Registrant. As a result of the Reorganization, the Predecessor became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant. In the Reorganization, each outstanding share of common stock of the Predecessor, par value $1.00 per share, other than treasury
shares (which were cancelled), was converted automatically into one share of common stock of the Registrant, par value $1.00 per share. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;). As the successor issuer, the shares of the Registrant&#146;s common stock are deemed to be registered under Section&nbsp;12(b) of the Exchange Act and will trade on the New
York Stock Exchange under the symbol &#147;CR.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with the Reorganization, (i)&nbsp;the Registrant assumed the Predecessor&#146;s
obligations, and agreed to perform all obligations of the Predecessor under, the Assumed Plans, (ii)&nbsp;the shares of common stock of the Predecessor remaining available for awards under the 2018 Incentive Plan were automatically adjusted upon the
Reorganization into an identical number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s common stock, and (iii)&nbsp;all awards previously granted under the Assumed Plans that were outstanding as of the Reorganization were automatically adjusted into awards for
the identical number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s common stock and otherwise without any change to the form, terms or conditions of the awards. </P>

corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or

person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation&#146;s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful. Section&nbsp;145 also provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of such corporation,
under the same conditions, except that such indemnification is limited to expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person, and except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if such
person is adjudged to be liable to such corporation. Where an officer or director of a corporation is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or any claim, issue or matter therein,
the corporation must indemnify that person against the expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) which such officer or director actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. </P>

&#147;Predecessor&#148;), in connection with the reorganization of the Predecessor whereby the Registrant replaced the Predecessor as the new publicly-traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (the &#147;Reorganization&#148;). Pursuant to the
Post-Effective Amendments, the Registrant is registering shares of Registrant Common Stock to be issued from time to time under the Amended and Restated Crane Co. Savings and Investment Plan, the Crane Co. 2007

2022 and was effected through a merger pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February&nbsp;28, 2022, by and among the Predecessor, the Registrant and Crane Transaction Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and, as of
immediately prior to the consummation of such merger, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant. As a result of the Reorganization, the Predecessor became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant. In the Reorganization, each outstanding share
of common stock of the Predecessor, par value $1.00 per share, other than treasury shares (which were cancelled), was converted automatically into one share of Registrant Common Stock. Following the Reorganization, the Registrant is the successor
issuer to the Predecessor pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;), and Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12g-3(a)</FONT> under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
&#147;Exchange Act&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with the Reorganization, the Registrant assumed the Predecessor&#146;s obligations, and agreed to perform all
obligations of the Predecessor under, the Predecessor Plans. At the consummation of the Reorganization, the Predecessor Plans were each amended and restated in connection with the Reorganization to effectuate the Registrant&#146;s assumption of such
plans and, among other things, to provide that references to the Predecessor be changed to refer to the Registrant and references to the Predecessor&#146;s common stock be changed to refer to the Registrant&#146;s common stock. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with paragraph (d)&nbsp;of Rule 414 under the Securities Act, the Registrant, as the successor registrant to Predecessor, hereby expressly
adopts the Initial Registration Statements as its own registration statements (except as specifically amended by the Post-Effective Amendments) for all purposes of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. The Post-Effective Amendments shall become
effective immediately upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;Commission&#148;) pursuant to Rule 462 under the Securities Act. Predecessor paid all registration fees at the time of filing the Initial Registration
Statements. </P>
