On August 12, 2024, CSLM released an announcement in connection with its upcoming annual meeting scheduled for August 18, 2024 (the “Annual Meeting”), to seek shareholder approval to, among other proposals, extend the period of time the Company will have to consummate its initial business combination on a monthly basis, until July 18, 2025 (the “Extension”).
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Participants in the Solicitation
The Company and its directors and executive officers and other persons may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company’s shareholders in respect of the Extension. Information regarding the Company’s directors and executive officers is available in its annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Additional information regarding the participants in the proxy solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests are contained in the Proxy Statement (defined below).
No Offer or Solicitation
This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Additional Information
The Company has filed with the SEC definitive proxy statement and certain supplements thereto for the Annual Meeting (the definitive proxy statement referred to as “Proxy Statement”) to consider and vote upon the Extension and other matters and, beginning on August 8, 2024, mailed the Proxy Statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the August 6, 2024 record date for the Annual Meeting. The Company’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read the Proxy Statement and any other relevant documents that have been or will be filed with the SEC in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting because these documents will contain important information about the Company, the Extension and related matters.
