 the Cayman Islands as an exempted company. We were incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to as our initial business combination. On January 22, 2024, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement, by and among CSLM, CSLM Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of CSLM (“Merger Sub”), and Fusemachines Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Fusemachines” or the “ Target”) (as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “ Merger Agreement”). Our Existing Charter provides for the return of the IPO proceeds held in the Trust Account to the holders of Public Shares if there is no qualifying business combination(s) consummated on or before the Current Termination Date, assuming that the time to complete a business combination is not extended as provided in the Existing Charter. The Company’s Existing Charter provides that the Sponsor Company has the right to cause the Company to extend the period of time to consummate a business combination (the “Combination Period”) on a month-to-monthbasis until July 18, 2025 by depositing $30,000 into the Trust account per Extension Period. As of the date of this proxy statement, the Company has until July 18, 2025 (the ” Current Termination Date”) to complete its Proposed Business Combination. The purpose of the Extension Proposal is to allow the Company more time to complete its proposed business combination (the “ Proposed Business Combination”). 3

Our board of directors currently believes that there will not be sufficient time before the Current Termination Date to complete its Proposed Business Combination and hold a general meeting at which to conduct a vote for shareholder approval of the Proposed Business Combination. Accordingly, our board of directors has determined it is in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders to extend the termination date from the Current Termination Date to the Extended Date. If the Extension Proposal is not approved at the General Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof and we do not consummate a business combination by the Current Termination Date, assuming that the time to complete a business combination is not extended as provided in the Existing Charter, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the
