Item 4.

Ownership.

 

The information required by Items 4(a) - (c) is set forth in Rows (5) - (11) of the cover page for each Reporting Person and is incorporated herein by reference for each Reporting Person.

 

Concord Sponsor Group III LLC (the “Sponsor”) holds 7,957,727 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock”), representing approximately 18.7% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, on an as-converted basis. The shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the Issuer’s initial business combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Issuer’s registration statements on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-254789 and 333-260751) and have no expiration date.

 

The securities described above are held directly by the Sponsor. The Sponsor is governed by a board of managers consisting of three managers, Bob Diamond, David Schamis and Jeff Tuder. Any action by the Sponsor with respect to the issuer or the issuer's securities held by the Sponsor, including voting and dispositive decisions, requires at least a majority vote of the managers of the board of managers. Under the so-called "rule of three", because voting and dispositive decisions are made by a majority of the managers, none of the managers is deemed to be a beneficial owner of issuer's securities held by the Sponsor, even those in which such manager holds a pecuniary interest. Accordingly, none of the managers on Sponsor's board of managers is deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of the founder shares held by the Sponsor.

 

The aggregate percentage of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person is calculated based upon 34,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of December 16, 2021, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 16, 2021, adjusted for the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the Sponsor.
