| (2) | Based on 199,917,559 shares of the Issuer’s common stock issued and outstanding as of April 30, 2021, as set forth in the prospectus supplement filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) on May 10, 2021. |
The Schedule 13D filed on May 18, 2018 (the “Schedule 13D”), by TotalEnergies SE (formerly known as TOTAL SE), a European company (societas europaea or SE) under the laws of the Republic of France (“TotalEnergies”), and TOTAL MARKETING SERVICES SAS, a société par actions simplifiée organized under the laws of the Republic of France and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of TotalEnergies (“Purchaser,” and together with TotalEnergies, the “Reporting Persons”), relating to shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Clean Energy Fuels Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on June 14, 2018, is hereby amended and supplemented as set forth below by this Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 2”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D as previously filed.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented with the following:
Subject to applicable securities laws and regulations, market conditions and other factors, the Reporting Persons have sold and currently plan to continue to sell a portion of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons from time to time in open market transactions pursuant to Rule 144.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons may modify their current plans depending on the Reporting Persons’ evaluation of various factors, including the investment potential of the Common Stock, the Issuer’s business prospects and financial position, other developments concerning the Issuer, opportunities that may be available to the Issuer, the price level and availability of the Common Stock, available opportunities to acquire or dispose of the Common Stock, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, commodity prices, reinvestment opportunities and other factors deemed relevant by the Reporting Persons. As a result of the foregoing, subject to applicable securities laws and regulations, market conditions and other factors, the Reporting Persons may purchase additional securities of the Issuer, maintain their present ownership of securities of the Issuer or sell some or all of the securities of the Issuer. Furthermore, the Reporting Persons continue to reserve the right to formulate plans or make proposals, and take such action with respect thereto, including any or all of the items set forth in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D and any other actions, as they may determine.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented with the following:
(a) and (b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. As of the close of business on June 4, 2021, the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owner of 64,039,752 shares of Common Stock.
The percentage of beneficial ownership of the Reporting Persons was calculated by dividing (i) the 64,039,752 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as of the close of business on June 4, 2021 by (ii) 199,917,559 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of April 30, 2021, as set forth in the prospectus supplement filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) on May 10, 2021.
To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, the executive officers and directors of the Reporting Persons have no beneficial ownership of Common Stock separate from the beneficial ownership held by the Reporting Persons.
(c) The table below specifies the date, amount and weighted average per share price of shares of Common Stock sold by the Reporting Persons since the most recent filing of Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons. All transactions reflected in the table below were effected in the open market on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there have been no transactions by any director or executive officer of any of the Reporting Persons in securities of the Issuer during such 60-day period.
