Recommendation to CCIX Shareholders

The CCIX Board believes that the business combination proposal and the other proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting are fair to, and in the best interests of, CCIX and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that its shareholders vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the business combination proposal, “FOR” the domestication proposal, “FOR” the organizational documents proposal, “FOR” the advisory organizational documents proposal, “FOR” the stock issuance proposal, “FOR” the incentive plan proposal, “FOR” the ESPP proposal, “FOR” each of the director nominees named in the director election proposal and, if presented, “FOR” the adjournment proposal.

Please see the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain CCIX Persons in the Business Combination” for additional information. The CCIX Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating and negotiating the Transactions and in recommending to CCIX shareholders that they vote in favor of the proposals
