Item 1 Comment:
This Amendment No. 3 ("Amendment No. 3") to Schedule 13D relates to the Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), of OPAL Fuels Inc. (the "Issuer"), and amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") by the Reporting Persons on August 1, 2022, as amended by Amendments No. 1 and No. 2 thereto on January 5, 2024 and December 3, 2025, respectively (as amended by such Amendments No. 1 and No. 2, the "Original Schedule 13D"). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 3 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 3 is being filed solely to amend and restate Item 6 below to report the new information described therein. | ||
| Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer | |
The second paragraph of Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
In addition to the 2,158,547 shares of Class A Common Stock that are described herein, the Reporting Persons were previously the beneficial owners of Series A Preferred Units of Opal Fuels LLC (the "Series A Preferred Units"), all of which were directly owned by Mendocino. Opal Fuels LLC is an entity that directly or indirectly holds substantially all of the consolidated assets and business of the Issuer. On December 3, 2025, Mendocino provided written notice to Opal Fuels LLC, pursuant and subject to Opal Fuels LLC's Series A Preferred Unit Certificate of Designations, that Mendocino requested redemption, no later than 90 days after the date of such notice, of all of the Series A Preferred Units. On March 6, 2026, Opal Fuels fully redeemed from Mendocino all of the Series A Preferred Units. | ||
