#### Introductory Note.
As previously disclosed, on December 20, 2025, Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>") with GT Silver BidCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Parent</u>"), and GT Silver Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("<u>Merger Sub</u>"), which provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company with the Company surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "<u>Merger</u>").

On June 25, 2026 (the "<u>Closing Date</u>"), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "<u>DGCL</u>"), the Merger was consummated. At the effective time of the Merger (the "<u>Effective Time</u>"), the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, and the Company survived the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

| **Item 1.01** | **Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**  |

---

*Credit Agreement* 

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the Merger, Parent, as a guarantor, Merger Sub, as the initial borrower, and the Company, as a borrower, entered into that certain Credit Agreement (the "<u>Credit Agreement</u>") by and among Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp., as administrative agent, the lenders and issuing banks from time to time party thereto, which provides for (i) a senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2,700,000,000, (ii) a senior secured delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 and (iii) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $325,000,000. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Parent and certain other wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company and are secured on a first-priority basis by substantially all assets of the borrower and the guarantors (subject to certain exclusions and exceptions). The Credit Agreement includes representations and warranties, covenants, events of default and other provisions that are customary for facilities of this type.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

|:---|:---|
| **Item 1.02** | **Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.**  |

---

On June 25, 2026, in connection with the Merger, all outstanding indebtedness under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of April 21, 2025, by and among, CWAN Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Clearwater Analytics, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, the lenders and the issuing banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the closing of the Merger, the "<u>Existing Credit Agreement</u>"), was repaid in full and all commitments thereunder were terminated. Additionally, the guarantees and liens securing the indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement were discharged and released.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Item 2.01** | **Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.**  |

---

As described above, at the Effective Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, (i) Parent completed its previously announced acquisition of the Company, (ii) the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent and (iii) each share of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "<u>Company Class</u> <u>A Common Stock</u>") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including each share of Company Class A Common Stock resulting from the OpCo Units Exchange (as defined below) (other than shares of Company Class A Common Stock (a) owned by Parent or Merger Sub, (b) owned by the Company as treasury shares or (c) held by any person who properly exercised appraisal rights under the DGCL), was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $24.55 per share, without interest (the "<u>Merger Consideration</u>").

------

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the limited liability agreement of CWAN Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("<u>OpCo</u>"), and the Company's certificate of incorporation, the Company required each holder of Class A Common Units of OpCo (the "<u>OpCo Units</u>") to exchange all of such holder's OpCo Units and shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "<u>Company Class</u> <u>B Common Stock</u>") for shares of Company Class A Common Stock (the "<u>OpCo Units Exchange</u>"). Immediately upon consummation of the OpCo Units Exchange, each share of Company Class B Common Stock was automatically canceled, such that no shares of Company Class B Common Stock remained outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

In addition, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time and except as set forth below, each outstanding award with respect to Company Class A Common Stock was canceled in exchange for a cash award equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock subject to the award (determined assuming the achievement of any performance-vesting conditions at the maximum level), less the aggregate exercise price in the case of awards that were an option to purchase shares of Company Class A Common Stock ("<u>Options</u>").

In the case of restricted stock units with respect to Company Class A Common Stock ("<u>RSUs</u>") that were held by a non-employee member of the board of directors of the Company (the "<u>Board</u>") and all other RSUs that were vested as of the Effective Time, the resulting cash award was fully vested and became payable at the Effective Time. In the case of all other RSUs, the resulting cash award remains subject to all time-vesting terms and conditions that applied to the underlying award as of the Effective Time.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 22, 2025, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, the Company notified the New York Stock Exchange (the "<u>NYSE</u>") on June 25, 2026 that the Merger had been completed and requested that the trading of the Company Class A Common Stock be suspended and listing of the Company Class A Common Stock on the NYSE be removed. The Company has requested that the NYSE file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("<u>SEC</u>") to report that the Company Class A Common Stock was no longer listed on the NYSE and deregister the Company Class A Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>Exchange Act</u>"). After the Form 25 becomes effective, the Company intends to file with the SEC a Certification and Notification of Termination on Form 15 requesting the termination of registration of Company Class A Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of the Company's reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to Company Class A Common Stock.

| **Item 5.01** | **Changes in Control of Registrant.**  |

---

As a result of the consummation of the Merger, a change of control of the Company occurred and the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. The total amount of cash consideration payable to the Company's equityholders at closing in connection with the Merger and pursuant to the Merger Agreement was approximately $7.4 billion. The funds used by Parent to consummate the Merger and complete the related transactions came from approximately $5.7 billion in the form of equity investments by funds affiliated with, among others, Permira Advisers LLC (an affiliate of Parent and Merger Sub), Warburg Pincus LLC, Francisco Partners Management, L.P. and Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited (collectively, the "<u>Consortium</u>") and approximately $2.7 billion in the form of debt financing from certain financial institutions.

Scott Mackesy, Bas NieuweWeme and Andrew Young resigned from the Board and from any and all committees of the Board on which they served and ceased to be directors of the Company, and the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, Peter Flynn and Thomas Lafrance, were appointed as directors of the Company. Immediately thereafter, Parent, as the sole stockholder of the Company, removed all of the directors of the Company (other than Sandeep Sahai) and elected Jim Cox to serve as a director of the Company.

In addition, at the Effective Time, the Company terminated the Company's 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Enfusion, Inc. 2021 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and the Company's 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

## Exhibit 3.1

**Exhibit 3.1** 

**SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED** 

**CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION** 

**OF** 

**CLEARWATER ANALYTICS HOLDINGS, INC.** 

<u>FIRST</u> 

The name of the corporation (the "<u>Corporation</u>") is Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc.

<u>SECOND</u> 

The registered address of the Corporation in the State of Delaware 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19808. The name of its registered agent at such address is Corporation Service Company.

<u>THIRD</u> 

The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which a corporation may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended ("<u>DGCL</u>") or any successor statute.

<u>FOURTH</u> 

The total number of shares of all classes of stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Thousand (1,000) shares, all of which are Common Stock with a par value of $0.01.

<u>FIFTH</u> 

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, it is provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of
Directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, alter, amend or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation.

<u>SIXTH</u> 

Election of directors need not be by written ballot unless the bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide.

<u>SEVENTH</u> 

To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it now exists or may hereafter be amended, a director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty owed to the Corporation or its stockholders.

Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article Seventh, nor the adoption of any provision of this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, any modification of law shall eliminate, reduce or otherwise adversely affect any right or protection of a current or former director of the Corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal, adoption or modification.

------

<u>EIGHTH</u> 

Subject to such limitations as may be from time to time imposed by other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, by the bylaws of the Corporation, by the DGCL or other applicable law, or by any contract or agreement to which the Corporation is or may become a party, the Corporation reserves the right to amend or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this express reservation.

<u>NINTH</u> 

Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (an "<u>Alternative Forum Consent</u>"), the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a duty (including any fiduciary duty) owed by any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation's stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation arising out of or relating to any provision of the General Corporation Law or this Certificate of Incorporation or the bylaws of the Corporation, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that, in the event that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, in each such case, unless the Court of Chancery (or such other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) has dismissed a prior action by the same plaintiff asserting the same claims because such court lacked personal jurisdiction over an indispensable party named as a defendant therein. Unless the Corporation gives an Alternative Forum Consent, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations thereunder. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause the Corporation irreparable harm and the Corporation shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions. Any person or entity purchasing, otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article Tenth. The existence of any prior Alternative Forum Consent shall not act as a waiver of the Corporation's ongoing consent right as set forth above in this Article Tenth with respect to any current or future actions or claims.

Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, (i) by a reasonably accessible electronic network, *provided that* the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation.

If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law, such list shall be the only evidence as to the identity of stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by this <u>Section</u> <u>8</u> or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders. The Corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list.

A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may remain irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally.

SECTION 11 RATIFICATION OF ACTS OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. Except as otherwise provided by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, any transaction or contract or act of the Corporation or of the directors or the officers of the Corporation may be ratified by the affirmative vote of the holders of the number of shares which would have been necessary to approve such transaction, contract or act at a meeting of stockholders, or by the written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting.

**ARTICLE VI.** 

**INDEMNIFICATION** 

SECTION 1 RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved, as a witness or otherwise, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (each a "<u>proceeding</u>"), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee

------

benefit plan (an "<u>indemnitee</u>"), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, if permitted, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith; provided, however, that, except as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>3</u> of <u>Article VI</u> of these By-laws with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses or with respect to any compulsory counterclaim brought by such indemnitee, the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

SECTION 2 RIGHT TO ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in <u>Section</u> <u>1</u> of <u>Article VI</u> of these By-laws, an indemnitee shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in appearing at, participating in or defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition or in connection with a proceeding brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification or advancement of expenses under this <u>Article VI</u> (which shall be governed by <u>Section</u> <u>3</u> of <u>Article VI</u> of these By-laws) (hereinafter an "<u>advancement</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>expenses</u>"); *provided*, *however*, that, if the DGCL requires or in the case of an advance made in a proceeding brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification or advancement, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made solely upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an "<u>undertaking</u>"), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a "<u>final adjudication</u>") that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified or entitled to advancement of expenses under <u>Section</u> <u>1</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>2</u> of <u>Article VI</u> of these By-laws or otherwise.

SECTION 3 RIGHT OF INDEMNITEE TO BRING SUIT. If a claim under <u>Section</u> <u>1</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2</u> of <u>Article VI</u> of these By-laws is not paid in full by the Corporation within (a) 60 days after a written claim for indemnification has been received by the Corporation or (b) 20 days after a claim for an advancement of expenses has been received by the Corporation, the indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim or to obtain advancement of expenses, as applicable. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the expense (including attorneys' fees) of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (a) any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that the indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL and (b) any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that the indemnitee has not met any applicable

------

standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the indemnitee, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise, the burden of proving that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this <u>Article VI</u> or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

SECTION 4 INDEMNIFICATION NOT EXCLUSIVE.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The provision of indemnification to or the advancement of expenses and costs to any indemnitee under this <u>Article VI</u>, or the entitlement of any indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of expenses and costs under this <u>Article VI</u>, shall not limit or restrict in any way the power of the Corporation to indemnify or advance expenses and costs to such indemnitee in any other way permitted by law or be deemed exclusive of, or invalidate, any right to which any indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses and costs may be entitled under any law, agreement, vote of stockholders of the Corporation or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such indemnitee's capacity as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Corporation and as to action in any other capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Given that certain jointly indemnifiable claims (as defined below) may arise due to the service of the indemnitee as a director and/or officer of the Corporation at the request of the indemnitee-related entities (as defined below), the Corporation shall be fully and primarily responsible for the payment to the indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-laws (or any other agreement between the Corporation and such persons) in connection with any such jointly indemnifiable claims, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this <u>Article VI</u>, irrespective of any right of recovery the indemnitee may have from the indemnitee-related entities. Any obligation on the part of any indemnitee-related entities to indemnify or advance expenses to any indemnitee shall be secondary to the Corporation's obligation and shall be reduced by any amount that the indemnitee may collect as indemnification or advancement from the Corporation. The Corporation irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the indemnitee-related entities from any and all claims against the indemnitee-related entities for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. Under no circumstance shall the Corporation be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the indemnitee-related entities and no right of advancement or recovery the indemnitee may have from the indemnitee-related entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the indemnitee or the obligations of the Corporation hereunder. In the event that any of the indemnitee-related entities shall make any payment to the indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to any jointly

------

indemnifiable claim, the indemnitee-related entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the indemnitee against the Corporation and the indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the indemnitee-related entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. Each of the indemnitee-related entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this <u>Section</u> <u>4(b)</u>, entitled to enforce this <u>Section</u> <u>4(b)</u>.

For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4(b)</u>, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The term "<u>indemnitee-related entities</u>" means any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than the Corporation or any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise for which the indemnitee has agreed, on behalf of the Corporation or at the Corporation's request, to serve as a director, officer, employee or agent and which service is covered by the indemnity described herein) from whom an indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to which, in whole or in part, the Corporation may also have an indemnification or advancement obligation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The term "<u>jointly indemnifiable claims</u>" shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding for which the indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses from both the indemnitee-related entities and the Corporation pursuant to Delaware law, any agreement or certificate of incorporation, by-laws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or comparable organizational documents of the Corporation or the indemnitee-related entities, as applicable.

SECTION 5 CORPORATE OBLIGATIONS; RELIANCE. The rights granted pursuant to the provisions of this <u>Article VI</u> shall vest at the time a person becomes a director or officer of the Corporation and shall be deemed to create a binding contractual obligation on the part of the Corporation to the persons who from time to time are elected as officers or directors of the Corporation and such persons in acting in their capacities as officers or directors of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be entitled to rely on such provisions of this <u>Article VI</u> without giving notice thereof to the Corporation. Such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of this <u>Article VI</u> that adversely affects any right of an indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit, eliminate, or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment or repeal.

SECTION 6 INSURANCE. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

------

SECTION 7 INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS OF THE CORPORATION. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized by the Board, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this <u>Article VI</u> with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum;

**Clearwater Analytics Completes $8.4 Billion Take-Private Acquisition by Permira and Warburg Pincus** 

**Acquisition supported by Francisco Partners, with participation from Temasek** 

**Stockholders receive $24.55 per share** 

**BOISE, Idaho, June 25, 2026 –** <u>Clearwater Analytics</u> ("CWAN", "Clearwater" or the "Company"), today announced the completion of its previously announced acquisition, a transaction valued at approximately $8.4 billion, by a Permira and Warburg Pincus-led Investor Group (the "Investor Group"). The transaction was supported by Francisco Partners, with participation from Temasek. With the completion of the acquisition, Clearwater's Class A common stock no longer trades on the New York Stock Exchange.

Under the terms of the agreement, Clearwater stockholders received $24.55 per share in cash, representing an approximately 47% premium over the Company's undisturbed share price on November 10, 2025, the last trading day prior to media reports regarding a potential transaction.

The transaction followed a thorough review process overseen by a Special Committee of independent and disinterested members of the Clearwater Board of Directors, which unanimously recommended approval of the transaction. The transaction was approved by the Board and Clearwater's stockholders (including a majority of votes cast by disinterested stockholders).

The transaction positions Clearwater to accelerate investment in its AI roadmap and next-generation platform capabilities. Clearwater's data foundation, a single, real-time view of every asset across public and private markets, is what makes that roadmap possible. As a private company, with the full backing of the Permira funds and Warburg Pincus, Clearwater gains the flexibility to build on that foundation faster and take its agentic capabilities further for the institutional investors who trust it with over $10 trillion in assets globally.

"We have built Clearwater on a conviction that most of the industry thought was too ambitious: that investment teams deserve a single, real-time view of everything they own, every asset, every day, across every market. Innovation and disruption have been the key drivers of growth for over a decade," said Sandeep Sahai, CEO at Clearwater Analytics. "Our ability to focus on scaling our current platform while building a Gen AI agentic platform is meaningfully enhanced by going private. Our clients depend upon us to be stewards of the platform they use, and our investments will ensure that they remain at the forefront of technological innovation for running their business."
