 by this limitation on redemption.

There is no guarantee that a shareholder’s decision whether to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account will put the shareholder in a better future economic position.

We can give no assurance as to the price at which a shareholder may be able to sell its public shares in the future following the completion of the business combination or any alternative business combination. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the business combination, may cause an

increase in our share price, and may result in a lower value realized now than a shareholder of CCIX might realize in the future had the shareholder not redeemed its shares. Similarly, if a shareholder does not redeem its shares, the shareholder will bear the risk of ownership of the public shares after the consummation of any initial business combination, and there can be no assurance that a shareholder can sell its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. A shareholder should consult the shareholder’s own tax and/or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect his, her or its individual situation.

Shareholders of CCIX who wish to redeem their CCIX public shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account must comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline. If shareholders fail to comply with the redemption requirements specified in this proxy statement/prospectus, they will not be entitled to redeem their CCIX public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account.

Shareholders electing to redeem their CCIX public shares will receive their pro rata portion of the trust account less permitted withdrawals, calculated as of two business days prior to the anticipated consummation of the business combination. Please see the section entitled “Extraordinary general meeting of CCIX — Redemption Rights” of this proxy statement/prospectus for additional information on how to exercise your redemption rights.

If, despite CCIX’s compliance with the proxy rules, a shareholder fails to receive CCIX proxy materials, such shareholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem its CCIX public shares. In addition, the proxy materials that CCIX is furnishing to holders of CCIX public shares in connection with the business combination describes the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem CCIX public shares. In the event that a shareholder fails to comply with these procedures, its CCIX
