On January 17, 2023, CC Neuberger Principal Holdings III (“CCNB”) filed a definitive proxy statement (as supplemented by an initial supplement to the definitive proxy statement, dated January 20, 2023, the “Extension Proxy Statement”) for an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders to be held on February 1, 2023 to consider and act upon a proposal to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which CCNB must complete an initial business combination to May 5, 2023 (the “Articles Extension Date”) and to allow CCNB, without the need for 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, a Delaware limited liability company. The Extension Proxy Statement also includes a proposal to eliminate from CCNB's Memorandum and Articles of Association the limitation that CCNB may not redeem public shares 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 Extension Proxy Statement was mailed to CCNB shareholders of record as of January 9, 2023. Shareholders may obtain a copy of the Extension Proxy Statement at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).
As set forth in the Extension Proxy Statement, the deadline by which CCNB public shareholders had to complete the procedures for electing to redeem their Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), was 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 30, 2023 (“Redemption Deadline”). The initial number of Ordinary Shares tendered for redemption prior to the Redemption Deadline was 36,289,287. The deadline for shareholders to withdraw previously submitted redemption requests is Wednesday, February 1, 2023, prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, subject to approval by the board of directors of CCNB.
Shareholders may make such request by contacting our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at One State Street, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004, Attn: Mark Zimkind (e-mail: mzimkind@continentalstock.com).
