had no reason to believe their conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, an action only by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with
the defense or settlement of an action or suit, and only with respect to a matter as to which they shall have acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. No
indemnification shall be made if such person shall have been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that the defendant Indemnitee are

This Registration Statement on Form

(the "Registration Statement") relates to shares of
common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("ICE Stock"), of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Registrant"), outstanding in respect of certain outstanding equity awards with respect to shares of common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Black Knight Stock"), of Black Knight, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Black Knight"), which were assumed by the Registrant and converted into equity awards in respect of shares of ICE Stock in
connection with the Registrant's acquisition of Black Knight, as described below. These equity awards were granted pursuant to the Black Knight, Inc. Amended and Restated 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan").
On September 5, 2023, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 4, 2022 (as amended on March 7, 2023, the
"Merger Agreement"), by and among the Registrant, Black Knight and Sand Merger Sub Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant ("Merger Sub"), Merger Sub merged with and into Black Knight
(the "Merger"), with Black Knight continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant.
The Merger Agreement provides that, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), certain outstanding restricted stock
awards with respect to shares of Black Knight Stock granted under the Plan were converted into restricted stock awards with respect to shares of ICE Stock (the "Assumed RSAs"). The Assumed RSAs are generally subject to the same terms and
conditions as were applicable to the applicable Black Knight restricted stock award immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the number of shares of ICE Stock subject to such equity awards has been adjusted in accordance with the Merger
Agreement and each applicable "Performance Restriction" was deemed satisfied.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") permits a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers,
as well as other employees and individuals (the "Indemnitee"), against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit
or proceeding brought by third parties. The Indemnitee must have acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
had no reason to believe their conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, an action only by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with
the defense or settlement of an action or suit, and only with respect to a matter as to which they shall have acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. No
indemnification shall be made if such person shall have been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that the defendant Indemnitee are
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of liability. Section 10.6 of the Registrant's bylaws provides for indemnification by the Registrant of its directors, senior officers and employees to
the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its charter that a
director or officer of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability (1) for any breach of the
director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) for a director under
Section 174 of the DGCL, (4) for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit, or (5) for an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation. The Registrant's charter
provides for such limitation of liability with respect to directors only.
The Registrant maintains standard policies of insurance under
which coverage is provided (1) to its directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and (2) to it with respect to payments which may be made by us to such officers and
directors pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.

Undertakings.
a.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
1.
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
Registration Statement:
i.
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
ii.
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration
Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
iii.
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided
,
however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.
2.
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective
amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3.
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered
which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
b.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

Table of Contents
c.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
