Calculated based on (i) 28,981,579 Class A Shares outstanding as of November 16, 2022 as reported on Issuer’s prospectus, filed on December 15, 2022 (the “Prospectus”), and plus (ii) 144,399,037 Class A Shares to be issued upon conversion of all the Class B common units of OPAL Fuels LLC (the “Class B Units”) and Class D Shares outstanding as of November 16, 2022 as reported on the Prospectus. In accordance with the SEC’s rules for calculating “beneficial ownership,” which requires the Reporting Persons to disregard the conversion or exercise of the Class D Shares or Warrants (as defined below) not held by the Reporting Persons, the Reporting Persons would be deemed to beneficially own approximately 29.1% of the outstanding Class A Shares. This percentage is calculated with a numerator of 8,425,424 and a denominator of 28,981,579. Notwithstanding the foregoing, because a Class B Unit and Class D Share are economically equivalent to a Class A Share and further, the Class D Shares vote together with the Class A Shares, the reported 4.9% reflects the Reporting Person’s actual economic and voting interest in the Issuer.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SCHEDULE 13D

Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on August 1, 2022, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on December 23, 2022 (as so amended, the “Original Schedule 13D”). Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings previously ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a)-(b) The information contained on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. As noted on the cover pages, the beneficial ownership reflected in Box 13 of each cover page is calculated based on (i) 28,981,579 Class A Shares outstanding as of November 16, 2022 as reported on Issuer’s Prospectus, as increased by (ii) 144,399,037 Class A Shares to be issued upon conversion of all the Class B Units and Class D Shares outstanding as of November 16, 2022 as reported on the Prospectus. In accordance with the SEC’s rules for calculating “beneficial ownership,” which requires the Reporting Persons to disregard the conversion or exercise of the Class D Shares or warrants to acquire Class A Shares (“Warrants”) not held by the Reporting Persons, the Reporting Persons would be deemed to beneficially own approximately 29.1% of the outstanding Class A Shares. This percentage is calculated with a numerator of 8,425,424 and a denominator of 28,981,579. Notwithstanding the foregoing, because a Class B Unit and Class D Share are economically equivalent to a Class A Share and further, the Class D Shares vote together with the Class A Shares, the reported 4.9% reflects the Reporting Person’s actual economic and voting interest in the Issuer.

The Reported Securities are held directly by the Sponsor. Daniel R. Revers has voting power and investment discretion with respect to the securities held by the Sponsor, and thus may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Reported Securities. The filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission by either Reporting Person that such person is, for the purposes of sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this statement.

The Reported Securities include 763,907 Class A Shares that are subject to forfeiture (the “Sponsor Earn-Out”) pursuant to that certain Sponsor Letter Agreement, by and among the Sponsor, OPAL Fuels and certain parties thereto, dated as of December 2, 2021 (as amended from time to time, the “Sponsor Letter Agreement”). Pursuant to the Sponsor Letter Agreement, up to 10% of the Class A Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Person as of July 21, 2022 will be subject to forfeiture if, during the 60 months following July 21, 2022, the following vesting conditions are not satisfied:

(1)

If (A) the VWAP of the Class A Shares over any 20 trading days within any 30 consecutive trading day period is greater than or equal to $12.50 per share; or (B) a Sale (as defined below) is consummated in which the Class A Shares are valued at greater than or equal to $12.50 per share, 50% of the Earn-Out Shares will vest upon the close of market on the 20^th such trading day or as of immediately prior to the closing of such Sale, respectively; and

(2)

If (A) the VWAP of the Class A Shares over any 20 trading days within any 30 consecutive trading day period is greater than or equal to $15.00 per share; or (B) a Sale is consummated in which the Class A Shares are valued at greater than or equal to $15.00 per share the remaining 50% of the Earn-Out Shares will vest upon the close of market on the 20^th such trading day or as of immediately prior to the closing of such Sale, respectively.

As used with respect to the Sponsor Earn-Out, “Sale” means (A) (1) a direct or indirect sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (regardless of the form of the transaction) in one transaction or a series of related transactions of a majority of the Issuer’s assets, as determined on a consolidated basis, to a third party or third parties acting as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) or (2) any transaction or series of transactions that results, directly or indirectly, in the shareholders of the Issuer as of immediately prior to such transactions holding, in the aggregate, less than 50% of the voting equity securities of the Issuer (or any successor of the Issuer) immediately after the consummation thereof (excluding any Sponsor Earnout Shares), in the case of each of clause (1) or (2), whether by amalgamation, merger, consolidation, arrangement, tender offer, recapitalization, purchase, issuance, sale or transfer of equity securities or assets or otherwise.

(c) Except as set forth in this Section 5(c), the Reporting Persons have not effected any transaction in Class A Shares during the past sixty days.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The description of the Letter Agreement in Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following at the end thereof:
