PLEASE VOTE ON THE ENCLOSED GOLD UNIVERSAL PROXY CARD TODAY
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
Carronade Capital Master, LP (“Carronade”), Carronade Capital GP, LLC (“Carronade GP”), Carronade Capital Management, LP (“Carronade Management”), Carronade Capital Management GP, LLC (“Carronade Management GP”) and Dan Gropper (collectively, “Carronade Capital” or “we”) are significant investors in Cannae Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“CNNE,” “Cannae” or the “Company”), beneficially owning an aggregate of 3,262,648 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company. We believe meaningful change to the composition of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is required to ensure that the Company is being run in a manner consistent with shareholders’ best interests. Accordingly, we have nominated four (4) highly qualified, independent director nominees for election at the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (including any adjournments or postponements thereof and any meeting which may be called in lieu thereof, the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting is scheduled to be held virtually via live webcast at www.cesonlineservices.com/cnne25_vm on December 12, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time.
Carronade filed its definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 28, 2025 (the “Carronade Proxy Statement”). The Company subsequently filed its definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting with the SEC on November 5, 2025 (the “CNNE Proxy Statement”). This Proxy Supplement discloses certain information about the Annual Meeting included in the CNNE Definitive Proxy Statement that had not been publicly available at the time we filed the Carronade Proxy Statement. Except as specifically modified or supplemented by the information contained in this Proxy Supplement, all information set forth in the Carronade Proxy Statement remains applicable. All capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Carronade Proxy Statement. This Proxy Supplement is dated November 7, 2025, and is first being furnished to shareholders of the Company on or about November 7, 2025. This Proxy Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Carronade Proxy Statement first furnished to shareholders on or about October 28, 2025.
At the Annual Meeting, shareholders will have an opportunity:
| 1. | To elect Carronade Capital’s four (4) director nominees, Mona Aboelnaga, Benjamin C. Duster, IV, Dennis A. Prieto and Chérie L. Schaible (each, a “Carronade Nominee” and, together, the “Carronade Nominees”), each to serve for a three-year term ending at the Company’s 2028 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; |
| 2. | To approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the 2024 compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers (“say-on-pay”); |
| 1 |
| 3. | To ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2025 fiscal year; |
| 4. | To approve an amendment and restatement of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to declassify the Board (the “Declassification Proposal”); |
| 5. | If properly presented at the Annual Meeting, to consider and act on a shareholder proposal to engage an investment banker (the “Shareholder Investment Banker Proposal”); and |
| 6. | To transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponements thereof. |
These items of business are more fully described in the Carronade Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on October 28, 2025.
According to the CNNE Proxy Statement, the Annual Meeting will be held virtually via live webcast at www.cesonlineservices.com/cnne25_vm on December 12, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. In order to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting, you must pre-register at www.cesonlineservices.com/cnne25_vm no later than 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, on December 11, 2025. We encourage you to access the Annual Meeting before the start time of 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, on December 12, 2025. Please allow ample time for online check-in, which will begin at 9:30 a.m. Pacific Time, on December 12, 2025. Additional information regarding how you can attend the 2025 Annual Meeting is included in the Carronade Proxy Statement.
According to the CNNE Proxy Statement, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting is October 30, 2025 (the “Record Date”). Shareholders who own shares of Common Stock as of the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. According to the CNNE Proxy Statement, as of the Record Date there were 49,965,406 shares of Common Stock outstanding. The CNNE Proxy Statement further discloses that based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date, shares representing 24,982,704 votes must be present at the Annual Meeting, virtually or by proxy, to constitute a quorum.
As of the date hereof, Carronade Capital and the other Participants collectively beneficially own an aggregate of 3,275,778.329 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 6.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and intend to vote all such shares “FOR” the Carronade Nominees, “AGAINST” the Company’s advisory proposal to approve the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, “FOR” the Company’s proposal to ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, “FOR” the Declassification Proposal, and “FOR” the Shareholder Investment Banker Proposal.
As of the date hereof, Carronade directly beneficially owns 3,076,999 shares of Common Stock.

According to the CNNE Proxy Statement, shareholder proposals submitted for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2026 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act must be received by the Company’s Secretary no later than July 8, 2026. Any such proposal must also comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8.
According to the CNNE Proxy Statement, the Bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for shareholders who wish to present a proposal or director nomination before the 2026 Annual Meeting without inclusion of such matter in the Company’s proxy statement. Under the Bylaws, such notice must be received by the Secretary of the Company no later than July 8, 2026; provided, however, that in the event that the 2026 Annual Meeting is called for a date that is not within 30 days before or after the anniversary date of this year’s Annual Meeting, notice by the shareholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting was first made. Any such notice must contain the information required by the Bylaws.
In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements, to comply with the universal proxy rules, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in reliance on the SEC’s universal proxy rules for director nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than October 13, 2026; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting has changed by more than 30 calendar days from this year’s Annual Meeting date, then notice must be provided by the later of 60 calendar days prior to the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting or the 10th calendar day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting is first made by the Company. Any such notice must also comply with the additional requirements of Rule 14a-19(b).
In light of additional purchases of Common Stock made by certain of the Participants since the filing of the Carronade Proxy Statement, the Schedule I attached to this Proxy Supplement supplements the information set forth in Schedule I attached to the Carronade Proxy Statement.
THIS SOLICITATION IS BEING MADE BY CARRONADE CAPITAL AND NOT ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OR MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY.
