CLNE PLASMAFLOW HOLDINGS, LLC 2023 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Adopted on February 23, 2023

SECTION 1ESTABLISHMENT AND PURPOSE.

The purpose of the Plan is to offer selected persons a proprietary interest in the success of the Company, or to increase such interest, by the grant of Awards. In the event any term or provision of this Plan conflicts with the LLC Agreement, the terms and provisions of the LLC Agreement shall govern.

Capitalized terms are defined in Section 17.

SECTION 2ADMINISTRATION.

The Plan will be administered by the Manager (which shall initially be Clean Energy), who shall have full authority and discretion to take any actions it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. All decisions, interpretations and other actions of the Manager shall be final and binding on all Participants.

SECTION 3ELIGIBILITY.

Only Employees, Officers and Consultants shall be eligible for the grant of Awards pursuant to this Plan. Options will only be granted to an Employee, Officer or Consultant if the Company would be considered an “eligible issuer of service recipient stock” (as that term is used in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(5)(E)) with respect to such Employee, Officer or Consultant. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be considered an “eligible issuer of service recipient stock” (as that term is used in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(5)(E)) solely with respect to an Employee, Officer or Consultant that provides services directly to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company.

SECTION 4AWARDS SUBJECT TO PLAN.

(a)Initial Authorization. The Company initially has authorized the number and type of Units to be issued under the Plan as is set forth in the LLC Agreement (subject to Section 6 below), including Units to be issued on exercise of Options. The Manager may, in its sole discretion, issue such Units as Profits Interests hereunder. A Profits Interest shall be any Unit that, at the time it is issued, is designated as such by the Manager. The Company, during the term of the Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available sufficient Units to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

(b)Additional Units. In the event that Units issued under the Plan are reacquired by the Company, or in the event an Option expires or becomes unexerciseable without having been exercised in full, such reacquired Units or the Units that underlie such expired or unexerciseable Options shall be added to the number of Units then available for issuance under the Plan. In addition, the Company may authorize and issue under this Plan additional Units, or

​

​

​

​

authorize and issue new classes of Units in the Company, in such amounts and with such rights, preferences and privileges, and may authorize and issue Options to acquire such Units, in each case as the Manager determines in its sole discretion. The Manager shall be authorized to, and shall, amend this Plan and the LLC Agreement to the extent necessary to provide for such additional Units or classes of Units.

SECTION 5TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS.

(a)Award Agreement. Each grant of an Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Participant and the Company. Such Award shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and LLC Agreement and may be subject to any other terms and conditions that are not inconsistent with the Plan and LLC Agreement and that the Manager deems appropriate for inclusion in an Award Agreement. The provisions of the various Award Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical. No Award shall be granted unless the Participant has delivered an executed copy of the Award Agreement to the Company.

(b)Number of Units and Option Term. Each Award Agreement shall specify the number of Units that are being granted as Units, or the number of Units for which an Option is exercisable. Options shall have a term of not more than 120 months.

(c)Vesting. Each Award Agreement shall specify the vesting schedule applicable to the Award addressed thereby. The Manager shall determine the vesting provisions of any Award Agreement in its sole discretion.

(d)Restrictions on Transfer of Units. Any Award granted under the Plan shall be subject to (i) the terms of the LLC Agreement and any other agreement among the Members and (ii) such special forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Manager may determine. Such special restrictions shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement and shall apply in addition to the restrictions that apply to holders of Units generally under the LLC Agreement or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, Units issuable on exercise of an Option shall be subject to the foregoing provisions.

(e)Non-vested Awards. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6, if a Participant’s Service is terminated by the Participant or by the Company for any reason before an Award has fully vested, unless otherwise determined by the Manager or unless otherwise provided in the Participant’s Award Agreement, the Participant will forfeit all non-vested Units and Options to the Company for no consideration without further action by the Company.

(f)Withholding Taxes. As a condition to a grant of, and distributions or deliveries with respect to, any Award, the Participant shall make such arrangements as the Manager may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such grant, distributions or deliveries. The Participant shall also make such arrangements as the Manager may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the disposition of an Award.

​

​

(g)No Rights as a Member. A Participant, or a transferee of a Participant, shall have no rights as a Member or assignee with respect to any Unit until such person has satisfied any requirements imposed on Members or assignees by applicable law and the LLC Agreement.

(h)IRS Form W-8 or Form W-9. Each Participant shall deliver to the Company a duly completed and properly executed IRS Form W-8 (in the case of non-U.S. residents) or IRS Form W-9 (in the case of U.S. citizens or residents) and such other tax forms as the Manager reasonably requests.

(i)LLC Agreement. Each Participant granted or issued Units shall agree to be bound by and comply with the terms of the LLC Agreement. Schedule A of the LLC Agreement shall be amended to reflect the issuance of Units to a Participant under this Plan.

(j)Modification and Assumption of Units. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Manager may modify or assume outstanding Awards (whether granted by the Company or another issuer) in return for the grant of a different Award. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Award shall, without the consent of the Participant, impair the Participant’s rights or increase the Participant’s obligations as a holder of such Award except as set forth herein, in an applicable Award Agreement or in the LLC Agreement.

SECTION 6ADJUSTMENT OF UNITS; LIQUIDITY EVENTS; CHANGE IN CONTROL OF CEFC.

(a)General. In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Units, a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Units into a lesser number of Units, a recapitalization, a spin-off, a reclassification, a merger or consolidation, a restructuring or separation or a similar occurrence (other than a Liquidity Event), corresponding adjustments automatically shall be made in each of (i) the number and kind of Units available for future grants under Section 4 and (ii) the number and kind of Units issued and outstanding hereunder or subject to Options issued and outstanding hereunder, in each case subject to the LLC Agreement. In addition, in the event any such transaction results in the Units becoming, directly or indirectly, securities having a different denomination, all references in the Plan to Units automatically shall be converted into references to such securities using such different denomination, and in the event any such transaction results in the Units or such securities becoming interests in an entity other than the Company, all references to the Company automatically shall be converted into references to such other entity.

(b)Liquidity Events with respect to Units. In the event the Company directly or indirectly engages in a sale, distribution, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (or of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets not in the ordinary course of business), including without limitation the disposition of substantially all the assets of Rimere, LLC, or an acquisition of Units by a person or group of persons acting in concert of 50% or more of the outstanding Units (whether by direct acquisition, merger or consolidation or otherwise), a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or a similar transaction (a “Liquidity Event”), unless expressly provided otherwise in an Award Agreement, all then outstanding and unvested Units issued hereunder shall become fully vested immediately prior to the closing of the Liquidity Event, and all outstanding Units issued hereunder, including Units outstanding following

​

​

the exercise of an Option, shall be subject to the agreement governing such Liquidity Event and the LLC Agreement. The agreement governing the Liquidity Event may provide for one or more of the following:

(i)The continuation of such outstanding Units by the Company (if the Company is the surviving entity).

(ii)The conversion of such outstanding Units by the surviving entity or its parent into equity of the surviving entity or its parent on terms equivalent to the terms applicable to the conversion of Units that are not Units issued hereunder (but taking into account any difference in value of the Units issued hereunder compared to Units not issued hereunder at the time of the Liquidity Event).

(iii)The redemption of such outstanding Units and a payment to the Participants equal to the amount distributable to such Units pursuant to the LLC Agreement. Such payment shall be made in the form of cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the surviving entity or its parent with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount distributable or deemed distributable in the Liquidity Event. Such payment may be made in installments. If no amounts would be distributable to such Units, then such Units may be cancelled without making a payment to the Participants. For purposes of this paragraph (iii), the Fair Market Value of any security shall be determined in good faith by the Manager.

(iv)Any combination of the foregoing.

(c)Liquidity Event with respect to Options. In the event the Company engages in a Liquidity Event, unless expressly provided otherwise in an Award Agreement, all then outstanding and unvested Options shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the closing of the Liquidity Event, and all outstanding Options shall be subject to the agreement governing such Liquidity Event and the LLC Agreement. The agreement governing the Liquidity Event may provide for one or more of the following:

(i)The Assumption or Replacement of such outstanding Options.

(ii)The cashing out of such outstanding Options based on the exercise price per Unit for Units issuable on exercise of such Options and the amounts distributable to Units of the same class pursuant to the LLC Agreement. Such payment shall be made in the form of cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the surviving entity or its parent with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount distributable or deemed distributable in the Liquidity Event. If no amounts would be distributable with respect to such Options, then such Options may be cancelled without making a payment to the Participants. For purposes of this paragraph (ii), the Fair Market Value of any security shall be determined in good faith by the Manager.

(iii)Any combination of the foregoing.

(d)Change in Control of CEFC. Unless expressly provided otherwise in an Award Agreement, if, on or within twelve (12) months after the occurrence of a Change in Control of CEFC, (i) the Participant’s Continuous Service is terminated by the Company or successor

​

​

entity (or any Related Entity of the Company or a successor entity) without Cause or (ii) the Participant terminates his or her Continuous Service for Good Reason, the unvested portion of such Participant’s then outstanding Awards will become fully vested (and, with respect to Options, exercisable) immediately upon such termination.

(e)Reservation of Rights. The grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge, consolidate or exchange equity interests or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

SECTION 7OPTION EXERCISE.

(a)Exercise Price. The per Unit exercise price for an Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Unit on the date of grant.

(b)Consideration. Subject to applicable law, the consideration to be paid for the Units to be issued upon exercise or purchase of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Manager in its sole discretion.

(c)Taxes. Upon exercise of an Option, the Company shall withhold or collect from the Participant an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable withholding tax obligations, including, but not limited to, by surrender of the whole number of Units covered by the Option sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable tax withholding obligations incident to the exercise of an Option (reduced to the lowest whole number of Units if such number of Units withheld would result in withholding a fractional Unit with any remaining tax withholding settled in cash).

(d)Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Member.

(i)Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Manager under the terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may not be exercised prior to an Incorporation or a Liquidity Event with respect to such Options unless otherwise determined by the Manager.

(ii)An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the Units with respect to which the Option is exercised has been made.

SECTION 8CONDITIONS TO ISSUANCE.

(a)Compliance with Law. Units or Options shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Units or Options comply with (or are exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Company’s securities may then be traded. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the Units or Options under federal or state laws.

​

(b)Other. As a condition to the issuance of Units under the Plan, the Company may require the recipient thereof to represent and warrant at the time of any such issuance that the Units are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Units. The Company shall require the person receiving Units under the Plan to execute and deliver a signature page to, and agree to comply with, the provisions of the LLC Agreement and to make such representations and warranties contained in the LLC Agreement that are required of Members of the Company.

SECTION 9NO RETENTION RIGHTS.

Nothing in this Plan or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Related Entity employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her Service at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause.
