On October 8, 2025, Alliance Laundry Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), priced its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an offering price of $22.00 per share. On October 8, 2025, in connection with the IPO, the Company and BDT Badger Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Selling Stockholder”), entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters specified therein.

The Company and the Selling Stockholder made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants and agreed to indemnify the underwriters against (or contribute to the payment of) certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

In connection with the IPO, the Company also entered into the following agreements:

•a Stockholders Agreement, dated October 8, 2025, by and between the Company and the Selling Stockholder (the “Stockholders Agreement”), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein;

•a Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 8, 2025, by and between the Company and the Selling Stockholder (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein; and

•an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated October 9, 2025, by and between the Company and Michael D. Schoeb, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
