(e) ***Adoption of 2025 Inducement Plan***

On September 14, 2025, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of C3.ai, Inc. (the "Company") unanimously approved and adopted the C3.ai, Inc. 2025 Inducement Plan (the "Inducement Plan"). The Inducement Plan provides for the grant of equity-based awards in the form of non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance awards, and other stock-based awards. The Inducement Plan was adopted by the Board without stockholder approval pursuant to Section 303A.08 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

The Board has reserved 5,000,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the Inducement Plan. Awards under the Inducement Plan may be granted only to persons who satisfy the standards for "employment inducement awards" under Section 303A.08 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Awards under the Inducement Plan must be approved by either (i) a majority of the Company's "Independent Directors" (as determined under Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual), or (ii) the Compensation Committee of the Board ("Compensation Committee"), provided that the Compensation Committee is composed solely of Independent Directors.

The Inducement Plan is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.1 of the Company's registration statement on Form S-8, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 15, 2025. The foregoing description of the terms of the Inducement Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Inducement Plan.
