 capital requirements. As of the date of this proxy statement, no such loans have been made, but loans may be made after the date of this proxy statement. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the loans will not be repaid and will be       
 forgiven except to the extent there are funds available to CSLM outside of the Trust Account. The Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor have issued to the Company working capital loans up to the amount of $4,000,000. In the event that the Proposed

 forfeited.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |

Additionally, if the Extension Proposal and Trust Amendment Proposal are approved and the Company consummates the Proposed Business Combination, the officers and directors may have additional interests that would be described in the proxy statement for such transaction. 27
