PROXY STATEMENT SUPPLEMENT

 

January 20, 2023

 

To the Shareholders of CC Neuberger Principal Holdings III:

 

This is a supplement (this “Supplement”) to the definitive proxy statement of CC Neuberger Principal Holdings III (“CCNB”), dated January 17, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement”), that was sent to you in connection with CCNB’s special meeting of shareholders scheduled for 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on February 1, 2023, virtually, at https://www.cstproxy.com/ccneubergerprincipalholdingsiii/2023 (the “Shareholder Meeting”).

 

At the Shareholder Meeting, CCNB’s shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend CCNBs Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which CCNB has to consummate a business combination (the “Articles Extension”) from February 5, 2023 (the “Original Termination Date”) to May 5, 2023 (the “Articles Extension Date”) and to allow CCNB, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times by an additional one month each time after the Articles Extension Date, by resolution of CCNB’s board of directors, if requested by CC Neuberger Principal Holdings III Sponsor LLC, (the “Sponsor”), and upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until February 5, 2024, or a total of up to twelve months after the Original Termination Date, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”).

 

In addition, CCNB’s shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend, by way of special resolution, CCNB’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to eliminate from the Memorandum and Articles of Association the limitation that CCNB may not redeem Public Shares (as defined below) to the extent that such redemption would result in CCNB having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow CCNB to redeem Public Shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation.

 

CCNB has filed this Supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to include a revised proxy card to correct a scrivener’s error.

 

VOTING MATTERS

 

Only holders of record of CCNB’s Class A Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and Class B Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share, at the close of business on January 9, 2023, which is the record date for the Shareholder Meeting, are entitled to notice of the Shareholder Meeting and to vote and have their votes counted at the Shareholder Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the Shareholder Meeting. As of the close of business on January 9, 2023, there were 55,312,500 shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share is entitled to one vote per share at the Shareholder Meeting.

 

All holders of Class A Ordinary Shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Extension Amendment Proposal or do not vote at all, may elect to convert their Class A Ordinary Shares into their pro rata portion of the amounts then held in the Trust Account if the Articles Extension is implemented. 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 Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, CCNB’s transfer agent, at least two business days prior to the initially scheduled date of the Shareholder Meeting. In order to exercise your redemption right, you need to identify yourself as a beneficial holder and provide your legal name, phone number and address in your written demand. 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.

You are not being asked to vote any proposed business combination at this time. If the Articles Extension is implemented and you do not elect to redeem your shares of Public Stock, 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 such Business Combination when it is submitted to shareholders and will retain the right to redeem your shares of Public Stock for cash in the event such Business Combination is approved and completed or we have not consummated such Business Combination by the applicable Articles Extension Date.

  

Your vote is important. Please sign, date and return your proxy card as soon as possible to make sure that your shares are represented at the Shareholder Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record, you may also cast your vote in person at the Shareholder Meeting. If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must instruct your broker or bank how to vote your shares, or you may cast your vote in person at the Shareholder Meeting by obtaining a proxy from your brokerage firm or bank. Your failure to vote or instruct your broker or bank how to vote will have the same effect as voting against the Extension Amendment Proposal.

 

This Supplement is dated January 20, 2023.
