COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

From time to time, the Partnership may be involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of the Partnership’s business, including without limitation, the investment activities of the Pershing Square Funds. PSCM is subject to regulation, oversight and examination by regulatory agencies in the U.S. and globally that have, or may in the future have, regulatory authority over the Partnership and its business activities. This regulatory environment may result in agency examinations, investigations, litigation and subpoenas, and material costs related to each. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, other than the lawsuit detailed below, there were no known regulatory investigations, claims or litigation against the Partnership.

On February 9, 2026, certain alleged stockholders of HHH, Charter Township of Shelby Fire & Police Retirement System, MVS Marine LLC and Kurtis Solberg (the “Plaintiffs”), filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery against PSCM, PS Holdco and Mr. Ackman (the “Pershing defendants”) and Ben Hakim and certain other directors of HHH (the “HHH director defendants”) captioned Charter Township of Shelby Fire & Police Retirement System v. Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P., C.A. No. 2026-0184-BWD. The lawsuit alleges claims on behalf of a putative class of HHH stockholders and derivatively on behalf of HHH and contends that (i) the HHH Share Purchase Agreement and related transactions amounted to a transfer of control of HHH to the Pershing defendants, (ii) the HHH director defendants breached their fiduciary duties by approving the transaction at an unfair price and (iii) the Pershing defendants aided and abetted those alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. The Plaintiffs also seek a declaratory judgment that the HHH Services Agreement is invalid and unenforceable under the Delaware General Corporation Law. The complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive relief preventing enforcement of the HHH Services Agreement, certain other equitable relief, unspecified damages and an award of costs and disbursements, including attorneys’ fees. The Pershing defendants filed a motion to dismiss on May 1, 2026. The Partnership believes these claims have no merit and intends to contest these claims vigorously. The Partnership cannot reasonably estimate the amount or range of any potential loss, if any, related to these claims. Accordingly, no accrual has been recorded as of March 31, 2026.

Other Contingencies, Risks and Uncertainties

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the Partnership may enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification provisions. The Partnership’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as any such exposure involves possible future claims that may be, but have not yet been made against the Partnership, based on events which have not yet occurred. However, the Partnership has not had prior material claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and believes the risk of material loss to be remote and therefore, no liability has been recorded. Other than as disclosed above and in Note 6, there were no other commitments or contingencies as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
