On December 4, 2018, Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (the Company) purchased all of the Companys outstanding 7.5% Convertible Notes due July 2019, having an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $50.0 million (collectively, the Notes), from all of the holders thereof. The Company paid to such holders an aggregate cash purchase price of $50.5 million plus all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes. Before such repurchase, the Notes represented the Companys highest-cost and nearest-maturity outstanding convertible debt. By purchasing the Notes prior to maturity the Company expects to save approximately $2.2 million it would have otherwise paid in interest on the Notes.
