance liabilities and our estimation of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. These accounting policies, as well as others, are described in Part 2. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2011.

SALE OF FACILITIES

Sale of Non-Strategic Manufacturing Facility

Sale of Non-Core Electrical Distribution Facility

On February 28, 2011, Key Electrical Supply, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, sold substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of a non-core electrical distribution facility engaged in distributing wiring, lighting, electrical distribution, power control and generators for residential and commercial applications to Elliot Electric Supply, Inc. The purchase price of $6,676 was adjusted to reflect working capital variances. The loss on this transaction was immaterial.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

Results of operations from our Residential construction segment are subject to seasonal fluctuations, depending on weather trends, with typically higher revenues generated during spring and summer and lower revenues generated during fall and winter. The Communications and Commercial & Industrial segments of our business are less subject to seasonal trends, as work in these segments generally is performed inside structures protected from the weather. Our service and maintenance business is generally not affected by seasonality. In addition, the construction industry has historically been highly cyclical. Our volume of business may be adversely affected by declines in construction projects resulting from adverse regional or national economic conditions. Quarterly results may also be materially affected by the timing of new construction projects. Accordingly, operating results for any fiscal period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for any subsequent fiscal period.

The 2011 Restructuring Plan

In the second quarter of our 2011 fiscal year, we began a new restructuring program (the “2011 Restructuring Plan”) that was designed to consolidate operations within our Commercial & Industrial business. Pursuant to the 2011 Restructuring Plan we will either sell or close certain underperforming facilities within our Commercial & Industrial operations. The 2011 Restructuring Plan is a key element of our commitment to return the Company to profitability.

The facilities directly affected by the 2011 Restructuring Plan are in several locations throughout the country, including Arizona, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, Louisiana, Nevada and Texas. These facilities were selected due to current business prospects and the extended time frame needed to return the facilities to a profitable position. We expect that closure costs could range from $4,500 to $5,500 in the aggregate. Closure costs associated with the 2011 Restructuring Plan include equipment and facility lease termination expenses, incremental management consulting expenses and severance costs for employees. As part of our restructuring charges for the six months ended March 31, 2012 within our Commercial & Industrial segment we recognized $35 in severance costs, $764 in consulting services, and $65 in costs related to lease terminations. The Company is in the process of winding down these facilities. As the Company concludes the wind-down and closure process for each of these facilities, their respective results of operations will be reclassified and presented within future statements of operations as “Discontinued Operations.” US GAAP does not permit an earlier reclassification.

At March 31, 2012, the estimated costs to complete the 14 projects remaining at these facilities totaled approximately $3,372; of which all but approximately $392 has been subcontracted to other electrical contractors. Historically, the wind-down operations negatively impacted liquidity due to their underperformance. For fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, the last reporting period prior to the impact of winding-down, these facilities experienced revenue of $62,968, selling general & administrative expenses of $9,590, and an operating loss of $9,536. For fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 these wind down facilities experienced revenue of $43,736, selling general and administrative expenses of $5,019 and an operating loss of $18,084. Included within the 2011 selling general and administrative expenses is a $2,850 settlement of an outstanding receivable, written off in a prior period. Excluding this settlement during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, operating loss for these wind-down facilities was $20,934. In many cases, the losses increased as these facilities experienced cost associated with the wind-down. These costs include, subcontracting previously self-performed work, difficulties in retaining experienced staff, charges associated with facility lease termination, employee severance and retention agreements and professional fees.

To date, we have completed approximately 90% of the backlog of these facilities that existed at the adoption of the restructuring plan. As a result, revenues and selling general & administrative expenses have been substantially reduced. For the six months ended March 31, 2012, these wind-down facilities experienced revenues of $6,217, selling general & administrative expenses of $502 and an operating loss of $3,196. The operating loss for the six months ended March 31, 2012 is being negatively impacted by the operational difficulties associated with the wind-down as detailed above. Additionally, to date we have recognized the majority of the expected severance, retention and lease termination charges.

The completion of the wind-down of these facilities will eliminate the revenues, as well as the associated operating losses and negative liquidity impact. The majority of costs associated with these facilities are directly related to their distinct operations. As such, the majority of the costs will be eliminated upon the completion of the wind-down process. The go-forward operations will benefit from the elimination of negative financial impact of these underperforming operations.

The following table presents the results of operations for the 2011 Restructuring Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2012:

Consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $5,519 less than the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of 4.7%.

Our Communications segment revenues increased $5,656 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, a 24.2% increase compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. We recognized revenues of $5,305 that can be attributed to the commencement of work on a significant project from a long term customer during the first quarter 2012. The markets we serve have expanded rapidly as the current and expected demand for information and data storage has increased. We have a long history of serving our customers in such mission critical environments, resulting in our increased revenue as these markets continue to expand.

Our Residential segment revenues increased $3,318 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of 12.6% as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Approximately $3,324 of the revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2011 were attributable to the non-core electrical distribution facility that was sold in February 2011. Excluding

the revenues from the divested facility, our Residential segment showed an increase, quarter over quarter, of $6,642. The increase is due primarily to an increase in our single-family revenues of approximately $3,300. While the strongest growth was seen in our Texas markets, which represents approximately 75% of our single-family sales, we experienced similar growth as a percentage increase in our other markets as well. Additionally, our Residential segment entered into the solar installation market in late 2011, concentrated primarily in California. Solar installation revenue was approximately $2,400. Multi-family revenues increased approximately $1,100, attributable to an influx of private financing options over HUD/FHA backed financing, and increased apartment occupancy rates creating a demand for the construction of apartment units.

Our Commercial & Industrial segment revenues decreased $14,493 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 21.1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011 primarily due to a decrease in revenues associated with the Company’s wind-down facilities described in the 2011 Restructuring Plan. Revenues associated with the wind-down facilities described in the 2011 Restructuring Plan totaled $3,135, a decrease of $8,856 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Excluding the revenues associated with the wind-down facilities, revenues decreased $5,897. We experienced a decline in revenues in our Oregon and Nebraska facilities of approximately $2,000 and $1,800, respectively, due to the completion of large projects in both locations. Additionally, we are in the process of winding down our Baltimore facility and, as such, have experienced a reduction in revenues of approximately $1,400.

Our consolidated gross profit percentage increased to 11.2% during the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to 4.5% during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Our Communications segment gross profit increased $1,356 during the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in gross profit was driven by increased revenues coupled with an increase in gross margin. Gross profit was negatively impacted by the Baltimore office, which had a negative gross profit of $276 and $246 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, and March 31, 2011, respectively. The Baltimore location was selected for closure based upon current business performance and the extended time frame needed to return the operation to profitability.

Our Residential segment gross profit increased $935 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Gross margin in the Residential segment increased to 15.3% during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Single family operations comprised the largest increase in gross profit at $1,100, attributed to the stability in the price of copper wire as well as an overall increase in revenue volume. Additionally, an increase of approximately $200 of the gross profit increase can be attributed to our entrance into the solar installation market. The remaining increase in gross profit results from decreased insurance claim development costs, offset by reduced margins in the multi-family operations due to increased competition and job specific difficulties encountered in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Our Commercial & Industrial segment gross profit increased $4,885 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. The negative gross margins associated with the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan resulted in $537 of negative gross profit during the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to a negative gross profit of $1,395 during the during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The negative gross margins recorded for the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan are

primarily due to higher costs associated with either subcontracting or assigning certain contracts to other electrical subcontractors together with the extensive operating difficulties relating to labor productivity following the notice of the potential sale or closure of these facilities. The Baltimore facility, within Commercial & Industrial segment, had a negative gross profit of $235 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $12, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Baltimore location was selected for closure based upon current business performance and the extended time frame needed to return the operation to profitability. Excluding the gross profit associated with the wind-down facilities, gross profit increased $4,060. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we experienced losses on contracts in our Colorado and Nebraska facilities, totaling approximately $2,600. Additionally, we benefited from improved performance in Oregon and Virginia facilities during the three months ended March 31, 2012, that totaled approximately $1,400.

Total Consolidated	$	15,222		13.5	%	$	14,072		11.9	%

Selling, general and administrative expenses include costs not directly associated with performing work for our customers. These costs consist primarily of compensation and benefits related to corporate and division management, occupancy and utilities, training, professional services, information technology costs, consulting fees, travel and certain types of depreciation and amortization. We allocate certain corporate selling, general and administrative costs across our segments as we believe this more accurately reflects the costs associated with operating each segment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expenses were $15,222, an increase of $1,150, or 8.2%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Included in the three months ended March 31, 2011 is a recovery of $2,850 settlement of an outstanding receivable, written off in a prior period. Excluding this, the selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1,700, and as a percent of revenue to 13.5% in 2012 from 14.3% in 2011.

Our Communications segment experienced an increase of $1,028 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in the Communications segment increased to 11.5% of segment revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to higher expenses associated with our expansion of facilities in Southern California. Additionally, bad debt expenses increased due primarily to the wind-down operations of our Baltimore facility.

Our Residential segment experienced an increase of $25 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Approximately $899 of the selling, general and administrative expenses included in the three months ended March 31, 2011 is attributable to the non-core electrical distribution facility that was sold in February 2011. Removing this from the comparison, the actual change, period over period, was an increase of $924. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in the Residential segment declined to 15.3% of segment revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is attributable to approximately $400 in employee incentives and approximately $200 in expenses to enter the solar installation market.

Our Commercial & Industrial segment experienced an increase of $1,313 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in the Commercial & Industrial segment increased to 9.5% of segment revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2012. The selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the

wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan were $316 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $1,429, during the three months ended March 31, 2011, net of a $2,850 settlement of an outstanding receivable, written off in a prior period. The selling, general and administrative expenses recorded for the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan are primarily due to professional fees and lease termination expenses. The Baltimore facility within the Commercial & Industrial segment had selling, general and administrative expenses of $291 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $177, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Baltimore location was selected for closure based upon current business performance and the extended time frame needed to return the operation to profitability. Excluding the selling general and administrative expenses associated with the wind-down facilities, selling general and administrative expenses decreased $1,360, primarily due to the consolidation of redundant support functions within the Louisiana and Virginia facilities.

Our Corporate segment experienced a decrease of $1,216 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease is primarily attributable to a significant reduction in our corporate office operations, including a decrease in headcount and related employment expenses, decreased professional fees and depreciation.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we incurred interest expense of $459 primarily comprised of the Tontine Term Loan and the Insurance Financing Agreements (as defined in “Working Capital”), an average letter of credit balance of $8,812 under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in “Working Capital”) and an average unused line of credit balance of $31,188. This compares to interest expense of $491 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, on a debt balance primarily comprised of the Tontine Term Loan, an average letter of credit balance of $13,087 under the Revolving Credit Facility and an average unused line of credit balance of $46,913.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we earned interest income of $8 and $24, respectively, on the average Cash and Cash Equivalents balances of $17,500 and $32,846, respectively.

Provision for Income Taxes

On May 12, 2006, we had a change in ownership as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 382. As such, our net operating loss utilization after the change date will be subject to Section 382 limitation for federal income taxes and some state income taxes. We have provided valuation allowance on all net operating losses where it is determined it is more likely than not that the net operating loss will expire without being utilized.

The provision for income taxes decreased from $929 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $82 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is attributable to a decrease in loss from operations before income taxes.

Consolidated revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2012 were $36 less than the six months ended March 31, 2011, an decrease of 0.0%.

Our Communications segment revenues increased $11,836 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, a 27.3% increase compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. We recognized revenues of $5,443 that can be attributed to commencing work on a significant project during the first quarter 2012. This is indicative of the expanding market for network infrastructure. The markets we serve have expanded rapidly as the current and expected demand for information and data storage has increased. We have a long history of serving our customers in such mission critical environments, resulting in our increased revenue as these markets continue to expand.

Our Residential segment revenues increased $6,546 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of 12.5% as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Approximately $8,271 of the revenue during the six months ended March 31, 2011 is attributable to the non-core electrical distribution facility that was sold in February 2011. Removing this revenue from the comparison, our Residential segment showed an increase period over period of $14,817. The increase is due primarily to an increase in our single-family revenues of approximately $7,000. While the strongest growth was seen in our Texas markets, which represents approximately 75% of our single-family sales, we experienced similar growth as a percentage increase in our other markets as well. Additionally, our Residential segment entered into the solar installation market in late 2011, concentrated primarily in California. Solar installation revenue was approximately $3,800. Multi-family revenues increased approximately $4,600, attributable to an influx of private financing options over HUD/FHA backed financing, and increased apartment occupancy rates, creating a demand for the construction of apartment units.

Revenues in our Commercial & Industrial segment decreased $18,418 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 13.9% as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to a decrease in revenues associated with the Company’s wind-down facilities described in the 2011 Restructuring Plan. Revenues associated with the wind-down facilities described in the 2011 Restructuring Plan totaled $6,218, a decrease of $19,393 when compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Excluding the revenues associated with the wind-down facilities, revenues increased $1,015. We are in the process of winding down our Baltimore facility, and as such have experienced a reduction in revenues of approximately $1,159. Revenues from the remaining Commercial & Industrial locations remained relatively flat.

Total Consolidated	$	23,495			10.3	%	$	16,385			7.2	%

Our consolidated gross profit percentage increased to 10.3% during the six months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to 7.2% during the six months ended March 31, 2012.

Our Communications segment gross profit increased $1,489 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in gross profit is attributed to more efficient execution on projects, an increase in higher margin service work and a reduction in overhead costs from the consolidation of administrative functions to one location.

Our Residential segment gross profit increased $1,047 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Gross margin percentage in the Residential segment increased to 15.6% during the six months ended March 31, 2012. Single family operations comprised the largest increase in gross profit at $2,300, attributed to the stability in the price of copper wire as well as an overall increase in revenue volume. The increase in gross profit from single family operations was offset by a negative gross margin of approximately $50 attributed to our entrance into the solar installation market. The remaining increase in gross profit resulted from decreased insurance claim development costs, offset by reduced margins in the multi-family operations due to increased competition and job specific difficulties encountered in the six months ended March 31, 2012.

Our Commercial & Industrial segment gross profit increased $4,504 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. The negative gross margins associated with the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan resulted in $1,928 of negative gross profit during the six months ended

March 31, 2012 compared to a negative gross profit of $1,311 during the during the six months ended March 31, 2011. The negative gross margins recorded for the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan are primarily due to higher costs associated with either subcontracting or assigning certain contracts to other electrical subcontractors together with the extensive operating difficulties relating to labor productivity following the notice of the potential sale or closure of these facilities. The Baltimore facility within Commercial & Industrial had a negative gross profit of $919 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, an increase in negative gross profit of $894, as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. The Baltimore location was selected for closure based upon current business performance and the extended time frame needed to return the operation to profitability. Excluding the gross profit associated with the wind-down facilities, gross profit increased $5,150. During the six months ended March 31, 2011, we experienced losses on contracts in Colorado and Nebraska facilities totaling approximately $4,100. These losses were not repeated during the six months ended March 31, 2012.

During the six months ended March 31, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expenses were $28,596, a decrease of $4,128, or 12.6%, as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Included in the six months ended March 31, 2011 is a recovery of $2,850 settlement of an outstanding receivable, written off in a prior period in our Commercial & Industrial segment. Excluding this, the selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $6,978.

Our Communications segment experienced an increase of $1,171 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the six months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in the Communications segment increased to 11.5% of segment revenue during the six months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to higher expenses associated with our expansion of facilities in Southern California, including litigation expenses. Additionally, bad debt expenses increased due primarily to the wind down operations of our Baltimore facility.

Our Residential segment experienced a decrease of $3,618 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the six months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in the Residential segment declined to 15.2% of segment revenue during the six months ended March 31, 2012. Approximately $1,993 of the selling, general and administrative expenses included in the six months ended March 31, 2011 is attributable to the non-core electrical distribution facility that was sold in February 2011. Removing this from the comparison, the actual change period over period was an increase of $1,625. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is attributable to approximately $900 in employee incentives, additional compensation expense of $200, and approximately $300 in expenses to enter the solar installation market.

Our Commercial & Industrial segment experienced an increase of $1,648 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the six months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in the Commercial & Industrial segment increased to 8.5% of segment

revenue during the six months ended March 31, 2011. The selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan were $502 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $3,059, during the six months ended March 31, 2011, net of a $2,850 settlement of an outstanding receivable, written off in a prior period. The selling, general and administrative expenses recorded for the wind-down operations described in the Company’s 2011 Restructuring Plan are primarily due to professional fees and lease termination expenses. The Baltimore facility within Commercial & Industrial had selling general and administrative expenses of $570 during the six months ended 2012, a decrease of $347, as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. The Baltimore location was selected for closure based upon current business performance and the extended time frame needed to return the operation to profitability. Excluding the selling general and administrative expenses associated with the wind-down facilities, selling general and administrative expenses increased $1,355, primarily due to increased incentive compensation.

Our Corporate segment experienced a decrease of $3,875 in selling, general and administrative expenses during the six months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in our corporate office operations, including a decrease in headcount and related employment expenses, and decreased depreciation. Additionally, there were several severance agreements in 2011 totaling $562 compared to $428 in 2012.

During the six months ended March 31, 2012, we incurred interest expense of $1,088 on an average debt balance of $10,000 primarily comprised of the Tontine Term Loan (as defined in “Working Capital”) and the Insurance Financing Agreements (as defined in “Working Capital”), an average letter of credit balance of $8,796 under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in “Working Capital”) and an average unused line of credit balance of $39,356. This compares to interest expense of $1,175 for the six months ended March 31, 2011, on an average debt balance of $10,000 primarily comprised of the Tontine Term Loan and the Insurance Financing Agreements, an average letter of credit balance of $14,508 under the Revolving Credit Facility and an average unused line of credit balance of $45,487.

For the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we earned interest income of $65 and $24 respectively, on the average Cash and Cash Equivalents balances of $19,590 and $32,384, respectively.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012 was $250.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $17,766, working capital of $56,649 and $22,009 of available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility. We anticipate that the combination of cash on hand, cash flows and available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility will provide sufficient cash to enable us to meet our working capital needs, debt service requirements and capital expenditures for property and equipment through the next twelve months. Our ability to generate cash flow is dependent on many factors, including demand for our services, the availability of projects at margins acceptable to us, the ultimate collectability of our receivables, and our ability to borrow on our amended Revolving Credit Facility, if needed. We were not required to test our covenants under our Revolving Credit Facility in the period as our Total Liquidity was greater than the minimum under our Revolving Credit Facility. Had we been required to test our covenants, we would have failed at March 31, 2012.

We continue to closely monitor the financial markets and general national and global economic conditions. To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to our invested cash or cash equivalents; however, we can provide no assurances that access to our invested cash and cash equivalents will not be impacted in the future by adverse conditions in the financial markets.

Operating Activities

Our cash flow from operations is not only influenced by cyclicality, demand for our services, operating margins and the type of services we provide, but can also be influenced by working capital needs such as the timing of our receivable collections. Working capital needs are generally lower during our fiscal first and second quarters due to the seasonality that we experience in many regions of the country.

Operating activities used net cash of $7,799 during the six months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to $11,444 of net cash used in the six months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in the use of cash from operating activities in the six months ended March 31, 2012 is due primarily to a decrease in the net loss of $7,276, a decrease in working capital usage of $2,691 and a decrease of depreciation expense of $2,360, offset by the $2,850 recovery and $6,811 gain on sale of assets in 2011.

Investing Activities

In the six months ended March 31, 2012, net cash used from investing activities was $978 as compared to $15,682 of net cash provided by investing activities in the six months ended March 31, 2011. Investing activities in the six months ended March 31, 2012 included $998 used for capital expenditures, and an $8,812 increase to restricted cash required by our credit facility. Investing activities in the six months ended March 31, 2011 included $16,287 from the sale of facilities, partially offset by $755 used for capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Financing activities used net cash of $9,034 in the six months ended March 31, 2012 compared to usage of $455 used in the six months ended March 31, 2011. Financing activities included $128 and $390 used for repayments of debt in the six months ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011, respectively.

Surety

Many customers, particularly in connection with new construction, require us to post performance and payment bonds issued by a surety. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that we will perform under the terms of our contract and that we will pay our subcontractors and vendors. If we fail to perform under the terms of our contract or to pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. We must reimburse the sureties for any expenses or outlays they incur on our behalf. To date, we have not been required to make any reimbursements to our sureties for bond-related costs.

As is common in the surety industry, sureties issue bonds on a project-by-project basis and can decline to issue bonds at any time. We believe that our relationships with our sureties will allow us to provide surety bonds as they are required. However, current market conditions, as well as changes in our sureties’ assessment of our operating and financial risk, could cause our sureties to decline to issue bonds for our work. If our sureties decline to issue bonds for our work, our alternatives would include posting other forms of collateral for project performance, such as letters of credit or cash, seeking bonding capacity from other sureties, or engaging in more projects that do not require surety bonds. In addition, if we are awarded a project for which a surety bond is required but we are unable to obtain a surety bond, the result could be a claim for damages by the customer for the costs of replacing us with another contractor.

As of March 31, 2012, the estimated cost to complete our bonded projects was approximately $75,430. We believe the bonding capacity presently provided by our sureties is adequate for our current operations and will be adequate for our operations for the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2012, we utilized $3,986 of cash (as is included in “Other Non-Current Assets” in our Consolidated Balance Sheet) as collateral for certain of our previous bonding programs.

Bonding Capacity

At March 31, 2012, we had adequate surety bonding capacity under our surety agreements. Our ability to access this bonding capacity is at the sole discretion of our sureties. As of March 31, 2012, the expected cumulative cost to complete for projects covered by our sureties was $75,430. We believe we have adequate remaining available bonding capacity to meet our current needs, subject to the sole discretion of our sureties. For additional information, please refer to Note 11 “Commitments and Contingencies – Surety” of this form 10-Q.

The Revolving Credit Facility

On May 12, 2006, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders. On May 7, 2008, we renegotiated the terms of our Revolving Credit Facility and entered into an amended agreement with the same financial institutions. On April 30, 2010, we renegotiated the terms of, and entered into an amendment to, the Loan and Security Agreement, pursuant to which the maturity date was extended to May 12, 2012. In connection with the amendment, we incurred an amendment fee of $0.2 million.

On December 15, 2011, we renegotiated the terms of, and entered into an amendment to, the Loan and Security Agreement without incurring termination charges. Under the terms of the amended Revolving Credit Facility, the size of the facility was reduced to $40,000 and the maturity date was extended to November 12, 2012. Further, we were required to cash collateralize all of our letters of credit issued by the banks. The cash collateral is added to the borrowing base calculation at 100% throughout the term of the agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility requires that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0 at any time that our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability is less than $25,0000and, thereafter, until such time as our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability has been at least $25,000 for a period of 60 consecutive days. Additionally, if there are any loans outstanding on or after the April 30, 2012, the Company’s EBITDA for the period from October 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012, may not exceed a negative EBITDA threshold of $2,500 and we will be required to have a cumulative fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0:1.0 at all times beginning April 1, 2012 to maintain any borrowings under the agreement. The measurement period for this additional test for borrowings begins with the monthly operating results for April 2012 and adds the monthly operating results for each month thereafter to determine the cumulative test during such time as revolving loans are outstanding. Failure to meet this performance test will result in an immediate event of default. The amended agreement also calls for cost of borrowings of 4.0% over LIBOR per annum. Cost for letters of credit are the same as borrowings and also include a 25 basis point “fronting fee.” All other terms and conditions remain unchanged. In connection with the amendment, we incurred an amendment fee of $0.1 million which, together with unamortized balance of the prior amendment is being amortized using the straight line method through November 12, 2012.

On May 11, 2012, we renegotiated the terms of, and entered into an amendment to, the Loan and Security Agreement without incurring termination charges. Under the terms of the amended Revolving Credit Facility, we are subject to covenant that requires we maintain a fixed coverage ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0 at any time that our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability is less than $30,000 and, thereafter, until such time as our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability has been at least $30,000 for a period of 60 consecutive days. Additionally, if there are any loans outstanding on or after March 31, 2012, April 30, 2012 and May 31, 2012, the Company’s EBITDA may not exceed a negative EBITDA threshold established for each month within this period. The negative EBITDA threshold is measured from October 1, 2011 until the months ended March 31, 2012, April 30, 2012 and May 31, 2012. The negative EBITDA threshold for March 31, 2012, April 30, 2012 and May 31, 2012 is $4,700, $4,850 and $4.725, respectively. To extent we

exceed the negative thresholds for March 31, 2012 April 30, 2012 and May 31, 2012 the Company will prohibited form borrowing until such time we do not exceed the negative threshold in a subsequent month. As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s negative EBITDA threshold for the period from October 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, may not exceed $4,475 and we will be required to have a cumulative fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0:1.0 at all times beginning July 31, 2012 to maintain any borrowings under the agreement. The measurement period for this additional test for borrowings begins with the monthly operating results for July l, 2012 and adds the monthly operating results for each month thereafter to determine the cumulative test during such time as revolving loans are outstanding. Failure to meet this performance test will result in an immediate event of default. The negative EBITDA threshold excludes any gain or loss related to a surety settlement described in Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may not exceed a “borrowing base” that is determined monthly by our lenders based on available collateral, primarily certain accounts receivables and cash collateral supporting our letters of credit. None of our inventories qualified for borrowing availability after we sold the inventory attributable to our Key Electrical Supply company in February 2011. Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility in effect as of March 31, 2012, interest for loans and letter of credit fees is based on our Total Liquidity, which is calculated for any given period as the sum of average daily availability for such period plus average daily unrestricted cash on hand for such period as follows:

At March 31, 2012, we had $22,009 available to us under the Revolving Credit Facility with no outstanding borrowings. We had $8,812 in outstanding letters of credit fully collateralized with restricted cash.

As of March 31, 2012, we were subject to the financial covenant under the Revolving Credit Facility requiring that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0 at any time that our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability is less than $25.0 million and, thereafter, until such time as our aggregate amount of unrestricted cash on hand plus availability has been at least $25.0 million for a period of 60 consecutive days. As of March 31, 2012, our Total Liquidity was in excess of $25.0 million; had our Total Liquidity been less than $25.0 million at March 31, 2012, we would not have met the required 1.0:1.0 fixed charge coverage ratio test.

The Tontine Term Loan

On December 12, 2007, we entered into a $25.0 million senior subordinated loan agreement (the “Tontine Term Loan”) with Tontine Capital Partners, L.P., a related party. The Tontine Term Loan bears interest at 11.0% per annum and is due on May 15, 2013. Interest is payable quarterly in cash or in-kind at our option. Any interest paid in-kind will bear interest at 11.0% in addition to the loan principal. On April 30, 2010, we prepaid $15.0 million of principal on the Tontine Term Loan. On May 1, 2010, Tontine assigned the Tontine Term Loan to TCP Overseas Master Fund II, L.P. We may repay the Tontine Term Loan at any time prior to the maturity date at par, plus accrued interest without penalty. The Tontine Term Loan is subordinated to our Revolving Credit Facility. The Tontine Term Loan is an unsecured obligation of the Company and its subsidiary borrowers. The Tontine Term Loan contains no financial covenants or restrictions on dividends or distributions to stockholders.

Controlling Shareholder

On October 3, 2011, the Company entered into an amended and restated letter agreement with James M. Lindstrom, to memorialize Mr. Lindstrom’s appointment, effective October 3, 2011, as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. Mr. Lindstrom previously served in such capacities on an interim basis since June 2011 and has served as Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors since February 2011. Mr. Lindstrom was an employee of Tontine from 2006 until October 2011. In his capacity as Chief Executive Officer and President, Mr. Lindstrom has the ability to affect the composition of the Company’s management and influence the business operations of the Company or extraordinary transactions outside the normal course of the Company’s business.

On July 21, 2011, Tontine filed an amended Schedule 13D indicating its ownership level of 57.4% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Although Tontine has not indicated any plans to alter its ownership level, should Tontine reconsider its investment plans and sell its controlling interest in the Company, a change in ownership would occur. A change in ownership, as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 382, could reduce the availability of net operating losses for federal and state income tax purposes. Furthermore, a change in control would trigger the change of control provisions in a

number of our material agreements, including our Revolving Credit Facility, bonding agreements with our sureties and employment contracts with certain officers and employees of the Company. On April 30, 2010, we prepaid $15,000 of the original $25,000 principal outstanding on the Tontine Term Loan; accordingly $10,000 remains outstanding under the Tontine Term Loan.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

As is common in our industry, we have entered into certain off-balance sheet arrangements that expose us to increased risk. Our significant off-balance sheet transactions include commitments associated with non-cancelable operating leases, letter of credit obligations, firm commitments for materials and surety guarantees.

We enter into non-cancelable operating leases for many of our vehicle and equipment needs. These leases allow us to retain our cash because we do not own the vehicles or equipment and we pay a monthly lease rental fee. At the end of the lease, we have no further obligation to the lessor. We may cancel or terminate a lease before the end of its term. Typically, we would be liable to the lessor for various lease cancellation or termination costs and the difference between the fair market value of the leased asset and the implied book value of the leased asset as calculated in accordance with the lease agreement.

Some of the underwriters of our casualty insurance program require us to post letters of credit as collateral, as is common in the insurance industry. To date, we have not had a situation where an underwriter has had reasonable cause to effect payment under a letter of credit. At March 31, 2012, $8,182 of our outstanding letters of credit were utilized to collateralize our insurance programs.

From time to time, we may enter into firm purchase commitments for materials such as copper wire and aluminum wire, among others, which we expect to use in the ordinary course of business. These commitments are typically for terms less than one year and require us to buy minimum quantities of materials at specified intervals at a fixed price over the term. As of March 31, 2012, we did not have any open purchase commitments.

Many of our customers require us to post performance and payment bonds issued by a surety. Those bonds guarantee the customer that we will perform under the terms of a contract and that we will pay subcontractors and vendors. In the event that we fail to perform under a contract or pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand the surety to pay or perform under our bond. Our relationship with our sureties is such that we will indemnify the sureties for any expenses they incur in connection with any of the bonds they issue on our behalf. To date, we have not incurred any costs to indemnify our sureties for expenses they incurred on our behalf.

As of March 31, 2012, our future contractual obligations due by September 30 of each of the following fiscal years include (in thousands) (1):


	Less than 1 Year		1 to 3 Years		3 to 5 Years		More than 5 Years		Total

Other commitments	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—

Total	$	5,216	$	3,596	$	—	$	—	$	8,812

Outlook

We anticipate that the combination of cash on hand, cash flows and available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility will provide sufficient cash to enable us to meet our working capital needs, debt service requirements and capital expenditures for property and equipment through the next twelve months. We expect that our capital expenditures will range from $1.5 to $2.0 million for the fiscal year ending on September 30, 2012. Our ability to generate cash flow is dependent on our successful finalization of our restructuring efforts and many other factors, including demand for our products and services, the availability of projects at margins acceptable to us, the ultimate collectability of our receivables and our ability to borrow on our amended Revolving Credit Facility. For additional information see “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Part I of this Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Management is actively involved in monitoring exposure to market risk and continues to develop and utilize appropriate risk management techniques. Our exposure to significant market risks includes fluctuations in commodity prices for copper, aluminum, steel and fuel. Commodity price risks may have an impact on our results of operations due to the fixed price nature of many of our contracts. We are also exposed to interest rate risk with respect to our outstanding debt obligations on the Revolving Credit Facility. For additional information see “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Part I of this Form 10-Q.

Commodity Risk

Our exposure to significant market risks includes fluctuations in commodity prices for copper, aluminum, steel and fuel. Commodity price risks may have an impact on our results of operations due to fixed nature of many of our contracts. During 2011 and 2010, commodity prices were volatile, and we experienced overall increases in prices of copper, aluminum, steel and fuel. Over the long-term, we expect to be able to pass along a portion of these costs to our customers, as market conditions in the construction industry will allow.

Interest Rate Risk

We are also exposed to interest rate risk, with respect to our outstanding revolving debt obligations as well as our letters of credit.

The following table presents principal or notional amounts and related interest rates by fiscal year of maturity for our debt obligations at March 31, 2012 (Dollar amounts in thousands):


	2012		2013		2014		2015		2016		Thereafter		Total
Debt Obligations - Fixed Rate:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures

In connection with the restatements discussed in the explanatory note and in Notes 17 and 18 of our financial statements in our Form 10-K/A, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we reevaluated our disclosure controls and procedures. We identified two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our inter-departmental communications processes at our Corporate office and within our Commercial & Industrial segment. Specifically, the Company’s policies, procedures and personnel resources responsible for both our vacation accrual and certain other expenses, including software amortization, were not effective. Solely as a result of these material weaknesses, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2011.

During the first and second quarters of our 2012 fiscal year, we improved our inter-departmental communications at our Corporate office and Commercial & Industrial segment. We additionally implemented staffing changes, which we believe remediated each material weakness. In connection with the filing of our Form 10-K/A under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as currently in effect, including the remedial actions discussed above, and we have concluded that, as of the March 30, 2012 filing of our December 31, 2011 Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As mentioned above, there were two material weaknesses that we identified. The first relates to a control deficiency at our corporate office that resulted in the inadequate reporting of certain software amortization expense. The corporate office failed to provide adequate managerial oversight, did not perform a timely review of the useful lives of its assets and did not engage in adequate inter-department communications between the IT and finance departments. The deficiency was identified by corporate management as of September 30, 2011, resulting in material revision of software amortization expense among

the quarterly periods of fiscal 2011. The second material weakness identified relates to a control deficiency at our Commercial & Industrial segment that resulted in the under accrual of vacation expense. The vacation accrual for salaried employees within this segment was understated due to inadequate inter-department communications between the human resources and finance departments. This deficiency impacted our vacation accrual balance for all annual and interim periods from September 30, 2008 through 2011. The deficiency was identified by corporate management during the close process within our first quarter of fiscal year 2012, resulting in the restatement of our September 30, 2011 Form 10-K.

Remediation of Material Weakness

Management believes it has remediated the material weakness related to the review of the useful lives of its assets. The remediation included enhanced inter-department communication, additional internal financial review and a specific review of all material software currently capitalized and amortized during the company’s financial close process.

Management believes it has remediated the material weakness related to the required vacation accrual. The remediation included updating the accrual process at the Commercial & Industrial segment to include the previously absent employees as of the first quarter in fiscal year 2012 and enhanced inter-departmental communication as well as the hiring of an additional resource in the finance department within our Commercial & Industrial segment.

As of the March 30, 2012 filing of the December 31, 2011 form 10-Q we believe the steps identified above have remediated the identified material weaknesses. Apart from the completion of this remediation process, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

For further information regarding legal proceedings, see Note 11, “Commitments and Contingencies — Legal Matters” to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our annual report on form 10-K /A for the year ended September 30, 2011.

Availability of net operating losses may be reduced by a change in ownership.

A change in ownership, as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 382, could reduce the availability of net operating losses for federal and state income tax purposes. Should Tontine be considered under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 to sell or exchange all or a portion of its position in IES, a change in ownership could occur. In addition, a change in ownership could occur resulting from the purchase of common stock by an existing or a new 5% shareholder as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Due to the complex factual determinations involved with the determination of a change in ownership under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, it is possible for such a change in ownership to occur without our knowledge. Currently, we have approximately $286.5 million of federal net operating losses that are available to use to offset taxable income, exclusive of net operating losses from the amortization of additional tax goodwill. In addition, we have approximately $12.6 million of net operating loss not currently available due to the limitation imposed by Internal Revenue Code Section 382, exclusive of net operating losses from the amortization of additional tax goodwill, and will be available to offset taxable income in future periods. Should a change in ownership occur, all net operating losses incurred prior to the change in ownership would be subject to limitation imposed by Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and this would substantially reduce the amount of net operating losses currently available to offset taxable income. In addition, the net operating losses for federal and state purposes have not been reviewed by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authorities. Should the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority successfully challenge the amount or the availability of net operating losses, the potential benefit of the net operating losses could be substantially reduced.

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized, who has signed this report on behalf of the registrant and as the principal financial officer of the registrant.

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC.

Sublease Agreement between Tontine Associates, LLC and IES Shared Services, Inc

Exhibit 10.1

SUBLEASE

This Sublease (“Sublease”), made as of the 29th day of March, 2012 by and between TONTINE ASSOCIATES LLC, a Delaware limited liability partnership, having an office at 55 Railroad Avenue, Greenwich, Connecticut (hereinafter referred to as “Sublessor”), and IES SHARED SERVICES, INC, a Delaware corporation, having an office at 4801 Woodway Drive, Suite 200-E, Houston, Texas (hereinafter referred to as “Sublessee”).

RECITALS

A. Pursuant to a certain Lease dated March 29th, 2012 (as such prime lease may be amended from time to time, the “Prime Lease”), by and between Sublessor, as lessee, SOUND SHORES PARTNER LLC, as Lessor (“Prime Lessor”), Sublessor leased from Prime Lessor certain premises commonly known as Suite 304, One Sound Shore Drive, Greenwich, Connecticut (the “Premises”) and located on the real property more particularly described in the Prime Lease (the “Property”).

B. Sublessor desires to sublet to Sublessee a portion of the Premises consisting of 1,740 sq. ft. as outlined on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof (the “Subleased Premises”), and Sublessee desires to sublet the Subleased Premises from Sublessor, all in accordance with the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth.

C. Sublessor and Sublessee shall share and have non-exclusive, common access to and use of, the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined), on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The “Common Areas” shall include, without limitation, the waiting area, hallways, kitchen, restrooms mail/copy room, conference rooms and six (6) parking spaces in the Property’s covered parking facilities, as the foregoing areas may be changed, reduced or expanded from time to time in Sublessor’s sole discretion (provided, however, that such change or reduction shall not unreasonable limit Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises), and including such other areas as Sublessor may designate as Common Areas from time to time.

AGREEMENT

IN CONSIDERATION of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, it is agreed by and between the parties as follows:

1. DEMISE, POSSESSION AND TERM. Sublessor hereby subleases to Sublessee, and Sublessee hereby subleases from Sublessor, the Subleased Premises for a term (the “Term”) commencing on April 1, 2012 or upon the Commencement Date as defined in the Prime Lease, whichever date is later (the “Sublease Commencement Date”) and ending on March 31, 2014 (the “Sublease Expiration Date”), unless extended or sooner terminated as provided herein. Sublessee shall be deemed to be in possession of the Subleased Premises as of the Sublease Commencement Date. Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that Sublessor has the option to renew the Prime Lease (“Renewal Option”) for one (1) two-year term (“Renewal Term”) to be exercised within 6 months prior to the termination of the Sublease Expiration Date (“Option Exercise Period”). Landlord agrees to notify Tenant in writing of its intention to exercise the Renewal Option at least 30 days prior to the Option Exercise Period. If Sublessee (i) gives written notice to Sublessor, within such 30 days period,

of its intention to renew this Sublease, which renewal shall be for the Renewal Term, or (ii) fails to reply to Sublessor within such 30 day period, and provided Sublessor does exercise the Renewal Option, the Term of this Sublease shall automatically be extended to expire on the same date as the Prime Lease. Notwithstanding such automatic extension, Sublessor may require Sublessee to, and Sublessee shall, enter into an amendment to this Sublease documenting the extension of the Term. Sublessor and Sublessee further agree that if the term of the Prime Lease terminates early or expires for any reason whatsoever, the Term of this Sublease shall automatically expire as of the date of such early termination or expiration of the Prime Lease.

2. RENT.

2.1. Base Rent. Commencing on April 1, 2012 and continuing thereafter on the first day of each and every calendar month during the term of this Sublease, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as base rent for the Subleased Premises, monthly rent (the “Base Rent”) for each calendar month or portion thereof during the Term of this Sublease as follows:


Dates:		Monthly Base Rent:
April 1, 2012 – March 31, 2013		$5,763.75
April 1, 2013 – March 31, 2014		$5,908.75

If Sublessor exercises the renewal option under the Prime Lease, and subject to the terms of Paragraph 1 above, the term of this Sublease shall automatically and without further action of the parties be deemed to be extended to be coterminous with the Prime Lease, and the Base Rent payable for this Sublease during the renewal term(s) shall be equal to the current Base Rent payable by Sublessee under the Sublease with $1.00 per rentable square foot annual increase for each of the following years over the previous year’s rent for the balance of the Option Term, as that term is defined in the Prime Lease.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and provided Sublessee is not in default under the Sublease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Sublessee shall receive a rental credit in the amount of $5,365.00, which Sublessee shall apply in one (1) installment towards the first (1^st) month rent following the Sublease Commencement Date.

2.2. Additional Rent. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as additional rent for the Subleased Premises (the following, collectively, “Additional Rent”), a sum equal to forty-seven percent (47%) of: (a) all amounts due as “Additional Charges” under the Prime Lease or any other fees and charges payable under the Prime Lease (whether payable to Prime Lessor or any other party) with respect to the term of the Prime Lease, including, without limitation, Tax Payments (as defined in the Prime Lease), Operating Expenses (as defined in the Prime Lease), and utilities (to the extend not already included in the Base Rent) (b) all amounts, fees or charges paid or incurred by Sublessor in connection with the performance of any obligations under the Prime Lease, including, without limitation, the maintenance, repair and replacement of all or any part of the Property as set forth in Section 14 of the Prime Lease, and (c) in addition to all costs incurred to comply with the Prime Lease, all amounts, fees or charges paid or incurred by Sublessor in connection with the operation, maintenance, repair, replacement and upkeep of the Common Areas, including, without limitation, all amounts paid or incurred for office supplies; maintenance, repair and replacement of photocopiers, scanners, fax machines; stocking and maintaining the kitchen; furniture repair or replacement; and any janitorial or custodial maintenance beyond what is required in the Prime Lease. During the Term, Additional Rent payable pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be paid in monthly installments in amounts determined by Sublessor and at such other intervals as are required under the Prime Lease, on or before the last business day of each calendar month during the Term, or within five (5) business days after receipt of a written request from Sublessor for payments that are not regularly scheduled monthly payments under the Prime Lease.

2.3. Security Deposit. Intentionally deleted.

2.4. General Provisions Regarding Payments. All Base Rent, Additional Rent (including, without limitation, late charges) and other fees, charges or amounts due from Sublessee under this Sublease (collectively, the “Rent”) shall be paid promptly when due, without notice or demand, and without offset or deduction for any reason whatsoever, to Sublessor at its address set forth in the notice provisions below, or to such other person or at such other address as Sublessor may designate by written notice to Sublessee. After an Event of Default described in Section 12.1(a) herein, interest at the Default Rate (as defined herein) shall be payable on any past due Rent from the date due through the date received by Sublessor (or its designated payee). Any such interest shall be paid by Sublessee promptly upon demand.

3. SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT.

3.1. Subject to Lease.

3.1.1 This Sublease is subject and subordinate in all respects to the Prime Lease, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no provision hereof granting Sublessee any power, right, benefit or privilege shall be operative or effective, if and to the extent that exercise or enjoyment of the same would constitute or result in any breach of or default under, or termination of, the Prime Lease.

3.1.2 In the event of any termination or expiration of the Prime Lease during the Term for any reason, this Sublease shall automatically terminate contemporaneously with termination or expiration of the Prime Lease, and Sublessor and Sublessee shall be relieved of all liability and obligation hereunder, except for liabilities and obligations (i) under the indemnification and default provisions (including, without limitation, Sections 12, 13.2, 14 and 15) hereof, (ii) accruing prior to such termination, or (iii) on account of acts, omissions, conditions or circumstances occurring or obtaining prior to such termination. The liabilities and obligations, identified in clauses (i) through (iii) above are referred to herein as “Surviving Obligations.”

3.1.3 Sublessee acknowledges receipt of a complete and accurate copy of the Prime Lease, and represents that it has read and understood the Prime Lease. In the event of any conflict between the terms and provisions of the Prime Lease and those of this Sublease, the terms and provisions of the Prime Lease shall control, in all events (except with respect to the amounts of Base Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder). Sublessee shall, at its own cost and expense, fully observe, perform and comply with all of the obligations of Sublessor, as lessee, under the Prime Lease, to the extent that such obligations relate to the Subleased Premises or the Common Areas, including, without limitation, obligations as provided in the Prime Lease with respect to use of the Subleased Premises and the Common Areas, maintenance and alterations of the Subleased Premises and assignment and subletting. Sublessee shall not cause, or permit its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, subtenants, licensees, concessionaires or assigns (whether or not permitted hereunder) to cause, whether by act or omission, any breach of, default under or termination of the Prime Lease.

3.1.4 As to all matters requiring the consent or approval of, or notice to, Prime Lessor under the Prime Lease, Sublessee shall not act without the prior written consent or approval of, or without notice to, as the case may be, both Prime Lessor and Sublessor. All matters required under the Prime Lease to be satisfactory to or as prescribed by Prime Lessor shall be satisfactory to or as prescribed by both Prime Lessor and Sublessor.

3.1.5 Sublessor reserves the right to assign all or any part of its interest in this Sublease in accordance with the terms of the Prime Lease.

3.2. Subordination to Mortgage. Sublessee’s interest under this Sublease is and shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to any mortgage, trust deed or other method of financing now or hereafter placed against the Property, the Subleased Premises or Sublessor’s leasehold estate therein by Sublessor or, if the Prime Lease so requires, by Prime Lessor. At Sublessor’s request from time to time, Sublessee shall promptly execute and deliver any document or instrument reasonably required by any such mortgagee or lienholder to further evidence or confirm such subordination.

3.3. Subordination to Easements, Covenants and Restrictions. Sublessee’s interest under this Sublease is and shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to any easements, operating agreement, declarations of covenants, conditions and restrictions or similar documents of record now or hereafter affecting the Property or the Subleased Premises.

3.4. Attornment. In the event of a sale or assignment of (i) the Property or a portion thereof which includes the Subleased Premises or (ii) Sublessor’s leasehold estate therein by Prime Lessor or Sublessor; or if the Property or said leasehold estate come into the possession of a mortgagee or other person, whether because of a mortgage foreclosure or otherwise, Sublessee shall (a) attorn to the purchaser, assignee, mortgagee or other person, (b) recognize the purchaser, assignee, mortgagee or other person as Prime Lessor or Sublessor, as the case may be, and (c) execute and deliver upon request any document or instrument reasonably requested to evidence further or confirm Sublessee’s attornment as set forth herein.

4. REPAIR AND CONFORMITY TO LAW. Sublessee is subleasing the Subleased Premises in “as is”, “with all faults” condition, without any representation or warranty of any kind from Sublessor, and acknowledges and agrees that Sublessor has no obligation to make any improvements, repairs, replacements or alterations in the Subleased Premises except that Sublessor shall cause all maintenance, repair and replacement obligations of the lessee under the Prime Lease to be performed, including as such obligations apply to the Subleased Premises and the Common Areas. Sublessee acknowledges that neither Sublessor nor any agent of Sublessor has made any representation as to the condition of the Subleased Premises or the suitability of the Subleased Premises for Sublessee’s intended use. Sublessee represents and warrants that it has made its own inspection of and inquiry regarding the condition of the Subleased Premises and is not relying on any representation of Sublessor with respect thereto except as may be expressly set forth herein. Sublessee, at its own expense, shall keep the interior of the Subleased Premises, in neat, clean, safe and sanitary condition, and shall maintain all parts of the Subleased Premises (and any portion of the Property damaged or destroyed by the act or omission of Sublessee, or its agents, contractors, employees, subtenants, licensees, invitees, concessionaires or assigns) in good repair and condition, except for ordinary wear and tear. Sublessee will keep, maintain and occupy the Subleased Premises in conformity with the terms and provisions of the Prime Lease and all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations (including, without limitation, those relating to building, zoning, health, fire, environmental protection and safety) of duly constituted authorities.

5. USE. Sublessee shall not allow the Subleased Premises or any Common Areas to be used for any purpose or in any manner that could increase the premium payable for any insurance thereon, nor for any purpose other than the use(s) permitted under the Prime Lease. Sublessee shall not, at any time, use or occupy, or suffer or permit anyone to use or occupy, the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or any portion of the Property, or permit anything to be done in the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or any portion of the Property, in any manner that does or may (a) violate any Certificate of Occupancy for the Subleased Premises or the Property; (b) cause, or be liable to cause, injury to the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or any portion of the Property, or any equipment, facilities or systems therein; (c) constitute a violation of the laws and requirements of any public authority or the requirements of insurance bodies; (d) impair or tend to impair the character, reputation, good will or appearance of the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or the Property; (e) impair or tend to impair the proper and economic maintenance, operation, and repair of the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or any other improvements, if any, situated on the Property or any equipment, facilities or systems therein; (f) violate any of the covenants and conditions or other provisions of the Prime Lease; (g) increase the fire hazard of the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or the Property or any other improvements, if any, situated on the Property; or (h) disturb or annoy the other occupants or customers of the Property.

5.1 General Use of Common Areas. Sublessee shall have the nonexclusive right to use the Common Areas for the purposes intended, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Sublessor may uniformly establish from time to time. Sublessee shall not interfere with the rights of any or all of Sublessor, other tenants or licensees, or any other person entitled to use the Common Areas. Sublessor, from time to time, may change any or all of the size, location, nature and use of any of the Common Areas although such changes may result in inconvenience to Sublessee, so long as such changes do not materially and adversely affect Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises. In addition to the foregoing, Sublessor may, at any time, close or suspend access to any Common Areas to perform any acts in the Common Areas as, in Sublessor’s reasonable judgment, are required in order to satisfy Sublessor’s obligations under either or both of this Sublease and the Prime Lease; provided, however, that Sublessor shall use reasonable efforts to limit any disruption of Sublesse’s use and operation of the Subleased Premises in connection therewith.

6. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

6.1. Prohibition. Sublessee shall not (by operation of law or otherwise) sell, assign, mortgage, encumber, pledge, sublease or in any manner transfer or otherwise dispose of this Sublease or any interest therein, or all or any part of the Subleased Premises nor grant licenses, occupancy rights therein, without Sublessor’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Sublessor’s sole and absolute discretion. For all purposes of this Sublease, any transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the capital or voting stock of Sublessee (or of the right to vote such stock), and any other change of control (e.g. transfer or assignment of partnership or membership interest in excess of 50%) of Sublessee, shall be deemed to constitute a disposition of this Sublease. Consent by Sublessor to any such sale, assignment, mortgage, encumbrance, pledge, sublease, transfer, disposition, license, occupancy or lease (any “Disposition”) on any one occasion shall not obviate the necessity for obtaining consent to any subsequent Disposition.

6.2. Continuing Liability of Sublessee. If any Disposition occurs (with or without Sublessor’s consent as herein required), Sublessor may collect rent and other amounts from any assignee, sublessee, licensee or other occupant and apply the same to the Rent reserved by this

Sublease, but no such Disposition or collection of Rent shall be deemed a consent to such Disposition, or a waiver of any of Sublessee’s obligations under this Sublease, or an acceptance of such assignee, sublessee, licensee or other occupant as “Sublessee,” or a release of Sublessee from the performance or payment by Sublessee of any of its covenants, agreements or liabilities contained in this Sublease. Notwithstanding any Disposition (with or without consent), Sublessee shall remain fully liable for the performance of all terms, covenants and provisions of this Sublease.

7. ALTERATIONS, ADDITIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS. Except as required by Section 4 hereof, no alterations, additions or improvements shall be made to any part of the Subleased Premises without the prior written consent of Sublessor, which consent may be granted or withheld in Sublessor’s sole and absolute discretion. All permitted alterations, additions or improvements to the Subleased Premises (“Sublessee’s Work”) shall be made in compliance with any applicable terms and provisions of the Prime Lease, all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and at the expiration or termination of the term of this Sublease for any reason, shall remain for the benefit of Sublessor or shall, at the request of Sublessor, be removed by Sublessee, at Sublessee’s sole cost, and Sublessee shall repair any damage caused by such removal. All permit, license and similar costs and fees (including, without limitation, costs of architectural renderings, sign elevation drawings, mechanical plans, and other plans and specifications) required by statute or ordinance and associated with Sublessee’s Work shall be paid by Sublessee.

8. WAIVER. Except for Sublessor’s gross negligence and intentionally wrongful conduct, Sublessor and its agents and employees shall not be liable for, and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Sublessee waives all claims against Sublessor for, damage or injury to persons, property or otherwise, including, without limitation, lost profits and consequential damages, sustained by Sublessee or any person claiming by, through or under Sublessee resulting from any accident or occurrence in or upon any portion of the Subleased Premises or the Property, including, without limitation, claims for damage resulting from: (a) any equipment or appurtenances becoming out of repair; (b) the failure to keep any part of the Property in repair; (c) injury done or caused by wind, water, or other natural element; (d) any defect in or failure of plumbing, heating or air conditioning equipment, electric wiring, gas or water pipes or equipment, steam pipes, stairs, porches, railings or walks or the installation or operation thereof; (e) broken glass; (f) the backing up of any sewer pipe or downspout; (g) the bursting, leaking or running of any tank, tub, washstand, water closet, waste pipe, drain or any other pipe or tank; (h) the escape of steam or hot water; (i) water, snow or ice upon (or coming through the roof of) the Subleased Premises or the Property; (j) the falling of any fixture, brick, roofing material, plaster or stucco; (k) damage to or loss by theft or otherwise of property of Sublessee or others; (l) acts or omissions of persons in the Subleased Premises or the Property, occupants of nearby properties, or any other person; (m) acts or omissions of owners of adjacent or contiguous property or of Sublessor, its agents, employees, guests and invitees; and (n) non-performance by Prime Lessor of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Prime Lease. All property of Sublessee kept in the Subleased Premises or in the Property shall be so kept at Sublessee’s sole risk and Sublessee shall and hereby does indemnify and hold Sublessor and Prime Lessor harmless from any and all claims arising out of damage to the same, including subrogation claims by Sublessee’s insurance carrier. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the termination or expiration of this Sublease.

9. CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION. If all or any part of the Subleased Premises are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, or taken by condemnation or acquired by sale in lieu thereof, Sublessee shall be bound by any determination called for by the Prime Lease as to untenantability, materiality of any damage or destruction, or similar matters, whether reached by agreement between

Prime Lessor and Sublessor or otherwise as provided in the Prime Lease. Without limitation of the foregoing, and for purposes of clarity, this Sublease shall not be terminated on the basis of a casualty or condemnation event or as a result of a sale in lieu thereof unless the Prime Lease is terminated on account thereof. Sublessee shall not be entitled to any portion of any condemnation award or sale proceeds, or to any proceeds of any policy of insurance maintained by Prime Lessor or Sublessor, and shall not assert any separate claim therefor in any proceeding.

10. ENTRY. Sublessor shall have the right to enter upon the Subleased Premises at all reasonable times (and, in the case of any emergency, at any time) to view the state and condition thereof, or to make or perform any maintenance, repairs or alterations which Sublessor may see fit to make or which may be required by the Prime Lease and/or this Sublease, or to exercise any right or remedy of Sublessor hereunder, provided that Sublessor shall use reasonable efforts not to interfere with Sublessee’s business operations.

11. SIGNS. All signage of Sublessee shall comply with the terms and provisions of the Prime Lease and no exterior signage or other signage visible from outside the Subleased Premises shall be erected or installed without the prior written consent of Sublessor, which consent may be granted or withheld in Sublessor’s sole and absolute discretion.

12. DEFAULT; REMEDIES.

12.1. Events of Default. It shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder if any or all of the following occur: (a) Sublessee fails to pay any Rent hereunder, and said failure continues for five (5) business days after the Sublessee receives a notice of default from Sublessor; (b) Sublessee makes any Disposition of any right to or interest in this Sublease or the Subleased Premises, except as expressly permitted by Section 6 hereof; (c) Sublessee fails in the performance of or compliance with any of the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions in this Sublease (other than those referred to in the foregoing subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Section) for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice from Sublessor to Sublessee specifying the items in default, or in the case of a default which cannot, with due diligence, be cured within said twenty (20) day period, Sublessee fails to proceed within said twenty (20) day period to cure the same and thereafter to prosecute the curing of such default with due diligence (it being intended in connection with a default not susceptible of being cured with due diligence within said twenty (20) day period that the time of Sublessee within which to cure the same shall be extended for up to an additional twenty (20) days if such additional 20-day period is necessary to complete the same with all due diligence); (d) there is instituted against Sublessee any proceeding in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization pursuant to any federal or state law now or hereafter enacted, which proceeding is not dismissed within thirty (30) days after the institution thereof, or any receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any portion of Sublessee’s business or property, or any execution or attachment is issued against Sublessee or any of Sublessee’s business or property or against the leasehold estate created hereby; or (e) Sublessee makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits its inability to pay its debts as they become due, or is found to be unable so to pay its debts by any court of competent jurisdiction, or files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or insolvency, or petitions for (or enters into) an arrangement for reorganization, composition or any other arrangement with Sublessee’s creditors under any federal or state law now or hereafter enacted.

12.2. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Sublessor shall have the immediate right, at its option, to pursue any one or more of the following remedies: (a) terminate this Sublease; (b) reenter and take possession of the Subleased Premises, and evict Sublessee and remove its property therefrom; (c) relet the Subleased Premises, and collect and retain all rents, charges, fees and other costs payable pursuant to such reletting; (d) any other remedy available to Prime Lessor under the Prime Lease in the event of a breach thereof or default thereunder by Sublessor; and (e) any other remedy available at law or in equity.

12.3. Damages. In the event Sublessor exercises its remedies under Section 12.2(a), (b) or (c) hereof, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as part of Sublessor’s damages: (i) if Sublessor fails to relet the Subleased Premises, upon demand, an amount equal to the sum of all Rent provided for herein to be paid by Sublessee for the Term of the Sublease remaining from and after the Event of Default and (ii) if Sublessor relets the Subleased Premises, from time to time upon demand, the amount by which all Rent due from the date Sublessor terminates this Sublease exceed the rents, charges, fees and costs paid by a new tenant pursuant to the terms of such reletting, after deducting therefrom all reasonable costs of decoration, repairs, remodeling, alterations, advertising, brokers’ commissions and other items in connection with such reletting. Without limiting the generality of Section 14 hereof, all expenses and costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ reasonable fees and costs) incurred by Sublessor in exercising any remedy provided for in this Section 12 shall be covered by the indemnification set forth in Section 14 hereof, and Sublessee shall pay and/or reimburse Sublessor therefor, promptly upon demand, together with interest on any amounts paid by Sublessor at a per annum rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to the “prime” or “reference” rate of interest publicly announced as such, from time to time, by JP Morgan Chase NA, plus two percent (2.0%) per annum.

12.4. Right to Cure. If (a) an Event of Default occurs, or (b) any breach hereof or default hereunder by Sublessee continues after the applicable notice and cure periods, or (c) any other event or state of affairs in or about the Subleased Premises or the Property constitutes a breach of or default under the Prime Lease which continues after the applicable notice and cure periods, or, in Sublessor’s reasonable determination, poses a significant risk of injury or damage to any person or property, or, in Sublessor’s reasonable determination, creates an unsightly condition, then Sublessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, at Sublessee’s sole cost and expense, to cure the same, and Sublessee shall pay and/or reimburse Sublessor for any expenses incurred by Sublessor in connection with such cure promptly upon demand therefor, together with interest on any amounts paid by Sublessor at the Default Rate from the date paid through the date reimbursed (inclusive of interest).

13. INSURANCE.

13.1. Types of Coverage. Sublessee shall, at all times during the Term, carry commercial general liability, commercial property and any other types of insurance as required of Sublessor, as tenant, under the Prime Lease. Sublessor, Prime Lessor and any mortgagee of the Property or of Sublessor’s leasehold estate under the Prime Lease shall each be named as an additional insured on all such policies, which policies shall be written on an occurrence basis, be primary and not contributing with any coverage carried by Sublessor or Prime Lessor and which shall include contractual liability coverage. Each such policy of insurance shall provide that it will not be subject to cancellation or modification except after at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Sublessor and the other additionally insured parties, and shall contain the insurer’s waiver of subrogation rights. Sublessee shall furnish Sublessor with a certificate of each such policy of insurance (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both Prime Lessor and Sublessor) or, at Sublessor’s request, with the original of each such policy, together with evidence satisfactory to Sublessor of payment of premiums therefor. Sublessor or its designee shall have the exclusive right to adjust any loss covered by any such policy of insurance to the extent it relates to the Subleased Premises.

13.2. Waiver of Subrogation. Sublessor and Sublessee and all parties claiming under them mutually release and discharge each other from all claims and liabilities arising from or relating to any casualty, hazard or other occurrence to, at or in connection with the Subleased Premises or the Property to the extent covered by insurance, and hereby waive any right of subrogation which might otherwise exist on account thereof; provided, however, that such waiver and release shall not operate in any case where the effect would be to invalidate such insurance coverage.

14. INDEMNIFICATION.

14.1. Except for Sublessor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Sublessee shall and hereby does protect, indemnify, defend and hold any and all of the Sublessor, the Prime Lessor and the respective members, partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of both the Sublessor and the Prime Lessor from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, suits, causes of action, settlements, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ reasonable fees and costs) arising from, in connection with, or relating to: (a) any injury to, or death of, any person, or damage to, or destruction of, any property, on or about the Subleased Premises or the Property (including, without limitation, the Common Areas) caused by any or all of Sublessee or its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, subtenants, licensees, concessionaires or assigns; (b) any negligent act or omission of (including, without limitation, any breach of, or default under, this Sublease or the Prime Lease by) any or all of Sublessee or its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, subtenants, licensees, concessionaires or assigns; or (c) this Sublease or Sublessee’s use and occupancy of the Subleased Premises and the Property (including, without limitation, the Common Areas).

14.2. Except for Sublessee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Sublessor shall and hereby does protect, indemnify, defend and hold any and all of the Sublessee, and the respective members, partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of the Sublessee from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, suits, causes of action, settlements, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ reasonable fees and costs) arising from, in connection with, or relating to: (a) any injury to, or death of, any person, or damage to, or destruction of, any property, on or about the Subleased Premises caused by any or all of Sublessor or its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, subtenants, licensees, concessionaires or assigns; or (b) any negligent act or omission of any or all of Sublessor or its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, subtenants, licensees, concessionaires or assigns.

15. LIENS. Sublessee agrees: (a) to pay promptly, when due, the entire costs of Sublessee’s Work or any other work performed by Sublessee; (b) to obtain from each contractor with whom Sublessee contracts for such work, prior to paying any amount to such contractor, a statement in writing under oath, or verified by affidavit, of the names of all parties furnishing materials and labor for such work and the amounts due, or to become due, to each and, at the time of payment, obtain from each contractor and from each such person or entity a waiver of lien in the amount paid to each; (c) to keep the Subleased Premises and the Property at all times free of liens and claims for liens for labor and materials for work undertaken by or on behalf of Sublessee; (d) to furnish Sublessor copies of all such contracts entered into by Sublessee and of such sworn statements and waivers of lien; (e) at Sublessor’s written request, to only use union contractors previously and reasonably approved in writing by Sublessor; (f) to perform such work in such manner as to insure proper maintenance of good labor relationships; and (g) to defend, indemnify, save and keep both Sublessor and Prime Lessor harmless from and against all liability, losses, damages, injury, claims, suits, actions, judgments and costs to any person or property occasioned by or growing out of such work. If any claim for a mechanics lien arises against any part of the Subleased Premises or the Property by reason of work

undertaken by Sublessee, and such claim is not discharged as required by the Prime Lease, Sublessor may pay such claim and proceed to obtain the discharge and release thereof, and Sublessee shall pay Sublessor as Additional Rent (with interest thereon at the Default Rate) the amount paid by Sublessor to obtain the discharge and release thereof, together with court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, upon demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Sublessee may contest the validity of any charge or lien in good faith by appropriate proceeding, provided that (a) such contest could not result in any sale or forfeiture of the Property or any part thereof or interest therein, and (b) Sublessee shall furnish Sublessor with such security as Sublessor may reasonably request to ensure the ultimate payment, removal or discharge of such charge or lien.

Covenants and Agreements.

16.2.1 Throughout the Term, Sublessee shall, at Sublessee’s expense, comply with all Relevant Laws.
