Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not Applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not Applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

As a corporation incorporated in the State of Florida, the Registrant is subject to the Florida Business Corporation Act, or the Florida Act. Section 607.0831 of the Florida Act provides that a director is not personally liable for monetary damages to the corporation or any other person for any statement, vote, decision or failure to act unless (1) the director breached or failed to perform his or her duties as a director and (2) the director’s breach of, or failure to perform, those duties constitutes (a) a violation of the criminal law, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, (b) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, either directly or indirectly, (c) a circumstance under which the liability provisions of Section 607.0834 are applicable, (d) in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor or by or in the right of a shareholder, conscious disregard for the best interest of the corporation, or willful or intentional misconduct, or (e) in a proceeding by or in the right of someone other than the corporation or a shareholder, recklessness or an act or omission which was committed in bad faith or with malicious purpose or in a manner exhibiting wanton and willful disregard of human rights, safety, or property. A judgment or other final adjudication against a director in any criminal proceeding for a violation of the criminal law estops that director from contesting the fact that his or her breach, or failure to perform, constitutes a violation of the criminal law; but does not estop the director from establishing that he or she had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

 

II-1


Under Section 607.0851 of the Florida Act, a corporation may indemnify an individual who is, was or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding because the individual is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the corporation’s request as a director or officer, manager, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another domestic or foreign corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or another enterprise or entity against liability incurred in the proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, has reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

Under Section 607.0851 of the Florida Act, a corporation may indemnify an individual who is, was or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding because the individual is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the corporation’s request as a director or officer, manager, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another domestic or foreign corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or another enterprise or entity against liability incurred in the proceeding, against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal thereof. Such indemnification shall be authorized if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. In addition, upon application, a court of competent jurisdiction may order the corporation to indemnify or advance expenses notwithstanding that the director or officer did not meet certain standards of conduct or furnish certain undertakings if such court determines that indemnification is fair and reasonable, but if the director or officer is adjudged liable, then such indemnification is limited to expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding.

Under Section 607.0852 of the Florida Act, the corporation must indemnify an individual who is or was a director or officer who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which the individual was a party because he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation against expenses incurred by the individual in connection with the proceeding.

Under Section 607.0858(1) of the Florida Act, the indemnification provided pursuant to Sections 607.0851 and 607.0852 and the advancement of expenses provided pursuant to Section 607.0853 are not exclusive, and a corporation may, by a provision in its articles of incorporation, bylaws or any agreement, or by vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, obligate itself in advance of the act or omission giving rise to a proceeding to provide any other or further indemnification or advancement of expenses to any of its directors or officers. However, indemnification or advancement of expenses shall not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a judgment or other final adjudication establishes that his or her actions, or omissions to act, were material to the cause of action so adjudicated and constitute: (a) a violation of the criminal law, unless the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; (b) a transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; (c) in the case of a director, a circumstance under which the above liability provisions of Section 607.0834 are applicable; or (d) willful or intentional misconduct or a conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor or in a proceeding by or in the right of a shareholder.

Section 607.0857 provides that a corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of and for the benefit of an individual who is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or who, while a director or officer of the corporation, is or was serving at the corporation’s request as a director, officer, manager, member, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another domestic or foreign corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise or entity, against liability asserted against or incurred by the individual in that capacity or arising from his or her status as a director or officer, whether or not the corporation would have power to indemnify or advance expenses to the individual against the same liability under Chapter 607.

 

II-2


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Section 607.0858(6) provides that a corporation’s power to indemnify, advance expenses to or provide or maintain insurance on behalf of or for the benefit of an individual who is or was an employee or agent is not limited by Sections 607.0850 through 607.0859.

The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that it shall indemnify any director or former director to the fullest extent permitted by law. Its Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that a director or officer may be paid expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon our receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such director or officer is not entitled to indemnification. The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws also permit it to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of its directors, officers, employees and agents and directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, serving as such at its request, against liabilities that they may incur in those capacities, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify them against such liabilities.

The Registrant has obtained primary and excess insurance policies insuring our directors and officers and our subsidiaries against certain liabilities they may incur in their capacity as directors and officers. Under such policies, the insurer, on the Registrant’s behalf, may also pay amounts for which it has granted indemnification to the directors or officers. In addition, the Registrant has individual indemnification agreements with its directors.

It is the position of the Commission that indemnification of directors and officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy and is unenforceable pursuant to Section 14 of the Securities Act.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” or “Calculation of Registration Fee” table, as applicable, in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

Provided however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8 for the MasTec, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan

Ladies and Gentlemen,

On or about the date hereof, MasTec, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), transmitted for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Registration Statement relates to the registration by the Company of 500,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.10 per share (“Common Stock”), to be issued in connection with The MasTec, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) and an indeterminate amount of 401(k) Plan interests. We have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement.

In connection therewith, we have examined and relied upon the original or a copy, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of: (i) the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated to date (the “Articles”) and Bylaws, as amended to the date hereof; (ii) the 401(k) Plan and the records of corporate proceedings of the Company related to the 401(k) Plan; (iii) the Registration Statement and exhibits thereto; and (iv) such other documents, instruments and records as we have deemed necessary for the expression of the opinions contained herein. In making the foregoing examinations, we have relied, without investigation, on each of the following assumptions: (a) the legal capacity of each natural person to take all actions required of each such person in connection with the Registration Statement and the registration, issuance and sale of the Shares, (b) the genuineness of all signatures, the completeness of all documents submitted to us, the authenticity of all documents reviewed by us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents reviewed by us as duplicates or certified or conformed photocopies, (c) as to matters of fact, the truthfulness, accuracy and completeness of the information, representations and warranties of the Company made in the Registration Statement and in the records, documents, instruments, certificates and statements we have reviewed, (d) the due execution and delivery of all documents (except that no such assumption is made as to the Company) where due execution and delivery are a prerequisite to the effectiveness thereof, (e) that there has been no undisclosed waiver of any right, remedy or provision contained in such documents and (f) that the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding after the issuance of any of the Shares will not exceed the number of shares of common stock that the Company then has the authority to issue under the Articles. As to various questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied, to the extent we deemed reasonably appropriate, upon statements and representations of officers or directors of the Company and upon documents, records and instruments furnished to us by the Company, without independently checking or verifying the accuracy of such documents, records and instruments.

Based upon the foregoing examination, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated herein, and assuming that (i) the Company reserves an adequate number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to the 401(k) Plan and (ii) the consideration, if any, for the Shares is actually received by the Company and the Shares are issued pursuant to the 401(k) Plan in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) Plan, we are of the opinion that the Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

This opinion is rendered solely in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, is limited to the matters stated herein, and no opinions may be implied or inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein. This opinion may not be relied upon for any other purpose without our prior written consent in each instance. Further, no portion of this letter may be quoted, circulated or referred to in any other document for any other purpose without our prior written consent.


We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

The opinions expressed herein are specifically limited to the corporate laws of the State of Florida and the federal securities laws of the United States of America and are as of the date hereof and we express no opinion as to matters governed by laws of any jurisdiction other than the corporate laws of the State of Florida and the federal securities laws of the United States of America, as in effect on the date hereof. This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement such opinions to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention, whether existing before or arising after the date hereof, or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.

 

Sincerely,
/s/ Holland & Knight LLP

   In Reference To: TEGE:EP:7521
   Date: 06/30/2020

Dear Applicant:

In our opinion, the form of the plan identified above is acceptable for use by employers for the benefit of their employees under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 401.

We considered the changes in qualification requirements in the 2017 Cumulative List of Notice 2017-37, 2017-29 Internal Revenue Bulletin (IRB) 89. Our opinion relates only to the acceptability of the form of the plan under the IRC. We did not consider the effect of other federal or local statutes.

You must provide the following to each employer who adopts this plan:

 

   

A copy of this letter

 

   

A copy of the approved plan

 

   

Copies of any subsequent amendments including their dates of adoption

 

   

Direct contact information including address and telephone number of the plan provider

Our opinion on the acceptability of the plan’s form is a determination as to the qualification of the plan as adopted by a particular employer only under the circumstances, and to the extent, described in Revenue Procedure (Rev. Proc.) 2017-41, 2017-29 I.R.B. 92. The employer who adopts this plan can generally rely on this letter to the extent described in Rev. Proc. 2017-41. Thus, Employee Plans Determinations, except as provided in Section 12 of Rev. Proc. 2020-4, 2020-01 I.R.B. 148 (as updated annually), will not issue a determination letter to an employer who adopts this plan. Review Rev. Proc. 2020-4 to determine the eligibility of an adopting employer, and the items needed, to submit a determination letter application. The employer must also follow the terms of the plan in operation.

Except as provided below, our opinion doesn’t apply to the requirements of IRC Sections 401(a)(4), 401(l), 410(b), and 414(s). Our opinion doesn’t apply to IRC Sections 415 and 416 if an employer maintains or ever maintained another qualified plan for one or more employees covered by this plan. For this purpose, we will not consider the employer to have maintained another defined contribution plan provided both of the following are true:

 

   

The employer terminated the other plan before the effective date of this plan

 

   

No annual additions have been credited to any participant’s account under the other plan as of any date within the limitation year of this plan

Also, for this purpose, we’ll consider an employer as maintaining another defined contribution plan, if the employer maintains any of the following:

 

   

A welfare benefit fund defined in IRC Section 419(e), which provides post-retirement medical benefits allocated to separate accounts for key employees as defined in IRC Section 419A(d)


MERRILL LYNCH PIERCE FENNER & SMITH INC

FFN: 31739810701-001

Page: 2

 

 

   

An individual medical account as defined in IRC Section 415(I)(2), which is part of a pension or annuity plan maintained by the employer

 

   

A simplified employee pension plan

Our opinion doesn’t apply to Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(a)-1(b)(2) requirements for a money purchase plan or target benefit plan where the normal retirement age under the employer’s plan is lower than age 62.

Our opinion doesn’t constitute a determination that the plan is an IRC Section 414(d) governmental plan. This letter is not a ruling with respect to the tax treatment to be given contributions which are picked up by the governmental employing unit within the meaning of IRC Section 414(h)(2).

Our opinion doesn’t constitute a determination that the plan is an IRC Section 414(e) church plan.

Our opinion may not be relied on by a non-electing church plan for rules governing pre-ERISA participation and coverage.

Our opinion applies to the requirements of IRC Section 410(b) if 100 percent of all non-excludable employees benefit under the plan.

Employers who choose a safe harbor allocation formula and a safe harbor compensation definition may also rely on this opinion letter for the non-discriminatory amounts requirement under IRC Section 401(a)(4).

If this plan includes a cash or deferred arrangement (CODA) or otherwise provides for contributions subject to IRC Sections 401(k) and/or 401(m), the employer may rely on the opinion letter regarding the form of the non-discrimination tests of IRC Sections 401(k)(3) and 401(m)(2), if the employer uses a safe harbor compensation definition. For plans described in IRC Sections 401(k)(12) or (13) and/or 401(m)(11) or (12), employers may rely on the opinion letter regarding whether the plan’s form satisfies the requirements of those sections unless the plan provides for the safe harbor contribution to be made under another plan. For SIMPLE plans described in IRC Sections 401(k)(11) and 401(m)(10), employers may also rely on the opinion letter regarding whether the plan’s form satisfies the requirements of those sections.

The provisions of this plan override any conflicting provision contained in the trust or custodial account documents used with the plan, and an adopting employer may not rely on this letter to the extent that provisions of a trust or custodial account that are a separate portion of the plan override or conflict with the provisions of the plan document. This opinion letter does not cover any provisions in trust or custodial account documents.

An employer who adopts this plan may not rely on this letter when:

 

   

the plan is being used to amend or restate a plan of the employer which was not previously qualified

 

   

the employer’s adoption of the plan precedes the issuance of the letter

 

   

the employer doesn’t correctly complete the adoption agreement or other elective provisions in the plan

 

   

the plan is not identical to the pre-approved plan (that is, the employer has made amendments that cause the plan not to be considered identical to the pre-approved plan, as described in Section 8.03 of Rev. Proc. 2017-41)

Our opinion doesn’t apply to what is contained in any documents referenced outside the plan or adoption agreement, if applicable, such as a collective bargaining agreement.

Our opinion doesn’t consider issues under Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) which are administered by the Department of Labor.

If you, the pre-approved plan provider, have questions about the status of this case, you can call the telephone number at the top of the first page of this letter. This number is only for the provider’s use.
