LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS OF JAWS MUSTANG ACQUISITION CORPORATION

1601 Washington Avenue, Suite 800
Miami Beach, FL 33139

Dear Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation Shareholder:

You are cordially invited to attend an extraordinary general meeting of Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“JWSM”), which will be held on January 25, 2024, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP located at 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022, and via a virtual meeting, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned (the “Shareholder Meeting”).

The Shareholder Meeting will be conducted via live webcast, but the physical location of the Shareholder Meeting will remain at the location specified above for the purposes of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Memorandum and Articles of Association”). If you wish to attend the Shareholder Meeting in person, you must reserve your attendance at least two business days in advance of the Shareholder Meeting by contacting JWSM’s proxy solicitor at JWSM.info@investor.morrowsodali.com by 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on January 23, 2024. You will be able to attend the Shareholder Meeting online, vote and submit your questions during the Shareholder Meeting by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/jawsmustang/2024.

The attached Notice of the Shareholder Meeting and proxy statement describe the business JWSM will conduct at the Shareholder Meeting (unless JWSM determines that it is not necessary to hold the Shareholder Meeting as described in the accompanying proxy statement) and provide information about JWSM that you should consider when you vote your shares. As more fully described in the attached proxy statement, which is dated January 11, 2024, and is first being mailed to shareholders on or about that date, the Shareholder Meeting will be held for the purpose of considering and voting on the following proposals:

Proposal No. 1 — Extension Amendment Proposal — To amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which JWSM has to consummate a business combination (the “Charter Extension”) from February 4, 2024 (the “Amended Termination Date”) to March 4, 2024 (the “Charter Extension Date”) and to allow JWSM, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the Charter Extension Date, by resolution of JWSM’s board of directors (the “Board”), if requested by Mustang Sponsor, LLC, (the “Sponsor”), and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until February 4, 2025 (each, an “Additional Charter Extension Date”), or a total of up to twelve months after the Charter Extension Date, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”);

Proposal No. 2 — Founder Share Amendment Proposal — To amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to provide for the right of a holder of JWSM’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares” or the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) to convert such Class B Ordinary Shares into JWSM’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of a business combination at the election of the holder (the “Founder Share Amendment Proposal”); and

Proposal No. 3 — Adjournment Proposal — To adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, (i) to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share in the capital of JWSM represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal or (ii) if the holders of Public Shares have elected to redeem an amount of shares in connection with the Extension

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Amendment Proposal such that JWSM would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange — American LLC (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

Each of the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement. Please take the time to read carefully each of the proposals in the accompanying proxy statement before you vote.

The purpose of the Extension Amendment Proposal is to allow JWSM additional time to complete an initial business combination (a “Business Combination”). You are not being asked to vote on a Business Combination at this time.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended on February 1, 2023, provide that JWSM has until the Termination Date to complete its initial Business Combination. The Board has determined that it is in the best interests of JWSM to seek an extension of the Termination Date and have JWSM’s shareholders approve the Extension Amendment Proposal to allow for a period of additional time to consummate a Business Combination. Without the Charter Extension, JWSM believes that JWSM may not be able to complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date. If that were to occur, JWSM would be precluded from completing a Business Combination and would be forced to liquidate.

The purpose of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal is to allow conversion of the Founder Shares at any time prior to a Business Combination. This flexibility may aid JWSM in retaining investors necessary to continue to pursue a Business Combination.

JWSM reserves the right at any time to cancel the Shareholder Meeting and not to submit to its shareholders the Extension Amendment Proposal and implement the Charter Extension. In the event the Shareholder Meeting is cancelled, and a Business Combination is not consummated prior to February 4, 2024, JWSM will dissolve and liquidate in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

As contemplated by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the holders of JWSM’s Class A Ordinary Shares, issued as part of the units sold in JWSM’s initial public offering (the “Public Shares”) may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in exchange for their pro rata portion of the funds held in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) established to hold a portion of the proceeds of the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) and the concurrent sale of the private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), if the Charter Extension is implemented (the “Redemption”), regardless of how such public shareholders vote in regard to the Extension Amendment Proposal. If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved by the requisite vote of shareholders, the holders of Public Shares remaining after the Redemption will retain their right to redeem their Public Shares for their pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account upon consummation of a Business Combination or if JWSM does not complete a Business Combination by the Charter Extension Date.

On January 8, 2024, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of the accompanying proxy statement, the redemption price per share was approximately $10.94, based on the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account of approximately $23,023,148 (including interest not previously released to JWSM to pay its taxes), divided by the total number of then outstanding Public Shares. The Redemption price per share will be calculated based on the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to JWSM to pay its taxes two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting. The closing price of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange — American LLC (“NYSEA”) on January 8, 2024 was $10.90. Accordingly, if the market price of the Class A Ordinary Shares were to remain the same until the date of the Shareholder Meeting, exercising redemption rights would result in a public shareholder receiving approximately $0.04 more per share than if the shares were sold in the open market (based on the per share redemption price as of January 8, 2024). JWSM cannot assure shareholders that they will be able to sell their Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is lower than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when such shareholders wish to sell their shares. JWSM believes that such redemption right enables its public shareholders to determine whether to sustain their investments for an additional period if JWSM does not complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, within five (5) business days of the date of the Shareholder Meeting, the Sponsor (or one or more of its affiliates, members or third-party designees) (the “Lender”) shall make a deposit into the Trust Account of $25,000, in exchange for one or more unsecured promissory notes issued by JWSM to the Lender. In addition, if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, in the event that JWSM has not consummated a Business Combination by February 4, 2024, without approval of JWSM’s public shareholders, JWSM may, by resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, extend the Termination Date up to eleven times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to eleven additional months to complete a Business Combination), provided that the Lender will deposit $25,000 into the Trust Account for each such monthly extension, for an aggregate deposit of up to $275,000 (if all eleven additional monthly extensions are exercised), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by JWSM to the Lender. If JWSM completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If JWSM does not complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved, and a Business Combination is not completed on or before the Termination Date, JWSM will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public 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 JWSM to pay its taxes, if any, (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of JWSM’s remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to JWSM’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to JWSM’s warrants, which will expire worthless in the event JWSM dissolves and liquidates the Trust Account.

Subject to the foregoing, the approval of each of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares” and together with the Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Ordinary Shares”), voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. The Adjournment Proposal will only be put forth for a vote if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting or if due to redemptions in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal, JWSM would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of the NYSEA.

The Board has fixed the close of business on December 19, 2023 (the “Record Date”) as the date for determining JWSM’s shareholders entitled to receive notice of and vote at the Shareholder Meeting and any adjournment thereof. Only holders of record of Ordinary Shares on that date are entitled to have their votes counted at the Shareholder Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

JWSM believes that it is in the best interests of JWSM’s shareholders that JWSM obtain the Charter Extension if needed. After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board has determined that the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of JWSM and its shareholders, has declared it advisable and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the Extension Amendment proposal, “FOR” the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting, please vote as soon as possible by following the instructions in the accompanying proxy statement to make sure that your shares are represented and voted at the Shareholder Meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the Shareholder Meeting. The approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal require a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Accordingly, if you fail to vote in person or by proxy at the Shareholder Meeting, your shares will not be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are approved by the requisite majorities.

If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted “FOR” each of the proposals presented at the Shareholder Meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the Shareholder Meeting in person, the effect will be that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Shareholder Meeting but will otherwise not have any effect on whether the proposals are approved. If you are a shareholder of record and you attend the Shareholder Meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person.

TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS, YOU MUST DEMAND IN WRITING THAT YOUR CLASS A ORDINARY SHARES ARE REDEEMED FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT AND TENDER YOUR SHARES TO JWSM’S TRANSFER AGENT AT LEAST TWO BUSINESS DAYS PRIOR TO THE INITIALLY SCHEDULED DATE OF THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING.

YOU MAY TENDER YOUR SHARES BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR SHARE CERTIFICATE TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR SHARES ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BANK OR BROKER TO WITHDRAW THE SHARES FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

Enclosed is the proxy statement containing detailed information about the Shareholder Meeting, the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal.

You are cordially invited to attend the Shareholder Meeting that will be held for the purpose of considering and voting on (i) an extension amendment proposal to amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which JWSM has to consummate a business combination (the “Charter Extension”) from February 4, 2024 (the “Amended Termination Date”) to March 4, 2024 (the “Charter Extension Date”) and to allow JWSM, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the Charter Extension Date, by resolution of JWSM’s board of directors (the “Board”), if requested by Mustang Sponsor, LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until February 4, 2025 (each, an “Additional Charter Extension Date”) or a total of up to twelve months after the Charter Extension Date, unless the closing of a Business Combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”); (ii) a founder share amendment proposal to amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to provide for the right of a holder of JWSM’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares” or the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) to convert such Class B Ordinary Shares into JWSM’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of a business combination at the election of the holder (the “Founder Share Amendment Proposal”); and (iii) an adjournment proposal to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient JWSM ordinary shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”) (unless JWSM determines that it is not necessary to hold the Shareholder Meeting as described in the accompanying proxy statement), each as more fully described below in the accompanying proxy statement, which is dated January 11, 2024 and is first being mailed to shareholders on or about that date.

The full text of the proposals to be voted upon at the Shareholder Meeting is as follows:

Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal — RESOLVED, as a special resolution that:

a) Article 49.7 of JWSM’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 49.7:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

“In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination upon the date which is the later of: (i) March 4, 2024 (or February 4, 2025, if applicable under the provisions of this Article 49.7), or (ii) such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles, the Company shall: (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 the Public 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 (less taxes payable and up to US$100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public Members’ rights as Members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Members and the Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of Applicable Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of the Articles, in the event that the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within thirty-seven months from the closing of the IPO, the Company may, without another vote of the Members, elect to extend the date to consummate the Business Combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the thirty-seventh month from the closing of the IPO, by resolution of the Directors, if requested by the Sponsor in writing, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until forty-eight months from the closing of the IPO, provided that the Sponsor (or one or more of its Affiliates, members or third-party designees) (the “Lender”) will deposit US$25,000 into the Trust Account for each such monthly extension, for an aggregate deposit of up to US$275,000 (if all eleven additional monthly extensions are exercised), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Lender. If the Company completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.”

b) Article 49.8(a) of JWSM’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 49.8(a):

“to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to: (i) allow redemptions of the Public Shares in connection with a Business Combination or: (ii) redeem 100 per cent of the Public Shares if the Company has not completed a Business Combination by February 4, 2025, or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles; and/or”

c) Article 49.10(b) of JWSM’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 49.10(b):

“vote as a class with the Public Shares: (i) on the Company’s initial Business Combination or on any other proposal presented to shareholders prior to or in connection with the completion of an initial Business Combination; or (ii) to approve an amendment to the Memorandum or the Articles to (x) extend the time we have to consummate a business combination beyond February 4, 2025 or (y) amend this Article 49.10.”;

Proposal No. 2 — Founder Share Amendment Proposal — RESOLVED, as a special resolution that:

a) Article 17.2 of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 17.2:

“Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis (the “Initial Conversion Ratio”): (a) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holders thereof, or (b) in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

b) Article 17.3 of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 17.3:

“Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other Equity-linked Securities, are issued or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares at the time of the closing of a Business Combination at an adjusted ratio so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20 per cent of the sum of: (a) the total number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the IPO, plus (b) the total number of Class A Shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any Equity-linked Securities or rights issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor, its Affiliates or any Director or Officer upon conversion of working capital loans.”

c) Article 49.10 of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 49.10:

“Except in connection with the conversion of Class B Shares into Class A Shares pursuant to the Class B Ordinary Share Conversion Article hereof where the holders of such Shares have waived any right to receive funds from the Trust Account, after the issue of Public Shares, and prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall not issue additional Shares or any other securities that would entitle the holders thereof to:

(a)

receive funds from the Trust Account; or

(b)

vote as a class with Public Shares on a Business Combination.”

The Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended on February 1, 2023, provide that JWSM has until the Termination date to complete its initial Business Combination. The Board has determined that it is in the best interests of JWSM to seek an extension of the Termination Date and have JWSM’s shareholders approve the Extension Amendment Proposal to allow for a period of additional time to consummate a Business Combination. Without the Charter Extension, JWSM believes that JWSM may not be able to complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date. If that were to occur, JWSM would be precluded from completing a Business Combination and would be forced to liquidate.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

JWSM reserves the right at any time to cancel the Shareholder Meeting (by means of adjourning the Shareholder Meeting sine die) and not to submit to its shareholders the Extension Amendment Proposal and implement the Charter Extension. In the event the Shareholder Meeting is cancelled and JWSM is unable to complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date, JWSM will dissolve and liquidate in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

JWSM believes that it is in the best interests of JWSM’s shareholders that JWSM obtain the Charter Extension if needed. After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board has determined that the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of JWSM and its shareholders, has declared it advisable and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the Extension Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

As contemplated by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the holders of JWSM’s Class A Ordinary Shares, issued as part of the units sold in JWSM’s initial public offering (the “Public Shares”) may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in exchange for their pro rata portion of the funds held in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) established to hold a portion of the proceeds of the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) and the concurrent sale of the private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), if the Charter Extension is implemented (the “Redemption”), regardless of how such public shareholders vote in regard to the Extension Amendment Proposal. If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved by the requisite vote of shareholders, holders of Public Shares remaining after the Redemption will retain their right to redeem their Public Shares for their pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account upon consummation of a Business Combination or if JWSM does not complete a Business Combination by the Charter Extension Date.

Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Charter Extension. JWSM cannot predict the amount that will remain in the Trust Account following the Redemption if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved, and the amount remaining in the Trust Account may be only a small fraction of the $23,023,148 that was in the Trust Account as of January 8, 2024 (including interest not previously released to JWSM to pay its taxes).

TABLE OF CONTENTS

event that JWSM has not consummated a Business Combination by February 4, 2024, without approval of JWSM’s public shareholders, JWSM may, by resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, extend the Termination Date up to eleven times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to eleven additional months to complete a Business Combination), provided that the Lender will deposit $25,000 into the Trust Account for each such monthly extension, for an aggregate deposit of up to $275,000 (if all eleven additional monthly extensions are exercised), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by JWSM to the Lender. If JWSM completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If JWSM does not complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved or the Charter Extension is not implemented, and a Business Combination is not completed on or before the Termination Date, JWSM will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public 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 JWSM to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of JWSM’s remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to JWSM’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In the event of a liquidation, the Sponsor and the other initial shareholders of JWSM will not receive any monies held in the Trust Account as a result of their ownership of 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares which were issued to the Sponsor prior to the Initial Public Offering, and 11,350,000 private placement warrants, which were purchased by the Sponsor in a private placement which occurred simultaneously with the completion of the Initial Public Offering. As a consequence, a liquidating distribution will be made only with respect to the Public Shares.

With respect to the regulation of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) like the JWSM, on March 30, 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued proposed rules relating to, among other items, the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The proposal is consistent with less formal positions recently taken by the staff of the SEC. To mitigate the risk of being viewed as operating an unregistered investment company, JWSM has instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination and liquidation of JWSM. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 2.5 – 3.0% per annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate and JWSM cannot assure you that such rate will not

decrease or increase significantly. Accordingly, the funds in the Trust Account will cease to be invested and such funds are not expected to otherwise earn interest. This means that the amount available for redemption will not increase in the future, and those shareholders who elect not to redeem their Public Shares in connection with the Charter Extension will receive no more than the same amount, without additional interest, if they redeem their Public Shares in connection with a Business Combination or if JWSM is liquidated in the future, in each case as compared with the per share amount they would receive if they had redeemed in connection with the Charter Extension. See “Risk Factors — If we are deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we would be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities would be severely restricted. As a result, in such circumstances, unless we are able to modify our activities so that we would not be deemed an investment company, we may abandon our efforts to complete an initial Business Combination and instead liquidate JWSM.”

Subject to the foregoing, the approval of each of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares (together, the “Ordinary Shares”), voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

Record holders of Ordinary Shares at the close of business on December 19, 2023 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to vote or have their votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 2,103,614 issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and 25,875,000 issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares. JWSM’s warrants do not have voting rights.

Our Sponsor and JWSM’s officers, directors and initial shareholders have informed us of their intent to vote all of their Ordinary Shares in favor of the proposals being presented at the Shareholder Meeting. Such shares will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price. As of the date of the accompanying proxy statement, JWSM’s officers, directors and initial shareholders hold approximately 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares.

The accompanying proxy statement contains important information about the Shareholder Meeting, the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal. Whether or not you plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting, JWSM urges you to read this material carefully and vote your shares.

The accompanying proxy statement is dated January 11, 2024 and is first being mailed to shareholders on or about that date.

By Order of the Board of Directors of Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements contained in this proxy statement constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements reflect the current views of JWSM with respect to, among other things, JWSM’s capital resources and results of operations. Likewise, JWSM’s financial statements and all of JWSM’s statements regarding market conditions and results of operations are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of terminology such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words or phrases.

The forward-looking statements contained in this proxy statement reflect JWSM’s current views about future events and are subject to numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and changes in circumstances that may cause its actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. JWSM does not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:

•

JWSM’s ability to complete a Business Combination;

•

the anticipated benefits of a Business Combination;

•

the volatility of the market price and liquidity of the Class A Ordinary Shares (as defined below) and other securities of JWSM; and

•

the use of funds not held in the Trust Account (as described herein) or available to JWSM from interest income on the Trust Account balance.

While forward-looking statements reflect JWSM’s good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. JWSM disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes after the date of this proxy statement, except as required by applicable law. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could cause JWSM’s future results, performance or transactions to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement, please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in JWSM’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 1, 2023 and in other reports JWSM files with the SEC. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based only on information currently available to JWSM (or to third parties making the forward-looking statements).

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the below risk factors, you should consider carefully all of the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023, any subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC and in the other reports we file with the SEC before making a decision to invest in our securities. Furthermore, if any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected or we could face liquidation. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described in the aforementioned filings and below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results or result in our liquidation.

There are no assurances that the Charter Extension will enable us to complete a Business Combination.

Approving the Charter Extension involves a number of risks. Even if the Charter Extension is approved, we can provide no assurances that any transaction qualifying as a Business Combination will be consummated prior to the Charter Extension Date. Our ability to consummate a Business Combination is dependent on a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. If the Charter Extension is approved, we expect to seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination prior to the Charter Extension Date. We are required to offer shareholders the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares (as defined below) in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal. Even if the Charter Extension is approved by our shareholders, it is possible that Redemptions (as defined below) will leave us with insufficient cash to consummate a Business Combination on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. The fact that we will have separate redemption periods in connection with the Charter Extension and a Business Combination vote could exacerbate these risks. Other than in connection with a redemption offer or liquidation, our shareholders may be unable to recover their investment except through sales of our shares on the open market. The price of our shares may be volatile, and there can be no assurance that shareholders will be able to dispose of our shares at favorable prices, or at all.

The SEC has recently issued proposed rules to regulate special purpose acquisition companies. Certain of the procedures that we, a potential business combination target, or others may determine to undertake in connection with such proposals may increase our costs and the time needed to complete a Business Combination and may constrain the circumstances under which we could complete a Business Combination.

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules (the “SPAC Proposed Rules”) that would, among other items, impose additional disclosure requirements in initial public offerings by special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) and business combination transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies; amend the financial statement requirements applicable to business combination transactions involving such companies; update and expand guidance regarding the general use of projections in SEC filings, as well as when projections are disclosed in connection with proposed business combination transactions; increase the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and impact the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). These rules, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in revised form, may materially adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination and may increase the costs and time related thereto.

If we are deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we would be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities would be severely restricted. As a result, in such circumstances, unless we are able to modify our activities so that we would not be deemed an investment company, we may abandon our efforts to complete an initial Business Combination and instead liquidate JWSM.

As described further above, the SPAC Proposed Rules relate, among other matters, to the circumstances in which SPACs such as JWSM could potentially be subject to the Investment Company Act and the regulations thereunder. The SPAC Proposed Rules would provide a safe harbor for such companies from the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act, provided that a SPAC satisfies certain criteria, including a limited time period to announce and complete a de-SPAC

TABLE OF CONTENTS

transaction. Specifically, to comply with the safe harbor, the SPAC Proposed Rules would require a company to file a report on Form 8-K announcing that it has entered into an agreement with a target company for a Business Combination no later than 18 months after the effective date of its registration statement for its initial public offering (the “IPO Registration Statement”) and complete its initial Business Combination no later than 24 months after the effective date of the IPO Registration Statement. Both such dates have already passed.

If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, our activities would be severely restricted. In addition, we would be subject to burdensome compliance requirements. We do not believe that our principal activities will subject us to regulation as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. However, if we are deemed to be an investment company and subject to compliance with and regulation under the Investment Company Act, we would be subject to additional regulatory burdens and expenses for which we have not allotted funds. As a result, unless we are able to modify our activities so that we would not be deemed an investment company, we may abandon our efforts to complete an initial Business Combination and instead liquidate JWSM. Were we to liquidate, our warrants would expire worthless, and our securityholders would lose the investment opportunity associated with an investment in the combined company, including any potential price appreciation of our securities.

To mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we have instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account and instead hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account until the earlier of the consummation of our initial Business Combination or our liquidation. As a result, following such change, we will likely receive minimal interest on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount that our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or our liquidation.

Initially, the funds in the Trust Account had, since our initial public offering, been held only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. However, to mitigate the risk of us being deemed to be an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act) and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, we liquidated the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and instructed Continental (as defined below), the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to maintain the funds in the trust account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of the consummation of our initial Business Combination or the liquidation of JWSM. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 2.5-3.0% per annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate and JWSM cannot assure you that such rate will not decrease or increase significantly. Following such liquidation, we have received minimal interest on the funds held in the Trust Account. However, interest previously earned on the funds held in the Trust Account still may be released to us to pay our taxes, if any. As a result, the decision to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash items has reduced the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of JWSM.

In addition, the longer that the funds in the Trust Account are held in short-term U.S. government treasury obligations or in money market funds invested exclusively in such securities, the greater the risk that we may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case we may be required to liquidate JWSM. Accordingly, we may determine, in our discretion, to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account at any time and instead hold all funds in the Trust Account as cash items which would further reduce the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of JWSM. Were we to liquidate, our warrants would expire worthless, and our securityholders would lose the investment opportunity associated with an investment in the combined company, including any potential price appreciation of our securities.

The ability of our public shareholders to exercise redemption rights if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved with respect to a large number of our Public Shares may adversely affect the liquidity and trading of our securities and may impact our ability to complete the Business Combination.

Pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a public shareholder may request that JWSM redeem all or a portion of such public shareholder’s Public Shares for cash if the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Extension Amendment Proposal is approved. The ability of our public shareholders to exercise such redemption rights with respect to a large number of our Public Shares may adversely affect the liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, you may be unable to sell your Class A Ordinary Shares even if the per-share market price is higher than the per-share redemption price paid to public shareholders that elect to redeem their Public Shares if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved.

In addition, after the Shareholder Meeting, we may be required to demonstrate compliance with the New York Stock Exchange — American LLC’s (“NYSEA”) continued listing requirements in order to maintain the listing of our securities on NYSEA. We cannot assure you that any of our securities will be able to meet all of the NYSEA continued listing requirements following any redemptions in connection with the Shareholder Meeting. If our securities do not meet NYSEA’s continued listing requirements, NYSEA may delist our securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.

If we redeem our Public Shares in an amount such that JWSM would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of NYSEA, NYSEA may delist our securities from trading on its exchange. If NYSEA delists any of our securities from trading on its exchange and we are not able to list such securities on another approved national securities exchange, we expect that such securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including: (i) a limited availability of market quotations for our securities, (ii) reduced liquidity for our securities, (iii) a determination that our Public Shares are “penny stocks” which will require brokers trading in our Public Shares to adhere to more stringent rules, including being subject to the depository requirements of Rule 419 of the Securities Act, and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities, (iv) a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future, and (v) a less attractive acquisition vehicle to a target business in connection with an initial business combination. The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Our Public Shares and units qualify as covered securities under such statute. If we were no longer listed on NYSEA, our securities would not qualify as covered securities under such statute and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities.

NYSEA may delist JWSM’s securities from its exchange which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in its securities and subject JWSM to additional trading restrictions.

JWSM is listed on NYSEA. The NYSEA requires that a special purpose acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within thirty-six (36) months of the effectiveness of its IPO Registration Statement. The extension that we are requesting at the Shareholder Meeting will extend our ability to complete a business combination until the forty-eight (48) month anniversary of our IPO, which will take us beyond the permitted period for a business combination under the foregoing NYSEA rule. Therefore, unless we complete a business combination by February 4, 2024, we may be subject to suspension and delisting from the NYSEA due to our non-compliance with that requirement.

We and the holders of our securities could be materially adversely impacted if our securities are delisted from NYSEA due to non-compliance with the above rule. In particular:

•

the price of our securities will likely decrease as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with NYSEA;

•

holders may be unable to sell or purchase our securities when they wish to do so;

•

we may become subject to shareholder litigation;

•

we may lose the interest of institutional investors in our securities;

•

we may lose media and analyst coverage; and

•

we would likely lose any active trading market for our securities, as our securities may then only be traded on one of the over-the-counter markets, if at all.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING

The questions and answers below highlight only selected information from this proxy statement and only briefly address some commonly asked questions about the Shareholder Meeting (as defined below) and the proposals to be presented at the Shareholder Meeting. The following questions and answers do not include all the information that is important to JWSM shareholders. Shareholders are urged to read carefully this entire proxy statement, including the other documents referred to herein, to fully understand the proposal to be presented at the Shareholder Meeting and the voting procedures for the Shareholder Meeting, which will be held on January 25, 2024, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time. The Shareholder Meeting will be held at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP located at 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022, and via a virtual meeting, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned (the “Shareholder Meeting”).

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

JWSM is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on October 19, 2020. JWSM was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

Following the closing of JWSM’s initial public offering on February 4, 2021 (the “Initial Public Offering”), including the issuance of 13,500,000 additional Units (as defined below) as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, an amount of approximately $1.035 billion ($10.00 per unit offered in the Initial Public Offering (the “Units”)) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to the Sponsor were placed in a trust account established at the consummation of the Initial Public Offering that holds the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering (the “Trust Account”). Each Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share and one-fourth of one redeemable warrant.

Like most blank check companies, JWSM’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Memorandum and Articles of Association”) provide for the return of the Initial Public Offering proceeds held in trust to the holders of Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares” or the “Public Shares”) sold in the Initial Public Offering if there is no qualifying business combination(s) consummated on or before February 4, 2024 (the “Original Termination Date”). On February 1, 2023, JWSM held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to, in part, amend our Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which we have to consummate a business combination from the Original Termination Date to February 4, 2023.

Without the Charter Extension (as defined below), JWSM believes that JWSM might not, despite its best efforts, be able to complete an initial business combination (a “Business Combination”) on or before February 4, 2024. JWSM believes that it is in the best interests of JWSM’s shareholders to continue JWSM’s existence until February 4, 2025 if necessary in order to allow JWSM additional time to complete a Business Combination and is therefore holding this Shareholder Meeting.

When and where will the Shareholder Meeting be held?

The Shareholder Meeting will be held on January 25, 2024, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP located at 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022, and via a virtual meeting, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned.

Shareholders may attend the Shareholder Meeting in person. However, in view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are taking precautionary measures and therefore encourage you to attend the Shareholder Meeting virtually. If you wish to attend the Shareholder Meeting in person, you must reserve your attendance at least two business days in advance of the Shareholder Meeting by contacting JWSM’s Chief Executive Officer in writing at Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation, 1601 Washington Avenue, Suite 800, Miami Beach, FL 33139 by 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on January 23, 2024.

What are the specific proposals on which I am being asked to vote at the Shareholder Meeting?

JWSM shareholders are being asked to consider and vote on the following proposals:

Proposal No. 1 — Extension Amendment Proposal — To amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which JWSM has to consummate a business combination (the “Charter Extension”) from February 4, 2024 (the “Amended Termination Date”) to March 4, 2024 (the “Charter Extension Date”) and to allow JWSM, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the Charter Extension Date, by resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until February 4, 2025 (each, an “Additional Charter Extension Date”), or a total of up to twelve months after the Charter Extension Date, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”);

Proposal No. 2 — Founder Share Amendment Proposal — To amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to provide for the right of a holder of JWSM’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares” or the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) to convert such Class B Ordinary Shares into JWSM’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (“Class A Ordinary Shares”) on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of a business combination at the election of the holder (the “Founder Share Amendment Proposal”); and

Proposal No. 3 — Adjournment Proposal — To adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to (i) permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal or (ii) if the holders of Public Shares have elected to redeem an amount of shares in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal such that JWSM would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange — American LLC (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

For more information, please see “Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal”, “Proposal No. 2 — Founder Share Amendment Proposal” and “Proposal No. 3 — The Adjournment Proposal”.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, within five (5) business days of the date of the Shareholder Meeting the Sponsor (or one or more of its affiliates, members or third-party designees) (the “Lender”) shall make a deposit into the Trust Account of $25,000, in exchange for one or more unsecured promissory notes issued by JWSM to the Lender. In addition, if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, in the event that JWSM has not consummated a Business Combination by February 4, 2024, without approval of JWSM’s public shareholders, JWSM may, by resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, extend the Termination Date up to eleven times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to eleven additional months to complete a Business Combination), provided that the Lender will deposit $25,000 into the Trust Account for each such monthly extension, for an aggregate deposit of up to $275,000 (if all eleven additional monthly extensions are exercised), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by JWSM to the Lender. If JWSM completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If JWSM does not complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

After careful consideration, JWSM’s Board has unanimously determined that the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of JWSM and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of these proposals.

The existence of financial and personal interests of our directors and officers may result in conflicts of interest, including a conflict between what may be in the best interests of JWSM and its shareholders and what may be best for a director’s personal interests when determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. See the sections titled “Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor, JWSM’s Directors, Officers and Initial Shareholders” and “Beneficial Ownership of Securities” for a further discussion of these considerations.

THE VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS IS IMPORTANT. SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO SUBMIT THEIR PROXIES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER CAREFULLY REVIEWING THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

Are the proposals conditioned on each other?

Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Charter Extension. JWSM also will not proceed with the Charter Extension if, on or before the Termination Date, JWSM completes a Business Combination.

If the Charter Extension is implemented and one or more JWSM shareholders elect to redeem their Public Shares pursuant to the Redemption, JWSM will remove from the Trust Account and deliver to the holders of such redeemed Public Shares an amount equal to the pro rata portion of funds available in the Trust Account with respect to such redeemed Public Shares and retain the remainder of the funds in the Trust Account for JWSM’s use in connection with consummating a Business Combination, subject to the redemption rights of holders of Public Shares in connection with a Business Combination.

The Adjournment Proposal is conditional on JWSM not obtaining the necessary votes for approving the Extension Amendment Proposal prior to the Shareholder Meeting in order to seek additional time to obtain sufficient votes in support of the Charter Extension. If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved at the Shareholder Meeting, the Adjournment Proposal will not be presented.

Why is JWSM proposing the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal?

JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provide for the return of the Initial Public Offering proceeds held in trust to the holders of Public Shares sold in the Initial Public Offering if there is no qualifying Business Combination consummated on or before the Termination Date. The purpose of the Extension Amendment Proposal is to allow JWSM additional time to complete a Business Combination.

Without the Charter Extension, JWSM believes that JWSM may not be able to complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date. If that were to occur, JWSM would be forced to liquidate.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved by JWSM’s shareholders, JWSM may put the Adjournment Proposal to a vote in order to seek additional time to obtain sufficient votes in support of the Charter Extension. If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by JWSM’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates in the event that there are insufficient Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What constitutes a quorum?

A quorum of our shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence (which would include presence at the virtual Shareholder Meeting), in person or by proxy, of shareholders holding a majority of the Ordinary Shares entitled to vote at the Shareholder Meeting constitutes a quorum at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. The initial shareholders of JWSM, including the Sponsor, Elizabeth C. Fascitelli, David A. Helfand and John J. Legere (the “JWSM Initial Shareholders”), who own 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares as of the record date, will count towards this quorum. As a result, as of the record date, no Ordinary Shares held by public shareholders would be required to be present at the Shareholder Meeting to achieve a quorum. Because all of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting are “non-routine” matters, banks, brokers and other nominees will not have authority to vote on any proposals unless instructed, so JWSM does not expect there to be any broker non-votes at the Shareholder Meeting. In the absence of a quorum, the chairman of the Shareholder Meeting has power to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting.

What vote is required to approve the proposals presented at the Shareholder Meeting?

The approval of each of the Extension Amendment Proposal and Founder Share Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

How will the Sponsor, JWSM’s directors, officers and its initial shareholders vote?

The Sponsor, JWSM’s directors, officers and its initial shareholders have informed us of their intent to vote any Ordinary Shares over which they have voting control in favor of the Extension Amendment Proposal and, if necessary, the Adjournment Proposal.

The Sponsor, JWSM’s directors, officers and its initial shareholders and their respective affiliates are not entitled to redeem any Class B Ordinary Shares held by them in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal and Founder Share Amendment Proposal. On the Record Date, the Sponsor, JWSM’s directors, officers and its initial shareholders and their respective affiliates beneficially owned and were entitled to vote an aggregate of 26,075,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 93.2% of JWSM’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares.

On January 10, 2024, JWSM and the parties to the Letter Agreement, dated February 1, 2021, among JWSM, our Sponsor, and JWSM’s officers and directors (“Insider Letter”), waived a restriction imposed by Section 3 and Section 4(b) of the Insider Letter on the ability of former director David Helfand to redeem any Public Shares held by him. The Founder Shares held by Mr. Helfand will continue to be bound by the applicable restrictions of the Insider Letter.

Who is JWSM’s Sponsor?

JWSM’s sponsor is Mustang Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The Sponsor currently owns 25,800,000 Class B Ordinary Shares and 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants.

Barry S. Sternlicht, the Chairman of JWSM, has voting and dipositive power over the Class B Ordinary Shares Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor. The Sponsor is not “controlled” (as defined in 31 CFR 800.208) by a foreign person, such that the Sponsor’s involvement in the Business Combination would be a “covered transaction” (as defined in 31 CFR 800.213). However, it is possible that non-U.S. persons could be involved in our Business Combination, which may increase the risk that our Business

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Combination becomes subject to regulatory review, including review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”), and that restrictions, limitations or conditions will be imposed by CFIUS. If our Business Combination with a U.S. business is subject to CFIUS review, the scope of which was expanded by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018 (“FIRRMA”), to include certain non-passive, non-controlling investments in sensitive U.S. businesses and certain acquisitions of real estate even with no underlying U.S. business. FIRRMA, and subsequent implementing regulations that are now in force, also subjects certain categories of investments to mandatory filings. If our potential Business Combination with a U.S. business falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, we may determine that we are required to make a mandatory filing or that we will submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with a Business Combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing a Business Combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay our Business Combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such Business Combination or order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, which may limit the attractiveness of or prevent us from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that we believe would otherwise be beneficial to us and our shareholders. As a result, the pool of potential targets with which we could complete a Business Combination may be limited and we may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign ownership issues. A failure to notify CFIUS of a transaction where such notification was required or otherwise warranted based on the national security considerations presented by an investment target may expose the Sponsor and/or the combined company to legal penalties, costs and/or other adverse reputational and financial effects, thus potentially diminishing the value of the combined company. In addition, CFIUS is actively pursuing transactions that were not notified to it and may ask questions regarding, or impose restrictions or mitigation on, a Business Combination post-closing.

Moreover, the process of government review, whether by the CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy and we have limited time to complete our Business Combination. If we cannot complete a Business Combination by February 4, 2024 (or by February 4, 2025 if extended) because the transaction is still under review or because our Business Combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government entity, we may be required to liquidate. If we liquidate, our public shareholders may only receive approximately $10.94 per Public Share (based on the redemption price on January 8, 2024, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement), and our warrants will expire worthless. This will also cause you to lose the investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

Why should I vote “FOR” the Extension Amendment Proposal?

JWSM believes shareholders will benefit from JWSM consummating a Business Combination and is proposing the Extension Amendment Proposal to extend the date by which JWSM has to complete a Business Combination until the Charter Extension Date. Without the Charter Extension, JWSM believes that JWSM may not be able to complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date.

If that were to occur, JWSM would be forced to liquidate.

Why should I vote “FOR” the Founder Share Amendment Proposal?

The purpose of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal is to allow conversion of the Founder Shares on a one-to-one basis at any time prior to a Business Combination. This flexibility may aid JWSM in retaining investors necessary to continue to pursue a Business Combination.

Why should I vote “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal?

If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by JWSM’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates in the event that there are insufficient Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or, at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If presented, the Board recommends that you vote in favor of the Adjournment Proposal.

What if I do not want to vote “FOR” the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal?

If you do not want the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal to be approved, you may “ABSTAIN”, not vote, or vote “AGAINST” such proposal.

If you attend the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy, you may vote “AGAINST” the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal, and your Ordinary Shares will be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) are approved.

However, if you fail to attend the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy, or if you do attend the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy but you “ABSTAIN” or otherwise fail to vote at the Shareholder Meeting, your Ordinary Shares will not be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal. or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) are approved, and your Ordinary Shares which are not voted at the Shareholder Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of such votes.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal is approved, the Adjournment Proposal will not be presented for a vote.

How are the funds in the Trust Account currently being held?

With respect to the regulation of SPACs like JWSM, on March 30, 2022, the SEC issued the SPAC Proposed Rules relating to, among other items, the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, including a proposed rule that would provide SPACs a safe harbor from treatment as an investment company if they satisfy certain conditions that limit a SPAC’s duration, asset composition, business purpose and activities.

With regard to the SEC’s investment company proposals included in the SPAC Proposed Rules, while the funds in the Trust Account have, since JWSM’s Initial Public Offering, been held only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries, to mitigate the risk of being viewed as operating an unregistered investment company (including pursuant to the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act of 1940), JWSM has instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination and liquidation of JWSM. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 2.5-3.0% per annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate and JWSM cannot assure you that such rate will not decrease or increase significantly.

Will you seek any further extensions to liquidate the Trust Account?

Other than as described in this proxy statement, JWSM does not currently anticipate seeking any further extension to consummate a Business Combination beyond the Charter Extension Date but may do so in the future.

What happens if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved?

If there are insufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, JWSM may put the Adjournment Proposal to a vote in order to seek additional time to obtain sufficient votes in support of the Charter Extension.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved at the Shareholder Meeting or at any adjournment thereof or the Charter Extension is not implemented, and a Business Combination is not

TABLE OF CONTENTS

completed on or before the Termination Date, then as contemplated by and in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association, JWSM will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public 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 JWSM to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of JWSM’s remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to JWSM’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to JWSM’s warrants, which will expire worthless in the event JWSM dissolves and liquidates the Trust Account.

The Sponsor, the officers and directors and the initial shareholders of JWSM waived their rights to participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to the 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares held by them.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved, what happens next?

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved, JWSM will continue to attempt to consummate a Business Combination until the Charter Extension Date. JWSM will procure that all filings required to be made with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal are made and will continue its efforts to obtain approval of a Business Combination at an extraordinary general meeting and consummate the closing of a Business Combination on or before the Charter Extension Date.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension is implemented, the removal from the Trust Account of the amount equal to the pro rata portion of funds available in the Trust Account with respect to such redeemed Public Shares will reduce the amount remaining in the Trust Account and increase the percentage interest of JWSM held by JWSM’s officers, directors, the Sponsor and its affiliates.

If I vote for or against the Extension Amendment Proposal, do I need to request that my shares be redeemed?

Yes. Whether you vote “for” or “against” the Extension Amendment Proposal, or do not vote at all, you may elect to redeem your shares. However, you will need to submit a redemption request for your shares if you choose to redeem.

What amount will holders receive upon consummation of a Business Combination or liquidation if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved?

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, within five (5) business days of the date of the Shareholder Meeting, the Lender shall make a deposit into the Trust Account of $25,000, in exchange for one or more unsecured promissory notes issued by JWSM to the Lender. In addition, if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, in the event that JWSM has not consummated a Business Combination by February 4, 2024, without approval of JWSM’s public shareholders, JWSM may, by resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, extend the Termination Date up to eleven times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to eleven additional months to complete a Business Combination), provided that the Lender will deposit $25,000 into the Trust Account for each such monthly extension, for an aggregate deposit of up to $275,000 (if all eleven additional monthly extensions are exercised), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by JWSM to the Lender. If JWSM completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If JWSM does not

TABLE OF CONTENTS

complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

Am I being asked to vote on a Business Combination at this Shareholder Meeting?

No. You are not being asked to vote on a Business Combination at this time. If the Charter Extension is implemented and you do not elect to redeem your Public Shares, provided that you are a shareholder on the record date for the shareholder meeting to consider a Business Combination, you will be entitled to vote on a Business Combination when it is submitted to shareholders and will retain the right to redeem your Public Shares for cash in connection with a Business Combination or liquidation.

Will how I vote affect my ability to exercise Redemption rights?

No. You may exercise your Redemption rights whether or not you are a holder of Public Shares on the Record Date (so long as you are a holder at the time of exercise), or whether you are a holder and vote your Public Shares of JWSM on the Extension Amendment Proposal or Founder Share Amendment Proposal (for or against) or any other proposal described by this proxy statement. As a result, the Charter Extension can be approved by shareholders who will redeem their Public Shares and no longer remain shareholders, leaving shareholders who choose not to redeem their Public Shares holding shares in a company with a potentially less liquid trading market, fewer shareholders, potentially less cash and the potential inability to meet the listing standards of the NYSEA.

May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card?

Yes. Shareholders may send a later-dated, signed proxy card to JWSM at 1601 Washington Avenue, Suite 800 Miami Beach, FL, 33139 so that it is received by JWSM prior to the vote at the Shareholder Meeting (which is scheduled to take place on January 25, 2024) or attend the Shareholder Meeting in person (which would include presence at the virtual Shareholder Meeting) and vote. Shareholders also may revoke their proxy by sending a notice of revocation to JWSM’s Chief Operating Officer, which must be received by JWSM’s Chief Operating Officer prior to the vote at the Shareholder Meeting. However, if your shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank or another nominee, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee to change your vote.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Shareholder Meeting, who will separately count “FOR” and “AGAINST” votes, “ABSTAIN” and broker non-votes. The approval of each of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Shares Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

Shareholders who attend the Shareholder Meeting, either in person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by sending their duly authorized representative or proxy), will be counted (and the number of Ordinary Shares held by such shareholders will be counted) for the purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Shareholder Meeting. The presence, in person or by proxy or by duly authorized representative, at the Shareholder Meeting of the holders of a majority of all issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares entitled to vote at the Shareholder Meeting shall constitute a quorum for the Shareholder Meeting.

At the Shareholder Meeting, only those votes which are actually cast, either “FOR” or “AGAINST”, the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal, will be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Extension Amendment Proposal,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) are approved, and any Ordinary Shares which are not voted at the Shareholder Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of such votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on the Extension Amendment Proposal, Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal.

If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

If your shares are held in “street name” in a stock brokerage account or by a broker, bank or other nominee, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares.

Please follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee. Please note that you may not vote shares held in “street name” by returning a proxy card directly to JWSM or by voting online at the Shareholder Meeting unless you provide a “legal proxy,” which you must obtain from your broker, bank or other nominee.

Under the rules of the NYSEA, brokers who hold shares in “street name” for a beneficial owner of those shares typically have the authority to vote in their discretion on “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, brokers are not permitted to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the approval of matters that the NYSEA determines to be “non-routine” without specific instructions from the beneficial owner. It is expected that all proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting are “non-routine” matters and therefore, JWSM does not expect there to be any broker non-votes at the Shareholder Meeting.

If you are a JWSM shareholder holding your shares in “street name” and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other nominee will not vote your shares on the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal. Accordingly, your bank, broker, or other nominee can vote your shares at the Shareholder Meeting only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares as soon as possible in accordance with directions you provide.

Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of each of the proposals as a matter of Cayman Islands law.

Does the Board recommend voting “FOR” the approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal?

Yes. After careful consideration of the terms and conditions of the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal, the Board has determined that the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of JWSM and its shareholders. The Board recommends that JWSM’s shareholders vote “FOR” the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal.

What interests do JWSM’s directors and officers have in the approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal?

JWSM’s directors and officers have interests in the Extension Amendment Proposal that may be different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder. These interests include, among others, ownership, directly or indirectly through the Sponsor, of Class B Ordinary Shares and Private Placement Warrants. See the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor, JWSM’s Directors, Officers and Initial Shareholders” in this proxy statement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What interests do JWSM’s directors and officers have in the approval of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal?

JWSM’s directors and officers have interests in the Founder Share Amendment Proposal that may be different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder. These interests include, among others, ownership, directly or indirectly through the Sponsor, of Class B Ordinary Shares and Private Placement Warrants. See the section entitled “Proposal No. 2 — The Founder Share Amendment Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor, JWSM’s Directors, Officers and Initial Shareholders” in this proxy statement.

Do I have appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights if I object to the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal?

No. There are no appraisal rights available to JWSM’s shareholders in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal. There are no dissenters’ rights available to JWSM’s shareholders in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal under Cayman Islands law. However, you may elect to have your shares redeemed in connection with the adoption of the Extension Amendment Proposal as described under “How do I exercise my redemption rights” below.

If I am a Public Warrant (as defined below) holder, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my Public Warrants?

No. The holders of warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (with a whole warrant representing the right to acquire one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share) (the “Public Warrants”) have no redemption rights with respect to such Public Warrants.

What do I need to do now?

You are urged to read carefully and consider the information contained in this proxy statement and to consider how the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Founder Share Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal will affect you as a shareholder. You should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement and on the enclosed proxy card or, if you hold your shares through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, on the voting instruction form provided by the broker, bank or nominee.

How do I exercise my redemption rights?

If you are a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares and wish to exercise your right to redeem your Class A Ordinary Shares, you must:

(a) hold Class A Ordinary Shares or (b) hold Class A Ordinary Shares through Units and elect to separate your Units into the underlying Class A Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares; and

II.

prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 23, 2024 (two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting) (a) submit a written request to the Transfer Agent that JWSM redeem your Class A Ordinary Shares for cash and (b) deliver your Class A Ordinary Shares to the Transfer Agent, physically or electronically through the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

The address of the Transfer Agent is listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Holders of Units must elect to separate the underlying Class A Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares. If holders hold their Units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the Units into the underlying Class A Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants, or if a holder holds Units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the Transfer Agent directly and instruct it to do so.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal and contingent upon the effectiveness of the implementation of the Charter Extension, any holder of Class A Ordinary Shares will be entitled to request that their Class A Ordinary Shares be redeemed for a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the Shareholder Meeting, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then-outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares. As of January 8, 2024, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement, this would have amounted to approximately $10.94 per public share. However, the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of our creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of our public shareholders. Therefore, the per share distribution from the Trust Account in such a situation may be less than originally anticipated due to such claims. We anticipate that the funds to be distributed to public shareholders electing to redeem their Class A Ordinary Shares will be distributed promptly after the Shareholder Meeting.

Any request for redemption, once made by a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with the consent of the Board. If you deliver your shares for redemption to the Transfer Agent and later decide prior to the Shareholder Meeting not to elect redemption, you may request that JWSM instruct the Transfer Agent to return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting the Transfer Agent at the phone number or address listed at the end of this section. We will be required to honor such request only if made prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests.

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights must be received by the Transfer Agent prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests and, thereafter, with the consent of the Board. No request for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the Transfer Agent by 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 23, 2024 (two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting).

If a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares properly makes a request for redemption and the Class A Ordinary Shares are delivered as described above, then, JWSM will redeem Class A Ordinary Shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the Shareholder Meeting. If you are a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares and you exercise your redemption rights, it will not result in the loss of any Public Warrants that you may hold.

What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising your redemption rights will depend on your particular facts and circumstances. Accordingly, you are urged to consult your tax advisor to determine your tax consequences from the exercise of your redemption rights, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax laws in light of your particular circumstances. For additional discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to the exercise of these redemption rights, see “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights.”

What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials for the Shareholder Meeting?

You may receive more than one set of voting materials for the Shareholder Meeting, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast your vote with respect to all of your shares.

Who will solicit and pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Shareholder Meeting?

JWSM will pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Shareholder Meeting. JWSM has engaged Morrow Sodali LLC (“Morrow Sodali”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Shareholder Meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

JWSM will also reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of Class A Ordinary Shares for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of Class A Ordinary Shares and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. The directors, officers and employees of JWSM may also solicit proxies by telephone, by facsimile, by mail or on the Internet. They will not be paid any additional amounts for soliciting proxies.

The Proposals at the Shareholder Meeting

At the Shareholder Meeting, JWSM shareholders will consider and vote on the following proposals:

Proposal No. 1 — Extension Amendment Proposal — To amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which JWSM has to consummate a business combination (the “Charter Extension”) from February 4, 2024 (the “Amended Termination Date”) to March 4, 2024 (the “Charter Extension Date”) and to allow JWSM, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the Charter Extension Date, by resolution of the Board, if requested by Mustang Sponsor, LLC, (the “Sponsor”), and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until February 4, 2025 (each, an “Additional Charter Extension

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Date”), or a total of up to twelve months after the Charter Extension Date, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”);

Proposal No. 2 — Founder Share Amendment Proposal — To amend, by way of special resolution, JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to provide for the right of a holder of JWSM’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares” or the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) to convert such Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of a business combination at the election of the holder (the “Founder Share Amendment Proposal”); and

Voting Power; Record Date

As a shareholder of JWSM, you have a right to vote on certain matters affecting JWSM. The proposals that will be presented at the Shareholder Meeting and upon which you are being asked to vote are summarized above and fully set forth in this proxy statement. You will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Shareholder Meeting if you owned Ordinary Shares at the close of business on December 19, 2023, which is the Record Date for the Shareholder Meeting. You are entitled to one vote for each Ordinary Share that you owned as of the close of business on the Record Date. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the Record Date, there were 27,978,614 issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, of which 2,103,614 Class A Ordinary Shares are held by JWSM public shareholders and 26,075,000 Ordinary Shares are held by the JWSM Initial Shareholders.

Recommendation of the Board

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS
THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THESE PROPOSALS

Quorum

The presence (which would include presence at the virtual Shareholder Meeting), in person or by proxy, of shareholders holding a majority of the Ordinary Shares at the Shareholder Meeting constitutes a quorum at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. The JWSM Initial Shareholders, who own 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares

TABLE OF CONTENTS

as of the Record Date, will count towards this quorum. As a result, no Ordinary Shares held by public shareholders would be required to be present at the Shareholder Meeting to achieve a quorum.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of any of the proposals voted upon at the Shareholder Meeting.

Under NYSEA rules, if a shareholder holds their shares in “street” name through a bank, broker or other nominee and the shareholder does not instruct their broker, bank or other nominee how to vote their shares on a proposal, the broker, bank or other nominee has the authority to vote the shares in its discretion on certain “routine” matters. However, banks, brokers and other nominees are not authorized to exercise their voting discretion on any “non-routine” matters. This can result in a “broker non-vote,” which occurs on a proposal when (i) a bank, broker or other nominee has discretionary authority to vote on one or more “routine” proposals to be voted on at a meeting of shareholders, (ii) there are one or more “non-routine” proposals to be voted on at the meeting for which the bank, broker or other nominee does not have authority to vote without instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares and (iii) the beneficial owner fails to provide the bank, broker or other nominee with voting instructions on a “non-routine” matter.

We believe that all of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting will be considered non-routine matters. As a result, if you hold your shares in street name, your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee cannot vote your shares on any of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting without your instruction.

Because all of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting are “non-routine” matters, banks, brokers and other nominees will not have authority to vote on any proposals unless instructed, so JWSM does not expect there to be any broker non-votes at the Shareholder Meeting.

Vote Required for Approval

The JWSM Initial Shareholders have informed us of their intent to vote all of their Ordinary Shares in favor of the proposals being presented at the Shareholder Meeting. As of the date of this proxy statement, the JWSM Initial Shareholders own 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares.

Voting Your Shares

If you were a holder of record of Ordinary Shares as of the close of business on December 19, 2023, the record date for the Shareholder Meeting, you may vote with respect to the proposals in person or virtually at the Shareholder Meeting, or by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. Your proxy card shows the number of Ordinary Shares that you own. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted.

There are three ways to vote your Ordinary Shares at the Shareholder Meeting:

Revoking Your Proxy

If you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before the Shareholder Meeting or at the Shareholder Meeting by doing any one of the following:

•

you may send another proxy card with a later date;

•

you may notify JWSM’s Chief Executive Officer in writing to Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation, 1601 Washington Avenue, Suite 800, Miami Beach, FL 33139, before the Shareholder Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

Under Cayman law, a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

Under Cayman law, an ordinary resolution requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

you may attend the Shareholder Meeting, revoke your proxy and vote in person, as indicated above.

No Additional Matters

The Shareholder Meeting has been called only to consider and vote on the approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, other than procedural matters incident to the conduct of the Shareholder Meeting, no other matters may be considered at the Shareholder Meeting if they are not included in this proxy statement, which serves as the notice of the Shareholder Meeting.

Who Can Answer Your Questions about Voting

If you are a JWSM shareholder and have any questions about how to vote or direct a vote in respect of your Ordinary Shares, you may call Morrow Sodali, our proxy solicitor, by calling (800) 662-5200 (toll-free), or banks and brokers can call (203) 658-9400, or by emailing JWSM.info@investor.morrowsodali.com.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to the Memorandum and Articles of Association, holders of Class A Ordinary Shares may seek to redeem their shares for cash, regardless of whether they vote for or against, or whether they abstain from voting on, the Extension Amendment Proposal. In connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal and contingent upon the effectiveness of the implementation of the Charter Extension, any shareholder holding Class A Ordinary Shares may demand that JWSM redeem such shares for a full pro rata portion of the Trust Account (which, for illustrative purposes, was $10.94 per share as of January 8, 2024, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of the accompanying proxy statement), calculated as of two business days prior to the Shareholder Meeting. If a holder properly seeks redemption as described in this section, JWSM will redeem these shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account and the holder will no longer own these shares following the Shareholder Meeting.

As a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares, you will be entitled to receive cash for any Class A Ordinary Shares to be redeemed only if you:

hold Class A Ordinary Shares;

submit a written request to Continental, JWSM’s transfer agent, in which you (i) request that JWSM redeem all or a portion of your Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, and (ii) identify yourself as the beneficial holder of the Class A Ordinary Shares and provide your legal name, phone number and address; and

deliver your Class A Ordinary Shares to Continental, JWSM’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their Class A Ordinary Shares in the manner described above prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 23, 2024 (two business days before the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting) (the “Redemption Deadline”) in order for their shares to be redeemed.

The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself in writing as a beneficial holder and provide its legal name, phone number and address to Continental in order to validly redeem its shares.

If you hold your shares in “street name,” you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Shares of JWSM that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through DTC’s DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder.

Any request for redemption, once made by a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares, may not be withdrawn following the Redemption Deadline, unless the Board determines (in its sole discretion) to permit such withdrawal of a redemption request (which it may do in whole or in part).

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights must be received by Continental, JWSM’s transfer agent, at least two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting. No request for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s Class A Ordinary Shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to Continental, JWSM’s transfer agent, prior to 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on January 23, 2024 (two business days before the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its Class A Ordinary Shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without our prior consent. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash, without our prior consent.

The closing price of Class A Ordinary Shares on January 8, 2024 was $10.90 per share. The cash held in the Trust Account on such date was approximately $23,023,148 (including interest not previously released to JWSM to pay its taxes) (approximately $10.94 per Class A Ordinary Share). The Redemption price per share will be calculated based on the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to JWSM to pay its taxes two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting. Prior to exercising redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of Class A Ordinary Shares as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their ordinary shares in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. JWSM cannot assure its shareholders that they will be able to sell their Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when its shareholders wish to sell their shares.

If a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares exercises his, her or its redemption rights, then he, she or it will be exchanging his, her or its Class A Ordinary Shares for cash and will no longer own those shares. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly demand redemption by delivering your share certificate (either physically or electronically) to JWSM’s transfer agent two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting.

For a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for shareholders with respect to the exercise of these redemption rights, see “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights.” The consequences of a redemption to any particular shareholder will depend on that shareholder’s particular facts and circumstances. Accordingly, you are urged to consult your tax advisor to determine your tax consequences from the exercise of your redemption rights, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax laws in light of your particular circumstances.

Appraisal Rights and Dissenters’ Rights

There are no appraisal rights available to JWSM’s shareholders in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal. There are no dissenters’ rights available to JWSM’s shareholders in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal under Cayman Islands law. However, holders of Public Shares may elect to have their shares redeemed in connection with the adoption of the Extension Amendment Proposal as described under “Redemption Rights” above.

Proxy Solicitation Costs

JWSM is soliciting proxies on behalf of the Board. This proxy solicitation is being made by mail, but also may be made by telephone or in person. JWSM has engaged Morrow Sodali to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Shareholder Meeting. JWSM and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person. JWSM will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — THE EXTENSION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

JWSM is proposing to amend its Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which JWSM has to consummate a Business Combination to the Charter Extension Date so as to give JWSM additional time to complete a Business Combination.

Without the Charter Extension, JWSM believes that JWSM may not be able to complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date. If that were to occur, JWSM would be forced to liquidate.

As contemplated by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the holders of JWSM’s Public Shares may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in exchange for their pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account if the Charter Extension is implemented.

Accordingly, if the market price of the Class A Ordinary Shares were to remain the same until the date of the Shareholder Meeting, exercising redemption rights would result in a public shareholder receiving approximately $0.04 more per share than if the shares were sold in the open market (based on the per share redemption price as of January 8, 2024). JWSM cannot assure shareholders that they will be able to sell their Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is lower than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when such shareholders wish to sell their shares. JWSM believes that such redemption right enables its public shareholders to determine whether to sustain their investments for an additional period if JWSM does not complete a Business Combination on or before the Termination Date.

Reasons for the Extension Amendment Proposal

JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that JWSM has until February 4, 2024 to complete a Business Combination. JWSM and its officers and directors agreed that they would not seek to amend JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to allow for a longer period of time to complete a Business Combination unless JWSM provided holders of its Public Shares with the right to seek redemption of their Public Shares in connection therewith. The Board believes that it is in the best interests of JWSM shareholders that the Charter Extension be obtained so that JWSM will have an additional amount of time to consummate a Business Combination. Without the Charter Extension, JWSM believes that JWSM may not be able to complete a Business Combination on or before February 4, 2024. If that were to occur, JWSM would be forced to liquidate.

The Extension Amendment Proposal is essential to allowing JWSM additional time to consummate a Business Combination. Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Charter Extension.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Account for each such monthly extension, for an aggregate deposit of up to $275,000 (if all eleven additional monthly extensions are exercised), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by JWSM to the Lender. If JWSM completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If JWSM does not complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is Not Approved

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved, and a Business Combination is not completed on or before the Termination Date, then, as contemplated by and in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association, JWSM will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public 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 JWSM to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then- outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of JWSM’s remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to JWSM’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to JWSM’s warrants, which will expire worthless in the event JWSM dissolves and liquidates the Trust Account.

The Sponsor, the officers and directors and the initial shareholders of JWSM have waived their rights to participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to the 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares held by them.

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is Approved

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved, JWSM shall procure that all filings required to be made with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal to extend the time it has to complete a Business Combination until the Charter Extension Date are made. JWSM will then continue to attempt to consummate a Business Combination until the Charter Extension Date. JWSM will remain a reporting company under the Exchange Act and its Class A Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants will remain publicly traded during this time.

Interests of the Sponsor, JWSM’s Directors, Officers and Initial Shareholders

When you consider the recommendation of the Board, JWSM shareholders should be aware that aside from their interests as shareholders, the Sponsor, certain members of the Board, officers and the initial shareholders of JWSM have interests that are different from, or in addition to, those of other shareholders generally. The Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in recommending to JWSM shareholders that they approve the Extension Amendment Proposal. JWSM shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal:

•

the fact that the Sponsor paid $22,700,000 for 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants, each of which is exercisable commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of our Initial Public Offering and 30 days following the closing of a Business Combination for one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share; if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and we do not consummate a Business Combination by February 4, 2024, then the proceeds from the sale of the JWSM Private Placement Warrants will be part of the liquidating distribution to the public shareholders and the warrants held by our Sponsor will be worthless;

•

TABLE OF CONTENTS

holding 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares in the aggregate) and the $22,700,000 purchase price for 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants. Subsequent to the initial purchase of the Class B Ordinary Shares by the Sponsor, the Sponsor transferred 25,000 Class B Ordinary Shares to each of Elizabeth C. Fascitelli, David A. Helfand and John J. Legere prior to the closing of our Initial Public Offering at a nominal purchase price. Assuming a trading price of $10.90 per Class A Ordinary Share and $0.04 per Public Warrant (based upon the respective closing prices of the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Public Warrants on the NYSEA on January 8, 2024, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of the accompanying proxy statement), the 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares and 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants would have an implied aggregate market value of $282,491,500. Even if the trading price of the shares of Class A Ordinary Shares were as low as $0.88 per share, the aggregate market value of the Class B Ordinary Shares alone (without taking into account the value of the Private Placement Warrants) would be approximately equal to the initial investment in JWSM by the JWSM Initial Shareholders. As a result, if a Business Combination is completed, the JWSM Initial Shareholders are likely to be able to make a substantial profit on their investment in JWSM at a time when the Class A Ordinary Shares have lost significant value. On the other hand, if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and JWSM liquidates without completing a Business Combination before February 4, 2024, the JWSM Initial Shareholders will lose their entire investment in JWSM;

•

the fact that the Sponsor, JWSM’s directors, officers and initial shareholders have agreed not to redeem any Ordinary Shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination or the Extension Amendment Proposal;

•

the fact that the JWSM Initial Shareholders and JWSM’s other current officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Ordinary Shares (other than Public Shares) held by them if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and JWSM fails to complete a Business Combination by February 4, 2024;

•

the indemnification of JWSM’s existing directors and officers and the liability insurance maintained by JWSM;

•

the fact that the Sponsor and JWSM’s officers and directors will lose their entire investment in JWSM and will not be reimbursed for any loans extended, fees due or out-of-pocket expenses if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and a Business Combination is not consummated by February 4, 2024. As of the date of this proxy statement there are loans extended, fees due or outstanding out-of-pocket expenses amounting in the aggregate to $1,000,000 for which the Sponsor and JWSM’s officers and directors are awaiting reimbursement; and

•

the fact that if the Trust Account is liquidated, including in the event JWSM is unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, Sponsor has agreed to indemnify JWSM to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.00 per JWSM public share, or such lesser per public share amount as is in the Trust Account on the Termination Date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which JWSM has entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to JWSM, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account.

•

on January 10, 2024, JWSM and the parties to the Insider Letter waived a restriction imposed by Section 3 and Section 4(b) of the Insider Letter on the ability of former director David Helfand to redeem any Public Shares held by him. The Founder Shares held by Mr. Helfand will continue to be bound by the applicable restrictions of the Insider Letter.

If a holder properly seeks redemption as described in this section, JWSM will redeem these shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account and the holder will no longer own these shares following the Shareholder Meeting.

As a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares, you will be entitled to receive cash for any Class A Ordinary Shares to be redeemed only if you:

(a)

hold Class A Ordinary Shares;

(b)

(c)

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal.

As of the date of this proxy statement, the JWSM Initial Shareholders have agreed to vote any Ordinary Shares owned by them in favor of the Extension Amendment Proposal. As of the date hereof, the JWSM Initial Shareholders own approximately 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares. As a result, in addition to the Initial Shareholders, approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of no Ordinary Shares held by public shareholders regardless of how many Ordinary Shares are represented at the Shareholder Meeting and cast votes.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be voted upon is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as a special resolution that:

(a) Article 49.7 of JWSM’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 49.7:

If the Company completes a Business Combination, it will repay the amounts loaned under the promissory note. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination by the applicable Termination Date, such promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.”

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT JWSM SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE EXTENSION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — THE FOUNDER SHARE AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

JWSM is proposing to amend its Memorandum and Articles of Association to allow JWSM to convert the Founder Shares to Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis at any point prior to the business combination at the option of the holder.

Upon conversion of the Founder Shares to Class A Ordinary Shares, such Class A Ordinary Shares converted from Founder Shares would have been entitled to receive funds from the trust account Trust Account through redemptions or otherwise, except that such have agreed not to be entitled to funds from the Trust Account pursuant to obligations set forth in the letter agreement. Additionally, the Class A Ordinary Shares converted from Founder Shares will be subject to all of the restrictions applicable to Founder Shares, including the prohibition on transferring, assigning or selling Founder Shares until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of our initial business combination or (B) subsequent to our initial business combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, or (y) the date following the completion of our initial business combination on which we complete a liquidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property.

Reasons for the Founder Share Amendment Proposal

JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that the Founder Shares automatically convert to Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis on the day of the consummation of a Business Combination. The purpose of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal is to allow conversion of the Founder Shares at any time prior to a Business Combination. This flexibility may aid JWSM in retaining investors necessary to continue to pursue a Business Combination.

JWSM’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Ordinary Shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the Special General Meeting, is required to amend its Memorandum and Articles of Association.

If the Founder Share Amendment Proposal Is Not Approved

If the Founder Share Amendment Proposal is not approved, holders of our Founder Shares (including our Sponsor) will not be permitted to convert their Founder Shares into shares of Class A Ordinary Shares before the consummation of a Business Combination.

If holders of Founder Shares cannot convert their shares, it may be more difficult to retain investors necessary to complete a Business Combination. If we have not consummated the business combination by this date, we will liquidate, as described under “Proposal No.1 — Extension Amendment Proposal — If the Extension Is Not Approved.”

There will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to JWSM’s warrants, which will expire worthless in the event we wind up. In the event of a liquidation, our Sponsor, officers and directors will not receive any monies held in the Trust Account as a result of their ownership of the Founder Shares and warrants.

If the Founder Share Amendment Proposal Is Approved

If the Founder Share Amendment Proposal is approved, JWSM will file an amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Cayman Registrar to allow conversion of Class B Ordinary Shares to Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-to-one basis prior to a business combination at the option of the holder. JWSM will remain a reporting company under the Exchange Act and we expect that its

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Ordinary Shares and public warrants will remain publicly traded. JWSM will then continue to work to consummate a business combination.

You are not being asked to vote on a business combination at this time. If the Founder Share Amendment is implemented, provided that you are a shareholder on the record date for a meeting to consider the business combination, you will retain the right to vote on any potential business combination when it is submitted to shareholders, and you will have the right to redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash in the event the business combination is approved and completed. You will also be entitled to receive your share of the funds in the Trust Account if we have not consummated a business combination by the appropriate date.

Interests of the Sponsor, JWSM’s Directors, Officers and Initial Shareholders

When you consider the recommendation of the Board, JWSM shareholders should be aware that aside from their interests as shareholders, the Sponsor and certain members of the Board and officers of JWSM have interests that are different from, or in addition to, those of other shareholders generally. The Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in recommending to JWSM shareholders that they approve the Founder Share Amendment Proposal. JWSM shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Founder Share Amendment Proposal:

•

the fact that the JWSM Initial Shareholders, including the Sponsor (and certain of JWSM’s officers and directors who are members of the Sponsor), have invested in JWSM an aggregate of $22,725,000, comprised of the $25,000 purchase price for 8,625,000 Class B Ordinary Shares (which, following the share dividends on October 28, 2020, January 13, 2021 and February 1, 2021, led to the Sponsor holding 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares in the aggregate) and the $22,700,000 purchase price for 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants. Subsequent to the initial purchase of the Class B Ordinary Shares by the Sponsor, the Sponsor transferred 25,000 Class B Ordinary Shares to each of Elizabeth C. Fascitelli, David A. Helfand and John J. Legere prior to the closing of our Initial Public Offering at a nominal purchase price. Assuming a trading price of $10.90 per Class A Ordinary Share and $0.04 per Public Warrant (based upon the respective closing prices of the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Public Warrants on the NYSEA on January 8, 2024, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of the accompanying proxy statement), the 25,875,000 Class B Ordinary Shares and 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants would have an implied aggregate market value of $282,491,500. Even if the trading price of the shares of Class A Ordinary Shares were as low as $0.88 per share, the aggregate market value of the Class B Ordinary Shares alone (without taking into account the value of the Private Placement Warrants) would be approximately equal to the initial investment in JWSM by the JWSM Initial Shareholders. As a result, if a Business Combination is completed, the JWSM Initial Shareholders are likely to be able to make a substantial profit on their investment in JWSM at a time when the Class A Ordinary Shares have lost significant value. On the other hand, if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and JWSM liquidates without completing a Business Combination before February 4, 2024, the JWSM Initial Shareholders will lose their entire investment in JWSM;

•

the fact that the JWSM Initial Shareholders have agreed not to redeem any Ordinary Shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination or the Extension Amendment Proposal or Founder Share Amendment Proposal;

•

the fact that the JWSM Initial Shareholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Ordinary Shares (other than Public Shares) held by them if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and JWSM fails to complete a Business Combination by February 4, 2024;

•

the indemnification of JWSM’s existing directors and officers and the liability insurance maintained by JWSM;

•

the fact that the Sponsor and JWSM’s officers and directors will lose their entire investment in JWSM and will not be reimbursed for any loans extended, fees due or outstanding out-of-pocket expenses if the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved and a Business Combination is not consummated by February 4, 2024. As of the date of this proxy statement there are loans extended, fees due or outstanding out-of-pocket expenses amounting in the aggregate to $1,000,000 for which the Sponsor and JWSM’s officers and directors are awaiting reimbursement; and

•

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds (2/3) majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, and who vote thereon, at the Annual General Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Annual General Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal.

As of the date of this proxy statement, the JWSM Initial Shareholders have agreed to vote any Ordinary Shares owned by them in favor of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal. As of the date hereof, the JWSM Initial Shareholders own approximately 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares and have not purchased any Public Shares but may do so at any time. As a result, in addition to the Initial Shareholders, approval of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of no Ordinary Shares held by public shareholders regardless of how many Ordinary Shares are represented at the Shareholder Meeting and cast votes.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be voted upon is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as a special resolution that:

(a) Article 17.2 of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 17.2:

(b) Article 17.3 of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 17.3:

“Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other Equity-linked Securities, are issued or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts

TABLE OF CONTENTS

offered in the IPO and in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares at the time of the closing of a Business Combination at an adjusted ratio so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20 per cent of the sum of: (a) the total number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the IPO, plus (b) the total number of Class A Shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any Equity-linked Securities or rights issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor, its Affiliates or any Director or Officer upon conversion of working capital loans.”

(c) Article 49.10 of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new Article 49.10:

(a)

receive funds from the Trust Account; or

(b)

vote as a class with Public Shares on a Business Combination.”

Recommendation of the Board

After careful consideration of all relevant factors, our Board has determined that the Founder Share Amendment is advisable and in the best interests of JWSM and its shareholders. Our Board has approved and declared advisable adoption of the Founder Share Amendment Proposal.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT JWSM SHAREHOLDERS VOTE
“FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE FOUNDER SHARE AMENDMENT PROPOSAL.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL NO. 3 — THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

The Adjournment Proposal asks shareholders to approve the adjournment of the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates if necessary (i) to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal or (ii) if the holders of Public Shares have elected to redeem an amount of shares in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal such that JWSM would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of the NYSEA.

Consequences if the Adjournment Proposal is Not Approved

If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by JWSM’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are insufficient Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal. In such events, the Charter Extension would not be implemented.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of the Adjournment Proposal.

As of the date of this proxy statement, the JWSM Initial Shareholders have agreed to vote any Ordinary Shares owned by them in favor of the Adjournment Proposal. As of the date hereof, the JWSM Initial Shareholders own approximately 93.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares and have not purchased any public shares but may do so at any time. As a result, in addition to the Initial Shareholders, approval of the Adjournment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of no Ordinary Shares held by public shareholders regardless of how many Ordinary Shares are represented at the Shareholder Meeting and cast votes.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be voted upon is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the adjournment of the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates if necessary, (i) to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share in the capital of JWSM represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Shareholder Meeting or to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Founder Share Amendment Proposal or (ii) if the holders of Public Shares have elected to redeem an amount of shares in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal such that JWSM would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange — American LLC.”

Recommendation of the Board

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT JWSM SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR”
THE APPROVAL OF THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL.

CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR SHAREHOLDERS EXERCISING REDEMPTION RIGHTS

The following discussion is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for Redeeming U.S. Holders and Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders (each as defined below) of public shares that elect to have their public shares redeemed for cash if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved. This section applies only to investors that hold Public Shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular shareholder in light of its particular circumstances or status, including:

•

financial institutions or financial services entities;

•

broker-dealers;

•

S corporations;

•

taxpayers that are subject to the mark-to-market accounting rules;

•

tax-exempt entities;

•

governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof;

•

tax-qualified retirement plans;

•

insurance companies;

•

regulated investment companies or real estate investment trusts;

•

expatriates or former long-term residents or citizens of the United States;

•

persons that directly, indirectly, or constructively own five percent or more of our voting shares or five percent or more of the total value of all classes of our shares;

•

persons that acquired our securities pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation;

•

persons that hold our securities as part of a straddle, constructive sale, hedging, conversion, synthetic security or other integrated or similar transaction;

•

persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

•

persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

•

controlled foreign corporations;

•

corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

•

“qualified foreign pension funds” (within the meaning of Section 897(l)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and entities whose interests are held by qualified foreign pension funds;

•

accrual method taxpayers that file applicable financial statements as described in Section 451(b) of the Code;

•

foreign corporations with respect to which there are one or more United States shareholders within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(b)-3(b)(1)(ii);

•

passive foreign investment companies or their shareholders; or

•

Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below, and except as otherwise discussed below).

This discussion is based on current U.S. federal income tax laws as in effect on the date hereof, which is subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, which may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences described herein. Furthermore, this discussion does not address any aspect of U.S. federal non-income tax laws, such as gift, estate or Medicare net investment income tax laws, or state, local or non-U.S. laws. JWSM has not sought, and JWSM does not intend to seek, a ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) as to any U.S. federal income tax considerations described herein. The IRS may disagree with the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

discussion herein, and its determination may be upheld by a court. Moreover, there can be no assurance that future legislation, regulations, administrative rulings or court decisions will not adversely affect the accuracy of the statements in this discussion.

This discussion does not consider the U.S. federal income tax treatment of entities or arrangements treated as partnerships or other pass-through entities (including branches) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (any such entity or arrangement, a “Flow-Through Entity”) or investors that hold our securities through Flow-Through Entities. If a Flow-Through Entity is the beneficial owner of our securities, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investor holding our securities through a Flow-Through Entity generally will depend on the status of such investor and the activities of such investor and such Flow-Through Entity.

If you hold our securities through a Flow-Through Entity, we urge you to consult your tax advisor.

THE FOLLOWING IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. EACH HOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH HOLDER OF EXERCISING REDEMPTION RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS.

For purposes of this discussion, because any unit consisting of one Class A Ordinary Share and one fourth of one warrant (with a whole warrant representing the right to acquire one Class A Ordinary Share) is separable at the option of the holder, JWSM is treating any Class A Ordinary Share and one fourth of one warrant to acquire one Class A Ordinary Share held by a holder in the form of a single unit as separate instruments and is assuming that the unit itself will not be treated as an integrated instrument. Accordingly, the cancellation or separation of the units in connection with the exercise of redemption rights generally should not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This position is not free from doubt, and no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a contrary position.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to U.S. Shareholders

This section is addressed to Redeeming U.S. Holders (as defined below) of JWSM’s Public Shares that elect to have their Public Shares redeemed for cash as described in the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal — Redemption Rights.” For purposes of this discussion, a “Redeeming U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner that so redeems its shares and is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•

an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

•

a corporation (or other entity that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized (or treated as created or organized) in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•

an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

•

any trust if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a United States person.

Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General

Subject to the passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) rules discussed below under the heading “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a Redeeming U.S. Holder of Public Shares that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash in exchange for all or a portion of its Public Shares will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as a sale of the Public Shares redeemed under Section 302 of the Code or is treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code. If the redemption qualifies as a sale of such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s shares, such Redeeming U.S. Holder will generally be required to recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash received and the tax basis of the shares redeemed. Such gain or loss should be treated as capital gain or loss if such shares were held as a capital asset on the date of the redemption. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period

TABLE OF CONTENTS

for such shares exceeds one year at the time of the redemption. A Redeeming U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s shares generally will equal the cost of such shares.

The redemption generally will qualify as a sale of such shares if the redemption either (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the Redeeming U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete redemption” of such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s interest in JWSM or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to such Redeeming U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

For purposes of such tests, a Redeeming U.S. Holder takes into account not only shares directly owned by such Redeeming U.S. Holder, but also shares that are constructively owned by such Redeeming U.S. Holder. A Redeeming U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to public shares owned directly, public shares owned by certain related individuals and entities in which such Redeeming U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such Redeeming U.S. Holder, as well as any shares such Redeeming U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include shares which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Public Warrants.

The redemption generally will be “substantially disproportionate” with respect to a Redeeming U.S. Holder if the percentage of JWSM’s outstanding voting shares that such Redeeming U.S. Holder directly or constructively owns immediately after the redemption is less than 80 percent of the percentage of JWSM’s outstanding voting shares that such Redeeming U.S. Holder directly or constructively owned immediately before the redemption, and such Redeeming U.S. Holder immediately after the redemption actually and constructively owns less than 50 percent of the total combined voting power of JWSM. There will be a complete redemption of such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all of the shares directly or constructively owned by such Redeeming U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the shares directly owned by such Redeeming U.S. Holder are redeemed and such Redeeming U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of the shares owned by certain family members and such Redeeming U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other shares. The redemption will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if it results in a “meaningful reduction” of such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in JWSM. Whether the redemption will result in a “meaningful reduction” in such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest will depend on the particular facts and circumstances applicable to it. The IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation that exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”

If none of the above tests are satisfied, the redemption will be treated as a distribution with respect to the shares under Section 302 of the Code, in which case the Redeeming U.S. Holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution. Such distribution generally will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Such dividends will be taxable to a corporate U.S. Holder at regular rates and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to domestic corporations in respect of dividends received from other domestic corporations. Assuming JWSM is a PFIC (as discussed below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,”) such dividends will be taxable to an individual Redeeming U.S. Holder at regular rates and will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation on certain dividends received from a “qualified foreign corporation.” Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s public shares. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s public shares. After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis of the Redeeming U.S. Holder in the redeemed public shares will be added to the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining public shares, or, if it has none, to the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Public Warrants or possibly in other shares constructively owned by it.

ALL REDEEMING U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF A REDEMPTION OF ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR PUBLIC SHARES PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

A foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporation will be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income, or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year (ordinarily, but subject to exceptions, determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year), including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of assets giving rise to passive income.

Because JWSM is a blank check company with no current active business, based upon the composition of its income and assets, and upon a review of its financial statements, JWSM believes that it likely was a PFIC for its most recent taxable year ended on December 31, 2023, and will continue to be treated as a PFIC until we no longer satisfy the PFIC tests (although, as stated below, in general the PFIC rules would continue to apply to any U.S. holder who held our securities at any time we were considered a PFIC).

If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a Redeeming U.S. Holder of our shares, rights or warrants and, in the case of our shares, the Redeeming U.S. Holder did not make either a timely QEF election for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) shares or a timely “mark to market” election, in each case as described below, such holder generally will be subject to special rules with respect to:

•

any gain recognized by the Redeeming U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of its shares, rights or warrant (which would include the redemption, if such redemption is treated as a sale under the rules discussed under the heading “— Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General,” above); and

•

any “excess distribution” made to the Redeeming U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such Redeeming U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such Redeeming U.S. Holder in respect of the shares during the three preceding taxable years of such Redeeming U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares), which may include the redemption to the extent such redemption is treated as a distribution under the rules discussed under the heading “— Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General,” above.

Under these special rules,

•

the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares or warrants;

•

the amount allocated to the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of our first taxable year in which we are a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;

•

the amount allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the Redeeming U.S. Holder and included in its holding period will be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the Redeeming U.S. Holder; and

•

an additional tax equal to the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the Redeeming U.S. Holder in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year described in the immediately preceding clause of the Redeeming U.S. Holder.

In general, if we are determined to be a PFIC, a Redeeming U.S. Holder may avoid the PFIC tax consequences described above in respect to our shares (but not our warrants) by making a timely QEF election (if eligible to do so) for the taxable year that is the first year in the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period of our shares during which we are treated as a PFIC or, if in a later year, the Redeeming U.S. Holder made a QEF election along with a purging election. A QEF election is an election to include in income its pro rata share of our net capital gains (as long-term capital gain) and other earnings and profits

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case whether or not distributed, in the taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder in which or with which our taxable year ends. In general, a QEF election must be made on or before the due date (including extensions) for filing such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s tax return for the taxable year for which the election relates. A Redeeming U.S. Holder may make a separate election to defer the payment of taxes on undistributed income inclusions under the QEF rules, but if deferred, any such taxes will be subject to an interest charge. The purging election creates a deemed sale of such shares at their fair market value. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above. As a result of the purging election, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will have a new basis and holding period in the shares for purposes of the PFIC rules.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder may not make a QEF election with respect to its warrants to acquire our shares. As a result, if a Redeeming U.S. Holder sells or otherwise disposes of such warrants (other than upon exercise of such warrants), any gain recognized generally will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above, if we were a PFIC at any time during the period the Redeeming U.S. Holder held the warrants. If a Redeeming U.S. Holder that exercises such warrants properly makes a QEF election with respect to the newly acquired shares (or has previously made a QEF election with respect to our shares), the QEF election will apply to the newly acquired shares, but the adverse tax consequences relating to PFIC shares, adjusted to take into account the current income inclusions resulting from the QEF election, will continue to apply with respect to such newly acquired shares (which generally will be deemed to have a holding period for purposes of the PFIC rules that includes the period the Redeeming U.S. Holder held the warrants), unless the Redeeming U.S. Holder makes a purging election. The purging election creates a deemed sale of such shares at their fair market value. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above. As a result of the purging election, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will have a new basis and holding period in the shares acquired upon the exercise of the warrants for purposes of the PFIC rules.

The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and, once made, can be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A QEF election may not be made with respect to our warrants. A Redeeming U.S. Holder generally makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 (Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund), including the information provided in a PFIC annual information statement, to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return for the tax year to which the election relates. Retroactive QEF elections generally may be made only by filing a protective statement with such return and if certain other conditions are met or with the consent of the IRS. Redeeming U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a retroactive QEF election under their particular circumstances.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder’s ability to make a QEF Election with respect to JWSM is contingent upon, among other things, the provision by JWSM of a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” to such Redeeming U.S. Holder. Upon written request, we will endeavor to provide to a Redeeming U.S. Holder such information as the IRS may require, including a PFIC Annual Information Statement, in order to enable the Redeeming U.S. Holder to make and maintain a QEF Election. There is no assurance, however, that we would timely provide such required information.

If a Redeeming U.S. Holder has made a QEF election with respect to our shares, and the special tax and interest charge rules do not apply to such shares (because of a timely QEF election for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) such shares or a purge of the PFIC taint pursuant to a purging election, as described above), any gain recognized on the sale of our shares generally will be taxable as capital gain and no interest charge will be imposed. As discussed above, Redeeming U.S. Holders of a QEF are currently taxed on their pro rata shares of its earnings and profits, whether or not distributed. In such case, a subsequent distribution of such earnings and profits that were previously included in income generally should not be taxable as a dividend to such Redeeming U.S. Holders. The tax basis of a Redeeming U.S. Holder’s shares in a QEF will be increased by amounts that are included in income, and decreased by amounts distributed but not taxed as dividends, under the above rules. Similar basis adjustments apply to property if by reason of holding such property the Redeeming U.S. Holder is treated under the applicable attribution rules as owning shares in a QEF.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

A determination that we are a PFIC for any particular year will generally apply for subsequent years to a Redeeming U.S. Holder who held shares or warrants while we were a PFIC, whether or not we meet the test for PFIC status in those subsequent years. A Redeeming U.S. Holder who makes the QEF election discussed above for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) our shares and receives the requisite PFIC annual information statement, however, will not be subject to the PFIC tax and interest charge rules discussed above in respect to such shares. In addition, such Redeeming U.S. Holder will not be subject to the QEF inclusion regime with respect to such shares for any taxable year of us that ends within or with a taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder and in which we are not a PFIC. On the other hand, if the QEF election is not effective for each of our taxable years in which we are a PFIC and the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) our shares, the PFIC rules discussed above will continue to apply to such shares unless the holder makes a purging election, as described above, and pays the tax and interest charge with respect to the gain inherent in such shares attributable to the pre-QEF election period.

The impact of the PFIC rules on a Redeeming U.S. Holder may also depend on whether the Redeeming U.S. Holder has made an election under Section 1296 of the Code. Redeeming U.S. Holders that hold (directly or constructively) stock of a foreign corporation that is classified as a PFIC may annually elect to mark such stock to its market value if such stock is regularly traded on an established exchange (a “mark-to-market election”). No assurance can be given that the Public Shares are considered to be regularly traded for purposes of the mark-to-market election or whether the other requirements of this election are satisfied. If such an election is available and has been made, such Redeeming U.S. Holders will generally not be subject to the special PFIC taxation rules discussed above. Instead, in general, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its shares at the end of its taxable year over the adjusted basis in its shares. The Redeeming U.S. Holder also will be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of its shares over the fair market value of its shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). The Redeeming U.S. Holder’s basis in its shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of the shares will be treated as ordinary income. However, if the mark-to-market election is made by a Redeeming U.S. Holder after the beginning of the holding period for the PFIC stock, then the special PFIC taxation rules described above will apply to certain dispositions of, distributions on and other amounts taxable with respect to the Public Shares. A mark-to-market election is not available with respect to Public Warrants.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder, may have to file an IRS Form 8621 (whether or not a QEF or market-to-market election is made) and such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department.

THE APPLICATION OF THE PFIC RULES IS EXTREMELY COMPLEX. SHAREHOLDERS WHO ARE CONSIDERING PARTICIPATING IN THE REDEMPTION AND/OR SELLING, TRANSFERRING OR OTHERWISE DISPOSING OF THEIR SHARES OR WARRANTS ARE URGED TO CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF THE PFIC RULES (INCLUDING WHETHER A QEF ELECTION, A MARK-TO-MARKET ELECTION, OR ANY OTHER ELECTION IS AVAILABLE AND THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ANY SUCH ELECTION) IN THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to Non-U.S. Shareholders

This section is addressed to Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) of JWSM’s Public Shares that elect to have their shares redeemed for cash as described in the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal — Redemption Rights.” For purposes of this discussion, a “Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner (other than a Flow-Through Entity) of our Public Shares that so redeems its Public Shares and is not a Redeeming U.S. Holder.

Except as otherwise discussed in this section, a Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder who elects to have its shares redeemed will generally be treated in the same manner as a U.S. shareholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See the discussion above under “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to U.S. Shareholders.” However, notwithstanding such characterization, any Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder generally

TABLE OF CONTENTS

will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized or dividends received as a result of the redemption unless the gain or dividends is effectively connected with such non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and if an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the non-U.S. shareholder).

Non-U.S. holders of shares considering exercising their redemption rights are urged to consult their tax advisors as to whether the redemption of their shares will be treated as a sale or as a distribution under the Code, and whether they will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized or dividends received as a result of the redemption based upon their particular circumstances.

Under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) and U.S. Treasury regulations and administrative guidance thereunder, a 30% United States federal withholding tax may apply to certain income paid to (i) a “foreign financial institution” (as specifically defined in FATCA), whether such foreign financial institution is the beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such foreign financial institution agrees to verify, report and disclose its United States “account” holders (as specifically defined in FATCA) and meets certain other specified requirements or (ii) a non-financial foreign entity, whether such non-financial foreign entity is the beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such entity provides a certification that the beneficial owner of the payment does not have any substantial United States owners or provides the name, address and taxpayer identification number of each such substantial United States owner and certain other specified requirements are met. Under certain circumstances, a Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. In certain cases, the relevant foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity may qualify for an exemption from, or be deemed to be in compliance with, these rules. If the country in which a Redeeming Non- U.S. Holder is resident has entered into an “intergovernmental agreement” with the United States regarding FATCA, the Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder may be permitted to report to that country instead of the United States, and the intergovernmental agreement may otherwise modify the requirements described in this paragraph. While withholding under FATCA generally would apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of securities, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA and whether it may be relevant to their disposition of their shares or warrants.

Backup Withholding

In general, proceeds received from the exercise of redemption rights will be subject to backup withholding for a non-corporate Redeeming U.S. Holder that:

•

fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number;

•

is notified by the IRS regarding a failure to report all interest or dividends required to be shown on his or her federal income tax returns; or

•

in certain circumstances, fails to comply with applicable certification requirements.

A Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder generally may eliminate the requirement for information reporting and backup withholding by providing certification of its non-U.S. status, under penalties of perjury, on a duly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or by otherwise establishing an exemption.

Any amount withheld under these rules will be creditable against the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s or Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability or refundable to the extent that it exceeds this liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS and other applicable requirements are met.

AS PREVIOUSLY NOTED ABOVE, THE FOREGOING DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO ANY SHAREHOLDER. WE ONCE AGAIN URGE YOU TO CONSULT WITH YOUR TAX ADVISER TO DETERMINE THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU (INCLUDING THE APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF ANY U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN INCOME OR OTHER TAX LAWS) OF THE RECEIPT OF CASH IN EXCHANGE FOR SHARES IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXTENSION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL AND ANY REDEMPTION OF YOUR PUBLIC SHARES.

BUSINESS OF JWSM AND CERTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT JWSM

References in this section to “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation.

General

We are a blank check company incorporated as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands on October 19, 2020, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses in any industry or sector. We are currently reviewing a number of opportunities to enter into an initial business combination with one or more operating businesses.

Initial Public Offering and Private Placement

On February 4, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 103,500,000 Units, including the issuance of 13,500,000 additional units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, at $10.00 per JWSM Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $1.035 billion. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-252165).

The SEC declared the registration statement effective on February 1, 2021. Simultaneously with the closing of our Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 11,350,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $2.00 per JWSM Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $22,700,000.

Transaction costs amounted to $57,010,008, consisting of $19,800,000 of underwriting fees, net of $900,000 reimbursed from the underwriters, $36,225,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $985,008 of other offering costs.

Following the closing of our Initial Public Offering on February 4, 2021, an amount of approximately $1,035,000,000 ($10.00 per JWSM Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in our Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were placed in a Trust Account, and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by us, until the earliest of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to our shareholders. To mitigate the risk of being viewed as operating an unregistered investment company, JWSM has instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination and liquidation of JWSM. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 2.5 – 3.0% per annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate and JWSM cannot assure you that such rate will not decrease or increase significantly.

On February 1, 2023, we held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (“Initial Extension Meeting”) to, in part, amend our Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which we have to consummate a Business Combination. In connection with that vote, the holders of 101,396,386 Class A Ordinary Shares of JWSM properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $1,032,028,964. After the satisfaction of such redemptions, the balance in our trust account was approximately $21,410,926.

Following the Charter Extension, JWSM intends to focus on leading companies across all industries, which may include, without limitation, real estate, lodging, oil and gas and energy infrastructure.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of JWSM’s Ordinary Shares as of January 8, 2024, based on information obtained from the persons named below, with respect to the beneficial ownership of shares of JWSM’s Ordinary Shares, by:

•

each person known by JWSM to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of JWSM’s outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares;

•

each of JWSM’s executive officers and directors that beneficially owns shares of JWSM’s Ordinary Shares; and

•

all JWSM’s executive officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if such person possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within sixty days.

In connection with the Initial Extension Meeting, the holders of 101,396,386 Class A Ordinary Shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.178 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $1,032,028,964.

In the table below, percentage ownership is based on 27,978,614 ordinary shares, consisting of (i) 2,103,614 Class A ordinary shares and (ii) 25,875,000 Class B ordinary shares, issued and outstanding as of January 8, 2024. The table below does not include the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor because these securities are not exercisable within 60 days of this proxy statement.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of ordinary shares beneficially owned by them.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

HOUSEHOLDING INFORMATION

Unless JWSM has received contrary instructions, JWSM may send a single copy of this proxy statement to any household at which two or more shareholders reside if JWSM believes the shareholders are members of the same family. This process, known as “householding,” reduces the volume of duplicate information received at any one household and helps to reduce JWSM’s expenses. However, if shareholders prefer to receive multiple sets of JWSM’s disclosure documents at the same address this year or in future years, the shareholders should follow the instructions described below. Similarly, if an address is shared with another shareholder and together both of the shareholders would like to receive only a single set of JWSM’s disclosure documents, the shareholders should follow these instructions:

If the shares are registered in the name of the shareholder, the shareholder should contact us at our offices at Jaws Mustang Acquisition Corporation, 1601 Washington Avenue, Suite 800, Miami Beach, Florida 33139, to inform us of his or her request; or if a bank, broker or other nominee holds the shares, the shareholder should contact the bank, broker or other nominee directly.
