CCIX Founder Shares

CCIX Founder Shares are CCIX Class B Ordinary Shares acquired by the Sponsor in connection with the CCIX IPO that the Sponsor will cause to be converted into CCIX Class A Ordinary Shares immediately prior to the Domestication on a one-for-one basis. Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Agreement, the Sponsor and the Insiders, which constitute a majority of the holders of CCIX Founder Shares, have agreed to waive any adjustment to the initial conversion ratio in connection with the business combination and, as a result, the CCIX Class B Ordinary Shares will convert into CCIX Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis at the Closing.

The approval of the business combination proposal requires an ordinary resolution, being the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by holders of outstanding CCIX Ordinary Shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting by attendance via the virtual meeting website or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, voting together as a single class. Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Agreement, the Sponsor and the Insiders have agreed to vote their CCIX Ordinary Shares, including any CCIX public shares held by them as of the CCIX record date, in favor of the business combination proposals and the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Agreement, if the business combination is not consummated, the CCIX Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions described therein.
