 in order to gain an
advantage with respect to a claim against CSLM’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, CSLM’s management will
perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver only if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to
us than any alternative. Examples of possible instances where CSLM may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be
significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where CSLM is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to
waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. Upon redemption of CSLM’s Public Shares, if
CSLM has not completed CSLM’s initial business combination within the required time period, or upon the exercise of a Redemption Right in connection with CSLM’s initial business combination, CSLM will be required to provide for payment of
claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years following redemption. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the
extent any claims by a third party (other than CSLM’s independent auditors) for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which CSLM has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of
funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share, due to reductions
in value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to
any claims under CSLM’s indemnity of the underwriters of
