Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

In connection with the closing of the initial public offering (the “Offering”) of Netskope, Inc. (the “Company”) on September 19, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “A&R Certificate of Incorporation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which provided that immediately upon the effectiveness of the filing of the A&R Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary State of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding or held as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, automatically and without further action by any stockholder, was reclassified as, and became, one share of Class B common stock (the “Reclassification”).

As a result of the Offering and the Reclassification, on September 19, 2025, the Company entered into (i) that certain Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 19, 2025 (the “2028 Notes Supplemental Indenture”), by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (“US Bank”), as trustee, to the Indenture dated as of December 22, 2022 (as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 25, 2025, the “2028 Notes Original Indenture” and as further supplemented by the 2028 Notes Supplemental Indenture, the “2028 Notes Indenture”), by and among such parties; and (ii) that certain First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 19, 2025 (the “2029 Notes Supplemental Indenture” and together with the 2028 Notes Supplemental Indenture, the “Supplemental Indentures”), by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and US Bank, as trustee, to the Indenture dated as of September 30, 2024 (the “2029 Notes Original Indenture” and as supplemented by the 2029 Notes Supplemental Indenture, the “2029 Notes Indenture” and together with the 2028 Notes Indenture, the “Indentures”), by and among such parties pursuant to Section 5.09(A) of the Indenture to which such Supplemental Indenture relates. The 2028 Notes Indenture governs the 3.75% Convertible Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2027 (as amended to extend the maturity date to 2028, the “2028 Notes”) and the 2029 Notes Indenture governs the 3.00% Convertible Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes” and together with the 2028 Notes, the “Notes”). Each Supplemental Indenture provides, among other things, that the Reclassification constitutes a Common Stock Change Event (as defined in the Indenture to which such Supplemental Indenture relates), the subsequent conversion of Notes under such Indenture will be made in the manner set forth in Section 5.09 of such Indenture, and subsequent adjustments to the Conversion Rate (as defined in such Indenture) pursuant to Section 5.05(A) of such Indenture will be made in a manner consistent with Section 5.09 of such Indenture, and the Reference Property (as defined in such Indenture) and Reference Property Unit (as defined in such Indenture) with respect to the Common Stock Change Event that occurred on the Closing Date shall consist of Class B common stock of the Company and one share thereof, respectively.

The foregoing descriptions of the Supplemental Indentures do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Supplemental Indentures, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Events.
