**EXPLANATORY NOTE** 

At the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders of Evercore Inc. (the "Company" or the "Registrant"), the Company's stockholders approved the Fourth Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the "Fourth Amended 2016 Plan"), which provides for grants of equity awards to designated employees, directors and other service providers of the Company and its affiliates. The number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.01 (the "Shares") which may be granted under the Fourth Amended 2016 Plan has been increased by 5,000,000 Shares from the 53,500,000 Shares which were previously authorized for issuance under the Third Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan, effective June 18, 2024. This Registration Statement on Form S-8 relates to the additional 5,000,000 Shares authorized for issuance under the Fourth Amended 2016 Plan.

Pursuant to General Instruction E on Form S-8, the contents of the Registration Statement on Form S-8 with respect to the Third Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (Registration No. 333-280413), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 2024, including the information contained therein, are hereby incorporated by reference to this Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), except that the provisions contained in Part II of such earlier registration statement are modified as set forth in this Registration Statement.

**Item 6.** **Indemnification of Directors and Officers** <br>

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in summary, that directors and officers of Delaware corporations are entitled, under certain circumstances, to be indemnified against all expenses and liabilities (including attorneys' fees) incurred by them as a result of suits brought against them in their capacity as a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the Company's best interests, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful; provided that no indemnification may be made against expenses in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which they shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, they are fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper. Any such indemnification may be made by the Company only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination by the stockholders, disinterested directors or independent legal counsel that indemnification is proper because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct.

------

The Company's certificate of incorporation provides that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law and that no director shall be liable for monetary damages to the Company or its stockholders for any breach of fiduciary duty, except to the extent provided by applicable law.

The Company currently maintains liability insurance for its directors and officers. Such insurance is available to the Company's directors and officers in accordance with its terms.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") of 5,000,000 shares (the "Securities") of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Evercore Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), issuable under the Fourth Amended and Restated 2016 Evercore Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), we, as your counsel, have examined such corporate records, certificates and other documents, and such questions of law, as we have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

Upon the basis of such examination, it is our opinion that when the registration statement relating to the Securities (the "Registration Statement") has become effective under the Act, the terms of the sale of the Securities have been duly established in conformity with the Company's certificate of incorporation, and the Securities have been duly issued and sold as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Securities will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

In rendering the foregoing opinion, we are not passing upon, and assume no responsibility for, any disclosure in any registration statement or any related prospectus or other offering material relating to the offer and sale of the Securities.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the Federal laws of the United States and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we are expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

We have relied as to certain factual matters on information obtained from public officials, officers of the Company and other sources believed by us to be responsible.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act.
