Item 8.01. Other Events.
Additional Contribution
On March 13, 2023, the Company reaffirmed its intention to support the proposal
(the "Extension Proposal") to amend the Company's amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association , to extend the date by which the Company
must consummate a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or
entities (a "business combination") from March 21, 2023 to March 21, 2024 (the
"Extension," and such later date, the "Extended Date") or such earlier date as
shall be determined by the Company's board of directors (the "Amended
Termination Date"). The Extension Proposal will be voted on by shareholders at
the extraordinary general meeting on March 15, 2023 (the "Special Meeting") and
is described in further detail in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement on
Schedule 14A (the "Proxy Statement"), filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 2, 2023.
In order to support this proposal, the Company and CGA Sponsor 2, LLC (the
"Sponsor") have agreed that, if the Extension is approved, they will deposit
into the trust account an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $0.04 per share or
(ii) $65,000.00 for each month (the "Monthly Contribution") of the Extension
period up and until February 21, 2024, resulting in a maximum contribution of
$0.48 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares that is not redeemed in connection
with the Special Meeting (the "Maximum Contribution", and the period from March
21, 2023 to March 21, 2024 the "Guaranteed Payment Period"), subject to the
Company's and the Sponsor's right to stop making said Monthly Contributions as
described below.
This contribution will be funded as follows: on (or prior to) March 21, 2023,
and on or prior to the 21st of each month thereafter through February 21, 2024,
the Company or the Sponsor will deposit into the trust account an amount equal
to the lesser of (i) $0.04 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares not redeemed in
connection with the Special Meeting or (ii) $65,000.00; provided that, no such
deposits will be made following the completion of any business combination.
The per-share pro rata portion of the trust account on February 13, 2023 was
approximately $10.50. If the Extension is approved and the Company contributes
the Maximum Contribution, an additional $0.48 will be added to the per-share
redemption amount. No contribution will occur if the Extension Proposal is not
approved, and the Company and the Sponsor will not make the monthly
contributions into the trust account if the Extension is not completed for any
reason. In the event the Extension is approved and the Company or the Sponsor
elects to stop funding the Monthly Contribution, which either may do in its sole
discretion, all then outstanding holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares not
redeemed in connection with the Special Meeting will be given an opportunity to
redeem their shares at that time, and any shareholder that redeems their shares
in such an event will receive a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the
aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest not
previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of
then outstanding public shares.
Sponsor Conversion
On March 10, 2023, pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association of the Company, the Sponsor, the holder of an
aggregate of 4,475,000 shares of the Company's Class B Ordinary Shares, par
value $0.0001 per share, elected to convert 4,475,000 shares of the Class B
Ordinary Shares held by it on a one-for-one basis into Class A Ordinary Shares
of the Company, with immediate effect. Following such conversion, the Company
will have an aggregate of 7,779,435 shares of Class A Ordinary Shares issued and
outstanding and 150,000 shares of Class B Ordinary Shares issued and
outstanding. In connection with the conversion, the Sponsor has agreed to
certain transfer restrictions, a waiver of redemption rights, a waiver of any
right to receive funds from the trust account and the obligation to vote in
favor of an initial business combination. Since the conversion occurred after
the record date of the Special Meeting, there has been no impact to the votes
required to approve the proposals or the counting of the votes at the Special
Meeting as a result of the conversion.
Participants in the Solicitation
The Company and its directors and executive officers may be deemed participants
in the solicitation of proxies from the Company's stockholders with respect to
proposals voted on at the Special Meeting. A list of the names of those
directors and executive officers and a description of their interests in the
Company is available in the Company's Proxy Statement, filed with the SEC on
March 2, 2023, and will be contained in the Registration Statement for the
Business Combination, when available, each of which will be available free of
charge at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to Corner
Growth Acquisition Corp. 2, 251 Lytton Avenue, Suite 200, Palo Alto, California

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. The Company's actual results may differ from its

"plan," "may," "will," "could," "should," "believes," "predicts," "potential,"

Sponsor's commitment to funding the Monthly Contributions, the Company's
expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial
impacts of the non-binding letter of intent that it has entered into with a

forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that
could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results.
Most of these factors are outside the Company's control and are difficult to
predict. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance upon any
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company

in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on
