Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Agreement.

Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement

On June 30, 2025 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), in conjunction with the Offering (as defined below), Tempus AI, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Ares Capital Corporation, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), and ACF Finco I LP, as revolving agent (the “Revolving Agent”). The Amendment Agreement amends the terms of that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of September 22, 2022 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Amendment Effective Date, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and as amended by the Amendment Agreement, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, the lenders party thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Agent to, among other things, (i) permit the Offering and the related derivative transactions and (ii) provide that the Offering satisfies the junior capital raise requirement set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement. A failure to timely satisfy the junior capital raise requirement would have resulted in a 0.50% per annum increase in the applicable margin from and after January 1, 2026.

Except as noted above, the material terms of the Existing Credit Agreement were not amended. The summary of the material terms of the Credit Agreement in this Item 1.01 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, a conformed copy of which is attached as Annex A to the Amendment Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Indenture and Notes

On July 3, 2025, the Company completed its previously announced private offering (the “Offering”) of $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Notes”), including the exercise in full of the initial purchasers’ over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional $100.0 million principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated July 3, 2025 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee.

The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on July 15, 2030, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Interest on the Notes will accrue at a rate of 0.75% per year from July 3, 2025 and will be payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2026. The Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding April 15, 2030, only upon satisfaction of one or more of the following conditions: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on September 30, 2025 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the Notes on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price (as defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Common Stock and the conversion rate for the Notes on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as set forth in the Indenture. On or after April 15, 2030, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes at their option at any time, regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture.

The conversion rate for the Notes will initially be 11.8778 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $84.19 per share of Common Stock. The initial conversion price of the Notes represents a premium of approximately 32.5% to the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 30, 2025. The conversion rate for the

Notes is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the Notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the Notes for a holder who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period (as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be.

The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to July 20, 2028. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation set forth in the Indenture), at its option, on or after July 20, 2028, if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company redeems less than all the outstanding Notes, at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of, and after giving effect to, delivery of the relevant notice of redemption. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), then, subject to certain conditions and except as set forth in the Indenture, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

The Indenture includes customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the Notes become automatically due and payable. The following events are considered “events of default” under the Indenture:

If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur with respect to the Company, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all of the then outstanding Notes shall automatically become due and payable. If an event of default, other than certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default with respect to the Company, occurs and is continuing, the trustee, by notice to the Company, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the trustee, may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued interest, on all the outstanding Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture provides that, to the extent the Company so elects, the sole remedy for an event of default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture will, for the first 365 days after the occurrence of such an event of default, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the Notes.

The Indenture provides that the Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to, another person (other than any such sale, conveyance, transfer or lease to one or more of the Company’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries), unless: (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if not the Company) is a “qualified successor entity” (as defined in the Indenture) (such qualified successor entity, the “successor entity”) organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and such successor entity (if not the Company) expressly assumes by supplemental indenture all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture; and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture.

A copy of the Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 (including the form of the Notes attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2) and is incorporated herein by reference (and this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document).

Capped Call Transactions

On June 30, 2025, in connection with the pricing of the Notes, and on July 1, 2025, in connection with the exercise in full by the initial purchasers of their over-allotment option to purchase additional Notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with one of the initial purchasers and certain other financial institutions, pursuant to capped call confirmations in substantially the form filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference (and this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Common Stock upon any conversion of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on a cap price initially equal to $111.1950 per share (which represents a premium of 75% over the last reported sale price of the Common Stock of $63.54 per share on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 30, 2025), and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

Proceeds

The Company’s net proceeds from the Offering were approximately $721.7 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and the estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to (i) repay $274.7 million principal amount of senior secured term loans pursuant to the Credit Agreement, plus accrued and unpaid premium and interest, and (ii) pay the approximately $41.8 million cost of the capped call transactions described above. The Company expects to use the remaining net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses or technologies, working capital, operating expenses, capital expenditures and repayment of additional indebtedness.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company offered and sold the Notes to the initial purchasers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and for resale by the initial purchasers to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Company relied on these exemptions from registration based in part on representations made by the initial purchasers in the purchase agreement dated June 30, 2025 by and among the Company and the initial purchasers.

The Notes and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

To the extent that any shares of Common Stock are issued upon conversion of the Notes, they will be issued in transactions anticipated to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) thereof because no commission or other remuneration is expected to be paid in connection with conversion of the Notes and any resulting issuance of shares of Common Stock. Initially, a maximum of 11,803,575 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon conversion of the Notes based on the initial maximum conversion rate of 15.7381 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 30, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the proposed Offering. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

On June 30, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Notes. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
