| 4<br>Safe harbor<br>This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the<br>Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as<br>amended, including statements about, among other things, the ability of Clean Energy Fuels Corp.<br>(the “Company”) to transition to providing hydrogen, electricity and other alternative fuels for<br>transportation.<br>Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical facts and relate to future events<br>or circumstances or the Company’s future performance, and they are based on the Company’s<br>current assumptions, expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential<br>effect on the Company and its business. As a result, actual results, performance or achievements<br>and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in or implied by these<br>forward-looking statements as a result of many factors including, among others: the COVID-19<br>pandemic and the measures taken to prevent its spread and the related impact on our operations,<br>liquidity and financial condition; the willingness of fleets and other consumers to adopt natural gas<br>as a vehicle fuel, and the rate and level of any such adoption; the Company’s ability to capture a<br>substantial share of the market for alternative vehicle fuels and vehicle fuels generally and<br>otherwise compete successfully in these markets; the potential adoption of government policies<br>or programs or increased publicity or popular sentiment in favor of other vehicle fuels; the<br>market’s perception of the benefits of renewable natural gas (“RNG”) and conventional natural gas<br>relative to other alternative vehicle fuels; natural gas vehicle and engine cost, fuel usage,<br>availability, quality, safety, convenience, design, performance and residual value, as well as<br>operator perception with respect to these factors, in general and in the Company’s key customer<br>markets, including heavy-duty trucking; the Company’s ability to manage and grow its RNG<br>business, including its ability to procure adequate supplies of RNG and generate revenues from<br>sales of such RNG; the Company and its suppliers’ ability to successfully develop and operate<br>projects and produce expected volumes of RNG; the potential commercial viability of livestock<br>waste and dairy farm projects to produce RNG; the Company’s history of net losses and the<br>possibility the Company incurs additional net losses in the future; the Company’s and its partners’<br>ability to acquire, finance, construct and develop other commercial projects; the Company’s ability<br>to invest in hydrogen stations or modify its fueling stations to reform its RNG to fuel hydrogen and<br>electric vehicles; the Company’s ability to realize the expected benefits from the commercial<br>arrangement with Amazon and related transactions; future supply, demand, use and prices of<br>crude oil, gasoline, diesel, natural gas, and other vehicle fuels, including overall levels of and<br>volatility in these factors; changes in the competitive environment in which we operate, including<br>potentially increasing competition in the market for vehicle fuels generally; the Company’s ability<br>to manage and grow its business of transporting and selling compressed natural gas for non-<br>vehicle purposes via virtual natural gas pipelines and interconnects, as well as its station design<br>and construction activities; construction, permitting and other factors that could cause delays or<br>other problems at station construction projects; the Company’s ability to execute and realize the<br>intended benefits of any acquisitions, divestitures, investments or other strategic relationships or<br>transactions; future availability of and our access to additional capital, which may include debt or<br>equity financing, in the amounts and at the times needed to fund growth in the Company’s<br>business and the repayment of its debt obligations (whether at or before their due dates) or other<br>expenditures, as well as the terms and other effects of any such capital raising transaction; the<br>Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows to repay its debt obligations as they come due;<br>the availability of environmental, tax and other government regulations, programs and incentives<br>that promote natural gas, such as the U.S. federal excise tax credits for alternative fuels, or other<br>alternatives as a vehicle fuel, including long-standing support for gasoline- and diesel-powered<br>vehicles and growing support for electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles that could result in<br>programs or incentives that favor these or other vehicles or vehicle fuels over natural gas; the<br>Company’s ability to comply with various registration and regulatory requirements related to its<br>RNG projects; the effect of, or potential for changes to greenhouse gas emissions requirements or<br>other environmental regulations applicable to vehicles powered by gasoline, diesel, natural gas or<br>other vehicle fuels and crude oil and natural gas fueling, drilling, production, transportation or use;<br>the Company’s ability to manage the safety and environmental risks inherent in its operations; the<br>Company’s compliance with all applicable government regulations; the impact of the foregoing on<br>the trading price of the Company’s common stock; the results and timing of the proposed<br>common stock offering; and general political, regulatory, economic and market conditions.<br>The forward-looking statements made in this presentation speak only as of the date of this<br>presentation, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly such forward-looking<br>statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, except as otherwise required by law.<br>The Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")<br>on the SEC website (www.sec.gov), including its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter<br>ended September 30, 2021, contain additional information about these and other risk factors that<br>may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this<br>presentation, and such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to<br>time by other reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |

| Non-GAAP Financial Measures Non-GAAP financial measures<br>To supplement the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in<br>accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America<br>(“GAAP”), the Company uses non-GAAP financial measures that it calls adjusted net income (loss)<br>(“Adjusted Net Income (loss)”) and adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Management presents<br>Adjusted Net Income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes these measures provide<br>meaningful supplemental information about the Company’s performance, for the following<br>reasons: (1) these measures allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by<br>management to assess the Company’s operating performance and make financial and<br>operational decisions; (2) these measures exclude the effect of items that management believes<br>are not directly attributable to the Company’s core operating performance and may obscure<br>trends in the business; and (3) these measures are used by institutional investors and the analyst<br>community to help analyze the Company’s business.<br>Non-GAAP financial measures are limited as an analytical tool and should not be considered in<br>isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP results. Moreover, because not all<br>companies use identical measures and calculations, the Company’s presentation of Adjusted Net<br>Income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures<br>used by other companies.<br>Non-GAAP financial measures<br>5 |
