 A common stock on the first day of each offering period and applicable exercise date of each purchase period. Accordingly, the actual number of shares of Post-Closing Company Class A common stock that would be purchased by any individual under the ESPP in the future is not determinable. We have not previously sponsored an employee stock purchase plan, and, therefore, the number of shares which would have been received by or allocated to named executive officers, all current executive officers as a group, and all other current employees who may participate in the ESPP as a group are not determinable. Non-employee directors are not eligible to participate in the ESPP. As of , 2025, the closing price of a CCIX Class A ordinary share was $ .

Registration with the SEC

The Post-Closing Company intends to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the issuance of Post-Closing Company Class A common stock under the ESPP with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the Post-Closing Company becomes eligible to use such form, subject to the prior approval of the ESPP by the CCIX shareholders.

Vote Required

The approval of the ESPP proposal requires an ordinary resolution, being the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by the holders of outstanding CCIX Ordinary Shares at the extraordinary general meeting by attendance via the virtual meeting website, in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, voting together as a single class. Abstentions will be counted in connection with the determination of whether a valid quorum is established, but will have no effect on the ESPP proposal.

The ESPP proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the other condition precedent proposals. Therefore, if any of such other proposals are not approved, the stock issuance proposal will have no effect, even if approved by the requisite holders of CCIX Ordinary Shares. If any of those proposals are not approved at the extraordinary general meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof), then unless certain conditions in the Merger Agreement are waived by the applicable parties to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement may be terminated and the business combination may not be consummated.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor has agreed, and CCIX’s officers and directors intend, to vote the CCIX Ordinary Shares owned by them in favor of the ESPP proposal.
