Vista raised a record $2.7 billion of fresh capital for the deal, according to the people, who asked not to be named because the transaction is private. It turned to other vintages of its flagship private equity funds — Vista Equity Partners VII and Vista Equity Partners VIII — to commit about $2.2 billion to the continuation fund, some of the people said.

Commanders Owner Makes $500K Investment in Jayden Daniels
Commanders Owner Makes $500K Investment in Jayden Daniels originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Washington Commanders already got their money's worth when they drafted quarterback Jayden Daniels No. 2 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. His phenomenal rookie season finished with a 12-5 record, Offensive Rookie of the Year award, and a playoff run to the NFC Championship Game - enough to get fans in the nation's capital overflowing with excitement for the future of their franchise. Advertisement Now owner Josh Harris is making another investment into his young star. At Fanatics Fest, Harris purchased a one-of-one Daniels trading card for $500K. For all the collectors out there, the card was a Panini Black Prizm Finite that was graded at a 9.5 out of 10. Harris made the deal with the card's original owner with Daniels in attendance. The fan also was gifted a signed jersey in the exchange. According to Fanatics Collect, the card is officially the most expensive Jayden Daniels card ever sold. The card was originally found by Joey Carrion, the owner of a sports card store in New York. He reportedly pulled the card in a box that costed $36. Advertisement Serena Williams' husband and founder of Reddit - and long-time Commanders fan - had put a bounty on the card worth $200K, but it was sold to Florida-based store Rothcards, who then sold it to Harris on Sunday. Just like any investment, Daniels' performance will continue to shoot the price for the rare card through the roof. Offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury can't say enough good things about the new cornerstone of the Commanders franchise. He's excited to watch Daniels' develop even more this season. "You can see the comfort level was there this year," Kingsbury said earlier this offseason. "I mean, just watching him move around, he's not thinking as much, he's playing fast and letting his natural gifts kind of take over, and that's what we want to see. So, I expect him to take a big jump." Advertisement Last year as a rookie, Daniels amassed nearly 4,500 all-purpose yards and 31 total touchdowns. In just two years since purchasing the franchise, Harris - who has a $10 billion net worth, according to Forbes - has orchestrated one of the best turnarounds in sports. He now takes ownership of one of the most valuable pieces of NFL memorabilia on the market. We get the indication that if Daniels keeps this pace throughout his career, his true value to the Commanders organization will be infinitely greater than his trading card ever was.

Mediator In Trump's CBS Lawsuit Proposes $20 Million Settlement
The mediator in President Donald Trump's lawsuit against CBS and 60 Minutes has proposed a settlement worth $20 million, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal, just days after court documents filed by the network called the action 'meritless' and an attack on the First Amendment. The proposal is said to include a $17 million donation to Trump's presidential foundation or museum and $3 million in legal fees and public service announcements on Paramount Global-owned networks to fight antisemitism, the WSJ said, citing people familiar with the situation. The situation is still fluid. Most recently, the Trump team had had asked CBS for a $25 million settlement and an apology. It's not clear if a mea culpa is part of the latest proposal.

The suit and settlement talks have unfolded with a proposed sale of Paramount Global to Skydance Media under review by the FCC, which is led by Trump appointee and loyalist Brendan Carr. U.S. Senators, California lawmakers and public interest groups have threatened to sue Paramount under anti-bribery statutes if the company agrees to settle and controlling shareholder Shari Redstone is concerned about potential legal liability. Par recently brought in law firm Gibson Dunn to assess whether it could offer more than $15 million without putting its directors and top executives at risk of future litigation or criminal charges. Late last year. Disney's ABC agreed to contribute $15 million to Donald Trump's presidential foundation and museum as part of a settlement reached in Trump defamation case against the network. Last week, Trump praised Skydance CEO David Ellison, telling reporters 'Ellison's great and 'he'll do a great job with it,' referring to the merger. Ellison's father, billionaire Oracle co-founder and CEO Larry Ellison, was a big supporter of Trump in last year's election. A statement to Deadline from a Trump attorney today, however, said the President 'is committed to holding those who traffic in fake news, hoaxes, and lies to account. CBS and Paramount targeted the President in an attempt to harm his reputation while committing the worst kind of election interference and fraud in the closing days of the most important presidential election in history. President Trump will pursue this vital matter to its just and rightful conclusion.' A Paramount spokesperson declined to comment.
