Item 1.01.

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

previously reported, on December 1, 2025, American Bridge Company (“American Bridge”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Southland

Holdings, Inc. (“Southland”) received an adverse ruling in the case of American Bridge Company v. Clark/Lewis Joint Venture

(“Clark/Lewis”), et al. relating to the Washington State Convention Center project (the “WSCC Project”). In this

litigation, the Superior Court of the State of Washington for King County, by order dated January 15, 2026, ruled in favor of Clark/Lewis

and entered a judgement against American Bridge and certain of its sureties (each, a “Surety,” and collectively, the “Sureties”),

jointly and severally (the “WSCC Judgement”). On March 27, 2026, American Bridge entered into a Settlement Agreement

and Release of Claims (the “WSCC Settlement Agreement”) with the Sureties, among others, to resolve disputes arising out

of the WSCC Project, including the WSCC Judgement. Pursuant to the WSCC Settlement Agreement, the Sureties paid Clark/Lewis a negotiated

settlement amount in connection with the WSCC Judgement. Southland reported a corresponding surety payable, in an amount equal to that

settlement amount, on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.

August 26, 2026, certain subsidiaries of Southland (together with Southland, the “Company”) entered into a Settlement Agreement

(the “Settlement Agreement”) with Liberty Mutual Insurance Company (“Liberty”), Zurich American Insurance Company

and Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland (collectively, “Zurich”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company will

pay $5 million to Liberty on or before September 30, 2026, to fully resolve and settle approximately $36.4 million of losses incurred

by Liberty as a Surety in connection with the WSCC Project, of which approximately $34 million relates to the WSCC Judgement.

Based

on its preliminary assessment, the Company expects the Settlement Agreement to favorably impact income (losses) before income taxes by

approximately $29 million in the third quarter of 2026. The Company is continuing to evaluate the appropriate accounting treatment and

related financial statement impact of the Settlement Agreement, and the foregoing estimate is preliminary and subject to change as the

Company completes that evaluation.

The

Company is in negotiations with Zurich to resolve the remaining surety payable related to the WSCC Judgement.

The

foregoing summary of the Settlement Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Settlement

Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

American Bridge Company, Cross Defendant, Consolidated Case No. 22-2-19603-3SEA (the “Judgment”), which was assigned by Clark/Lewis to Sureties pursuant to that certain Full Assignment of Judgment dated July 14, 2026, and the Judgment is subject to indemnification by Indemnitors;

WHEREAS, Liberty has incurred loss in satisfying obligations in connection with the Judgment and other payments related to the Washington State Convention Center in an amount that is at least equal to Thirty Six Million Four Hundred Thirty Six Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Three Dollars ($36,436,753) (the “Existing Liberty Loss”), for which Liberty is entitled to reimbursement from Indemnitors;

WHEREAS, Sureties and Indemnitors have resolved, compromised, and settled the terms of payment of the Existing Liberty Loss in its entirety and now wish to document the terms of such resolution and settlement in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises exchanged in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined in the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, as used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Bonded Contracts” means any contract or obligation the performance of which is guaranteed or covered either in whole or in part under a Bond.

“Bonds” means any surety bond, undertaking, recognizance, instrument of guarantee or other surety obligation issued by Sureties on behalf of any of ABC Group on or before the date of this Agreement, or issued by Sureties after the date of this Agreement pursuant to the requirements of any Bonded Contract or Bond entered into or issued on or before the date of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, “Bonds” are limited to surety obligations related to the Bonded Contracts and do not include any bonds or related obligations related to Southland as the named principal.

“Existing Loss” means the amount totaling the Existing Liberty Loss and the Existing Zurich Loss.

“Indemnity Agreements” means: (i) the General Agreement of Indemnity dated October 15, 2009, executed by ABC Group for the benefit of Sureties, (ii) the Agreement of Indemnity dated March 21, 2006, executed by ABC Group for the benefit of Sureties, (iii) the General Agreement of Indemnity dated February 14, 2013, executed by ABC Group for the benefit of Sureties, and (iv) Deed of Indemnity dated April 11, 2006, executed by Continental Engineering Corp. in favor of Zurich, and all amendments, modifications, replacements, and restatements of any of the foregoing.

“Queensboro Litigation” means that case styled American Bridge Company, Plaintiff, v. The City of New York, Defendant, filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York on or about March 9, 2026 (Index No. 651423/2026).

2. Reaffirmation of Indemnity Obligations. Indemnitors hereby reaffirm and affirm their indemnification obligations under the Indemnity Agreements and agree to continue to be bound and abide by same. Southland hereby reaffirms and affirms its indemnification obligations under the Surety Agreement and agrees to continue to be bound and abide by same. Except as expressly stated and noted herein, nothing contained in this Agreement and done pursuant hereto will in any way impair, alter, or modify any and/or all of the rights and remedies of Sureties against (i) ABC Group under or in connection with the Indemnity Agreements, and (ii) Southland under or in connection with the Surety Agreement. This Agreement is not to be considered a novation or accord and satisfaction of the Indemnity Agreements or the Surety Agreement.

3. Settlement Payment. Liberty and Indemnitors acknowledge and agree that the total amount of loss incurred by Liberty is at least the Existing Liberty Loss. Zurich and Indemnitors acknowledge and agree that the total amount of loss incurred by Zurich is at least the Existing Zurich Loss. In exchange for the release and settlement set forth herein, and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Indemnitors shall pay Liberty Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (“the Settlement Payment”). Such Settlement Payment shall be (a) made in cash via ACH or wire transfer on or before September 30, 2026, with payment to be coordinated through Liberty’s counsel, and (b) in full satisfaction of the Existing Liberty Loss. Zurich shall have no rights in or to any portion of the Settlement Payment.

4. Release. Upon receipt of the Settlement Payment, Liberty shall release any and all Indemnitors from the remaining Existing Liberty Loss. For the avoidance of doubt, Indemnitors will not be released from any of their other indemnity obligations with respect to any additional loss that may be sustained or incurred by Sureties after the execution of this Agreement, including any additional loss that may be sustained or incurred by Sureties as the result of events or occurrences prior to the date of this Agreement.

5. Trust Funds; Equitable Subrogation. Indemnitors agree and expressly declare that all funds due or to become due under the Bonded Contracts (including, but not limited to, proceeds of affirmative claims, claims in the Queensboro Litigation, and insurance proceeds) are trust funds, whether in possession of any of Indemnitors or another, for the benefit and the payment of all persons to whom any of ABC Group incurs obligations in the performance of the Bonded Contracts, for which any of Sureties is or may be liable under the Bonds. If Sureties discharge any such obligations, with or without a claim asserted against Sureties under the Bonds, they will be entitled to assert the right of such person to the trust fund. All payments received for or on account of any Bonded Contract (including, but not limited to, any payments with respect to affirmative claims, claims in the Queensboro Litigation, and insurance claims) will be held in a trust fund to assure the payment of obligations incurred or to be incurred in the performance of any such Bonded Contract and for labor, materials, and services furnished in the prosecution of the performance required by any such Bonded Contract or any extension or modification thereof. All monies due and to become due under any Bonded Contract (including, but not limited to, proceeds of affirmative claims, claims in the Queensboro Litigation, and insurance proceeds) are also trust funds, whether in the possession of any of Indemnitors, or otherwise. Unless otherwise restricted or regulated by state or local laws, the trust funds can be commingled with other funds, but the trust fund nature and purpose as stated in this paragraph will not be modified nor waived by this commingling provision. Nothing in this Agreement will waive, abridge, or diminish any right which Sureties might have if this Agreement were not executed, including without limitation the right of equitable subrogation, which Indemnitors expressly recognize.

6. Default. The following events will be deemed a “default” under this Agreement should any of them occur prior to the last to occur of (i) payment of the Settlement Payment in full, (ii) satisfaction of all loss (exclusive of Existing Loss) subject to indemnification, and (iii) all exposure under the Bonds having been extinguished:

(a) Indemnitors fail to pay the Settlement Payment as required under Section 3;

(b) Indemnitors fail to pay any and all loss (exclusive of the Liberty Existing Loss, which is to be paid pursuant to this Agreement without demand of Sureties) in full upon demand by Sureties;

(c) The filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against any of Indemnitors or the commencement of any proceedings in bankruptcy (provided Indemnitors, as applicable, will not be in default under this Agreement, if such Indemnitor obtains a dismissal of such involuntary petition no later than sixty (60) business days following its filing);

(d) The appointment of a receiver for any property of any of Indemnitors (provided Indemnitors, as applicable, will not be in default under this Agreement, if such Indemnitor obtains a dismissal of such receiver no later than thirty (30) business days following the appointment of the receiver);

(e) Any of Indemnitors materially breach any of the covenants, representations, and warranties set forth in this Agreement; or

(f) Indemnitors breach any of the terms of any other agreement with any of Sureties.

In the event of any default other than as set forth in subsection (a) above, Sureties will be entitled to recover from Indemnitors any and all loss (except the Liberty Existing Loss) and will be further entitled to exercise any and all remedies that may be available to them under the Indemnity Agreements, the Surety Agreement, this Agreement, under any contract, applicable law, or in equity.

7. Acknowledgement. Except as otherwise released hereby in Section 4 above, Indemnitors confirm and agree that they are responsible to Sureties for payment and satisfaction of all Existing Loss, including the Judgment.

8. Bankruptcy Provisions. Each of Indemnitors represents and warrants to Sureties that it does not intend to file any proceeding in bankruptcy or for reorganization, or a similar form of creditors composition, whether under state or federal law, or for readjustment of any of his, her, or its debts under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the U.S. Code). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Indemnitor files for protection under the Bankruptcy Code, such Indemnitor agrees: (i) not to dispute any and all amounts asserted by Sureties before any Bankruptcy Court, to be owed to Sureties by Indemnitors, including, but not limited to, those monies which were incurred (x) in connection with the Judgment, (y) in the payment, resolution, and/or settlement of claims submitted under the Bonds, and (z) monies incurred by Sureties due to the retention of counsel and/or other consultants and/or professionals; and (ii) that, in the event any amounts paid to Liberty under this Agreement are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to constitute a “preference,” within the meaning of Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code, and by reason thereof, or any other reason, Liberty is required to disgorge said amount paid, then Liberty will be entitled to assert a claim in bankruptcy for any and all Existing Liberty Loss and any and all additional loss incurred by it, as further described in the foregoing item (i).

9. Notice. Any and all notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement will be in writing and will be sent by (i) hand delivery, (ii) a nationally recognized overnight courier that provides proof of receipt and delivery, or (iii) United States Postal Service certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. Receipt of such notice will be deemed to have occurred as follows: (i) on the date of hand delivery if hand-delivered; (ii) on the date of delivery if delivered by a nationally recognized private express delivery service providing proof of receipt and delivery; or (iii) on the date of the United States Postal Service postmark if sent by certified mail. Rejection, refusal, or failure to claim delivery of any such notice, or the inability to deliver because of a changed address of which no notice was given, will be deemed to be receipt of the notice sent as of the date of the United States Postal Service postmark, or the date of attempted personal delivery or overnight courier delivery.

For purposes of this Agreement, the addresses where such notices must be sent, with copies where designated, are set forth in this Section 8. Should any address of a party change, such party will notify the other by providing written notice of such change pursuant to the notice provisions hereof.
