CLEAN ENERGY FUELS CORP.
INSIDER TRADING POLICY SUMMARY

As of May 22, 2025

​
​​

Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (“Clean Energy” or the “Company”) has adopted formal policies and procedures to prevent insider trading violations by its officers, directors, employees and related individuals.  The following summary is presented in question-and-answer format.  The following information is a summary only.  All persons subject to the insider trading policy must read the entire policy.  

What is the insider trading policy?

The insider trading policy contains rules applicable to our officers, directors, employees and certain consultants, and related individuals, concerning trading in stock or other securities of Clean Energy and companies and research institutions with whom Clean Energy does business.  Among other things, the policy prohibits trading in Clean Energy securities while in possession of inside information.

What is “inside information?”

Inside information is material, non-public information concerning Clean Energy, its securities or any other public company with whom Clean Energy does business.  The policy contains many examples of types of material, non-public information.

Who is subject to the insider trading policy?

The policy covers the officers, directors, employees and consultants of Clean Energy and all of its subsidiaries.  The policy also covers family members of these persons and others who have or may have access to inside information.

Who is the Compliance Officer and what does he or she do?

The Corporate Secretary is the insider trading Compliance Officer and is responsible for ensuring compliance with the policy.  In the Corporate Secretary’s absence, the Chief Financial Officer will serve as the Compliance Officer.

Who are Section 16 Insiders?

Section 16 is part of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  It requires certain senior officers, directors and large stockholders to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission about their shareholdings and trades.  The Section 16 Insiders are listed on Exhibit A to the policy.  Section 16 Insiders are considered “Access Personnel” under the policy.  Exhibit A will be automatically amended whenever the Clean Energy Board of Directors changes the designation of Section 16 insiders.

Who are Access Personnel?

The Company may from time-to-time designate certain persons as Access Personnel for purposes of this Policy. Access Personnel include the Section 16 Insiders and some other employees and certain consultants who,

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

because of their position, are likely to have access to inside information more frequently than other employees and consultants.  

Is anyone else considered Access Personnel?

Occasionally, Clean Energy may add people to the list of Access Personnel if they gain access to inside information.  The Compliance Officer will inform people in writing if they become Access Personnel.

What special restrictions apply to Access Personnel?

Access Personnel may not engage in any transactions in Clean Energy securities during times of the year called blackout periods.  Access Personnel must also contact the Compliance Officer prior to engaging in any transaction in Clean Energy securities, even outside of the blackout periods.  The above rules will be waived for trades pursuant to Company-approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plans (see below).  

What is the blackout period?

The blackout period during which Access Personnel cannot trade in Clean Energy securities begins the last business day of a fiscal quarter and ends upon the close of trading on the first trading day following the public announcement of earnings for that quarter (or for the fiscal year in the case of the quarter ending December 31).  Clean Energy may extend the blackout period or implement different blackout periods at any time by giving written notice to all Access Personnel.  In addition, Clean Energy may waive compliance with a blackout period if all inside information concerning the Company has been publicly disclosed or is known by both parties to the proposed transaction.

What is the restriction on market limit orders?

Market limit orders are open orders placed with a broker which are to be executed only if the securities reach a certain price.  A market limit order may continue indefinitely, or it may expire at a set time.  In order to prevent Access Personnel from accidentally engaging in a trade when trading is not allowed, Access Personnel may not enter any market limit orders with their brokers for Clean Energy securities except market limit orders which expire within the time allowed for trading after receiving written permission to trade from the insider trading Compliance Officer.

The above restrictions are not applicable to approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plans (see below).

​

​

Does the policy have exceptions for Rule 10b5-1 trading plans?

The Company will in certain cases permit persons subject to this policy to enter into “blind trusts” or advance trading plans, and thereby avoid the prohibitions in the policy on trading while in possession of inside information.  All such plans by Access Personnel will require approval by the insider trading Compliance Officer and the Company’s General Counsel, which approval must be obtained in advance of any trade that would otherwise be subject to the policy.

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

I am not listed as Access Personnel.  Does the policy apply to me?

Yes.  While people who are not Access Personnel are not subject to the blackout periods, all employees and consultants of Clean Energy and its subsidiaries are prohibited from trading while in possession of inside information.

Can I sell Clean Energy shares short or hedge Clean Energy securities?

No.  Selling shares short is a bet that the price of Clean Energy common stock will go down.  We cannot have a situation where any of our employees or consultants would benefit financially at the expense of our existing stockholders.  The same policy applies to acquiring any derivative security (such as a put option) whose value would increase if the stock price goes down.  You may not purchase financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds), or otherwise engage in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of Clean Energy’s equity securities.  Section 16 Insiders are prohibited by law, as well as by the policy, from selling short.

What about my options issued pursuant to one of Clean Energy’s stock option plans?

You may exercise options issued by Clean Energy, including any net exercise of the option, at any time and even if you possess inside information.  The special exception for exercise of an option does not apply to the sale of the Clean Energy common stock you receive on exercise (including the sale of Clean Energy common stock to cover taxes due upon exercise).  All sales of Clean Energy common stock are subject to the policy.  Unless you intend to hold the shares, you acquire upon exercise of an option, you should determine whether you are permitted to sell the shares before you exercise the option.

Can I margin or pledge Clean Energy shares I own?

No.  

What are the penalties for violation of the policy?

Violation of the policy may expose the violator to severe criminal and civil penalties.  Clean Energy will consider disciplinary action, up to and including termination, of any person who violates the policy.

INSIDER TRADING POLICY

As of May 22, 2025

Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (“Clean Energy” or the “Company”) has implemented an Insider Trading Policy (the “Policy”) to provide guidelines to officers, directors, employees and related individuals of the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to transactions in the Company’s securities.

“Inside Information” means material, non-public information.  Information is material if a reasonable investor would consider it important to the total mix of information available about the Company.  Information is non-public if it has not been explicitly disclosed by the Company in a press release or report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or by another manner involving broad disclosure to the investing public.  Information remains non-public until it has been so disclosed and the market has had time to absorb and evaluate the information.

Examples of types of information that will frequently be material include:

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

Either positive or negative information may be material.

Information about operating results, in particular sales numbers and new contracts and business developments, is particularly sensitive.  In general, information that is likely to affect the market price of a security is likely to be considered material.

“Access Personnel” include the Section 16 Insiders, and other persons who, by virtue of their position, are likely to have access to Inside Information on a more frequent basis than other Subject Persons.  The Company may from time-to-time designate certain persons as Access Personnel for purposes of this Policy if they gain access to Inside Information even for a limited period of time.  All persons who, temporarily or permanently, become Access Personnel for purposes of this Policy will be given written notice.

“Blackout Period” applies to Access Personnel and is described below under the heading “Specific Procedures Applicable to Access Personnel.”

“Compliance Officer” is the insider trading Compliance Officer appointed pursuant to this Policy.  The Compliance Officer is the Corporate Secretary, or in his or her absence, the Chief Financial Officer, but may be changed at any time by the Company.

“Section 16 Insiders” are the executive officers and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries who are subject to the reporting and liability provisions of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Section 16 Insiders are listed on Exhibit A to this Policy.  Exhibit A will be updated whenever the Board changes the designation of Section 16 insiders.

“Subject Persons” are described below under the heading “Applicability of Policy to Subject Persons.”

“Trading Day” means a day on which the Nasdaq Global Market is open for trading.

This Policy applies to all transactions in the Company’s securities, including common stock, options for common stock and other securities the Company may issue from time to time, such as preferred stock, warrants and convertible debentures, as well as to derivative securities relating to the Company’s stock, whether or not issued by the Company (such as exchange-traded options), and bona fide gifts of Company securities (including charitable donations and transfers for estate planning purposes).  It applies to all officers of the Company, all members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and all employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as certain consultants or contractors, and will continue to apply to such persons until the close of trading on the first Trading Day after Inside Information known to such person becomes public or is no longer material.  It also applies to family members of such persons, and to others, to the extent such persons come to have access to Inside Information.  Persons subject to this Policy are referred to as “Subject Persons.”

Any person who possesses Inside Information regarding the Company is a Subject Person for so long as the information is non-public.

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

It is the policy of the Company that any Subject Person who possesses Inside Information about the Company may not buy or sell securities of the Company nor engage in any trade or other action to take advantage of, or pass on to others, that information.  This includes posting of Inside Information in chatrooms or via other electronic communications.  This Policy also applies to information relating to any other company, including customers, vendors or suppliers of the Company, obtained in the course of employment by or service to the Company.

It is illegal for any Subject Person to trade in the securities of the Company while in possession of material, non-public information about the Company or its securities.  It is also illegal for any Subject Person to give Inside Information to others who may trade on the basis of that information.

The Company intends to comply with the spirit as well as the letter of the insider trading laws.  The Company’s policy is to avoid even the appearance of improper conduct on the part of anyone employed by or associated with the Company, whether or not the conduct is literally in violation of the law.

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

Every Subject Person has the individual responsibility to comply with this Policy against insider trading, regardless of whether the Company has implemented a Blackout Period applicable to the Subject Person.  Appropriate judgment should be exercised in connection with any trade or other restrictions in the Company’s securities.  YOU are responsible for ensuring that you do not have Inside Information before engaging in a transaction and that you comply with any and all other legal obligations.  Therefore, before engaging in a transaction, you should carefully consider whether you are aware of any Inside Information.

A Subject Person may, from time to time, have to forego a proposed transaction in the Company’s securities even if he or she planned to make the transaction before learning of the Inside Information and even though the Subject Person believes he or she may suffer an economic loss or forego an anticipated profit by waiting.  Subject Persons who have anticipated needs for liquidity should strongly consider adopting a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.

This Policy also applies to Inside Information relating to other companies, including the Company’s customers, vendors or suppliers (“business partners”), when that information is obtained in the course of employment with, or other services performed on behalf of, the Company.  Civil and criminal penalties, and termination of employment, may result from trading on inside information regarding the Company’s business partners.  All employees should treat Inside Information about the Company’s business partners with the same care required with respect to information related directly to the Company.

The Compliance Officer may issue instructions from time to time advising some or all Company personnel that they may not buy or sell the Company’s securities for certain periods, or that the Company’s securities may not be traded without prior approval.  Due to the confidential nature of the events that may trigger these sorts of restricted periods, the Compliance Officer may find it necessary to inform affected individuals of a restricted period without disclosing the reason.  If you are made aware of such a restricted period, do not disclose its existence to anyone.

In addition to the above, and to ensure compliance with this Policy and applicable federal and state securities laws, it is the Company’s policy that all Access Personnel refrain from conducting any transactions involving the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities during a “Blackout Period.”  The Blackout Period

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

begins on the last Trading Day of a fiscal quarter, and ends upon the close of trading on the first Trading Day following public announcement of earnings for the quarter (or for the year in the case of the quarter ending December 31).  The Compliance Officer may extend the Blackout Period or institute new Blackout Periods in his sole discretion.  The Compliance Officer may waive compliance with a Blackout Period if, following consultation with the Company’s legal counsel, the Compliance Officer concludes that all material information concerning the Company has been publicly disclosed or, in the case of a proposed private transaction in the Company's securities, that neither party to such transaction is in possession of Inside Information which is not also known by the other party.

No Subject Person may trade in Company securities, even if outside the Blackout Period, while in possession of Inside Information.  Trading in the Company’s securities outside of a Blackout Period should not be considered a “safe harbor,” and all Access Personnel and other Subject Persons should use good judgment at all times.

In order to prevent Access Personnel from accidentally engaging in a trade when trading is not allowed, Access Personnel may not enter any market limit orders for securities of the Company except market limit orders which expire within the time allowed for trading after receiving written permission to trade from the Compliance Officer.  All other market limit orders for securities of the Company are prohibited, and all Access Personnel must immediately cancel any existing market limit orders upon receipt of this Policy.  This paragraph does not apply to approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plans.

Restrictions on Margining and Pledging of Company Securities

Access Personnel may not margin or pledge Company securities.    

​

Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 provides an affirmative defense against insider trading liability for a transaction done pursuant to a “blind trust” (i.e. a trust in which investment control has been delegated to a third party, such as an institutional or professional trustee) or pursuant to a written plan, or a binding contract or instruction, entered into in good faith at a time when the insider was not aware of Inside Information, even though the transaction in question may occur at a time when the person is aware of Inside Information.  The Company may, in appropriate circumstances, permit transactions pursuant to a blind trust or a trading program that fully complies with Rule 10b5-1 to take place during a Blackout Period or otherwise when the Subject Person is in possession of Inside Information.  If you are one of the Access Personnel and you wish to establish a blind trust or trading program, you must pre-clear it with the Compliance Officer.  With respect to arrangements that result or may result in transactions taking place during Blackout Periods, the Compliance Officer will review such arrangements in light of guidelines that he or she from time to time establishes, with input from the Board of Directors and Company legal counsel, if appropriate.  Any such arrangements may be subject to approval by the Board of Directors.  The Company reserves the right to bar any transactions in Company securities, even those pursuant to arrangements previously approved, if the Compliance Officer or the Board of Directors, in consultation with legal counsel, determines that such a bar is in the best interests of the Company.  The Company’s

​

Exhibit 19.1

​

General Counsel will provide a quarterly report to the Board of Directors of 10b5-1 trading program activity by the Company’s directors and officers.      

​

For purposes of the Policy, the Company considers that the exercise of stock options under the Company’s stock option plans is exempt from this Policy, since the other party to the transaction is the Company itself and the price does not vary with the market but is fixed by the terms of the option agreement or the plan.  This exception includes any net exercise of the option pursuant to which you have elected to have the Company withhold shares of stock to satisfy tax withholding requirements or the exercise price of the option (but this does not include broker-assisted cashless exercises or market sales of the purchased shares).

Exception for Share Splits, Share Dividends and Similar Transactions

The trading restrictions under this Policy do not apply to a change in the number of securities held as a result of a share split or share dividend applying equally to all securities of a class, or similar transactions.

Exception for Inheritance

The trading restrictions under this Policy do not apply to transfers by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

​

Exception for Change in Form of Ownership

Transactions that involve merely a change in the form in which you own securities are permissible.  For example, you may transfer shares to an inter vivos trust of which you are the sole beneficiary during your lifetime.

Directors and executive officers of the Company must also comply with the reporting obligations and limitations on short-swing transactions set forth in Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The practical effect of these provisions is that Section 16 Insiders who purchase and sell the Company’s securities within a six-month period must disgorge all profits to the Company whether or not they had knowledge of any Inside Information.  Under these provisions, and so long as certain other criteria are met, in most cases neither the receipt of an option under the Company’s option plans, nor the exercise of that option is deemed a purchase under Section 16; however, the sale of any such shares is a sale under Section 16.  The exercise of options by Section 16 Insiders, although not subject to short-swing liability, must be disclosed on a Form 4 filed within two business days after the exercise occurs.  The Company has provided, or will provide, separate memoranda and other appropriate materials to its officers and directors regarding compliance with Section 16 and its related rules.

Please direct your questions as to any of the matters discussed in the Policy to the Compliance Officer.
