 cause of action seeking to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the
validity of the Proposed Charter or the Proposed Bylaws (as each may be amended from time to time, including any right, obligation, or remedy thereunder), (v) any action, suit or proceeding as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the
Chancery Court, or (vi) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against Pubco or any current or former director, officer or other employee of Pubco governed by the internal affairs doctrine or otherwise related to Pubco’s internal
affairs, in all cases to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person or entity purchasing or
otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of Pubco will be deemed to have notice of and consented to the forum provisions in the Proposed Charter. The Proposed Charter further will provide that unless Pubco consents in
writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for the resolutions of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising
under the Securities Act. This provision in the Proposed Charter will not apply to any claim or action arising under the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States have exclusive jurisdiction;
however, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. However, it is possible that a
court could find Pubco’s forum selection provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Although CSLM believes this provision will benefit Pubco by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to
which it applies, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against Pubco’s directors and officers.

Conflicts of Interest

Delaware law permits corporations to adopt provisions renouncing any interest or expectancy in certain opportunities that are
presented to the corporation or its officers, directors or stockholders. The Proposed Charter, to the maximum extent permitted from time to time by Delaware law, renounces any interest or expectancy that Pubco has in, or right to be offered an
opportunity to participate in, specified business opportunities that are from time to time presented to a member of the Pubco Board who is not an employee of Pub
