Comments: On December 18, 2024, Verde Clean Fuels, Inc. received written consent from the holder of a majority of its outstanding shares to amend and restate its Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, contingent upon the closing of a recently announced PIPE investment. This includes increasing the authorized shares of Class C Common Stock from 25 million to 26 million and enlarging the Board of Directors from seven to eight members, allowing Cottonmouth Ventures LLC to designate a director nominee and observer as long as they own 10% or more of the voting power. The Restated Charter was approved without the need for further stockholder action, and the company plans to file the Restated Charter soon, following the required notice period. The upcoming Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) transaction will involve selling 12.5 million shares of Class A Common Stock at $4.00 each, totaling $50 million, to Cottonmouth, who, post-closing, will become a significant shareholder with approximately 32.5% of the outstanding shares. The modifications to the board and share structure aim to facilitate this investment and align with strategic goals.
