ESOP Education Series BACK TO MAIN It's ESOP Statement Time! Great news! 🎉 The first ESOP statements have been MAILED to your home addresses on file today! Delivery times may vary, but you should expect your letter within the next 2-3 days. If you haven't yet qualified to participate in the ESOP, you won't receive a statement this time. We’re thrilled to announce that the per-share value of our ESOP has increased by an impressive 84% since the 2022 valuation! This remarkable growth is a direct result of the hard work and dedication you all demonstrated throughout the 2023 season. The ESOP is valued year over year, and while there will be fluctuations, our goal is to maintain a positive trajectory for the long-term benefit of everyone at MCI. Your efforts have truly made a difference! Let’s review some details so that you understand what you are looking at in your statements. FYI: New Employees to MCI as of 2023- You will not receive a login until the statement next year when you are eligible to participate in the ESOP. ​ Set your expectations Don’t get dollar signs in your eyes! We’ve said it before, and we will say it again; this is not a get-rich-quick scheme. Our stock valuation can fluctuate, and it will be generally low for the first few years. ​​ WHY will the value be low? To become an employee-owned company, the company had to first be sold to the ESOP Trust by the original private owners of the company. The sale will be paid to the owners over time, and that money comes from the annual contributions to the ESOP Trust until that debt is paid off. Think of it like buying a house; you take a loan out to BUY your house from the bank. The bank holds the deed to your house, and you pay off the loan monthly over the length of your designated mortgage terms (typically 30 years for a mortgage, but don’t worry the private loan to the sellers isn’t even close to that amount of time). Once you pay off the loan, the bank gives you the deed, and your house is officially yours at its full market value. In our ESOP—there is no bank. The private sellers have individual private loans based on a fair market sale, and they are assuming all the associated risks. We pay off the loans, (and the company remains profitable), our equity in the company goes up, and our share value will reflect that. What will the Statement look like? This statement is going to be personalized for YOU; your vesting percentage, your number of shares, and the value of that they are worth for year ending 2023. ​ Your information - Near the top, you’ll see your personal information, including your years of vested service, your participation status, and the date your participation started. Last year’s balance - What is in your account as of the end of the last plan year. Forfeitures - There is a new line item on your statement for the 2023 year called “Forfeitures.” These are any shares that were given up, or “unvested” by employees who left the ESOP in 2023. The shares that they left behind go back into the trust and are reallocated to all current participants. Total account balance - This represents the total number of shares associated with your account. Current market value - The per-share value of the company stock as of the end of the plan year, as determined by an independent appraiser (valuation firm). Total account value - What your account is worth at the end of the plan year. Vested percentage - This is the vesting percentage that you have earned based on your years of service and the vesting schedule as defined by the plan. Vested account value - This is the current vested value of your account, based on your vested percentage. This is the amount that will be paid upon a distribution event. A huge thank you to all of those who have been integral in navigating the preparation of these documents. ​ Please make sure you have set up your online account with Principal , and we encourage you to reach out to your representative from the Communications Committee with any questions that you may have.

Acerca de BACK TO MAIN Work, Meet Life. The most important part of who we are is outside of working hours. Let's recognize that too. Though you might spend a large portion of your time on the clock for your work team, you lead a whole life out there that doesn't include MCI or Gamut. So let's celebrate the good news, exciting updates, welcome new babies, see your pets, watch your kid make that soccer goal, and even share in the tough stuff that could use a little support. We could all use a moment to smile, celebrate, and just be human. Here's the space to do it! Let's go Gamut Marathoner, Katrina Ramey! Congratulations are in order for Katrina Ramey, who has impressively completed the Chicago Marathon! Her dedication and hard work paid off with an outstanding finish time of 04:15:19. This achievement is not only a testament to her physical endurance but also her unwavering determination and commitment to excellence. Katrina's accomplishment is an inspiration to us all, showcasing the remarkable results of perseverance and discipline. We are incredibly proud of her and look forward to celebrating more of her achievements in the future. Well done, Katrina! 🎉🏃‍♀️ Congrats, Bobby! Congratulations to Bobby Gudger for securing first place in the kayak category at the Crafting for Kids Canoe, Kayak, SUP race held on October 7, 2023. Bobby's dedication to his own health and fitness journey not only brought him this well-deserved accolade but also shone a spotlight on two remarkable charities. ​ The Masonic Home for Children at Oxford: This year marks the 150th anniversary of the Masonic Home for Children in Oxford, NC. A beacon of hope and support, the home has sheltered over 11,000 children throughout its history. Currently, it serves as a nurturing abode for approximately 80 children. Beyond providing a roof over their heads, the organization has extended its support to over 27,000 children this year alone, offering various forms of aid and care. Gold Star Family/Mothers Recognition: October holds special significance as it's Gold Star Family/Mothers month, a decade-long tradition honoring the resilience of families who have lost a parent in military or law enforcement service. This program plays a crucial role in supporting teens during some of their most challenging times, acknowledging the sacrifices made by their loved ones in service to our country. Kitty looking for a home! The Rukse family is at it again, extending a helping hand, one cat at a time! We'd like to introduce you to Jule, a charming young ginger kitty who appeared in late October. He wasn't microchipped and, unfortunately, no one seems to be searching for him. He may have been lost or left behind, but we've made sure to provide him with food and shelter in the meantime. Jule has shown interest in becoming an indoor cat, but our household has reached its limit for permanent furry residents. However, we're collaborating with a local rescue to offer him temporary indoor fostering until a forever home is found. For anyone interested in adopting this delightful and handsome guy, please reach out to us (crukse@mcihvac.com ). He was recently taken to the vet, where he was neutered and had his vaccinations updated. He tested negative for common feline diseases and is currently being socialized with other cats. We haven't observed his interactions with children, so a home without young kids would probably be preferable for him.

ESOP Education Series BACK TO MAIN NCEO Study Finds Employee Ownership Provides Significant Advantages in Uncertain Economy A new survey by the National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO) finds that workers who own their companies through employee stock ownership plans (ESOPS) have significantly greater retirement security than most American workers. At a time when many businesses are experiencing high turnover rates and staffing shortages, employee-owned S corporations also report better employee retention through a corporate culture that fosters worker satisfaction, the survey reveals. ​ “The evidence continues to show that employee-owned businesses and their employees are faring better than most, positioning them to better withstand the challenges of a volatile economy,” said Stephanie Silverman, President and CEO of the Employee-Owned S Corporations of America (ESCA), which commissioned the survey. “As business leaders prepare for possible economic uncertainty ahead, ESOP-owned private firms offer a compelling model for positioning workers and companies alike.” ​ Key findings of the survey include: S-ESOP leaders report voluntary quit rates of their employees at roughly one-third of the national average. Nearly 80 percent of S ESOP leaders feel they are able to do better than their non-ESOP competitors when it comes to retaining and recruiting employees. Employee-owners are experiencing layoffs at nearly one-fourth of the national average. Nearly 80 percent of S ESOP leaders believe employee-ownership helps them manage economic disruptions. Employee-owners are staying put because of the benefits. ESOP respondents estimate that the median ESOP account balance across their participants is $80,500, not accounting for other retirement savings vehicles they provide like a 401(k).

MCI has achieved Platinum in Associated Builders and Contractor’s STEP Safety Management System . Founded more than three decades ago, STEP has evolved into a world-class safety program that dramatically improves safety performance among construction industry participants, with top-performing Diamond members achieving incident rates 645% safer than the industry average . ​ STEP participants measure their safety processes and policies on key components through a detailed questionnaire with the goal of implementing or enhancing safety programs that reduce jobsite incidents. “Safety is a journey, and that journey is possible because of systems like STEP, which enables ABC member contractors like MCI to have safer and more productive jobsites,” said Greg Sizemore, ABC vice president of health, safety, environment and workforce development. “Committing to total human health is essential to ensure the physical and mental health and safety of our workforce, and I commend MCI for consistently fulfilling those commitments to raise the bar of safety performance.” ​ According to ABC’s annual Safety Performance Report , STEP participants, regardless of company size or type of work, can reduce recordable incidents up to 84%, making the best performing companies more than eight times safer than the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average. Ratings range from Diamond, the highest, to Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze and Participant. ​ To learn more about the STEP program, visit abc.org/step . MCI Construction Team is CPR/AED Certified Recently, our organization took a proactive step towards employee safety and well-being by conducting multiple First Aid, CPR, and AED (Automated External Defibrillator) classes. These sessions were designed to equip our employees with essential life-saving skills, and we are proud to report that 65 of our dedicated MCI employees participated in and successfully completed these crucial training sessions. ​ The training covered a wide range of fundamental first aid principles, ensuring that participants gained a comprehensive understanding of how to respond effectively to various medical emergencies. They learned essential techniques, from treating burns and controlling bleeding to dressing wounds and splinting injuries. These skills are invaluable in everyday life and can make a significant difference in emergency situations, both inside and outside the workplace. ​ One of the key aspects of the training was the instruction on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Participants were taught how to perform CPR correctly and the vital importance of early intervention in cases of cardiac arrest. Additionally, they learned how to operate an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), a device that can be a critical tool in saving someone's life during a cardiac emergency. ​ Having a team of employees well-versed in First Aid, CPR, and AED usage is a significant asset to any organization. It not only enhances workplace safety but also demonstrates a commitment to the health and well-being of both employees and the community at large. ​ For those who were unable to participate in these recent classes, there's no need to worry. We understand the importance of these skills and are dedicated to ensuring that all employees have the opportunity to learn them. More training sessions will be scheduled in the near future, providing additional chances for our team members to acquire these life-saving skills.

Acerca de BACK TO MAIN Work, Meet Life. The most important part of who we are is outside of working hours. Let's recognize that too. Celebrating New Beginnings in Our Gamut Family! We have some heartwarming news to share in our latest family update! ​ First off, Joey Aldrich, a dedicated member of our Gamut customer support team, welcomed his baby girl, Aurora, into the world on February 1, 2024. We're all smiles over the adorable picture below featuring Aurora and her big sister. (Left) ​ In another happy announcement, Lisa Simmons, also from our customer support team, embraced a new title as a grandmother on the rare and special day of February 29, 2024. Her granddaughter, Amelia, has made this Leap Year extra memorable. Check out this heartwarming picture of Lisa with her little "Leap Ling." (Right) ​ Please join us in congratulating both Joey and Lisa on these wonderful family milestones! Lacey Knapp and Finley Lacey Knapp and Finley 1/6 This Month's Paw-some News from the Editor's Desk! In a desperate bid to fill the page (and, let's be honest, to show off), I've commandeered this space to introduce the latest, furriest member of the Knapp household - meet Finley! Our "Gotcha Day" celebration was on February 7th, marking the day this adorable mix of Coonhound, Boxer, and Pitbull made our home her forever home. At 9 months old, Finley is a blend of hound intelligence, Boxer enthusiasm, and Pitbull love, making every day an adventure filled with energy, smarts, and cuddles. ​ Finley's journey to us was made possible by the amazing folks at Saving Grace Animal Rescue in Wake Forest, NC. If you're in the vicinity and thinking of expanding your family with a four-legged friend, I couldn't recommend them more highly. The Shih-Poo Coup: How Sammy Stole the Show (and Dane's Heart) at MCI In a daring attempt to one-up the editorial desk's recent puppy news, the Osburn clan has made a bold move by introducing their own bundle of joy (and inevitable chaos). Enter Sammy, the pint-sized Shih Tzu-Poodle mix, or as those in the know call him, a "Shih-Poo." This little furball, pictured on the right alongside his sister, recently graced the Raleigh office with his presence, and let's just say, he was quite the hit—especially with PM Stephen Sellers, who might just have found a new best friend. (I sense a new series... Puppies and Project Managers? Who's in??) ​ At just 8 weeks old, Sammy has already shown signs of becoming the office's most adorable troublemaker. While Dane Osburn might put on the façade of a man coerced into dog-dad duties, it's clear for all to see that Sammy has firmly wrapped his tiny paws around Dane's heart. ​ So, as the newsletter becomes an unofficial pet showcase, let's give a warm welcome to Sammy. Dane, you can pretend all you want, but we're onto you—you've totally fallen for the puppy eyes. Here's to Sammy's future adventures and the inevitable "who's rescued who" story unfolding at the Osburn residence!
