This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment No. 4”) to the statement on Schedule 13D amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on September 27,
2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on November 8, 2021, Amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on November 24, 2021 and
Amendment No. 3 to the Original Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on December 13, 2021 (as so amended, the “13D Filing” and, together with this Amendment No. 4, the “Schedule 13D”). Except as amended in this Amendment No. 4, the 13D Filing
remains in full force and effect. Terms defined in the 13D Filing are used in this Amendment No. 4 as so defined, unless otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 4.
Item 1. Security and Issuer
Item 1 of the 13D Filing is hereby amended by restating the last paragraph thereunder as follows:
This Schedule 13D does not reflect warrants outstanding as of the date of this filing to purchase approximately 6,771,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, which reflects 18,883,492
warrants outstanding as of September 30, 2021, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 15, 2021 (the “Second Quarter 10-Q”), less 12,112,492 Redeemable
Warrants (as defined below) exercised to date. Each warrant is exercisable and expires five years after the completion of the Business Combinations or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the 13D Filing is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Items 2 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.
The aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock that the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and is based

9,604,142 additional shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon exercise of Redeemable Warrants based on information provided by the Issuer, and assumes the exchange of 14,942,643 LFG Class A Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in the

As of the date of this filing, 55,523,986 LFG Class A Units are outstanding, which is based on 62,281,735 LFG Class A Units outstanding as of November 8, 2021, as reported in the
Issuer’s Second Quarter 10-Q, and gives effect to the cancelation of 6,757,749 LFG Class A Units held by Aria RES in connection with the Share Repurchases (as defined below) and Salient Sales (as defined below). Assuming the conversion of all of the
outstanding LFG Class A Units for shares of Class A Common Stock, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 12.6% of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock in the aggregate.
(a) and (b) As of the date of this filing, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned, in the aggregate, (i) 14,942,643 shares of Class B Common Stock and (ii) 14,942,643 LFG Class A

exchangeable into Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis or, at the Issuer’s option, cash. Following any exchange of LFG Class A Units, an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by the holder of such LFG Class A Units will be
canceled.
Each of the Reporting Persons, as a result of the relationships described in Item 2, may be deemed to directly or indirectly beneficially own the shares of Class A Common Stock
held by Aria RES and reported on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for such Reporting Person. See also Items 11 and 13 of the cover pages to, and Item 2 of, this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock and the
percentage of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons.
(c) Except in connection with the Business Combinations, the Share Repurchases and the Salient Sales (as defined below) and as described in Item 3, none of the Reporting Persons
has effected any transaction related to the Common Stock during the past 60 days.
(d) Except as otherwise described in this Schedule 13D, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale
of, securities covered by this Schedule 13D.
(e) Not applicable.
