 of how CSLM’s Public Shareholders vote.

The Sponsor and each director and officer of CSLM have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and
the transactions contemplated thereby, in the case of the Sponsor, subject also to the

90

terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement. The Sponsor, which includes among its members each of the directors and officers of CSLM, owns 4,743,750 Founder Shares,
including the sole outstanding CSLM Class B Ordinary Share. As a result, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Insiders own approximately 78% of the issued and outstanding CSLM Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, no votes of holders
of Public Shares will be required to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Merger Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposal, the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposals, the Equity
Incentive Plan Proposal, and, if presented, the Adjournment Proposal even if all other outstanding shares are voted against such proposals.

We may be forced to close the Business Combination even if we determine it is no longer in our shareholders’ best interest.

Our Public Shareholders are protected from a material adverse event of Fusemachines arising between the date of the Merger
Agreement and the Closing primarily by the right to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account that are available for distribution to Public Shareholders, calculated as of two business days prior to
the scheduled vote on the Business Combination Proposal. Accordingly, if a material adverse event were to occur after approval of the Condition Precedent Proposals at the extraordinary general meeting, we may be forced to close the Business
Combination even if we determine it is no longer in our shareholders’ best interest to do so (as a result of such material adverse event) which could have a significant negative impact on our business, financial condition or results of
operations.

CSLM’s ability to complete an initial business combination with Fusemachines may be impacted if such initial business combination is subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations and review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”), and ultimately prohibited.

The Sponsor is a Cayman Islands exempted limited liability company and is likely to be considered a “foreign person”
under the regulations administered by CFIUS. As such, an initial business combination with Fusemachines may be
