On February 17, 2011, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (the “Company”) adopted the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, effective as of such date. The Bylaws were amended as follows:

 

Article I, Sections 2(b) and 2(c) were amended to distinguish among the advance notice requirements for a stockholder to: (i) propose business at an annual meeting of stockholders where the stockholder is not seeking inclusion of that proposal on the Company’s proxy statement; (ii) have a proposal included on the Company’s proxy statement; and (iii) nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders;

 

Article I, Section 2(b) and 2(c) were amended to require that stockholders disclose economic ownership of shares and hedging positions as a condition to submitting business before the meeting;

 

Article I, Section 3 was amended to limit the business discussed at the special meetings of the stockholders to the business specified in the notice of such meeting;

 

Article I,  Section 4 was amended to enable the Board to set the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at a meeting on a different day from the record date set for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting;

 

Article I, Section 5 was amended to provide that, in all matters except the election of directors, an affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast, as opposed to the majority of shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, shall be the act of the shareholders;

 

Article II, Section 8 was amended to enable the Chairman of the Board to call a special meeting; and

 

Article IX was amended to allow for the Bylaws to be amended or repealed or for new Bylaws to be adopted by written consent of the stockholders, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on such subject matter, unanimous written consent of the Board or at any meeting of the Board by the affirmative vote of the majority of the whole number of directors, subject to the power of the stockholders to change and repeal such Bylaws.
