The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 725,000 CCIX private placement units, generating gross proceeds of $7,250,000 ($10.00 per CCIX private placement unit), simultaneously with the consummation of the CCIX IPO. Of the proceeds from the sale of the CCIX private placement units, $3,941,250 was added to the proceeds from the CCIX IPO held in the trust account. The CCIX private placement shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $ based upon the closing price of $ per share on Nasdaq on , 2025, the record date for the extraordinary general meeting. The CCIX private placement shares will become worthless if CCIX does not consummate a business combination by the completion window.

Michael Klein, a director of CCIX, and the controlling shareholder of M. Klein Associates, Inc., which is the managing member of the Sponsor, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities of CCIX owned by Sponsor. For more information about our officers’ and directors’ economic interests in the Transactions, see the section entitled “ Beneficial Ownership of Securities .”

If CCIX consummates a business combination, on the other hand, CCIX will be liable for all such claims.

The Sponsor and the Insiders will receive material benefits from the completion of an initial business combination and may be incentivized to complete the Transactions rather than liquidate (in which case the Sponsor would lose its entire investment), even if PlusAI is a less favorable target company or the terms of the Transactions are less favorable to CCIX shareholders than an alternative transaction.

The Sponsor has invested an aggregate of $7,275,000 (consisting of $7,250,000 for CCIX private placement units and $25,000 for the CCIX Founder Shares), which means the Sponsor, following the Transactions, may experience a positive rate of return on their investment, even if other CCIX shareholders experience a negative rate of return on their investment.
