Initial Public Offering of Cantor Equity Partners III, Inc.

In November 2020, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 14,375,000 Class B Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On June 6, 2024, the Sponsor surrendered, for no consideration, 9,375,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, which the Issuer cancelled, resulting in the Sponsor owning 5,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares. On June 15, 2025, the Issuer effected a share capitalization, resulting in an increase in the total number of Class B Ordinary Shares owned by the Sponsor from 5,000,000 shares to 5,750,000 shares. On June 25, 2025, the Issuer effected a share capitalization, resulting in an increase in the total number of Class B Ordinary Shares owned by the Sponsor from 5,750,000 shares to 6,900,000 shares.

On June 27, 2025, simultaneously with the consummation of the Issuer's Initial public offering (the "IPO"), the Sponsor purchased 580,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (the "Placement Shares"), at $10.00 per Placement Share, pursuant to a Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement, dated June 25, 2025, by and between the Issuer and the Sponsor (the "Purchase Agreement"), as more fully described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which information is incorporated herein by reference. The Ordinary Shares owned by the Sponsor have been acquired for investment purposes. The Sponsor, Cantor and CFGM may make further acquisitions of the Ordinary Shares from time to time and, subject to certain restrictions, may dispose of any or all of the Ordinary Shares owned by the Sponsor at any time depending on an ongoing evaluation of the investment in such Ordinary Shares, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors. However, such Ordinary Shares are subject to certain lock-up restrictions as further described in Item 6 below.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor has committed to provide up to $1,750,000 to the Issuer to fund the Issuer's expenses relating to investigating and selecting a target business and other working capital requirements prior to the Issuer's initial business combination.

The Issuer also issued to the Sponsor a promissory note in the amount of up to $4,140,000, as more fully described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Sale of CFGM Voting Shares to Trusts Controlled by Brandon Lutnick

On May 16, 2025, Howard W. Lutnick, in his capacity as trustee of a trust, entered into agreements to sell to trusts controlled by Brandon G. Lutnick all of the voting shares of CFGM, which is the managing general partner of Cantor. Cantor is the sole member of the Sponsor. CFGM, which through the Sponsor's ownership of Ordinary Shares, controls approximately 21.3% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares as of June 27, 2025. Following the closing of the transactions contemplated by such agreements, Brandon G. Lutnick will be deemed to have voting or dispositive power over the Ordinary Shares held by CFGM and Cantor, and Howard W. Lutnick will no longer have voting or dispositive power over such Ordinary Shares. The closings of the transactions contemplated by such agreements are subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals. The transactions described herein follow Howard W.

**Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.**

Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement: On June 27, 2025, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased 580,000 Placement Shares pursuant to the Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement, dated June 25, 2025, between the Issuer and Sponsor (the "Purchase Agreement"). The Placement Shares are subject to a lock up provision in the Purchase Agreement, which provides that such Placement Shares shall not be transferable, saleable or assignable until 30 days after the consummation of the Issuer's initial business combination, subject to certain limited exceptions as described in the Insider Letter (as defined below). The description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.5 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on June 27, 2025 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 1).

Insider Letter: On June 25, 2025, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer, the Sponsor and certain other parties thereto entered into a letter agreement (the "Insider Letter"), pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed (A) to vote its Ordinary Shares in favor of any proposed initial business combination (except that any Class A Ordinary Shares that were sold in the IPO ("public shares") it may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act would not be voted in favor of approving the initial business combination), (B) not to propose an amendment to the Issuer's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would modify the substance or delay the timing of the Issuer's obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Issuer's initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Issuer does not consummate an initial business combination within 24 months from the completion of the IPO (or (i) such earlier period approved by the board of directors of the Issuer or (ii) such later period approved by the Issuer's shareholders) unless the Issuer provides the holders of public shares with the opportunity to redeem such public 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 Issuer's trust account set up in connection with the IPO (the "Trust Account"), (C) not to redeem any Class B Ordinary Shares and Placement Shares into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve the Issuer's proposed initial business combination, and (D) that the Class B Ordinary Shares and Placement Shares shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if an initial business combination is not consummated. The Sponsor also agreed that in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, it will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer against any and all loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever which the Issuer may become subject to as a result of any claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Issuer for services rendered or products sold to or contracted for the Issuer, or by any target business with which the Issuer has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account; provided that such indemnity shall not apply if such vendor or prospective target business executes an agreement waiving any claims against the Trust Account or with respect to the underwriters of the IPO or the Issuer's public accounting firm. The description of the Insider Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on June 27, 2025 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 2).

Registration Rights Agreement: On June 25, 2025, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer and the Sponsor entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Sponsor was granted certain demand and "piggyback" registration rights, which will be subject to customary conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of shares offered. The summary of such registration rights agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.3 to the Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on June 27, 2025 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 3).

As contemplated by the Expense Advance Agreement, on June 25, 2025, the Issuer issued a promissory note to the Sponsor. The principal amount of the note is $1,750,000 and the note is interest free. The note is payable upon the Issuer's initial business combination; provided that such note will be convertible at the Sponsor's option into Class A Ordinary Shares at a conversion price of $10.00 per share no earlier than 60 days after the date of the IPO. If the Issuer is unable to consummate an initial business combination, the outstanding amounts under the promissory note would be repaid only out of funds held outside of the Trust Account.
