Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on August 7, 2019, as amended to date (the “Statement”), relating to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Nesco Holdings, Inc. (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Statement.

Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

Voting and Support Agreement

On December 3, 2020, the Issuer entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with PE One Source Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of Platinum Equity (“Platinum”), relating to the issuance and sale (the “Subscription”) to Platinum of Common Stock of the Issuer in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Issuer, Nesco Holdings II, Inc., a subsidiary of the Issuer (“Buyer”), certain affiliates of The Blackstone Group and other direct and indirect equity holders (collectively, “Sellers”) of Custom Truck One Source, L.P. (“CTOS”), Blackstone Capital Partners VI-NQ L.P. and, solely with respect to Section 9.04 of the Purchase Agreement, Platinum, pursuant to which Buyer has agreed to acquire 100% of the partnership interests of CTOS (collectively, the “Transactions”).

Concurrently with and as a condition to Platinum entering into the Investment Agreement, certain of the Reporting Persons and certain other stockholders of the Issuer (collectively, the “Supporting Stockholders”), entered into a Voting and Support Agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) with Platinum, which provides (i) that the Supporting Stockholders will vote all shares of capital stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by such Supporting Stockholder in favor of the Transactions and against any alternative proposal, (ii) that each Supporting Stockholder will not transfer any shares owned or grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any shares in contravention of the obligations under the Voting Agreement, and (iii) that each Supporting Stockholder grants an irrevocable proxy in favor of Platinum to vote all shares of capital stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by such Supporting Stockholder in favor of the Transactions. In the event of a Change of Recommendation (as defined in the Investment Agreement), the number of shares which the Supporting Stockholders shall be required to vote in favor of the Transactions pursuant to the Voting Agreement shall be reduced pro rata amongst the Supporting Stockholders, such that the aggregate number of shares required to vote in favor of the Transactions is equal to 39.0% of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

In addition, the Voting Agreement provides that each Supporting Stockholder will pay to each of Platinum and Sellers 10% (or 20% in the aggregate) of such Supporting Stockholder’s Profit (as described below) in the event (i) the Investment Agreement is terminated in circumstances under which the Issuer is or may become obligated to pay each of Platinum and

Sellers a termination fee under the Investment Agreement and (ii) a definitive agreement is subsequently entered into with respect to a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Investment Agreement) within nine months of such termination of the Investment Agreement and such Superior Proposal is subsequently consummated. The “Profit” is defined as the excess (if any) of the value of the consideration received in such Superior Proposal (as determined in the Investment Agreement) over the value of the current transaction (measured as the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the 10 trading days following announcement of the current transaction).

The Voting Agreement further provides that during the period beginning upon the execution of the Voting Agreement and terminating on June 30, 2021 (the “Standstill Period”), the Supporting Stockholders shall not (i) solicit, initiate or take any action to knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage any inquiries or the making of any proposal from a person or group of persons that may constitute an alternative transaction involving both the Issuer and CTOS, (ii) enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any person or group of persons regarding an alternative transaction involving both the Issuer and CTOS, (iii) provide any non-public information relating to CTOS or afford access to the assets, business, properties, books or records of CTOS to any person, for the purpose of such person using such information to evaluate a proposal for an alternative transaction involving both the Issuer and CTOS, or (iv) enter into or approve an alternative transaction involving the Issuer and CTOS or any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect thereto. Except with respect to the obligation to pay a percentage of the Profits to each of Platinum and Sellers, the Voting Agreement terminates on the earlier of the mutual agreement of the parties, the closing of the Subscription and the closing of the Transactions and the date that the Investment Agreement has been terminated.

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement filed as an exhibit to this Statement and incorporation herein by reference.

Item 6 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

Item 4 above summarizes certain provisions of the Voting Agreement and is incorporated herein by reference. The Voting Agreement is attached as an exhibit to this Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.

Except as set forth herein, none of the Reporting Persons or Related Persons has any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships concerning the transfer or voting of such securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
