This is a governance housekeeping filing with no operational or financial read-through. The loss of a major shareholder's board seat removes a potential activist catalyst but is not a negative signal. Monitor for any future 13D filings from the Deason estate or other large holders.

Executive Summary
Conduent filed an 8-K reporting the termination of its Shareholders Agreement with the estate of Darwin A. Deason following his death, and the corresponding departure of board designee Scott Letier. The Audit Committee chair and a key board seat tied to a major shareholder are now vacant, with committee chairs reshuffled. This is a routine governance cleanup triggered by a shareholder's death, not an operational event, but it removes a significant shareholder's direct board influence.
Key Facts
- The Shareholders Agreement with Darwin A. Deason (dated Dec 18, 2018) was terminated following his death on Dec 2, 2025.
- Director Scott Letier, Deason's designee, resigned on Aug 26, 2026, after the Board determined the conditions for his irrevocable resignation were met.
- Letier served as Audit Committee Chair; Michael Fucci was appointed as the new Audit Committee Chair.
- All of the Company's obligations under the Shareholders Agreement are satisfied and the agreement is of no further force and effect.
- The board committees were reconstituted: Audit (Fucci, Van, Demuyakor), Compensation (Fucci, Palu-Hernández, Van, Demuyakor), Governance (Demuyakor, Fucci, Palu-Hernández), Risk (Van, Fucci, Palu-Hernández, Demuyakor).
Financial Impact
No financial impact disclosed. The termination of the Shareholders Agreement and director departure are governance events with no direct financial consideration.
Risk Factors
- Loss of a major shareholder's direct board representation could reduce shareholder alignment.
- Potential for future activist interest if the board is perceived as less accountable without a large holder's designee.
