We have been appointed by Via Renewables, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to act as Information Agent in connection with the Company’s offer to purchase up to 800,000 shares of its 8.75% Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $22.50 per share, in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 15, 2024 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal,” and together with the Offer to Purchase, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer”). Please furnish copies of the enclosed materials to those of your clients for whom you hold shares registered in your name or in the name of your nominee. Unless context otherwise requires, all references to the “shares” shall refer to the Series A Preferred Stock of the Company.
For your information, and for forwarding to those of your clients for whom you hold shares registered in your name or in the name of your nominee, we are enclosing the following documents:
1. | Offer to Purchase, dated November 15, 2024; |
2. | Letter of Transmittal (including the Form W-9), for your use in accepting the Offer and tendering shares of, and for the information of, your clients; |
3. | A form of letter that may be sent to your clients for whose accounts you hold shares registered in your name or in the name of a nominee, with an Instruction Form provided for obtaining such client’s instructions with regard to the Offer; |
4. | Notice of Guaranteed Delivery with respect to shares, to be used to accept the Offer if your clients’ shares are not immediately available or cannot be delivered to you to be further delivered to the Depositary prior to the Expiration Time (or the procedures for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis), or if time will not permit all required documents, including a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, to reach the Depositary prior to the Expiration Time; and |
5. | Return envelope addressed to Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, as the Depositary. |
The Offer is not conditioned upon the receipt of any financing or on any minimum number of shares being tendered. The Offer is, however, subject to a number of terms and conditions. See Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase. Please see Section 13 of the Offer to Purchase for a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to the Offer, including a discussion of withholding requirements.
Your prompt action is requested. We urge you to contact your clients as promptly as possible.

Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the purchase price of the shares regardless of any extension of, or amendment to, the Offer or any delay in paying for such shares.
