The agreement generally runs for six months after closing, with Pubco able to accelerate or extend the maturity under defined conditions.

Cantor Equity Partners III, Inc. (CAEP) entered into a Business Combination Agreement to merge with AIR Limited via a newly formed Jersey holding company (Pubco). The structure includes two steps: CAEP merges into a Cayman subsidiary so that each CAEP Class A and Class B share receives one Pubco ordinary share (excluding any CAEP Class A shares redeemed and certain CAEP Class B shares surrendered), followed by AIR merging into a Jersey subsidiary, making both survivors wholly owned by Pubco, which will be publicly traded.
For the AIR merger, Company shareholders will receive Pubco shares based on a formula referencing $1,456,000,000, divided by fully‑diluted AIR shares and $10.00, plus an additional 5% in earnout shares subject to forfeiture. AIR holders are generally locked up for six months, with an earlier release tied to a transaction valuing Pubco shares at $12.50 or more per share. The Sponsor will forfeit 3,400,000 CAEP Class B shares and has 1,500,000 Pubco earnout shares that vest in two tranches at $12.50 and $15.00 price hurdles over 20 of 30 trading days.
Closing conditions include CAEP shareholder approval, effectiveness of a Form F‑4, antitrust clearances, and Nasdaq listing approval.
