PART I - GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. It is important that you completely read and understand the Notice of (I) Pendency of Class Action and
Proposed Settlement; (II) Settlement Hearing; and (III) Motion for Attorneys’ Fees and Litigation Expenses (the “Notice”) that
accompanies this Claim Form, including the Plan of Allocation of the Net Settlement Fund set forth in the Notice. The Notice
describes the proposed Settlement, how Settlement Class Members are affected by the Settlement, and the manner in which the
Net Settlement Fund will be distributed if the Settlement and Plan of Allocation are approved by the Court. The Notice also
contains the definitions of many of the defined terms (which are indicated by initial capital letters) used in this Claim Form.
Other definitions of defined terms indicated by initial capital letters are set forth in the Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement
dated September 6, 2024 (“Stipulation”), and available at www.CerenceSecuritiesLitigation.com. By signing and submitting
this Claim Form, you will be certifying that you have read and that you understand the Notice, including the terms of the
releases described therein and provided for herein.
2. By submitting this Claim Form, you will be making a request to share in the proceeds of the Settlement
described in the Notice. If you are not a Settlement Class Member (see the definition of the Settlement Class on page 5 of the
Notice), or if you, or someone acting on your behalf, submitted a request for exclusion from the Settlement Class, do not submit
a Claim Form. You may not, directly or indirectly, participate in the Settlement if you are not a Settlement Class
Member. Thus, if you are excluded from the Settlement Class, any Claim Form that you submit, or that may be submitted on
your behalf, will not be accepted.
3. Submission of this Claim Form does not guarantee that you will share in the proceeds of the Settlement.
The distribution of the Net Settlement Fund will be governed by the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice or by such
other plan of allocation as the Court approves.
4. On the Schedule of Transactions in Part III of this Claim Form, provide all of the requested information
with respect to your holdings, purchases, acquisitions, and sales of Cerence common stock (including free transfers and
deliveries), whether such transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to report all transaction and holding information
during the requested time period may result in the rejection of your claim.
5. Please note: Only purchases or acquisitions of the common stock of Cerence Inc. (“Cerence”) from November
16, 2020 through February 4, 2022, inclusive, are eligible under the Settlement and the proposed Plan of Allocation set forth
in the Notice. However, under the “90-day look-back period” (described in the Plan of Allocation), sales of Cerence common
stock during the period from February 5, 2022 through the close of trading on May 6, 2022 will be used for purposes of
calculating Recognized Loss Amounts under the Plan of Allocation. Therefore, in order for the Claims Administrator to be
able to balance your claim, the requested purchase information during this period must also be provided.
6. You are required to submit genuine and sufficient documentation for all of your transactions in and holdings
of Cerence common stock set forth in the Schedule of Transactions in Part III. Documentation may consist of copies of
brokerage confirmation slips or monthly brokerage account statements, or an authorized statement from your broker containing
the transactional and holding information found in a broker confirmation slip or account statement. The Parties and the Claims
Administrator do not independently have information about your investments in Cerence common stock. IF SUCH
DOCUMENTS ARE NOT IN YOUR POSSESSION, PLEASE OBTAIN COPIES OF THE DOCUMENTS OR
EQUIVALENT DOCUMENTS FROM YOUR BROKER. FAILURE TO SUPPLY THIS DOCUMENTATION MAY
RESULT IN THE REJECTION OF YOUR CLAIM. DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS.
7. Please keep a copy of all documents that you send to the Claims Administrator. Also, do not highlight
any portion of the Claim Form or any supporting documents.
8. Use Part I of this Claim Form entitled “CLAIMANT INFORMATION” to identify the beneficial owner(s) of
Cerence common stock. The complete name(s) of the beneficial owner(s) must be entered. If you held the Cerence common
stock in your own name, you were the beneficial owner as well as the record owner. If, however, your shares of Cerence
common stock were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you were the beneficial owner
of these shares, but the third party was the record owner. The beneficial owner, not the record owner, must sign this Claim
Form to be eligible to participate in the Settlement. If there were joint beneficial owners each must sign this Claim Form and
their names must appear as “Claimants” in Part I of this Claim Form.
9. One Claim should be submitted for each separate legal entity or separately managed account. Separate
Claim Forms should be submitted for each separate legal entity (e.g., an individual should not combine his, her or their IRA
transactions with transactions made solely in the individual’s name). Generally, a single Claim Form should be submitted on
behalf of one legal entity including all holdings and transactions made by that entity on one Claim Form. However, if a single
person or legal entity had multiple accounts that were separately managed, separate Claims may be submitted for each such
account. The Claims Administrator reserves the right to request information on all the holdings and transactions in Cerence
common stock made on behalf of a single beneficial owner.
10. Agents, executors, administrators, guardians, and trustees must complete and sign the Claim Form on behalf
of persons represented by them, and they must:
(a) expressly state the capacity in which they are acting;
(b) identify the name, account number, Social Security Number (or Taxpayer Identification Number),
address, and telephone number of the beneficial owner of (or other person or entity on whose behalf
they are acting with respect to) the Cerence common stock; and
(c) furnish herewith evidence of their authority to bind to the Claim Form the person or entity on whose
behalf they are acting. (Authority to complete and sign a Claim Form cannot be established by
stockbrokers demonstrating only that they have discretionary authority to trade securities in another
person’s accounts.)
11. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing that you:
(a) own(ed) the Cerence common stock you have listed in the Claim Form; or
(b) are expressly authorized to act on behalf of the owner thereof.
12. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing to the truth of the statements contained therein and
the genuineness of the documents attached thereto, subject to penalties of perjury under the laws of the United States of
America. The making of false statements, or the submission of forged or fraudulent documentation, will result in the rejection
of your claim and may subject you to civil liability or criminal prosecution.
13. Payments to eligible Authorized Claimants will be made only if the Court approves the Settlement, after any
appeals are resolved, and after the completion of all claims processing.
14. PLEASE NOTE: As set forth in the Plan of Allocation, each Authorized Claimant shall receive his, her, or
its pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund. If the prorated payment to any Authorized Claimant calculates to less than
$10.00, it will not be included in the calculation, and no distribution will be made to that Authorized Claimant.
15. If you have questions concerning the Claim Form, or need additional copies of the Claim Form or the Notice,
you may contact the Claims Administrator, A.B. Data, Ltd., at the above address, by email at
info@CerenceSecuritiesLitigation.com, or by toll-free phone at (877) 411-4801, or you can visit the website,
www.CerenceSecuritiesLitigation.com, where copies of the Claim Form and Notice are available for downloading.
16. NOTICE REGARDING ELECTRONIC FILES: Certain claimants with large numbers of transactions may
request, or may be requested, to submit information regarding their transactions in electronic files. To obtain the mandatory
electronic filing requirements and file layout, you may visit the settlement website at www.CerenceSecuritiesLitigation.com
or you may email the Claims Administrator’s electronic filing department at info@CerenceSecuritiesLitigation.com. Any file
not in accordance with the required electronic filing format will be subject to rejection. The complete name of the
beneficial owner of the securities must be entered where called for (see ¶ 8 above). No electronic files will be considered to
have been submitted unless the Claims Administrator issues an email confirming receipt of your submission. Do not assume
that your file has been received until you receive that email. If you do not receive such an email within 10 days of your
submission, you should contact the electronic filing department at info@CerenceSecuritiesLitigation.com to inquire
about your file and confirm it was received.
