As previously disclosed, on March 25, 2011, Clean Energy Fuels Corp.’s (the “Registrant’) 70% owned subsidiary Dallas Clean Energy McCommas Bluff, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), arranged for a $40.2 million tax-exempt bond issuance led by Senior Managing Underwriter First Southwest Company. The bond issuance closed on March 31, 2011.

 

At closing a portion of the bond proceeds were used to retire an approximately $11.5 million bridge loan made by the Registrant to the Company. The Registrant, in turn, used the proceeds from the payoff of the bridge loan to repay approximately $8.0 million owed by the Registrant to PlainsCapital Bank.
