of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On June 25, 2024, Mr. Anthony Falbo, chief operating officer of OPAL Fuels Inc. (“OPAL Fuels” or the “Company”), tendered his resignation, to be effective August 2, 2024, in order to pursue another opportunity, and the Company wishes him well with this new endeavor. The Company appreciates Mr. Falbo’s valuable contributions and leadership provided to OPAL Fuels during his tenure.

The Company has initiated a search for another qualified individual to fill the role of chief operating officer. The Co-Chief Executive Officers of OPAL Fuels will work with Mr. Falbo and take a more active role in leading the business unit managers to ensure a smooth transition of Mr. Falbo’s responsibilities during the interim period.

The Company has a strong group of managers and experienced teams across all business units and is confident in the abilities of these managers and teams to carry out the day-to-day operations of OPAL Fuels as usual during this transition period.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections, and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including, but not limited to those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed on March 15, 2024, as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for the Company’s management to predict all risks, nor can the Company assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements it may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The Company does not give any assurance that it will achieve its expectations.
