	Re:	Initial Public Offering


 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This letter (this “Letter Agreement”)
is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) by and
between Concord Acquisition Corp III, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
and Cowen and Company, LLC, as the representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named
therein (each an “Underwriter” and collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to
an underwritten initial public offering (the “Public Offering”), of up to 28,750,000 of the Company’s
units (including up to 3,750,000 units that may be purchased to cover the Underwriters’ option to purchase additional units, if
any) (the “Units”), each comprised of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001
per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”).
Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to
adjustment. The Units will be sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the “Prospectus”)
filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Certain capitalized terms
used herein are defined in paragraph 11 hereof.


 


In order to induce the Company and the Underwriters
to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Concord Sponsor Group III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”),
CA2 Co-Investment LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cowen Investments” and together with the Sponsor,
the “Holders”), and the other undersigned persons (each such other undersigned persons, an “Insider”
and collectively, the “Insiders”), each hereby agrees, severally but not jointly, with the Company as follows:


 


1. The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider
agree that if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business
Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any Shares owned by it, him or her in favor of any proposed Business Combination (including
any proposals recommended by the Company’s Board of Directors in connection with such Business Combination) and (ii) not redeem
any Shares owned by it, him or her in connection with such stockholder approval. If the Company seeks to consummate a proposed Business
Combination by engaging in a tender offer, the Sponsor, Cowen Investment and each Insider agrees that it, he or she will not sell or tender
any Shares owned by it, him or her in connection therewith.


 


2. The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider
agree that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering
(or up to 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination,
as described in more detail in the Prospectus), or such later period as may be approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance
with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider shall take
all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably
possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the shares of Class
A Common Stock sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the “Offering Shares”), at a per share price,
payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the
Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and less up to
$100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely
extinguish all Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if
any) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining
stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations
under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the other requirements of applicable law. The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and
each Insider agree to not propose any amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify
the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business
Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within 18 months
from the closing of the Public Offering (or up to 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering if the Company extends the period
of time to consummate a Business Combination, as described in more detail in the Prospectus) or (B) with respect to any other provision
relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides its Public Stockholders
with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per share price, payable in cash, equal
to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not
previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding
Offering Shares.


 






    


     


    

 


The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider
acknowledge that it, he or she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any
other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares
held by it. The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider hereby further waive, with respect to any Shares held by it, him or her, if
any, any redemption rights it, he or she may have in connection with (x) the consummation of a Business Combination, including, without
limitation, any such rights available in the context of a stockholder vote to approve such Business Combination or in the context of a
tender offer made by the Company to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock and (y) a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the
Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation
to allow redemptions in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the
Company has not consummated its initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering (or up to 24 months
from the closing of the Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, as described in
more detail in the Prospectus) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business
Combination activity (although the Sponsor, Cowen Investments and the Insiders shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights
with respect to any Offering Shares it or they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the
date of the closing of the Public Offering (or up to 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering if the Company extends the period
of time to consummate a Business Combination, as described in more detail in the Prospectus)).


 


3. Without limiting Cowen Investments’ obligations
under paragraph 7 hereof, during the period commencing on the date of commencement of sales of the Public Offering and ending 180 days
after such date, Cowen Investments shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate any of its Founder Shares or Private Placement
Warrants (or any shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants), or subject any of such securities to any hedging,
short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of such securities, except as
provided in FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), which such restrictions shall not be subject to release or waiver, with or without the consent of the
Representatives, during the period commencing on the date of commencement of sales of the Public Offering and ending 180 days after such
date. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 7(a) and (b) below, during the period commencing on the date of commencement
of sales of the Public Offering and ending 180 days after such date, the Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider shall not, without
the prior written consent of the Representatives, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase,
purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly
or indirectly, or file with, or submit to, the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), relating to any Units, shares of Class A Common Stock, Founder Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into,
or exercisable, or exchangeable for, any Units, shares of Class A Common Stock, Founder Shares, or Warrants, or publicly disclose the
intention to undertake any of the foregoing, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any
of the economic consequences of ownership of any Units, shares of Class A Common Stock, Founder Shares, or Warrants or any such other
securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of units or such other securities,
in cash or otherwise; provided, however, that the foregoing does not apply to the forfeiture of any Founder Shares pursuant
to their terms or any transfer of Founder Shares to any current or future independent director of the company (as long as such current
or future independent director transferee is subject to this Letter Agreement or executes an agreement substantially identical to the
terms of this Letter Agreement, as applicable to directors and officers at the time of such transfer; and as long as, to the extent any
Section 16 reporting obligation is triggered as a result of such transfer, any related Section 16 filing includes a practical explanation
as to the nature of the transfer). Each of the Insiders and the Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the effective date of any
release or waiver, of the restrictions set forth in this paragraph 3 or paragraph 7 below, the Company may announce the impending release
or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of the release or waiver.
The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (i) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of securities that
is not for consideration and (ii) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Letter Agreement
to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.


 






    


     


    

 


4. In the event of the liquidation of the Trust
Account, the Sponsor (which for purposes of clarification shall not extend to any other stockholders, members or managers of the Sponsor)
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including,
but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) to which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any
third party (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the
Company or (ii) a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement (a “Target”);
provided, however, that such indemnification of the Company by the Sponsor shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure
that such claims by a third party for services rendered (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm)
or products sold to the Company or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.20 per Offering
Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Offering Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due
to reductions in the value of the trust assets as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, 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 the Company’s indemnity of the Underwriters against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In the event that any such executed waiver is deemed
to be unenforceable against such third party, the Sponsor shall not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party
claims. The Sponsor shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company
if, within 15 days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Sponsor, the Sponsor notifies the Company in writing that it
shall undertake such defense.


 


5. (a) To the extent that the Underwriters do not
exercise their option to purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 Units within 45 days from the date of the Prospectus (and as further described
in the Prospectus), (x) the Sponsor agrees that it shall forfeit, at no cost, a number of Founder Shares in the aggregate equal to 876,136
multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 3,750,000 minus the number of Units purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise
of their option to purchase additional Units and (ii) the denominator of which is 3,750,000 and (y) Cowen Investments agrees that it shall
forfeit, at no cost, a number of Founder Shares in the aggregate equal to 61,364 multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which
is 3,750,000 minus the number of Units purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their option to purchase additional Units and
(ii) the denominator of which is 3,750,000. All references in this Letter Agreement to Founder Shares of the Company being forfeited shall
take effect as a contribution of such Founder Shares to the Company’s capital as a matter of Delaware law. The forfeiture will be
adjusted to the extent that the option to purchase additional Units is not exercised in full by the Underwriters so that the number of
Founder Shares will equal an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares after the Public Offering. The Initial
Stockholders further agree that to the extent that the size of the Public Offering is increased or decreased, the Company will effect
a capitalization or stock repurchase or redemption, as applicable, immediately prior to the consummation of the Public Offering in such
amount as to maintain the number of Founder Shares at 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares upon the consummation
of the Public Offering. In connection with such increase or decrease in the size of the Public Offering, then (A) the references
to 3,750,000 in the numerator and denominator of the formula in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be changed to a number equal
to 15.0% of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units issued in the Public Offering, (B) the references to 876,136
and 61,364 in the formula set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be adjusted to, respectively, the total number of Founder
Shares that the Sponsor would have to return to the Company in order for the number of Founder Shares that the Sponsor owns (together
with the Insiders) to equal an aggregate of approximately 18.66% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares after the Public
Offering and the total number of Founder Shares that Cowen Investments would have to return to the Company in order for the number of
Founder Shares that Cowen Investments owns to equal an aggregate of approximately 1.34% of the Company’s issued and outstanding
Shares after the Public Offering.


   






    


     


    

 


(b) If, in connection with the closing of a Business
Combination, the Sponsor agrees to forfeit any Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants (or any shares of Class
A Common Stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants) to the Company at no cost or subject its Founder Shares,
Sponsor Loan Warrants or Private Placement Warrants (or any shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants or
Sponsor Loan Warrants) to contractual terms or restrictions, convert its Founder Shares into other securities or contractual rights or
otherwise modify the terms of its Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants(each a “Sponsor Modification”),
then Cowen Investments agrees to forfeit, subject, convert or modify its Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants
(or any shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants) on a pro rata basis and on
the same terms as the Sponsor, and hereby grants to the Company and any representative designated by the Company without further action
by Cowen Investments a limited irrevocable power of attorney to effect such forfeiture or Sponsor Modification on behalf of Cowen Investments,
which power of attorney shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.


 


6. The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider
hereby agree and acknowledge that: (i) the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by such
Sponsor, Cowen Investments or Insider of its, his or her obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7(a) and 7(b) of this Letter Agreement
(ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek injunctive
relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.


 


7. (a) The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each
Insider agree that it, he or she shall not Transfer (as defined below) any Founder Shares (or shares of Class A Common Stock issuable
upon conversion thereof) until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and
(B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization
or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A Common
Stock for cash, securities or other property or (y) if the last reported sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00
per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within
any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination (the “Founder
Shares Lock-Up Period”).


 


(b) The Sponsor, Cowen Investments and each Insider
agree that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants, or any shares of Class A Common Stock
issued or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants, until 30 days after the
completion of a Business Combination.


  


(c) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in
paragraphs 7(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants, Sponsor Loan Warrants and shares of Class A Common
Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Private Placement Warrants or Sponsor Loan Warrants or the Founder Shares
and that are held by the Sponsor, Cowen Investments or any Insider or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this
paragraph 7(c)), are permitted (a) to the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Company’s
officers or directors, any members of the Holders, or any affiliates of the Holders, (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member
of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family
or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution
upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales
or transfers made in connection with the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination at prices no greater than the price
at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to the Company’s completion
of an initial Business Combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of the State of Delaware or the Sponsor’s limited liability company
agreement, as amended, upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (h) in the event of the Company’s completion of a liquidation, merger,
stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange
their Class A Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Company’s completion of an initial Business
Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e), these permitted transferees must enter into
a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions and other applicable restrictions in this Letter
Agreement.
