 2024 (the “Existing Registration Rights Agreement”), will be amended and restated, and CCIX, Sponsor and certain persons and entities receiving Post-Closing Company common stock in connection with the Merger (the “New Holders” and, together with Sponsor, the “Reg Rights Holders”) will be parties to an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit E to the Merger Agreement attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Post-Closing Company will agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) file with the SEC (at the Post-Closing Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of certain securities held by or issuable to the Reg Rights Holders within 15 business days after the Closing (the “Resale Registration Statement”) and (2) cause the Resale Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, but in no event later than the 105th calendar day (or 165th calendar day if the SEC notifies the Post-Closing Company that it will “review” the Resale Registration Statement) after the Closing Date. In certain circumstances, the Reg Rights Holders may demand in the aggregate up to three underwritten offerings and will be entitled to customary piggyback registration rights.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the New Holders have agreed not to transfer their respective shares for a period of 180 days following the Closing Date; however, such transfer restrictions terminate as to (1) 50% of such holder’s shares upon the earlier of 180 days after the Closing and the date on which the VWAP of the Post-Closing Company Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share during any 15 trading days within any 180 consecutive trading day period following the Closing, and (2) 50% of such holder’s shares upon the earlier of 360 days after the Closing and the date on which the VWAP of the Post-Closing Company Class A common stock equals or exceeds $14.00 per share during any 15 trading days within any 360 consecutive trading day period following the Closing, subject to certain exceptions to the termination of transfer restrictions with respect to Earnout Shares or held directly or indirectly by certain founder executives of PlusAI. Similar transfer restrictions will apply to the shares of
