RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before you make a decision to buy our securities, in addition to the risks and uncertainties discussed above under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the specific risks set forth herein. If any of these risks actually occur, it may materially harm our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. As a result, the market price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. Additionally, the risks and uncertainties described in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or in any document incorporated by reference herein or therein are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may become material and adversely affect our business.

Risks Related to Global Gas’ Business and Industry

Our limited operating history makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of your investment.

You must consider the risks and difficulties we face as an early stage company with a limited operating history. If we do not successfully address these risks, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely harmed. We have a very limited operating history on which investors can base an evaluation of our business, operating results and prospects. There are no assurances that we will be able to secure future business with potential customers. As an early stage company, it is difficult to predict our future revenues and appropriately budget for our expenses, and we have limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect our business. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates or we adjust our estimates in future periods, our operating results and financial position could be materially affected. Our performance and expectations depend on the successful implementation of management’s growth strategies and are based on assumptions and events over which we have only partial or no control, including, but not limited to, adverse economic conditions, regulatory developments, our ability to finance our contemplated operations, difficulties in engineering, delays in designs or materials provided by the customer or a third party, equipment and materials delivery delays, schedule changes, customer scope changes, delays related to obtaining regulatory permits and rights-of-way, inability to find adequate sources of labor in the locations where we are building new plants, weather-related delays, delays by customers’ contractors in completing their portion of a project, technical or transportation difficulties, cost overruns, supply difficulties, geopolitical risks and other factors. The assumptions underlying our expectations require the exercise of judgment and may not occur, and the expectations are subject to uncertainty due to the effects of economic, business, competitive, regulatory, legislative, and political or other changes.

Our success depends on our ability to obtain customers and implement our business strategy.

We currently do not have any customers and have not generated any revenue. If we fail to implement our business strategy, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Our future financial performance and success depend in large part on our ability to successfully implement our business strategy. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement our business strategy or be able to improve our operating results. In particular, we cannot assure you that we will successfully negotiate and sign contracts with customers and suppliers nor can we assure you that we will be able to successfully execute our contracts if signed. Potential projects are added to the project development pipeline only after Global Gas has met with the potential customer, discussed the scope of the project and discussed the project’s feasibility, preliminary sizing and design. Implementation of our business strategy may be impacted by factors outside of our control, including competition, commodity price fluctuations, industry, legal and regulatory changes or developments and general economic and political conditions. Any failure to successfully implement our business strategy could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We may, in addition, decide to alter or discontinue certain aspects of our business strategy at any time.

Our business model has yet to be tested and any failure to commercialize our strategic plans would have an adverse effect on our operating results and business, harm our reputation and could result in substantial liabilities that exceed our resources.

Investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by a new enterprise, many of which are beyond our control, including substantial risks and expenses in the course of establishing or entering new markets, organizing operations and undertaking marketing activities. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of these risks, expenses, complications, delays and the competitive environment in which we operate. There is, therefore, nothing at this time upon which to base an assumption that our business plan will prove successful, and we may not be able to generate significant revenue, raise additional capital or operate profitably. We will continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently experienced by early commercial stage companies, including scaling up our infrastructure and headcount, and may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties or delays in connection with our growth. In addition, as a result of the capital-intensive nature of our business, we can be expected to continue to sustain substantial operating expenses and may not generate sufficient revenues to cover expenditures. Any investment in our company is therefore highly speculative and could result in the loss of your entire investment.

Risks related to the approval, execution, and operation of our future projects may adversely affect our operations or financial results.

Much of our future business involves engineering, procurement and construction phases that may last several years and involve the investment of millions of dollars. These projects may be technically complex, are often reliant on significant interaction with government authorities and face significant financing, development, operational and reputational risks. These projects may also be subject to complex government approvals, as well as legal or regulatory challenges by government authorities or third parties. Delays in receiving required approvals or related to litigation could require us to delay or abandon certain projects, which may result in the incurrence of additional expense, the loss of invested proceeds, and reputational damage.

We may encounter difficulties in engineering, delays in designs or materials provided by the customer or a third party, equipment and materials delivery delays, schedule changes, customer scope changes, delays related to obtaining regulatory permits and rights-of-way, inability to find adequate sources of labor in the locations where we are building new plants, weather-related delays, delays by customers’ contractors in completing their portion of a project, technical or transportation difficulties, cost overruns, supply difficulties, financial difficulties suffered by our subcontractors or suppliers, geopolitical risks and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, that may impact our ability to complete a project within the original delivery schedule. In some cases, delays and additional costs may be substantial, and we may be required to cancel a project and/or compensate the customer for the delay. We may not be able to recover any of these costs. In addition, in some cases we may seek financing for large projects and face market risk associated with the availability and terms of such financing. These financing arrangements may require that we comply with certain performance requirements which, if not met, could result in default and restructuring costs or other losses. All of these factors could also negatively impact our reputation or relationships with our customers, suppliers and other third parties, any of which could adversely affect our ability to secure new projects in the future.

The future operation of our facilities inherently entails hazards that require continuous oversight and control, such as pipeline leaks and ruptures, fire, explosions, toxic releases, mechanical failures, vehicle accidents, or cyber incidents. If operational risks materialize, they could result in loss of life, damage to the environment, or loss of production, all of which could negatively impact our ongoing operations, reputation, financial results, and cash flows. In addition, our operating results are dependent on the continued operation of our production facilities and our ability to meet customer requirements, which depend, in part, on our ability to properly maintain and replace aging assets.

Global Gas’ management has limited experience in operating a public company.

Global Gas’ management has limited experience in the management of a publicly traded company. Global Gas’ management team may not successfully or effectively manage its transition to a public company that will be subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Their limited experience in dealing with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies could be a significant disadvantage in that it is likely that an increasing amount of their time may be devoted to these activities which will result in less

time being devoted to the management and growth of the post-combination company. Global Gas may not have adequate personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal control over financial reporting required of public companies in the U.S. Any fault in Global Gas’ finance and accounting systems could impact its ability or prevent it from timely reporting its operating results, timely filing required reports with the SEC and complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The development and implementation of the standards and controls necessary for Global Gas to achieve the level of accounting standards required of a public company in the U.S. may require costs greater than expected. It is possible that Global Gas will be required to expand its employee base and hire additional employees to support its operations as a public company which will increase its operating costs in future periods.

We may have difficulty managing growth in our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to execute its business plan in a timely fashion.

Because of our small size, growth in accordance with our business plans, if achieved, will place a significant strain on our financial, technical, operational and management resources. If we expand our activities, developments and production, and increase the number of projects we are evaluating or in which we participate, there will be additional demands on our financial, technical and management resources. The failure to continue to upgrade our technical, administrative, operating and financial control systems or the occurrence of unexpected expansion difficulties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to execute our business plan in a timely fashion.

An increase in energy costs, including as a result of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our results of operations may be affected by volatility in the cost and availability of energy, which is subject to global supply and demand and other factors beyond our control. The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as the hostilities in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas, has impacted global energy markets, particularly in Europe, leading to high volatility and increasing prices for crude oil, natural gas and other energy supplies. Higher energy costs may result in increases in operating expenses at our potential manufacturing facilities, in the expense of shipping materials to our potential facilities, and in the expense of operating certain of our potential projects for which we may procure natural gas, all of which may in turn adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our strategy to outsource various elements of the products and services we sell may subject us to the business risks of our suppliers and subcontractors, which could have a material adverse impact on our operations.

In areas where we will depend on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for outsourced equipment, products, components or services, we will be subject to the risk of customer dissatisfaction with the quality or performance of the equipment, products or services we sell due to supplier or subcontractor failure. Suppliers and subcontractors may not have the same incentives we do and may not allocate adequate or sufficient time and/or resources for performing services for us. In addition, business difficulties experienced by a third-party supplier or subcontractor could lead to the interruption of our ability to obtain outsourced equipment, products or services and ultimately our inability to supply equipment, products or services to our customers. Third-party supplier and subcontractor business interruptions may include, but are not limited to, work stoppages, union negotiations and other labor disputes. Current or future economic conditions could also impact the ability of suppliers and subcontractors to access credit and, thus, impair their ability to provide us quality products or services in a timely manner, or at all.

Cost overruns, delays, penalties or liquidated damages could negatively impact our results, particularly with respect to fixed-price contracts for our custom configured products.

We expect a significant portion of our net sales and earnings will be generated through fixed-price contracts for custom configured products. We expect most of these contracts will provide for penalties or liquidated damages for failure to timely perform our obligations under the contract, or require that we, at our own expense, correct and remedy to the satisfaction of the other party certain defects. Therefore, we expect to face the risk that cost overruns, delays, penalties or liquidated damages may exceed, erode or eliminate our expected profit margin, or cause us to record a loss on certain of our projects.

Catastrophic events could disrupt our operations and/or our customers and suppliers and may have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations.

The occurrence of catastrophic events or natural disasters such as extreme weather, including hurricanes and floods; health epidemics; pandemics, such as COVID-19; and acts of war or terrorism, could impair our ability to produce and distribute its products to customers and could potentially expose us to third-party liability claims. In addition, such events could impact our customers and suppliers resulting in temporary or long-term outages and/or the limitation of supply of energy and other raw materials used in normal business operations.

The inability to attract and retain qualified personnel may adversely impact our business.

If we fail to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel, we may not be able to develop, market or sell our products or successfully manage our business. We are dependent upon a highly skilled, experienced and efficient workforce to be successful. The inability to attract and hire qualified individuals or the loss of key employees in very skilled areas could have a negative effect on our financial results.

We may be unable to successfully execute and operate our hydrogen production projects, and such projects may cost more and take longer to complete than we expect.

As part of our strategy, the Company may, in the future, develop and construct hydrogen production facilities at locations across the United States and Europe. Our ability to successfully complete and operate these projects is not guaranteed. The ability to complete these projects may impact our ability to meet and supplement the hydrogen demands for our products and services for prospective customers. The timing and cost to complete the construction of our hydrogen production projects are subject to a number of factors outside of our control and such projects may take longer and cost more to complete and become operational than we expect.

The viability and competitiveness of our potential hydrogen production facilities may depend, in part, upon favorable laws, regulations, and policies related to hydrogen production. Some of these laws, regulations, and policies are nascent, and there is no guarantee that they will be favorable to our projects. Additionally, any facilities we develop will be subject to numerous and new permitting, regulations, laws, and policies, many of which might vary by jurisdiction. Hydrogen production facilities are also subject to robust competition from well-established multinational companies in the energy industry. There is no guarantee that our hydrogen production strategy will be successful amidst this competitive environment.

We may enter into joint ventures which could impose certain restrictions on our operations in the future and could create risk related to our potential co-venturers.

In the future, we may enter into joint ventures. Depending on the terms of these potential ventures, we may be restricted in our ability to operate in certain areas or undertake certain courses of action. These potential arrangements may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including our ability to cooperate with our strategic partners, our strategic partners having interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours, and the potential that our strategic partners may be unable to meet their economic or other obligations to any future joint venture, which may negatively impact the expected benefits of any future joint venture and cause us to incur additional expense or suffer reputational damage. In addition, due to the nature of these potential arrangements, we may have limited ability to direct or influence the management of any future joint venture, which may limit our ability to assist and oversee the design and implementation of any future joint venture’s business as well as its accounting, legal, governance, human resources, information technology, and other administrative systems. This may expose us to additional risks and uncertainties because we may be dependent upon and subject to liability, losses, or reputational damage relating to systems, controls, and personnel that are not under our control.

In the future, if we develop or acquire proprietary intellectual property, protecting such intellectual property will be critical to our operations and we may suffer competitive harm from infringement on such rights.

If we develop or acquire new technologies, it will be critical that we protect our intellectual property assets against third-party infringement. Though we currently do not own any patents, we do own intellectual property related to our branding. If we develop or acquire intellectual property, there is a risk that our patent applications

may not be granted, or we may not receive sufficient protection of our proprietary interests. We may also expend considerable resources in defending any future patents against third-party infringement. It may become critical that we protect our proprietary intellectual property interests to prevent competitive harm.

Current inflationary trends, economic downturn and weakness in the economy, market trends, and other conditions affecting the profitability and financial stability of our potential customers could negatively impact the growth of our business and the acquisition of customers.

The demand for our products and services is sensitive to the production activity, capital spending and demand for products and services of our potential customers worldwide. Recently, we have observed increased economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad, including inflation and higher interest rates. Impacts of such economic weakness include falling overall demand for goods and services, leading to reduced profitability, reduced credit availability, higher borrowing costs, reduced liquidity, volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets, and bankruptcies. These developments may lead to supply chain disruption and transportation delays which may negatively impact our business and growth. In addition, as our potential customers react to global economic conditions and the potential for a global recession, they may reduce spending on the products and services we plan to provide, which may lead to our inability to attract customers and could limit our ability to grow our business and negatively affect our operating results and financial condition.

Risks Related to Regulations and Litigation

We will be subject to extensive government regulation in the jurisdictions in which we do business. Regulations addressing, among other things, import/export restrictions, anti-bribery and corruption and taxes have the potential to negatively impact our financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

We will be subject to government regulation in the United States and in the foreign jurisdictions where we may conduct business. The application of laws and regulations to our business is sometimes unclear. Compliance with laws and regulations may involve significant costs or require changes in business practices that could result in reduced profitability. If there is a determination that we have failed to comply with applicable laws or regulations, we may be subject to penalties or sanctions that could adversely impact our reputation and financial results. Compliance with changes in laws or regulations can result in increased operating costs and require additional, unplanned capital expenditures. Export controls or other regulatory restrictions could prevent us from shipping our products to and from some markets or increase the cost of doing so. Changes in tax laws and regulations could affect the financial results of our businesses. Increasingly aggressive enforcement of anti-bribery and anti-corruption requirements, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the United Kingdom Bribery Act and the China Anti-Unfair Competition Law, could subject us to criminal or civil sanctions if a violation is deemed to have occurred. In addition, we may be subject to laws and sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other jurisdictions where we plan to do business that may prohibit us from doing business in certain countries, or restricting the kind of business that we may conduct. Such restrictions may provide a competitive advantage to competitors who are not subject to comparable restrictions or prevent us from taking advantage of growth opportunities.

Further, we cannot guarantee that our internal controls and compliance systems will always protect us from acts committed by employees, agents, business partners or that businesses that we acquire would not violate U.S. and/or non-U.S. laws, including the laws governing payments to government officials, bribery, fraud, kickbacks and false claims, pricing, sales and marketing practices, conflicts of interest, competition, export and import compliance, money laundering, and data privacy. Any such improper actions or allegations of such acts could damage our reputation and subject us to civil or criminal investigations in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions and related stockholder lawsuits, could lead to substantial civil and criminal, monetary and non-monetary penalties, and could cause us to incur significant legal and investigatory fees. In addition, governments may seek to hold us liable as a successor for violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire.

We will be subject to various environmental laws and regulations that could impose substantial costs upon us and cause delays in building production facilities.

Our operations will be subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including laws relating to the use, handling, storage, disposal of and human exposure to hazardous materials. Environmental and health and safety laws and regulations can be complex, and we have limited experience complying with them. Moreover, we expect that we will be affected by future amendments to such laws or other new environmental and health and safety laws and regulations which may require us to change our operations, potentially resulting in a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. These laws can give rise to liability for administrative oversight costs, cleanup costs, property damage, bodily injury, fines and penalties. Capital and operating expenses needed to comply with environmental laws and regulations can be significant, and violations may result in substantial fines and penalties, third-party damages, suspension of production or a cessation of our operations.

Contamination at properties we may own or operate may result in liability for us under environmental laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which can impose liability for the full amount of remediation-related costs without regard to fault, for the investigation and cleanup of contaminated soil and ground water, for building contamination and impacts to human health and for damages to natural resources. The costs of complying with environmental laws and regulations and any claims concerning noncompliance, or liability with respect to contamination in the future, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operating results. We may face unexpected delays in obtaining the required permits and approvals in connection with our potential production facilities that could require significant time and financial resources and delay our ability to operate such facilities, which would adversely impact our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Legislative, regulatory, societal and market efforts to address global climate change may impact our business and create financial risk.

In the production of hydrogen, we may use processes which capture greenhouse gases (“GHG”), such as carbon dioxide, which would otherwise be emitted. The technologies we employ for GHG capture may not successfully capture 100% of the GHG produced. Increased public concern and governmental action may result in more international, U.S. federal and/or regional requirements to reduce or mitigate the effects of GHG emissions or increased demand for technologies and projects to limit the impact of global climate change. Although uncertain, these developments could increase our costs related to consumption of electric power, hydrogen production and application of our gasification technology. Any legislation or governmental action that limits or taxes GHG emissions could negatively impact our growth, increase our operating costs, or reduce demand for certain of our products.

In addition, standards for tracking and reporting environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters continue to evolve. New laws, regulations, policies and international accords relating to ESG matters, including sustainability, climate change, human capital and diversity, are being developed and formalized in Europe, the United States, Asia and elsewhere, which may entail specific, target-driven frameworks and/or disclosure requirements. If our ESG practices do not meet evolving investor or other stakeholder expectations and standards, then our reputation or our attractiveness as an investment, business partner, acquirer, service provider or employer could be negatively impacted.

Costs and expenses resulting from compliance with environmental regulations may negatively impact our operations and financial results.

We will be subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign environmental and safety laws and regulations concerning, among other things, emissions in the air, discharges to land and water and the generation, handling, treatment and disposal of hazardous waste and other materials. There is a risk of adverse environmental impact inherent in our manufacturing operations and in the transportation of our products. Future developments and more stringent environmental regulations may require us to make additional unforeseen environmental expenditures. In addition, laws and regulations may require significant expenditures for environmental protection equipment, compliance and remediation. These additional costs may adversely affect our financial results.

We expect to incur costs to comply with these laws and regulations. Federal, state, and local governments are increasingly regulating and restricting the use of certain chemicals, substances, and materials. For example, laws, regulations, or other policy initiatives might address substances found within component parts to our products, in which event we would be required to comply with such requirements.

Our business may become subject to increased government regulation.

As hydrogen and other relevant products become more broadly available commercially, governments may impose new regulations. We do not know the extent to which any such regulations may impact our ability to manufacture, distribute, install and service our products. Any regulation of our products, whether at the federal, state, local or foreign level, including any regulations relating to the production, operation, installation, and servicing of our products may increase our costs and the price of our products, and noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations could subject us to investigations, sanctions, enforcement actions, fines, damages, civil and criminal penalties, or injunctions. Furthermore, certain business activities may require the Company to navigate a myriad of state- or local-level laws and regulations. If any governmental sanctions are imposed, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and an increase in professional fees. Enforcement actions and sanctions could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Risks Related to Global Gas’ Products and Services

Interruption in ordinary sources of raw material or energy supply or an inability to recover increases in energy and raw material costs from customers could result in lost sales or reduced profitability.

We expect feedstock used for hydrogen generation, such as biogas from wastewater treatment plants, landfills, renewable natural gas, and others, to be significant raw materials for our business. Additionally, we expect energy, including electricity, natural gas, and fuel for delivery trucks, to be a significant cost component of our business. A disruption in the supply of energy, components, or raw materials, whether due to market conditions, legislative or regulatory actions, public health issues, natural events, or other disruption, could prevent us from meeting any future contractual commitments and harm our business and financial results.

We may contract to pass-through cost increases in energy and raw materials to customers, but such cost pass-through results in declining margins, and cost variability can negatively impact our other operating results. For example, we may be unable to raise prices as quickly as costs rise, or competitive pressures may prevent full recovery of such costs. In addition, increases in energy or raw material costs that cannot be passed on to customers for competitive or other reasons may negatively impact our revenues and earnings. Even where costs are passed through, price increases can cause lower sales volume. Other economic factors outside of our control, including inflation and energy price fluctuations, may increase our costs and adversely affect our business.

Our ability to source parts and raw materials from our suppliers could be disrupted or delayed in our supply chain which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our planned operations will require significant amounts of necessary parts and raw materials. If we are unable to source these parts or raw materials, our future operations may be disrupted, or we could experience a delay or halt in our business. Reduced availability or interruption in supplies, whether resulting from more stringent regulatory requirements, supplier financial condition, increases in duties and tariff costs, disruptions in transportation, an outbreak of a severe public health pandemic, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants of COVID-19, severe weather, or the occurrence or threat of wars or other conflicts, could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For example, the Company may experience supply chain issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including but not limited to suppliers utilizing force majeure provisions under potential, future contracts. Furthermore, the ongoing global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant challenges for global supply chains resulting in inflationary cost pressures, component shortages, and transportation delays. We expect that these challenges could continue to have an impact on our businesses for the foreseeable future.

The production, transport, and containment of hydrogen and certain other gases as contemplated by our future projects creates risk of adverse events which may harm our business.

Our contemplated products include hydrogen and certain other gases which are inherently dangerous. In the future, if we produce, transport and store such gases, there is risk that we may negatively be affected by product safety issues, product liability, other claims, product recalls, negative publicity, or increased regulatory scrutiny of our products. Any liability for damages from malfunctions, accidents, or other events could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, an actual or perceived problem with hydrogen generally or our products could adversely affect the market’s perception of our products resulting in a decline in demand for our products and services, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We will rely on complex machinery for our operations and production involves a significant degree of risk and uncertainty in terms of operational performance and costs.

We will rely heavily on complex machinery for our operations and our production will involve a significant degree of uncertainty and risk in terms of operational performance and costs. We plan to own and operate gas generation and carbon recovery plants, which may consist of large-scale machinery combining many components. The plant components are likely to suffer unexpected malfunctions from time to time and will depend on repairs and spare parts to resume operations, which may not be available when needed. Unexpected malfunctions of the plant components may significantly affect the intended operational efficiency. Operational performance and costs can be difficult to predict and are often influenced by factors outside of our control, such as, but not limited to, scarcity of natural resources, environmental hazards and remediation, costs associated with decommissioning of machines, labor disputes and strikes, difficulty or delays in obtaining governmental permits, damages or defects in electronic systems, industrial accidents, fire, and seismic activity and natural disasters. Should operational risks materialize, it may result in the personal injury to or death of workers, the loss of production equipment, damage to manufacturing facilities, monetary losses, delays and unanticipated fluctuations in production, environmental damage, administrative fines, increased insurance costs and potential legal liabilities, all which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition or prospects.

Inability to compete effectively could adversely impact our future sales and financial performance.

We face strong competition from large international competitors and many smaller regional competitors. Introduction by competitors of new technologies, competing products, or additional capacity could weaken demand for, or impact pricing of our products, negatively impacting financial results. In addition, competitors’ pricing policies could affect our future profitability or market share.

Some of our competitors are much larger than we are and may have the manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities to complete research, development, and commercialization of products more quickly and effectively than we can. There are many companies engaged in all areas of traditional and alternative industrial gas generation in the United States and abroad. Additionally, established companies may decide to broaden their operations into our area of business. We believe that our business model has competitive strengths; however, if we are unable to compete in the market for our products and services, our business may be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Cybersecurity and Data Privacy

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of computer system failures, cyber-attacks or deficiencies in our or third parties’ cybersecurity.

We are increasingly dependent upon information technology systems, infrastructure and data to operate our business. In the ordinary course of business, we may collect, store and transmit confidential information, including, but not limited to, information related to our intellectual property and proprietary business information, personal information and other confidential information. We may outsource elements of our operations to third party vendors, who each have access to our confidential information, which increases our disclosure risk. Although we plan to implement internal security and business continuity measures, our information technology and other internal infrastructure systems may breakdown, incur damage or be interrupted by system malfunctions, natural disasters, terrorism, war or telecommunication and electrical failures, as well as by inadvertent or intentional security breaches

by our employees, contractors, consultants, business partners and/or other third parties, or from cyber-attacks by malicious third parties, each of which could compromise our system infrastructure or lead to the loss, destruction, alteration, disclosure or dissemination of, or damage or unauthorized access to, our data or other assets. Such a security breach may cause loss, damage or disclosure of proprietary or confidential information, which could in turn result in significant legal and financial exposure and reputational damage that could adversely affect our business.

The costs related to significant security breaches or disruptions could be material and our insurance policies may not be adequate to compensate us for the potential losses arising from any such security breach. In addition, such insurance may not be available to us on economically reasonable terms, if at all, may not cover all claims made against us, and may have high deductibles. Furthermore, if the information technology systems of our third-party vendors and other contractors and consultants become subject to disruptions or security breaches, we may have insufficient recourse against such third parties and we may have to expend significant resources to mitigate the impact of such an event, and to develop and implement protections to prevent future events of this nature from occurring.

Risks Related to Finance, Accounting and Tax Matters

Our actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used to prepare our consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses for the periods covered and certain amounts disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. These estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements and actual results could differ from those estimates, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We may need to raise additional funds and these funds may not be available to us when needed. If we cannot raise additional funds when we need them, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be negatively affected.

The sourcing, purchasing, development, and servicing of our projects may be capital-intensive. We may determine that additional funds are necessary. This capital may be necessary to fund our future operations and to locate new opportunities. We may raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity related or debt securities or through obtaining credit from government or financial institutions. We cannot be certain that additional funds will be available on favorable terms when required, or at all. If we cannot raise additional funds when needed, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Our financial results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

We expect our revenue and operating results to vary from quarter to quarter. We may incur significant operating expenses during the start-up and early stages of large contracts and may not be able to recognize corresponding revenue in that same quarter. We may also incur additional expenses when contracts are terminated or expire and are not renewed. We may also incur additional expenses when companies are newly acquired. Payments that may be due to us from our future customers may be delayed due to billing cycles or as a result of failures of government budgets to gain congressional and administration approval in a timely manner.

Additional factors that may cause our financial results to fluctuate from quarter to quarter include those addressed elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, including the immediately preceding risk factor, and the following factors, among others:

•        variability in demand for our services and solutions;

•        timing of award or performance incentive fee notices;

•        timing of shipments and deliveries to potential future customers;

•        variable purchasing patterns under blanket purchase agreements and other indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts;

•        terms of potential future contracts which may affect the timing of revenue recognition;

•        costs related to government inquiries;

•        strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, divestitures, spin-offs and joint ventures;

•        strategic investments or changes in business strategy;

•        changes in the extent to which we use subcontractors;

•        potential performance errors in our systems;

•        seasonal fluctuations in our staff utilization rates;

•        changes in our effective tax rate, including changes in our judgment as to the necessity of the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets; and

•        the length of sales cycles.

Credit and counterparty risks could harm our business.

The financial condition of our customers could affect our ability to market our equipment, products and services or to collect receivables. In addition, financial difficulties faced by our customers as a result of an adverse economic event or other market factors may lead to cancellation or delay of orders. Our customers may suffer financial difficulties that make them unable to pay for a product or service when payments become due, or they may decide not to pay us, either as a matter of corporate decision-making or in response to changes in local laws and regulations. We cannot be certain that, in the future, expenses or losses for uncollectible amounts will not have a material adverse effect on our net sales, earnings and cash flows.

The Company is a holding company and its only material asset is its interest in Holdings, and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions made by Holdings to pay dividends, taxes, and other expenses.

The Company is a holding company with no material assets other than its ownership of Holdings Common Units. As a result, the Company has no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow. The Company’s ability to pay dividends, taxes, and other expenses will depend on the financial results and cash flows of Holdings and its subsidiaries and the distributions the Company receives from Holdings. Deterioration in the financial condition, earnings or cash flow of Holdings and its subsidiaries for any reason could limit or impair Holdings’ ability to pay such distributions. Additionally, to the extent that the Company needs funds and Holdings is restricted from making such distributions under applicable law or regulation or under the terms of any financing arrangements, or Holdings is otherwise unable to provide such funds, it could materially adversely affect the Company’s liquidity and financial condition.

Subject to the discussion herein, Holdings will continue to be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, generally will not be subject to any entity-level U.S. federal income tax. Instead, taxable income will be allocated to holders of Holdings Common Units. Accordingly, the Company will be required to pay income taxes on its allocable share of any net taxable income of Holdings. Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “Holdings LLCA”), Holdings is obligated to make tax distributions to holders of the Holdings Common Units (including Dune) calculated at certain assumed tax rates. In addition to tax expenses, the Company will also incur expenses related to its operations, some of which will be reimbursed by Holdings. The Company intends to cause Holdings to make ordinary distributions and tax distributions

To the extent the Company receives tax distributions in excess of its actual tax liabilities and retains such excess cash, the holders of the Holdings Common Units. may benefit from such accumulated cash balances.

Under the terms of the Holdings LLCA, Holding is obligated to make tax distributions to the holders of Holdings Common Units (including the Company) calculated at certain assumed tax rates. Because tax distributions will be made pro rata based on ownership and due to, among other items, differences between the tax rates applicable to the Company and the assumed individual income tax rate used in the calculation and requirements

under the applicable tax rules that Holdings’ net taxable income be allocated disproportionately to its unitholders in certain circumstances, tax distributions may significantly exceed the actual tax liability for certain holders of Holdings Common Units, including the Company.

The Company would be subject to potentially significant tax inefficiencies if Holdings becomes a publicly traded partnership.

If Holdings were to become a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company and Holdings might be subject to potentially significant tax inefficiencies.

Holdings intends to operate such that it does not become a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A “publicly traded partnership” is a partnership the interests of which are listed for trading on an established securities market or are readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof. Applicable U.S. Treasury regulations provide for certain safe harbors from treatment as a publicly traded partnership, and Holdings intends to operate such that it will qualify for one or more of such safe harbors, although there can be no assurance in this regard.

If Holdings were to become a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, significant tax inefficiencies might result for the Company and for Holdings, for example, if the Company is not able to file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return with Holdings.

Increases in applicable tax rates, changes in applicable tax laws or disagreements with tax authorities can adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

The Company will have no material assets other than its interest in Holdings, which holds, directly or indirectly, all of the operating assets of Holdings’ business. Holdings generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Company is a U.S. corporation that will be subject to U.S. corporate income tax on its worldwide operations, including its share of income of Holdings. The Company and Holdings will also be subject to various U.S. federal, state and local taxes, in addition to taxes in other countries.

New U.S. laws and policy relating to taxes may have an adverse effect on the Company and Holding’s business and future profitability. Further, existing U.S. tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances could be interpreted, changed, modified or applied adversely to the Company and Holdings. Increases in income tax rates or other changes in income tax laws in any particular jurisdiction in which Holdings operates or is otherwise subject to tax can reduce the Company’s after-tax income from such jurisdiction and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Existing tax laws have been and could in the future be subject to significant change.

The Company and Holdings will be subject to reviews, examinations and audits by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and other taxing authorities with respect to income and non-income-based taxes. Economic and political pressures to increase tax revenues in jurisdictions in which Holdings operates, or the adoption of new or reformed tax legislation or regulation, may make resolving tax disputes more difficult and the final resolution of tax audits and any related litigation can differ from Holdings’ historical provisions and accruals, resulting in an adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Additional Risks Relating to Ownership of Company Securities

An active market for Global Gas’ securities may not be maintained, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of Global Gas’ securities.

The price of Global Gas’ securities may vary significantly due to factors specific to Global Gas as well as to general market or economic conditions. Furthermore, an active trading market for Global Gas’ securities may not be maintained. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be maintained.

Global Gas qualifies as an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), and it takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies, which may make Global Gas common stock less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare Global Gas’ performance to the performance of other public companies.

Global Gas is, an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). For as long as it continues to be an emerging growth company, Global Gas may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to “emerging growth companies,” including:

•        the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

•        the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements and

•        reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements.

As a result, stockholders may not have access to certain information that they may deem important. Global Gas’ status as an emerging growth company will end upon the earliest of:

•        the last day of the fiscal year in which Global Gas has at least $1.235 billion in annual revenue, as indexed for inflation by the SEC;

•        the first day of the fiscal year in which Global Gas qualifies as a “large accelerated filer,” with at least $700.0 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates as of the last business day of Global Gas’ last completed second fiscal quarter;

•        the date on which Global Gas has issued, in any three-year period, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or

•        the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of Dune’s IPO.

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. Global Gas may elect to take advantage of this extended transition period and as a result, its financial statements may not be comparable with similarly situated public companies.

Global Gas cannot predict if investors will find Global Gas Common Stock less attractive if it chooses to rely on any of the exemptions afforded emerging growth companies. If some investors find Global Gas Common Stock less attractive because Global Gas relies on any of these exemptions, there may be a less active trading market for Global Gas Common Stock and the market price of Global Gas Common Stock may be more volatile and may decline.

If Global Gas fails to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, Global Gas’ ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired, which may adversely affect investor confidence in Global Gas and, as a result, the market price of Global Gas Common Stock.

As a public company, Global Gas is required to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including, among other things, that Global Gas maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. The standards required for a public company under Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are significantly more stringent than those required of Global Hydrogen as a privately held company. The Company continues to develop and refine its disclosure controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information Global Gas is required to disclose in the reports that Global Gas will file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed in reports under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to Global Gas’ management, including Global Gas’ principal executive and financial officers.

The Company must continue to improve its internal control over financial reporting. Global Gas is required to make a formal assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and once Global Gas ceases to be an emerging growth company, Global Gas is required to include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by Global Gas’ independent registered public accounting firm. To achieve compliance with these requirements within the prescribed time period, Global Gas will be engaging in a process to document and evaluate Global Gas’ internal control over financial reporting, which is both costly and challenging. In this regard, Global Gas will need to continue to dedicate internal resources, potentially engage outside consultants and adopt a detailed work plan to assess and document the adequacy of Global Gas’ internal control over financial reporting, validate through testing that controls are functioning as documented and implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting. There is a risk that Global Gas will not be able to conclude, within the prescribed time period or at all, that Global Gas’ internal control over financial reporting is effective as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, Global Gas’ testing, or the subsequent testing by Global Gas’ independent registered public accounting firm, may reveal additional deficiencies in Global Gas’ internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses.

Any failure to implement and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, including the identification of one or more material weaknesses, could cause investors to lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of Global Gas’ financial statements and reports, which would likely adversely affect the market price of Global Gas Common Stock. In addition, Global Gas could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC and other regulatory authorities.

The market price of Global Gas’ securities may fluctuate.

The trading price of our securities could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors including those discussed in this “Risk Factors” section. Many of such factors are beyond Global Gas’ control. In such circumstances, the trading price of Global Gas’ securities may not recover and may experience a further decline.

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of Global Gas’ securities irrespective of Global Gas’ operating performance. The stock markets in general, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks and of Global Gas’ securities may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to Global Gas could depress Global Gas’ share price regardless of Global Gas’ business, prospects, financial conditions, or results of operations. A decline in the market price of Global Gas’ securities also could adversely affect Global Gas’ ability to issue additional securities and Global Gas’ ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

Insiders continue to have substantial influence over Global Gas, which could limit your ability to affect the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.

Global Gas’ executive officers, directors and their affiliates beneficially own approximately 86.0% of Global Gas Common Stock outstanding, representing approximately 86.0% of the voting power thereof.

As a result, these stockholders, if they act together, will be able to influence Global Gas’ management and affairs and all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendments of Global Gas’ organizational documents, and approval of significant corporate transactions. They may also have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, preventing, or deterring a change in control of Global Gas and might affect the market price of Global Gas Common Stock. In addition, Dune Acquisition Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) has the right under the Nomination Agreement (as defined below) to nominate two directors to Global Gas’ Board. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of Global Gas or changes in its management and will make the approval of certain transactions difficult or impossible without the support of these stockholders and their votes.

If securities or industry analysts either do not publish research about Global Gas or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about Global Gas, Global Gas’ business or Global Gas’ market, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding Global Gas Common Stock, the trading price or trading volume of Global Gas Common Stock could decline.

The trading market for Global Gas Common Stock will be influenced in part by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, Global Gas’ business, Global Gas’ market, or Global Gas’ competitors. If one or more securities analysts initiate research with an unfavorable rating or downgrade Global Gas Common Stock, provide a more favorable recommendation about Global Gas’ competitors or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about Global Gas’ business, Global Gas Common Stock price would likely decline. If few securities analysts commence coverage of us, or if one or more of these analysts cease coverage of Global Gas, or fail to publish reports on Global Gas regularly, Global Gas could lose visibility in the financial markets and demand for Global Gas’ securities could decrease, which in turn could cause the price and trading volume of Global Gas Common Stock to decline.

A significant portion of Global Gas’ total outstanding shares is restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future, which could cause the market price of Global Gas Common Stock to decline significantly, even if Global Gas’ business is doing well.

The market price of Global Gas Common Stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock in the market, or the perception that these sales could occur. Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Sellers received 4,300,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, of which 1,600,000 shares were subsequently forfeited in March 2024 leaving an aggregate of 2,700,000 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding, which is exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. At any time after the expiration of a lock-up to which such shares are subject, certain stockholders are entitled, under the Registration Rights Agreement, to certain rights with respect to the registration of the offer and sale of those shares under the Securities Act, including requesting Global Gas file a registration statement to register the offer and sale of their shares. Global Gas is also obligated to register certain shares of Global Gas Common Stock purchased by the Meteora Entities pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement and Subscription Agreement.

In addition, Global Gas intends to file a registration statement to register shares reserved for future issuance under Global Gas’ equity compensation plans. Upon effectiveness of that registration statement, subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting restrictions and the expiration or waiver of the market standoff agreements and lock-up agreements referred to above, the shares issued upon exercise of outstanding stock options, restricted stock unit awards, and warrants or the vesting of other equity awards granted under such plans will be available for immediate resale in the public market.

Sales of Global Gas Common Stock as restrictions end or pursuant to registration rights may make it more difficult for Global Gas to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that Global Gas deems appropriate. These sales also could cause the trading price of Global Gas Common Stock to fall and make it more difficult for you to sell shares of Global Gas Common Stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate.

If the price of our Class A Common Stock remains below the exercise price of the Warrants, warrant holders will be unlikely to exercise their Warrants for cash, resulting in little or no cash proceeds to us from such exercises.

Our Warrants are exercisable at $11.50 per share. On April 11, 2024, The closing price of our Class A Common Stock was $1.84. Currently, the exercise prices of the Warrants are greater than the current market price of our Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, such Warrants are unlikely to be exercised and therefore the Company does not expect to receive any proceeds from such exercise of the Warrants in the near term. Whether any holders of Warrants determine to exercise such Warrants, which would result in cash proceeds to the Company, will likely depend upon the market price of our Class A Common Stock at the time of any such holder’s determination.

We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes. In order to fund planned operations while meeting obligations as they come due, we will need to secure additional debt or equity financing if substantial cash proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants are not received. Furthermore, to the extent that warrants are exercised on a “cashless basis,” the amount of cash we would receive from the exercise of the warrants will decrease. There is no guarantee that the Warrants will ever be in the money prior to their expiration, and as such, the Warrants may expire worthless.

Although the currently outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock that are being registered for resale in this prospectus do not represent a substantial percentage of our outstanding Class A Common Stock, such shares do represent a significant portion of our public float, and the sale of such securities could cause the market price of our Class A Common Stock to decline significantly.

The Class A Common Stock being registered for resale was issued to, purchased or will be purchased by the Selling Securityholders for the following consideration: (i) a purchase price of approximately $0.006 per share of Class A Common Stock for the 4,312,500 shares held by the Sponsor, (ii) for the Subscription Agreement, the 681,220 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued to the Meteora Entities as consideration for entering into a forward purchase agreement, (iii) the 2,700,000 shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued upon exchange of shares of Class B Common Stock and Holdings Common Units, which were issued as consideration to the Sellers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and after giving effect to the Forfeitures, (iv) a purchase price of $1.00 per share was paid for a share of Private Placement Warrant for the 4,850,000 Private Placement Warrants issued to the Selling Securityholders. The shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Warrants will be purchased, if at all, by such holders at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

Due to the significant number of shares of our Class A Common Stock that were redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, the number of Class A Common Stock that the Selling Securityholders can sell into the public markets pursuant to this prospectus represents a significant amount of our public float. Given the substantial number of shares of Class A Common Stock registered for potential resale pursuant to this prospectus, the sale of Class A Common Stock by the Selling Securityholders, or the perception in the market that the Selling Securityholders of a large number of shares of Class A Common Stock intend to sell the Class A Common Stock, could increase the volatility of the market price of our Class A Common Stock or result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our Class A Common Stock.

In addition, even though the current market price of our Class A Common Stock is significantly below the price at the time of Dune’s IPO, certain Selling Securityholders have an incentive to sell because they have purchased their Class A Common Stock at prices significantly lower than the public investors or the current trading price of the Class A Common Stock, and they may profit significantly so even under circumstances in which our public stockholders or certain other Selling Securityholders would experience losses in connection with their investment. In particular, the Sponsor may experience a positive rate of return on the securities they purchased due to the differences between the purchase prices and the current market price. For example, based on the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on April 11, 2024, (i) the Sponsor may experience a potential profit of up to approximately $1.834 per share. As such, public stockholders of Class A Common Stock have likely paid significantly more than certain of the Selling Securityholders for their Class A Common Stock and would not expect to see a positive return unless the price of the Class A Common Stock appreciates above the price at which such stockholders purchased their Class A Common Stock. Investors who purchase Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq following the Business Combination are unlikely to experience a similar rate of return on the Class A Common Stock they purchase due to differences in the purchase prices and the current trading price referenced above. Based on the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on April 11, 2024 and their respective purchase prices, certain of the Selling Stockholders may receive potential profits ranging from $1.834 per share to up to $1.840 per share. In addition, sales by the Selling Securityholders may cause the trading prices of our securities to experience a decline. As a result, the Selling Securityholders may effect sales of Class A Common Stock at prices significantly below the current market price, which could cause market prices to decline further.

Because there are no current plans to pay cash dividends on Global Gas Common Stock for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your Global Gas Common Stock at a price greater than what you paid for it.

Global Gas intends to retain future earnings, if any, for future operations, expansion, and debt repayment and there are no current plans to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. The declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends on shares of Global Gas common stock will be at the sole discretion of Global Gas’ Board. Global Gas’ Board may take into account general and economic conditions, Global Gas’ financial condition and results of operations, Global Gas’ available cash and current and anticipated cash needs, capital requirements, contractual, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, implications of the payment of dividends by Global Gas to its

stockholders or by its subsidiaries to it, and such other factors as Global Gas’ Board may deem relevant. As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in Global Gas Common Stock unless you sell your Global Gas Common Stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

Global Gas stockholders may experience dilution in the future.

The percentage of shares of Global Gas Common Stock owned by current stockholders may be diluted in the future because of equity issuances for acquisitions, capital market transactions, or otherwise, including, without limitation, equity awards that Global Gas may grant to its directors, officers, and employees, exercise of Global Gas warrants.

The Amended and Restated Charter provides, subject to limited exceptions, that the Court of Chancery is the sole and exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation matters, which could limit Global Gas’ stockholders’ ability to obtain a chosen judicial forum for disputes with Global Gas or its directors, officers, employees or stockholders.

The Amended and Restated Charter requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in Global Gas’ name, actions against directors, officers and employees for breach of fiduciary duty, actions asserting an “internal corporate claim,” as defined in Section 115 of the DGCL, and other similar actions may be brought in the Court of Chancery or, if that court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, another federal or state court situated in the State of Delaware. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of Global Gas’ capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the forum provisions in the Amended and Restated Charter. In addition, the Amended and Restated Charter and Amended and Restated Bylaws of Global Gas (the “Global Gas Bylaws”) provides that the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. While the exclusive forum provision does not restrict the ability of stockholders to bring claims under the Securities Act, it may limit stockholders’ ability to bring a claim in the judicial forum that they find favorable and may increase certain litigation costs on the stockholders, which may discourage the filing of claims under the Securities Act against Global Gas, its directors and officers.

In March 2020, the Delaware Supreme Court issued a decision in Salzburg et al. v. Sciabacucchi, which found that an exclusive forum provision providing for claims under the Securities Act to be brought in federal court is facially valid under Delaware law. It is unclear whether this decision will be appealed, or what the final outcome of this case will be. Global Gas intends to enforce this provision, but it does not know whether courts in other jurisdictions will agree with this decision or enforce it.

This choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with Global Gas or any of its directors, officers, other employees or stockholders, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in the Amended and Restated Charter to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, Global Gas may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm its business, operating results and financial condition.

Additionally, it is uncertain whether this choice of forum provision is enforceable. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. In light of this uncertainty, investors bringing a claim may face certain additional risks, including increased costs and uncertainty of litigation outcomes.

Anti-takeover provisions in Global Gas’ organizational documents could delay or prevent a change of control.

Certain provisions of the Amended and Restated Charter and the Global Gas Bylaws may have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, defer or prevent a merger, acquisition, tender offer, takeover attempt or other change of control transaction that a stockholder might consider in its best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by Global Gas’ stockholders.

These provisions provide for, among other things:

•        the ability of Global Gas’ board of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock;

•        a classified board;

•        advance notice for nominations of directors by stockholders and for stockholders to include matters to be considered at Global Gas’ annual meetings;

•        certain limitations on convening special stockholder meetings;

•        limiting the persons who may call special meetings of stockholders;

•        limiting the ability of stockholders to act by written consent; and

•        Global Gas’ board of directors have the express authority to make, alter or repeal the Global Gas Bylaws.

These anti-takeover provisions could make it more difficult or frustrate or prevent a third party from acquiring Global Gas, even if the third party’s offer may be considered beneficial by many of Global Gas’ stockholders. Additionally, the provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by Global Gas stockholders to replace or remove its current management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace members of Global Gas’ board of directors, which is responsible for appointing the members of its management. As a result, Global Gas’ stockholders may be limited in their ability to obtain a premium for their shares. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other stockholders to elect directors of your choosing and to cause Global Gas to take other corporate actions you desire. See “Description of Global Gas Securities”.

Claims for indemnification by Global Gas’ directors and officers may reduce Global Gas’ available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against Global Gas and may reduce the amount of money available to Global Gas.

Global Gas’ organizational documents will provide that Global Gas will indemnify its directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

In addition, as permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, the Global Gas Bylaws and its indemnification agreements that it entered into with its directors and officers provide that:

•        Global Gas will indemnify its directors and officers for serving Global Gas in those capacities or for serving other business enterprises at its request, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation may indemnify such person if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful;

•        Global Gas may, in its discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where indemnification is permitted by applicable law;

•        Global Gas is required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its directors and officers in connection with defending a proceeding, except that such directors or officers shall undertake to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification;

•        Global Gas is not obligated pursuant to the Global Gas Bylaws to indemnify a person with respect to proceedings initiated by that person against Global Gas or its other indemnitees, except with respect to proceedings authorized by its board of directors or brought to enforce a right to indemnification;

•        the rights conferred in the amended and restated bylaws are not exclusive, and Global Gas is authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers, employees and agents and to obtain insurance to indemnify such persons; and

•        Global Gas may not retroactively amend its bylaw provisions to reduce its indemnification obligations to directors, officers, employees and agents.

We may incur debt in the future, and our ability to satisfy our obligations thereunder remains subject to a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control.

We may seek to incur debt in the future in order to fund our exploration and operational programs, which would reduce our financial flexibility and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operation.

Should we incur debt, our ability to satisfy any resulting debt obligations and to reduce our level of indebtedness will depend on future performance. General economic conditions, mineral prices, and financial, business and other factors will have an impact on our operations and future performance, and many of these factors are beyond our control. As such, we cannot assure investors that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow to pay the interest on any debt, or that future working capital, borrowings, or equity financing will be available to pay or refinance such debt or meet future debt covenants. Factors that will affect our ability to raise cash through an offering of securities or a refinancing of any debt include financial market conditions, the value of our assets, and our performance at the time we are seeking to raise capital. We cannot assure investors that we will have sufficient funds to make such payments. If we do not have sufficient funds and are otherwise unable to negotiate renewals of our current borrowings or to arrange for new financing, we might be required to take measures to generate liquidity, such as selling some or all of our assets. Any such sales could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial results. Moreover, failure to obtain additional financing, if required, on a timely basis, could cause us to reduce or delay our proposed operations.

We may need to raise additional capital in order to complete our programs and commence commercial operations and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be available to us on advantageous terms.

Nasdaq may delist Global Gas’ securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in Global Gas’ securities and subject Global Gas to additional trading restrictions.

Global Gas’ securities are listed on Nasdaq. However, Global Gas cannot assure you that its securities will continue to be listed on Nasdaq. In order to continue listing its securities on Nasdaq, Global Gas must maintain certain financial, distribution and stock price levels. Generally, Global Gas must maintain a minimum amount of stockholders’ equity (generally $4.0 million) and a minimum number of holders of its securities (generally 300 unrestricted, round-lot holders).

On December 22, 2023, we received a notice (the “Notice”) from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that, unless the we timely request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the our securities (common stock and warrants) would be subject to suspension and delisting from Nasdaq on January 3, 2024, due to failure to satisfy the initial listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market upon closing of the Business Combination in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 5101-2. Specifically, we have not demonstrated compliance with the Stockholders Equity, Publicly Held Shares, Market Value of Listed Securities and Market Value of Publicly Held Shares requirements set forth in Nasdaq Rule 5505. We timely requested a hearing before the Panel, which hearing was held on March 19, 2024 and resulted in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the outcome of the hearing.

If Nasdaq delists any of our securities from trading on its exchange and we are not able to list such securities on another approved national securities exchange, we expect that such securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including: (i) a limited availability of market quotations for our securities, (ii) reduced liquidity for our securities, (iii) a determination that our public shares are “penny stocks” which will require brokers trading in our public shares to adhere to more stringent rules, including being subject to the depository requirements of Rule 419 of the Securities Act, and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities, (iv) a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future, and (v) a less attractive acquisition vehicle to a target business in connection with an initial business combination. The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Global Gas’ public shares, units and warrants qualify as covered securities under such statute. If we were no longer listed on Nasdaq, our securities would not qualify as covered securities under such statute and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities.

If Nasdaq delists Global Gas’ securities from trading on its exchange and Global Gas is not able to list its securities on another national securities exchange, Global Gas expects its securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, Global Gas could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

•        a limited availability of market quotations for its securities;

•        reduced liquidity for its securities;

•        a determination that Global Gas Common Stock constitutes a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in Global Gas Common Stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for Global Gas’ securities;

•        a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

•        a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

Although Global Gas will not be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq rules, Global Gas might become a “controlled company” in the future, and, as a result, Global Gas stockholders may not have certain corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.

If more than 50% of the voting power for the election of Global Gas’ directors is held by an individual, a group or another company, Global Gas will become a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards. The Sponsor and William Bennett Nance, Jr. hold approximately 86.0% of the combined voting power of Global Gas immediately following the Closing and after giving effect to the Forfeitures. The Sponsor and William Bennett Nance, Jr. have no agreement or arrangement to act together with respect to voting of the Global Gas common stock, and thus they have not formed a “group” for purposes of controlled company status. Although no individual, group or other company will have more than 50% of the voting power of Global Gas, the Sponsor and William Bennett Nance, Jr. may in the future decide to act as a group, and this concentration of voting power would cause Global Gas to become a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards.

As a result, if Global Gas becomes a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards, then Global Gas will not be subject to certain requirements that would otherwise require it to have, among other things: (i) a majority of its board of directors consist of “independent directors” as defined under the rules of the Nasdaq; (ii) a compensation committee that is composed entirely of directors who meet the Nasdaq independence standards for compensation committee members; and (iii) director nominations made, or recommended to the full board of directors, by its independent directors or by a nominations committee that consists entirely of independent directors.

The business strategies and management’s expectations may not prove to be reflective of actual future results.

This prospectus contains the business strategy and management’s expectations of Global Gas. Accordingly, such projections and forecasts should not be viewed as public guidance. These strategies and expectations are based on numerous variables and assumptions which are inherently uncertain and may be beyond the control of Global Gas and exclude, among other things, transaction-related expenses. Important factors that may affect actual results and results of Global Gas’ operations following the Business Combination, or could lead to such strategies and expectations not being achieved include, but are not limited to: customer demand for Global Gas’ products; an evolving competitive landscape; rapid technological change; margin shifts in the industry; regulatory changes; successful management and retention of key personnel; unexpected expenses; and general economic conditions. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the strategies and expectations of Global Gas, as such strategies and expectations may be materially different than actual results.

Global Gas will incur significant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition and operating results.

Global Gas will face increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that Global Hydrogen did not incur as a private company and these expenses may increase even more after Global Gas is no longer an “emerging growth company.” The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including the requirements of Section 404, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and the securities exchanges and the listing standards of Nasdaq, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. Compliance with public company requirements will increase costs and make certain activities more time consuming and could require the management team of Global Gas to devote significant time and resources to such compliance. A number of those requirements require Global Gas to carry out activities Global Gas has not done previously. For example, Global Gas created new board committees, entered into new insurance policies and adopted new internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. In addition, expenses associated with SEC reporting requirements will be incurred. Global Gas may be required to expand its staff to ensure that its workforce has the requisite experience to implement these changes.

Furthermore, if any issues in complying with those requirements are identified (for example, if management or Global Gas’ independent registered public accounting firm identifies a material weakness or significant deficiency in the internal control over financial reporting), Global Gas could incur additional costs rectifying those issues, the existence of those issues could adversely affect Global Gas’ reputation or investor perceptions of it and it may be more expensive to obtain director and officer liability insurance. Risks associated with Global Gas’ status as a public company may make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on the Global Gas Board or as executive officers.

In addition, as a public company, Global Gas may be subject to stockholder activism, which can lead to substantial costs, distract management and impact the manner in which Global Gas operates its business in ways Global Gas does not currently anticipate. As a result of disclosure of information in this prospectus and in filings required of a public company, Global Gas’ business and financial condition will become more visible, which may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, Global Gas’ business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in Global Gas’ favor, these claims and the time and resources necessary to resolve them could divert the resources of Global Gas’ management and adversely affect its business and results of operations. The additional reporting and other obligations imposed by these rules and regulations will increase legal and financial compliance costs and the costs of related legal, accounting and administrative activities. These increased costs will require Global Gas to divert a significant amount of money that could otherwise be used to expand the business and achieve strategic objectives. Advocacy efforts by stockholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase costs.

Our warrant agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us and Global Gas.

Our warrant agreement provides that, subject to applicable law, (i) any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement, including under the Securities Act, will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and (ii) that we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. We will waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock or Warrants by the Selling Securityholders. We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $155.0 million from the exercise of the Warrants, assuming the exercise in full of all of the Warrants for cash. We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes. As the exercise prices of the Warrants are greater than the current market price of our Class A Common Stock, such Warrants are unlikely to be exercised and therefore we do not expect to receive any proceeds from such exercise of the Warrants in the near term. Any cash proceeds associated with the exercise of the Warrants are dependent on the stock price.

The Selling Securityholders will pay any underwriting fees, discounts and selling commissions incurred by such Selling Securityholders in disposing of their Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into by the Company and certain other stockholders of the Company, the Company will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the Class A Common Stock covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, Nasdaq listing fees and fees and expenses of counsel and independent registered public accountants.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The offering price of the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Warrants offered hereby is determined by reference to the exercise price of the Warrants of $11.50 per share. The Public Warrants are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “HGASW.”

We cannot currently determine the price or prices at which shares of our Class A Common Stock may be sold by the Selling Securityholders under this prospectus.

In addition, the Company’s ability to pay dividends may be limited by covenants of any existing and future outstanding indebtedness the Company or its subsidiaries incur. The Company does not anticipate declaring any cash dividends to holders of the Class A Common Stock or the Warrants in the foreseeable future.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Incentive Plan

At the special meeting of Dune’s stockholders concluded on December 4, 2023, the stockholders of the Company considered and approved the Global Gas Corporation 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”).

Defined terms included herein shall have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Business Overview

Global Hydrogen is a nascent pure-play hydrogen and carbon recovery project developer and industrial gas supplier that has commenced initial operations and is building a growing project development pipeline. Potential projects are added to the project development pipeline only after Global Hydrogen has met with the potential customer, discussed the scope of the project and discussed the project’s feasibility, preliminary sizing and design. Since its inception, Global Hydrogen has worked to establish relationships in the form of channel checks with non-exclusive independent equipment suppliers and discussions with vendors, but the Company has not yet generated any revenue or reached final terms with any paying customers or suppliers. As we expand our operations, we intend to offer potential customers reliable, low-carbon and clean hydrogen, pure carbon dioxide, and other gases generated from a variety of feedstocks. We intend for our operations to include (i) the sourcing, identification, evaluation and vetting of offtake customers seeking to purchase industrial gases, (ii) the securing of local feedstocks, equipment, and utilities, (iii) the planning and management of projects and (iv) the structuring and financing of our projects. We intend to offer our customers attractive pricing as we select and secure local, often waste, feedstock, and plan to deploy established industrial gas generation, storage, compression, and dispensing technologies in our projects. On each planned project, we seek to sell multiple gas products, sourced from a single feedstock, for offtake to customers. We also intend to utilize and bring to market secondary offtake products such as oxygen. The Company was founded in 2023 by a team with over a decade of hydrogen experience and several decades of business development, mergers & acquisitions, and capital markets experience. Global Hydrogen is currently a minority-owned business and we are targeting both privately- and publicly-funded hydrogen development and selected carbon recovery projects, including projects supported by local, county, state, and national-level governments in North America, Western Europe, and Great Britain.

In selecting feedstock to generate industrial gases, we will primarily target renewable waste and will need to seek arrangements with owners of renewable waste feedstock, such as wastewater treatment plants, landfills, food waste processing facilities, and agricultural farms, to access their renewable waste feedstock. In addition to generating industrial gases from renewable waste feedstock, we plan to generate gases from non-renewable sources including pipeline natural gas. We will need to seek arrangement with owners of such non-renewable feedstock. On projects where a non-renewable, or high greenhouse gas output, energy source is used, as well as on selected other projects where such technology is required to produce clean hydrogen, we may deploy carbon recovery technology — more commonly known as carbon capture technology.

On the hydrogen side, we serve traditional industrial gas customers, and are particularly focused on plans to serve the rapidly growing hydrogen-as-energy-carrier market, comprising heavy duty hauling transportation operators such as transit bus agencies, long haul truck fleet operators, truck leasing operators, and refuse collection truck operators, many of whom are considering deploying hydrogen fuel cell powertrain vehicles to decarbonize their fleets which currently runs almost exclusively on diesel. On the carbon dioxide side, we target both traditional industrial users of the gas, including food & beverage grade users such as brewers and beverage bottlers requiring carbonation, as well as emerging users such as the producers of green building materials.

Our growth strategy is based on developing our ability to place modular generation, recovery, storage, and dispensing solutions in closer geographic proximity to our end customers — onsite in many cases — and our ability to produce and sell multiple outputs from a single feedstock input. We hope that these plans, if successfully carried out, will allow us to produce clean hydrogen and carbon dioxide at a net cost normally seen only in larger scale plants and which supports competitive market prices for our end products. Additionally, governments at all levels in North America and Western Europe have and are deploying substantial incentives to mitigate the impact of climate change and to decarbonize their economies. We believe we are well-placed to benefit as a developer of projects eligible for several of these incentives, such as the hydrogen tax production credits and the investment tax credits made available in the United States through the recently enacted Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

Global Hydrogen has not yet generated any revenue and anticipates generating revenue from the sale of systems and equipment to customers in 2023 or 2024. Global Hydrogen management actively reviews its project development pipeline and activity with potential customers. Potential projects are added to the project development pipeline only after Global Gas has met with the potential customer, discussed the scope of the project and discussed the project’s feasibility, preliminary sizing and design. Management has determined that its projections are reasonable based on its review and status of its potential projects. Global Hydrogen has not yet successfully closed on any project, and recently Global Hydrogen’s projections were revised to reflect the loss of an originally-forecast systems and equipment project which was expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.

Global Hydrogen was organized as a Delaware limited liability company in February 2023. Global Hydrogen is headquartered in New York, New York and its corporate website is www.globalgas.co. Global Hydrogen’s website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, such website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this proxy statement.

While Global Hydrogen does not have significant past operating history, Global Hydrogen’s management is aware that the future operating results and future financial condition of Global Hydrogen may be different than our past operating results and financial condition. Major factors that will have a material impact on future financial results and condition include whether Global Hydrogen will be able to sign contracts with customers and suppliers necessary to undertake the business plan. Even if such contracts are signed, our business plan is complex and there are many factors which could impact our operating results and financial condition including delays in projects, volatility in the price of our raw materials and products, and volatility in the demand for our services and products. For more information please see the section entitled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Global Hydrogen.”

Recent Developments

Recent events impacting our business are as follows:

Business Combination:    On May 15, 2023, Global Hydrogen announced that it had entered into an agreement and Business Combination with Dune Acquisition Corporation, a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company and certain of its subsidiaries.

On December 21, 2023, the Business Combination was consummated. In connection with the closing of such Business Combination, the Company changed its name to Global Gas Corporation, and on December 22, 2023, the Company’s Class A Common Stock and warrants began trading on Nasdaq under the new trading symbols of “HGAS” and “HGASW,” respectively.

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the other transactions contemplated thereby, at the closing of the Business Combination on December 21, 2023, (a) Dune contributed to Holdings all of its assets (excluding its interests in Holdings and the aggregate amount of cash proceeds required to satisfy the Stockholder Redemptions), and in exchange therefore, Holdings issued to Dune a number of Holdings Common Units which equal the number of total shares of Class A Common Stock, of Dune issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing (giving effect to all Stockholder Redemptions) and (b) immediately after the SPAC Contribution, the Sellers transferred, conveyed, assigned and delivered all of the Global Hydrogen Units to Holdings in exchange for shares of Class B Common Stock, of Dune and Holdings Common Units, as a result of which, (i) each issued and outstanding Global Hydrogen Unit immediately prior to

the Combination Transactions is now held by Holdings, (ii) each Seller received an aggregate number of Holdings Common Units and shares of Class B Common Stock, in each case, equal to the number of Global Hydrogen Units held by such Seller, multiplied by the applicable exchange ratio, and (iii) Dune changed its name to Global Gas Corporation and the Company became the publicly traded reporting company. The effective time of the Business Combination on the Closing Date is referred to as the “Effective Time.”

The Business Combination was accomplished through what is commonly referred to as an “Up-C” structure, which is often used by partnerships and limited liability companies undertaking an initial public offering. The “Up-C” structure allowed the Sellers, who became equity holders of Holdings upon the consummation of the Combination Transactions, to retain their equity ownership in Holdings, an entity that is classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, in the form of Holdings Common Units after the Closing, and provides potential future tax benefits for both the Company and Holdings’ equity holders (other than the Company) after the Closing when they ultimately exchange their Holdings Common Units.

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, at the Closing, the issued and outstanding Global Hydrogen Units of each Seller were transferred, conveyed, assigned and delivered in exchange for (i) a number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the number of Global Hydrogen Units held by such Seller and (y) the exchange ratio determined by dividing (A) the quotient of $43,000,000 divided by the number of Global Hydrogen Units issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing by (B) $10.00 per share and (ii) a number of Holdings Common Units equal to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock received by such Seller pursuant to clause (i) hereof.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although Dune acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Global Hydrogen in the Business Combination, Dune was treated as the “acquired” company and Global Hydrogen was treated as the accounting acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Global Hydrogen issuing stock for the net assets of Dune, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Dune were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination were those of Global Hydrogen.

In connection with the Business Combination, on December 1, 2023, Dune and Global Hydrogen entered into the Forward Purchase Agreement the “Meteora Entities for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction. In connection with the Forward Purchase Agreement, Dune entered into a Subscription Agreement with the Meteora Entities. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Meteora Entities agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and Dune agreed to issue and sell to the Meteora Entities, on the Closing Date, 681,220 PIPE Shares. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company gave certain registration rights to the Meteora Entities with respect to the PIPE Shares. The sale of the PIPE Shares was consummated concurrently with the Closing.

On February 8, 2024, Global Gas and the Meteora Entities entered into an amendment to the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment”) which provides that Global Gas has the option, at its sole discretion, at any time up to 45 days prior to the valuation date, to request up to $5 million in Prepayment Shortfall (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment) via twenty separate written requests to the Meteora Entities in the amount of $250,000 each (each, an “Additional Shortfall Request”), provided that at the time of any Additional Shortfall Request (i) the Meteora Entities has recovered 110% of the prior Additional Shortfall Request, if any, via Shortfall Sales and (ii) the VWAP Price over the five trading days prior to such Additional Shortfall Request multiplied by the then current Number of Shares less Shortfall Sale Shares held by Seller is at least 2.625 times greater than such Additional Shortfall Request (in each case, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment). In addition, the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment amends the section of the Forward Purchase Agreement regarding Prepayment Shortfall Consideration by eliminating the 180-day period following a Trade Date before Seller may commence selling Recycled Shares and by permitting such sales without payment by Seller of any Early Termination Obligation until such time as the proceeds from such sales equal 110% (instead of 100% as originally provided in the Forward Purchase Agreement) of the Prepayment Shortfall. Finally, the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment amends the section of the Forward Purchase Agreement regarding Share Consideration by amending the holding period to equal the earlier of (i) Seller recovering 110% of the first Additional Shortfall Request and (ii) the three-month anniversary of the Business Combination (each term as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) (instead of just a three-month holding period).

On March 4, 2024, Global Hydrogen entered into the “Employment Agreement Amendment with William Bennet Nance, Jr. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement Amendment, Mr. Nance’s compensation was restructured to entitle him to contingent payments equal to 15% of the Gross Profit of the Company, determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, up to a maximum amount of $250,000 on an annualized basis, less applicable taxes and withholdings, in lieu of the base salary he had previously been entitled to. The Employment Agreement Amendment also made conforming changes to Mr. Nance’s employment agreement, such that (i) the change in his compensation structure effected by the Employment Agreement Amendment shall not constitute “good reason” for Mr. Nance to terminate his employment with Global Hydrogen, other subsidiaries of the Company or the Company itself, and (ii) if Mr. Nance’s employment is terminated by him for good reason, or by the Company without cause (and not due to death or disability), Mr. Nance shall be entitled to consideration updated to include any earned but unpaid Gross Profit Payments through the date of termination. The Employment Agreement Amendment also shortened the restricted period during which certain non-competition and non-solicitation provisions of Mr. Nance’s original employment agreement shall remain in effect.

On March 4, 2024, Global Gas and the Sellers entered into Forfeiture Agreements with each of Sergio Martinez, Barbara Guay Martinez and William Bennett Nance, Jr., pursuant to which Sergio Martinez and Barbara Guay Martinez each forfeited 80,000 shares of Class B Common Stock and William Bennett Nance, Jr. forfeited 1,400,000 shares of Class B Common Stock. After the Forfeitures, the Sellers continue to hold an aggregate of 2,700,000 shares of Class B Common Stock.

Results of Operations

As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not generated any revenue. As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s expenses have been related to initial operations and efforts to source materials for future projects and to undertake conversations with potential customers.

The following table summarizes our financial results for the period from February 16, 2023 (inception) to December 31, 2023 (in dollars):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from contributions from founders. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had an aggregate cash balance of $62,362 and a net working capital deficit of $303,470.

The Company intends to operate with its current cash on hand. In the future, the Company may borrow money and sell equity to finance its operations. As the Company has a limited operating history, its liquidity and capital resources may change substantially from past results.

The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company will need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company intends to raise such capital through issuances of additional equity raises. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

As a result of the above, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) ASC Subtopic 205-40, “Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

BUSINESS

Overview

Global Gas is a nascent pure-play hydrogen and carbon recovery project developer and industrial gas supplier that has commenced initial operations and is building a growing project development pipeline. Since its inception, Global Gas has worked to establish relationships in the form of channel checks with non-exclusive independent equipment suppliers and discussions with vendors, but the Company has not yet generated any revenue or reached final terms with any paying customers or suppliers. As we expand our operations, we intend to offer potential customers reliable, low-carbon and clean hydrogen, pure carbon dioxide, and other gases generated from a variety of feedstocks. We intend for our operations to include (i) the sourcing, identification, evaluation and vetting of offtake customers seeking to purchase industrial gases, (ii) the securing of local feedstocks, equipment, and utilities, (iii) the planning and management of projects and (iv) the structuring and financing of our projects. We intend to offer our customers attractive pricing as we select and secure local, often waste, feedstock, and plan to deploy established industrial gas generation, storage, compression, and dispensing technologies in our projects. On each planned project, we seek to sell multiple gas products, sourced from a single feedstock, for offtake to customers. We also intend to utilize and bring to market secondary offtake products such as oxygen. The Company was founded in 2023 by a team with over a decade of hydrogen experience and several decades of business development, mergers & acquisitions, and capital markets experience. Global Gas targets both privately- and publicly-funded hydrogen development and selected carbon recovery projects, including projects supported by local, county, state and national-level governments in North America, Western Europe and Great Britain.

Global Gas is building a growing project development pipeline which includes more than 40 potential projects. Potential projects are added to the project development pipeline only after Global Gas has met with the potential customer, discussed the scope of the project and discussed the project’s feasibility, preliminary sizing and design.

To date, we do not have any customers and have not generated any revenue. In 2024, Global Gas plans to focus primarily on the sale of systems and equipment and anticipates generating revenue from such sales. Global Gas intends to generate revenue, including but not limited, through the purchase of equipment at wholesale prices, the leasing and resale of such equipment to customers along with services such as design, engineering, project management, plant installation, plant startup, and others which are to be provided to customers. In selling systems and equipment, Global Gas anticipates that potential customers will retain responsibility for applying for and receiving regulatory approvals, acquiring land for properties, and overseeing the commencement of civil works for hydrogen refueling station construction. Global Gas anticipates generating revenue upon the sale of systems and equipment, including but not limited to alkaline and proton exchange membrane electrolyzers, steam methane reforming plants, carbon recovery plants, hydrogen and natural gas compressors, pumps and storage tanks, heat exchangers, hydrogen dispensing systems, gas analyzers and flow meters, which will be purchased from wholesalers and provided to customers at market prices. The Company also intends to recognize revenue upon achieving certain milestones, including but not limited to signing of contracts, purchase of long-term lead time items, testing of plants and notification of readiness to dispatch plants. Additionally, the Company may also provide engineering, procurement, construction supervision (EPC), design, testing, installation, commissioning, plant startup, plant maintenance and operation, site selection, project economic analysis, and project management services to customers and support customers with supervisory services related to installation, commissioning, startup and operation of production facilities or other services as may be required by a customer’s project. Outside of software licenses, no licensing of intellectual property is expected to be necessary for the sale or use of equipment by customers. In connection with these services, the Company anticipates hiring additional personnel with relevant skills and experiences in order to support customers. In selecting feedstock to generate industrial gases, we will primarily target renewable waste and will need to seek arrangements with owners of renewable waste feedstock, such as wastewater treatment plants, landfills, food waste processing facilities, and agricultural farms, to access their renewable waste feedstock. In addition to generating industrial gases from renewable waste feedstock, we plan to generate gases from non-renewable sources including pipeline natural gas. We will need to seek arrangements with owners of such non-renewable feedstock. On projects where a non-renewable, or high greenhouse gas output, energy source is used, as well as on selected other projects where such technology is required to produce clean hydrogen, we may deploy carbon recovery technology — more commonly known as carbon capture technology. Renewable waste feedstock has an additional advantage in that its price may be less susceptible to market fluctuations as compared to other feedstocks such as natural gas.

On the hydrogen side, we intend to serve traditional industrial gas customers, and are particularly focused on plans to serve the rapidly growing hydrogen-as-energy-carrier market, comprising heavy duty hauling transportation operators such as transit bus agencies, long haul truck fleet operators, truck leasing operators and refuse collection truck operators, many of whom are considering deploying hydrogen fuel cell powertrain vehicles to decarbonize their fleets which currently runs almost exclusively on diesel. On the carbon dioxide side, we target both traditional industrial users of the gas, including food & beverage grade users such as brewers and beverage bottlers requiring carbonation, as well as emerging users such as the producers of green building materials.

Global Gas intends for its business model to generate revenue from the sale of equipment and systems and, in the long-term, from the sale of industrial gases from its owned plants. While Global Gas does not anticipate earning revenue in connection with its long-term business model in 2024, the Company has commenced discussions with potential hydrogen offtake customers about their hydrogen needs in connection to gas sales and Global Gas is exploring potential hydrogen feedstock sources and hydrogen production locations for these owned plants. To generate revenue from the Company’s long-term business model of owning plants and selling hydrogen and other gases, Global Gas will need to identify and contract with offtake customers. To streamline anticipated regulatory approvals for hydrogen production projects, the Company plans to target offtake partners who have already received or are in the process of receiving regulatory approvals for their specific plant sites. Additionally, the Company plans to identify production locations and project types where accelerated regulatory approval is possible. As an example, certain subdivisions of state and local governments have the ability to provide regulatory approvals and permits for projects to proceed, including the ability to issue building permits, fire marshal certifications, and air quality permits. In instances where the offtake partner does not have a permitted project site, Global Gas anticipates project permit approvals can be received in timeframes ranging from 6 months to several years, depending on the locality and regulatory body. Once permitting is received by the offtake partner or issued by the authority having jurisdiction, it is the belief and expectation of Global Gas’ management that Global Gas will be able to manufacture, commission, and startup our hydrogen plants in 6 to 9 months for Global Gas’ electrolyzer offerings and 12 to 18 months for SMR plants, depending on the size, quantity, and destination of the plant. Global Gas anticipates beginning to execute its long-term business model and generating revenue from such long-term business model in 2025. For owned plants, Global Gas does not anticipate significant exposure to fluctuations in the market for hydrogen due to the planned execution of long-term offtake agreements with its customers.

Our growth strategy is being able to place modular generation, recovery, storage and dispensing solutions in closer geographic proximity to our end customers — onsite in many cases — and our ability to produce and sell multiple outputs from a single feedstock input. We hope that these plans, if successfully carried out, will allow us to produce clean hydrogen and carbon dioxide at a net cost significantly below the $16 to $25 per kilogram currently offered at many retail hydrogen fueling stations, and which supports competitive market prices for our end products. Additionally, governments at all levels in North America and Western Europe have and are deploying substantial incentives to mitigate the impact of climate change and to decarbonize their economies. With our focus on proven, low-carbon hydrogen generation and carbon recovery technologies — such as electrolyzers — which produce no carbon dioxide if sourced from renewable energy sources — and steam methane reforming plants with co-located carbon recovery — we believe we are well-placed to benefit as a developer of projects eligible for several of these incentives, such as the hydrogen tax production credits and the investment tax credits made available in the United States through the recently enacted IR Act, which offers up to $3.00 per kilogram in incentive credits for 10 years, for clean hydrogen produced while generating less than 0.45 kilograms of carbon dioxide emission for every 1.0 kilogram of hydrogen produced.

Market Opportunity

Hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table, it has the lightest molecular weight and the highest specific heat capacity of any element. Burning hydrogen releases no carbon dioxide, and when used in a hydrogen fuel cell to produce electricity, the outputs are water and heat. These special characteristics, and others, make hydrogen a strong choice for industries with end use applications facing significant weight or heat considerations, such as heavy duty hauling, steel production, certain industrial chemical manufacturing, and aviation and shipping/maritime transport, which otherwise represent difficult-to-decarbonize sectors of the economy. Historically, hydrogen has been produced and used primarily for industrial purposes — notably as a chemical raw material for the production of ammonia and methanol, and in oil refining.

Global demand for pure hydrogen grew at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 3.6% from 1975 to 2022, according to the International Energy Agency.

•        In the above chart “Industry” relates to hydrogen used for industrial heating and as a feedstock for other industrial processes.

Methods of Hydrogen Production

As indicated in “The Landscape of Clean Hydrogen” by Carbon Solutions in association with the Industrial Innovation Initiative, Hydrogen can be produced in a number of ways by applying different forms of energy to a variety of raw materials known as feedstocks. The most mature and economic method of producing hydrogen is via SMR, which is catalytic steam reforming of natural gas. In SMR hydrogen generation, feedstock natural gas methane (CH4) is reacted with steam, and molecular hydrogen (H2) is separated from the carbon (C). Based on Global Gas’s analysis of IEA publications, Global Gas believes that without carbon capture, SMR hydrogen production is

considered to be a carbon-intensive method of production, as the separated carbon in the SMR process which reacts with oxygen (O2) is released into the atmosphere at an approximate ratio of 10:1 (10 kilograms of carbon dioxide (CO2) for every 1 kilogram of H2). With carbon capture, hydrogen can be produced via SMR at a ratio below 1:1.

•        The above chart reflects IEA analysis of the readiness level of certain hydrogen production technologies based upon information sourced from the U.S. Department of Energy. Technologies with higher numbers are more mature technologies, which have been demonstrated and are ready for large scale deployment. It is Global Gas’s opinion that alkaline and proton exchange membrane electrolyzers and steam methane reforming plants with advanced carbon capture, systems and equipment which Global Gas sells, are demonstrated and mature technologies.

Hydrogen also can be produced electrolytically using an electrolyzer to separate the hydrogen and oxygen molecules in water (H2O). Based on U.S. Department of Energy, National Renewable Energy Lab data, production of hydrogen via electrolysis produces no CO2, but today requires 50 to 55 kilowatt hours of electrical energy to isolate a kilogram of hydrogen, the generation of such electricity may produce greenhouse gases. The price and lifecycle carbon emissions of hydrogen produced via both SMR and electrolysis is highly dependent on the price and emission profile of the inputs. For SMR production methane is the primary cost input, water and electricity are also inputs but generally not major cost drivers, and for electrolyzers electricity and water are the primary cost inputs. Cleaner, low carbon inputs produce lower emission, lower carbon hydrogen. Global Gas intends to use hydrogen generation technologies which are proven, tested, and have been in production for many years, focusing

The IEA has projected demand for pure hydrogen to continue growing at an average CAGR of 4.8% through 2050.

•        The above chart is prepared by the IEA and can be found at https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/charts/current-policy-support-for-hydrogen-deployment-2018.

Using IEA data Global Gas projects that within the transportation sub-sector, demand for hydrogen may grow at a higher compounded rate of 14.8% through 2050, driven by government incentives, fleet operator demand for zero emission heavy duty vehicles, and as hydrogen infrastructure is built out and fuel cell powertrain models are introduced to transport fleets. It is Global Gas’s opinion that hydrogen generation plants can remain in operation for 25 years or more if properly maintained. Therefore, hydrogen generation plants completed in 2024 may remain in operation until approximately 2049 or later.

Global Gas’s Growth Strategy

To date, hydrogen has not been widely used as an energy carrier for a number of reasons including:

1.      a dearth of fuel cell vehicles in production,

2.      a lack of economic incentives of fleet operators to decarbonize, and

3.      a lack of available hydrogen infrastructure in populated areas where hydrogen can be most useful in decarbonizing transportation.

Changing market conditions and government policy incentives favoring decarbonization have altered the landscape for fuel cell vehicle production and economic incentives for fleet operators. Global Gas’ growth strategy focuses on the lack of available hydrogen infrastructure in populated areas, and we seek to become the largest provider of clean, low carbon hydrogen in the top 100 US markets by population size.

Global Gas intends to grow through a reliance on our team’s knowledge of the landscape of feedstocks, hydrogen generation, storage, and dispensing technologies, the professional network of our team which provides access to project development deal flow opportunities that may not be available to competitors, and through our ability to offer attractive hydrogen pricing to our clients based on their specific geographic and volumetric requirements and the feedstocks available in their areas.

There are three foundations to our growth strategy:

Production Margin of Safety.    Global Gas strives to offer a competitive cost of hydrogen production by planning to locate and secure the highest quality, lowest cost, reliable local feedstock and the most appropriate technology for each of our development projects.

Generation Technology Agnostic

We plan to deploy a diverse network of equipment and technology suppliers, to produce hydrogen potentially utilizing steam methane reformers, alkaline electrolyzers, and proton exchange membrane (“PEM”) electrolyzers. Both alkaline and PEM electrolyzers use electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gas molecules. However, the different systems use different electrolytes and membranes to separate the cathodes and anodes. PEMs produce hydrogen at a high purity, but are typically used on a smaller scale; alkaline electrolyzers typically produce hydrogen on a large scale but lower purity hydrogen than PEM electrolyzers. National Renewable Energy Laboratory data indicates alkaline electrolyzers can reach >99.3% purity and PEMs can reach >99.9% purity. We plan to evaluate projects requiring hydrogen volumes of 100 normal cubic meters per hour (nm3h), roughly 400 to 500 kilowatts per hour, to 14,000 nm3h. We also intend to evaluate the production technology required on a project by project basis, and negotiate with our suppliers to size production capacity and plant, storage, compression, and dispensing equipment and footprint appropriately to meet customer needs.

Feedstock Flexibility

As we are generation technology agnostic, we plan to work with both renewable and non-renewable feedstocks, including but not limited to anaerobic digester gas, landfill gas, pipeline-delivered biomethane, pipeline natural gas, liquid propane gas, and renewable or grid electricity.

Waste-to-Energy Focus

To lower both the carbon intensity and cost of the hydrogen we produce, we target waste feedstock for hydrogen production and existing CO2 emitters for CO2 recovery.

Distribution Diversity.    We plan to sell hydrogen, CO2 and select other gases to industrial and hydrogen-as-an-energy-carrier customers that require high purity, reliable, cost-effective gas in bulk, dewar and cylinder volumes. We also plan to sell hydrogen generation and carbon dioxide recovery plants which are manufactured by our suppliers.

Single Input; Multiple Outputs

A key tenant of our growth strategy is to maximize the number of outputs we are able to achieve from a single feedstock input. We plan to evaluate and design projects to match the volumes of gases required by local offtake clients. Once a primary gas offtake and offtake customer have been identified, we plan to construct a full offtake plan for the project, taking into account the identified location of gas production, storage and dispensing, local feedstock availability, potential for additional local offtake customers of gases we could produce, and the local potential for merchant (spot) gas sales. We believe that all projects which successfully pass our design stage will typically support multiple gas output products.

Offtake/Merchant Mix

Designing projects with multiple outputs enables us to price gas we sell opportunistically, which we believe will enable us to achieve attractive end user pricing for both offtake (long term) and merchant (spot) customers. We believe our projects will typically have a target 70% or better offtake to merchant sales mix, and ideally all hydrogen produced would be sold on long-term contracts, — meaning, to successfully pass our project evaluation process for owned plants, we typically will have in hand, prior to approval of the project, letters of intent or customer commitments to purchase 70% or more of the project’s output. As such, for owned plants, Global Gas does not anticipate significant exposure to fluctuations in the market for hydrogen.

Low Lifecycle Carbon Intensity.    We plan to design our projects so that the hydrogen we produce and CO2 we recover will have as low a lifecycle carbon intensity as practical. We believe that some of our future projects, from feedstocks such as wastewater, will produce hydrogen with neutral or negative carbon intensity.

Human Capital Resources

As of April 11, 2024, Global Gas has two full-time employees, our Chief Executive Officer, William Bennett Nance, Jr., and our Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Shachi Shah. Our human capital management objectives include, as applicable, identifying, recruiting, retaining, incentivizing and integrating future employees.

Competition

We expect to generate revenue and income from the resale and leasing of systems and equipment, the resale of hydrogen gas purchased from other industrial suppliers, and the sale of value-added technical services such as: design, engineering and plant costing; project management; plant installation, plant commissioning, and plant startup; supervision of plant installation, plant commissioning and plant startup; and project structuring.

We compete with firms which manufacture, resell, and lease hydrogen equipment and infrastructure, and also with global industrial and regional gas suppliers who sell hydrogen, CO2 and air separation gases.

Competition in the systems and equipment and technical services business is based primarily on plant design and efficiency, quality of service, technical know-how, price, and delivery timelines, in addition to plant and equipment technology and performance guarantees. Competition in industrial gases is based primarily on price (absolute price and volatility of price), reliability of supply, ease of delivery, and end user application.

Customers

Our target customers are heavy duty fleet operators, owners of anaerobic digesters, landfills, renewable natural gas producers, other industrial gas distributors and traditional industrial chemical users of hydrogen.

Facilities

Our headquarters are located in New York, New York. We believe our current facilities are adequate for our current operating needs.

Legal Proceedings

We do not consider any claims, lawsuits, or proceedings that are currently pending against Global Gas, individually or in the aggregate, to be material to our business or likely to result in a material adverse effect on our future operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. From time to time, we may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and other legal and administrative proceedings that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings may range in complexity and result in substantial uncertainty; it is possible that they may result in damages, fines, penalties, non-monetary sanctions, or relief.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Global Gas is considered an emerging growth company for purposes of the SEC’s executive compensation disclosure rules. In accordance with such rules, Global Gas is required to provide tabular disclosure of summary compensation and outstanding equity awards at fiscal year end, as well as limited narrative disclosures.

Beginning in 2024, Mr. Nance is eligible to receive awards with respect to up to 20,000 shares, which vest on March 31st following the year in which the awards are granted based upon the achievement of performance goals related to free cash flow established by our board of directors and Mr. Nance’s continuous employment through the applicable vesting date of such awards.

The Nance Employment Agreement will continue until December 31, 2026, unless terminated or not renewed. The Nance Employment Agreement includes an automatic renewable mechanism for additional 12-month terms unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal.

Global Gas may terminate Mr. Nance’s employment with or without Cause (as that term is defined in the Nance Employment Agreement). Upon termination of Mr. Nance’s employment without Cause, his resignation for Good Reason (as that term is defined in the Nance Employment Agreement), or due to the Company’s issuance of a notice of non-renewal, Mr. Nance will receive severance pursuant to the Nance Employment Agreement as follows: (i) if the termination occurs outside of the period beginning on the date that is three months before a Change in Control (as that term is defined in the Nance Employment Agreement) and ending on the date that is 12 months after a Change in Control (the “Change in Control Period”), Mr. Nance will receive an amount equal to his annual base salary in effect on the date of termination, payable over 12 months on the Company’s regular pay dates for executive employees, or (ii) if the date of termination occurs during the Change in Control Period, Mr. Nance will receive two and one half times his annual base salary in effect on the date of termination payable over 30 months on the Company’s regular pay dates for executive employees.

On December 17, 2020, pursuant to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of Dune, as amended (the “Dune Charter”), each share of Dune Class B common stock outstanding immediately prior to December 17, 2020 was converted into one and two-thirteenths (12/13) shares of Dune Class B common stock, resulting in our Sponsor holding 4,312,500 founder shares. The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,850,000 private placement warrants, at a price of $1.00 per private placement warrant, or $4,850,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the IPO. Each private placement warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The private placement warrants (including the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination.

Administrative Services Agreement

Dune entered into an agreement that provided that, commencing on the date that our securities were first listed on Nasdaq until the earlier of our consummation of a Business Combination or our liquidation, we will pay our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to members of our management team.

Our Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, our executive officers or directors or their affiliates.

Related Party Reimbursements and Loans

On June 18, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $200,000 to cover expenses related to our IPO pursuant to that certain promissory note between Dune and our Sponsor dated June 18, 202 (the “Public Offering Note”). This loan was noninterest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the completion of the IPO. We borrowed approximately $31,000 under the Public Offering Note and fully repaid the Public Offering Note in full on December 22, 2020.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On June 21, 2023, Dune issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”) to the Sponsor, which provides for borrowings from time to time of up to an aggregate of $300,000 that may be drawn by Dune and used for working capital purposes and to pay expenses related to the Business Combination. The Sponsor Note does not bear interest and is payable on the earlier of December 31, 2023 and the completion of the Business Combination. The Sponsor Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of any of which automatically triggers the unpaid principal balance of the Sponsor Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Sponsor Note to become immediately due and payable. As of the Closing Date, the Company has $170,000 under the Sponsor Note.

Sponsor Exchange

On September 20, 2023, Dune and the Sponsor entered into the Sponsor Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Sponsor Exchange Agreement, on September 20, 2023, the Sponsor exchanged 4,312,500 shares of Dune Class B Common Stock, originally issued to the Sponsor prior to the consummation of Dune’s initial public offering, on a one-for-one basis for 4,312,500 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Sponsor Exchange Shares”) on the terms and conditions set forth in the Sponsor Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Exchange Agreement, the Sponsor Exchange Shares are subject to the same restrictions as applied to Dune Class B Common Stock before the Sponsor Exchange, including, among other things, certain transfer restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote such Sponsor Exchange Shares in favor of Dune’s initial business combination. The Sponsor (and any permitted transferees of the Sponsor holding any Sponsor Exchange Shares) will not be entitled to receive any distributions (including, without limitation, any liquidating distributions) from Dune’s trust account in respect of the Sponsor Exchange Shares. Following the completion of the Sponsor Exchange on September 20, 2023, there were 5,494,554 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of Dune Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding. As a result of the Sponsor Exchange, the Sponsor holds approximately 78.5% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

Global Hydrogen

On May 14, 2023, Global Hydrogen entered into the Purchase Agreement by and among Dune, Holdings, and the Sellers and certain ancillary agreements. William Bennett Nance, Jr. is both the Chief Executive Officer of Global Hydrogen and a member of the Dune Board and the chairman of the audit committee of the Dune Board. Accordingly, due to Mr. Nance’s influence over and affiliation with both companies, there may be a conflict of interest inherent in the selection of a target company by Dune, the selection of an acquiror by Global Hydrogen and the negotiation of the terms of the Business Combination by both parties. To address this potential conflict of interest, Mr. Nance has recused himself from Dune’s material deliberations with respect to the Business Combination.

On June 21, 2023, Global Hydrogen issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Glatt Note,” together with the Sponsor Note, the “Related Party Notes”) to Carter Glatt, Dune’s Chief Executive Officer and Director, which provides for borrowings from time to time of up to an aggregate of $250,000 that may be drawn by Global Gas and used for working capital purposes and to pay expenses related to the Business Combination. The Glatt Note does not bear interest and is payable on the earlier of December 31, 2023 and the completion of the Business Combination. The Glatt Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of any of which automatically triggers the unpaid principal balance of the Glatt Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Glatt Note to become immediately due and payable. As of Closing Date, Global Gas has borrowed $103,950 under the Glatt Note.

Nomination Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, Global Hydrogen entered into a Nomination Agreement (the “Nomination Agreement”) with each of the Sellers and the Sponsor, pursuant to which each of the Sellers and the Sponsor will have the right to nominate members of the board of directors of the Global Hydrogen in the number and subject to the beneficial ownership thresholds and terms and conditions set forth therein.

Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, the existing limited liability company agreement of Holdings was amended and restated in the form of the Holdings LLCA. Pursuant to the Holdings LLCA, the transfer of Holdings Common Units will be subject to certain transfer restrictions unless exchanged in the manner prescribed therein and on the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement.

Indemnification Agreements

On the Closing Date, the Global Hydrogen entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers.

All other terms and conditions of the Related Party Notes remain unchanged.

Lock-Up Agreement

On May 14, 2023, Dune, the Sponsor and each of the Sellers entered into a lock-up agreement (the “Lock-up Agreement”), which became effective as of the Closing. Under the Lock-up Agreement, the Sponsor and the Sellers agreed to certain restrictions on transfer with respect to the shares of Global Hydrogen common stock and private placement warrants they hold as of the Closing, which restrictions amend and supersede the restrictions on transfer the Sponsor agreed to in that certain letter agreement, dated December 17, 2020, entered into by and among Dune, the Sponsor and Dune’s officers and directors in connection with Dune’s initial public offering. The restrictions on transfer contained in the Lock-up Agreement apply to the Sellers and the existing equity holders of the Sponsor, and end: (i) with respect to shares of Company common stock, on the earlier of twelve (12) months after (and excluding) the Closing Date and the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, bankruptcy or other similar transaction that results in all of the shares of Company common stock being converted into cash, securities or other property; and (ii) with respect to the Company’s private placement warrants, thirty (30) days after the Closing Date.

Global Gas’ Policy for Approval of Related Party Transaction

Global Gas’ audit committee has adopted a policy setting forth the policies and procedures its review and approval or ratification of “related party transactions.” A “related party transaction” is any consummated or proposed transaction or series of transactions: (i) in which we were or are to be a participant; (ii) the amount of which exceeds (or is reasonably expected to exceed) $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets at year-end for the prior two completed fiscal years in the aggregate over the duration of the transaction; (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing if the foregoing person is a natural person; and (iv) any other person who maybe a “related person” pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. Pursuant to the policy, the audit committee considers (i) the relevant facts and circumstances of each related party transaction, including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s-length dealings with an unrelated third party, (ii) the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction, (iii) whether the transaction contravenes our code of ethics or other policies, (iv) whether the audit committee believes the relationship underlying the transaction to be in the best interests of the company and its stockholders and (v) the effect that the transaction may have on a director’s status as an independent member of the board and on his or her eligibility to serve on the board’s committees. Management will present to the audit committee each proposed related party transaction, including all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. Under the policy, we may consummate related party transactions only if our audit committee approves or ratifies the transaction in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the policy.

Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and Warrants

On July 10, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 3,737,500 shares of our founder shares, par value $0.0001 per share, for an aggregate price of $25,000. On December 17, 2020, pursuant to the Charter of Dune, each share of our Class B common stock outstanding immediately prior to December 17, 2020 was converted into one and two-thirteenths (12/13) shares of our Class B common stock, resulting in the Sponsor holding 4,312,500 founder shares. The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,850,000 private placement warrants, at a price of $1.00 per private placement warrant, or $4,850,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the IPO. Each private placement warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The private placement warrants (including the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination.

Nomination Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, Global Hydrogen entered into a Nomination Agreement (the “Nomination Agreement”) with each of the Sellers and the Sponsor, pursuant to which each of the Sellers and the Sponsor will have the right to nominate members of the board of directors of the Global Hydrogen in the number and subject to the beneficial ownership thresholds and terms and conditions set forth therein.

Registration Rights Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, Global Hydrogen, the Sponsor and the Sellers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Global Hydrogen agreed to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, certain shares of the Global Hydrogen’s common stock and other equity securities that are held by the parties thereto from time to time.

Exchange Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, the Global Hydrogen, Holdings and the Sellers entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Sellers have the right from time to time following the Closing, on the terms and conditions contained in the Exchange Agreement, to exchange their Holdings Common Units together with their shares of Class B Common Stock for, at the option of the Company, shares of Class A Common Stock or cash.

Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, the existing limited liability company agreement of Holdings was amended and restated in the form of the Holdings LLCA. Pursuant to the Holdings LLCA, the transfer of Holdings Common Units will be subject to certain transfer restrictions unless exchanged in the manner prescribed therein and on the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement.

Indemnification Agreements

On the Closing Date, the Global Hydrogen entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These indemnification agreements require Global Hydrogen to indemnify its directors and executive officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of the Global Hydrogen’s directors or executive officers or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the Global Hydrogen’s request.

Related Party Note Amendments

On the Closing Date, Dune, the Sponsor, and Global Hydrogen and Mr. Glatt amended the Related Party Notes (the “Related Party Note Amendments”), as applicable, to (i) defer the maturity date of the Related Party Notes to June 30, 2024, (ii) limit the principal amount available under the Sponsor Note to $170,000 and (iii) limit the principal amount available under the Glatt Note to $103,950. All other terms and conditions of the Related Party Notes remain unchanged.

Lock-Up Agreement

On May 14, 2023, Dune, the Sponsor and each of the Sellers entered into a lock-up agreement (the “Lock-up Agreement”), which became effective as of the Closing. Under the Lock-up Agreement, the Sponsor and the Sellers agreed to certain restrictions on transfer with respect to the shares of Global Hydrogen common stock and private placement warrants they hold as of the Closing, which restrictions amend and supersede the restrictions on transfer the Sponsor agreed to in that certain letter agreement, dated December 17, 2020, entered into by and among Dune, the Sponsor and Dune’s officers and directors in connection with Dune’s initial public offering. The restrictions on transfer contained in the Lock-up Agreement apply to the Sellers and the existing equity holders of the Sponsor, and end: (i) with respect to shares of Company common stock, on the earlier of twelve (12) months after (and excluding) the Closing Date and the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, bankruptcy or other similar transaction that results in all of the shares of Company common stock being converted into cash, securities or other property; and (ii) with respect to the Company’s private placement warrants, thirty (30) days after the Closing Date.

Forward Purchase Agreement and Subscription Agreement

In connection with the Business Combination, on December 1, 2023, Dune and Global Hydrogen entered into the Forward Purchase Agreement with the Meteora Entities for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction. In connection with the Forward Purchase Agreement, Dune entered into the Subscription Agreement with the Meteora Entities. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Meteora Entities agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and Dune agreed to issue and sell to the Meteora Entities, on the Closing Date, 681,220 shares of PIPE Shares in the aggregate. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, Global Hydrogen gave certain registration rights to the Meteora Entities with respect to the PIPE Shares. The sale of the PIPE Shares was consummated concurrently with the Closing.

On February 8, 2024, Global Gas and the Meteora Entities entered into the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment, which provides that Global Gas has the option, at its sole discretion, at any time up to 45 days prior to the valuation date, to request up to $5 million in Prepayment Shortfall via twenty separate Additional Shortfall Request, provided that at the time of any Additional Shortfall Request (i) the Meteora Entities has recovered 110% of the prior Additional Shortfall Request, if any, via Shortfall Sales and (ii) the VWAP Price over the five trading days prior to such Additional Shortfall Request multiplied by the then current Number of Shares less Shortfall Sale Shares held by Seller is at least 2.625 times greater than such Additional Shortfall Request (in each case, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment). In addition, the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment amends the section of the Forward Purchase Agreement regarding Prepayment Shortfall Consideration by eliminating the 180-day period following a Trade Date before Seller may commence selling Recycled Shares and by permitting such sales without payment by Seller of any Early Termination Obligation until such time as the proceeds from such sales equal 110% (instead of 100% as originally provided in the Forward Purchase Agreement) of the Prepayment Shortfall. Finally, the Forward Purchase Agreement Amendment amends the section of the Forward Purchase Agreement regarding Share Consideration by amending the holding period to equal the earlier of (i) Seller recovering 110% of the first Additional Shortfall Request and (ii) the three-month anniversary of the Business Combination (each term as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) (instead of just a three-month holding period).

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The following summary of the material terms of Global Gas’ securities is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such securities, and is qualified by reference to the Amended and Restated Charter. We urge you to read the applicable provisions of Delaware law, the Amended and Restated Charter and the Global Gas Bylaws in their entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of our securities.

As of April 11, 2024, there are approximately 5,428,256 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, 2,700,000 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding and 13,474,981 warrants outstanding, consisting of 8,624,981 public warrants and 4,850,000 private placement warrants.

Global Gas Common Stock

Voting Rights

Except as otherwise provided by law or in the Amended and Restated Charter or as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation for any series of preferred stock, the holders of Global Gas Common Stock possess all voting power for the election of our directors and all other matters requiring stockholder action and will at all times vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company. Holders of Global Gas Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on matters to be voted on by stockholders and will not have the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors.

Dividend Rights

The holders of Global Gas Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions as declared by the Global Gas Board, equally on a per share basis. Dividends shall not be declared or paid on Global Gas Class B Common Stock and the holders of shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock shall have no right to receive dividends in respect of such shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock.

Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Global Gas, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of Global Gas, and subject to the rights of the holders of shares of Global Gas’ preferred stock in respect thereof, the holders of shares of Global Gas Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of Global Gas available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Global Gas Class A Common Stock held by them. The holders of shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock, as such, will not be entitled to receive any assets of Global Gas in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of Global Gas.

Preemptive or Other Rights

Under the Amended and Restated Charter, our stockholders will have no preemptive or other subscription rights and there will be no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to Global Gas Common Stock.

Global Gas Class B Common Stock Exchange Rights

Shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock shall be exchangeable for shares of Global Gas Class A Common Stock on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in (A) the Holdings LLCA and (B) the Exchange Agreement. The holders of Holdings Common Units shall, to the extent provided in the Exchange Agreement and the Holdings LLCA and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement

and the Holdings LLCA, as applicable, have the right to exchange such Holdings Common Units, together with shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock, for such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Global Gas Class A Common Stock determined in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement.

Global Gas Class B Common Stock Transfer Restrictions

No share of Global Gas Class B Common Stock may be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred, other than as part of (i) the exchange of a Holdings Common Unit as set forth in the Amended and Restated Charter, or (ii) the transfer of a Holdings Common Unit by a holder of Holdings Common Units to a permitted transferee of such holder in accordance with the Holdings LLCA. In the event that any outstanding shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock are sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred other than as provided in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), or such outstanding shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock shall otherwise cease to be held by a holder (or a permitted transferee of such holder) of a corresponding number of Holdings Common Units (based on the exchange rate then in effect) for any reason, such shares of Global Gas Class B Common Stock shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Global Gas or any holder of Global Gas Class B Common Stock be deemed to be transferred to Global Gas and thereupon shall be retired.

Preferred Stock

The Amended and Restated Charter provides that shares of Global Gas preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Global Gas Board will be authorized to establish the number of shares to be included in such series, and fix the voting powers, full or limited, or no voting power of the shares of such series, and the designation, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our Board will be able, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our Board to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of the post-combination company or the removal of management of the post-combination company. Although we do not currently intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future.

Warrants

Public Stockholders’ Warrants

There are currently outstanding an aggregate of 8,624,981 public warrants, which will entitle the holder to acquire Global Gas Common Stock.

Each whole warrant will entitle the registered holder to purchase one share of Global Gas Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination, provided that we have an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Global Gas common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or we permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement) and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the statement of residence of holder. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock. This means only a whole warrant may be exercised at a given time by a warrant holder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. Accordingly, unless a holder has at least two units, such holder will not be able to receive or trade a whole warrant. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of our Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Global Gas will not be obligated to deliver any Global Gas Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Global Gas Common Stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to Global Gas satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue a share of Global Gas Common

Stock upon exercise of a warrant unless the share of Global Gas Common Stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will Global Gas be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the share of Global Gas Common Stock underlying such unit.

Global Gas has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the Closing, it will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Global Gas common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. We will use our best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Global Gas Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by 60th business day after the Closing, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. As of the date hereof, the warrants may be exercised on a “cashless basis.” Notwithstanding the above, if Global Gas Common Stock are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event we do not so elect, we will use our best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of warrants when the price per share of common stock equals or exceeds $18.00

Once the warrants become exercisable, Global Gas may call the warrants for redemption for cash:

•        in whole and not in part;

•        at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, to each warrant holder; and

•        if, and only if, the reported closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and for certain issuances of Global Gas Common Stock and equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the Closing as described elsewhere in this prospectus) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending three business days before New Global sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by Global Gas for cash, Global Gas may exercise its redemption right even if Global Gas is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

Global Gas has established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and Global Gas issues a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Global Gas Common Stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

If Global Gas calls the warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise his, her or its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider,

among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Global Gas Common Stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of our Global Gas Common Stock (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” will mean the average closing price of the Global Gas Common Stock for the ten trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock to be received upon exercise of the warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after our initial business combination. If we call our warrants for redemption and our management does not take advantage of this option, the holders of the private placement warrants and their permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their private placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrant holders would have been required to use had all warrant holders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

A holder of a warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (as specified by the holder) of the Global Gas Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

If the number of outstanding shares of Global Gas Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Global Gas Common Stock, or by a split-up of common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of common stock. A rights offering to holders of common stock entitling holders to purchase Global Gas Common Stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Global Gas Common Stock) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price per share Global Gas Common Stock paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Global Gas Common Stock, in determining the price payable for Global Gas Common Stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of shares of Global Gas Common Stock as reported during the ten trading-day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Global Gas Common Stock trades on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if we, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of Global Gas Common Stock on account of such Global Gas Common Stock (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Global Gas Common Stock in connection with a proposed initial business combination, or (d) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Global Gas Common Stock in respect of such event.

If the number of outstanding shares of Global Gas Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of Global Gas Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding share of Global Gas Common Stock.

Whenever the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

In addition, if (x) we issue additional shares of Global Gas Common Stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of our initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Global Gas Common Stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by our Board and, in the case of any such issuance to our initial stockholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by our initial stockholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial business combination on the date of the consummation of our initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of Global Gas Common Stock during the 20 trading-day period starting on the trading day after the day on which we consummate our initial business combination is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above under “— Redemption of warrants when the price per share of common stock equals or exceeds $18.00” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Global Gas Common Stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such Global Gas Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of outstanding Global Gas Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the Global Gas Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of Global Gas Common Stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Global Gas Common Stock in such a transaction is payable in the form of Global Gas Common Stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within 30 days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.

The warrants will be issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, and that all other modifications or amendments will require the vote or written consent of the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants, and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants, at least 50% of the then outstanding private placement warrants. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to Dune’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Dune’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive Global Gas Common Stock. After the issuance of Global Gas Common Stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock to be issued to the warrant holder.

We have agreed that, subject to applicable law, any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. See “Risk Factors — Our warrant agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us and Global Gas” for more information. This provision applies to claims under the Securities Act but does not apply to claims under the Exchange Act or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum.

Private Placement Warrants

The private placement warrants (including the Global Gas Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the Closing (except in limited circumstances) and they will not be redeemable by Global Gas so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees. Except as described below, the private placement warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than our Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by Global Gas and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units sold in the IPO.

If holders of the private placement warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock underlying the warrants multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” means the average reported closing price of the Global Gas Common Stock for the ten trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with our initial business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. The terms of such working capital loans by our Sponsor or its affiliates, or our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

Our Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the private placement warrants (including the Global Gas Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any of these warrants) until the date that is 30 days after the date of the Closing (except in limited circumstances). In addition, the private placement warrants will not be exercisable more than five years from the effective date of the registration statement for our IPO in accordance with FINRA rules.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of the Amended and Restated Charter, the Global Gas Bylaws and Applicable Law

Certain provisions of the Amended and Restated Charter, Global Gas Bylaws, and laws of the State of Delaware, where Global Gas is incorporated, may discourage or make more difficult a takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider in his or her best interest. These provisions may also adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Global Gas Common Stock. Global Gas believes that the benefits of increased protection give Global Gas the potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure Global Gas and outweigh the disadvantage of discouraging those proposals because negotiation of the proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Authorized but Unissued Shares

Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, which would apply if and so long as the Global Gas Common Stock remains listed on Nasdaq require stockholder approval of certain issuances equal to exceeding 20% of the then outstanding voting power or then outstanding number of shares of common stock. Additional shares that may be used in the future may be issued for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional capital, or to facilitate acquisitions. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Global Gas by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, or otherwise.

Number of Directors

The Amended and Restated Charter and the Global Gas Bylaws provide that, subject to any rights of holders of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors may be fixed from time to time pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Global Gas Board. The initial number of directors will be set at five.

Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Meetings, Nominations and Proposals

The Global Gas Bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the Global Gas Board or a committee of the Global Gas Board. In order to be “properly brought” before a meeting, a stockholder will have to comply with advance notice requirements and provide Global Gas with certain information. Generally, to be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be received at Global Gas’ principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. The Global Gas Bylaws also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. The Global Gas Bylaws allow the chairman of the meeting at a meeting of the stockholders to adopt rules and regulations for the conduct of meetings which may have the effect of precluding the conduct of certain business at a meeting if the rules and regulations are not followed. These provisions may also defer, delay, or discourage a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to influence or obtain control of Global Gas.

Limitations on Stockholder Action by Written Consent

The Amended and Restated Charter provides that, subject to the terms of any series of Global Gas preferred stock, until the Voting Threshold Date, any actions required to be taken or permitted to be taken by the Dune stockholders may be taken by written consent signed by the Global Gas stockholders having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize such action at a meeting. Following the Voting Threshold Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of Global Gas must be effected at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders and may not be effected by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

Business Combinations

Under Section 203 of the DGCL, a corporation will not be permitted to engage in a business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the time that such interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless:

(1)    prior to such time the board of directors of the corporation approved either an initial business combination or transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

(2)    upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

(3)    at or subsequent to such time an initial business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with that person’s affiliates and associates, owns, or within the previous three years owned, 15% or more of Global Gas’ outstanding voting stock. For purposes of this section only, “voting stock” has the meaning given to it in Section 203 of the DGCL.

The Amended and Restated Charter would cause Global Gas to not be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL.

Cumulative Voting

Under Delaware law, the right to vote cumulatively does not exist unless the charter specifically authorizes cumulative voting. The Amended and Restated Charter does not authorize cumulative voting.

Forum Selection Clause

The Amended and Restated Charter provides that, unless Global Gas consents to the selection of an alternative forum, any (i) derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Global Gas; (ii) action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of Global Gas to Global Gas or Global Gas’ stockholders; (iii) action asserting a claim against Global Gas or any director or officer arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Amended and Restated Charter or Global Gas Bylaws; or (iv) action asserting a claim against Global Gas or any director or officer of Global Gas governed by the internal affairs doctrine, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be exclusively brought in the Chancery Court or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, the federal district court of the State of Delaware. Subject to the foregoing, the federal district courts of the United States are the exclusive forum for the resolution of any action, suit or proceeding asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act. The exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring an interest in any shares of Global Gas Common Stock shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in Global Gas’ certificate of incorporation. These choice-of-forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that he, she or it believes to be favorable for disputes with Global Gas or Global Gas’ directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Amended and Restated Charter will provide that the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, and Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for state and federal courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by

the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

Although we believe this provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, a court may determine that this provision is unenforceable, and to the extent it is enforceable, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers, although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Additionally, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal courts shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act against us or any of our directors, officers, other employees or agents. Section 22 of the Securities Act, however, created concurrent jurisdiction for state and federal courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provisions, and the enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ charter documents has been challenged in legal proceedings. While the Delaware courts have determined that such exclusive forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions, and there can be no assurance that such provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to these provisions; however, we note that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The DGCL authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors and officers of corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors’ and officers’ fiduciary duties, subject to certain exceptions. Global Gas’ Amended and Restated Charter includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of directors and officers for damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended.

The Global Gas Bylaws provide that Global Gas must indemnify and advance expenses to Global Gas’ directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL. Global Gas also is expressly authorized to carry directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing indemnification for Global Gas directors, officers, and certain employees for some liabilities. Global Gas believes that these indemnification and advancement provisions and insurance are useful to attract and retain qualified directors and executive officers.

The limitation of liability, advancement and indemnification provisions in the Amended and Restated Charter and the Global Gas Bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing lawsuit against directors or officers for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit Global Gas and its stockholders. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent Global Gas pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officer pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

There is currently no pending material litigation or proceeding involving any of Global Gas’ directors, officers, or employees for which indemnification is sought.

Corporate Opportunities

Under the Amended and Restated Charter, Global Gas renounces any interest or expectancy in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any matter, transaction or interest that is presented to, or acquired, created or developed by, or which otherwise comes into the possession of, non-employee directors of Global Gas (including any non-employee director who serves as an officer of Global Gas, in both his or her director and officer capacities, or his or her affiliates), except that Global Gas does not renounce its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any non-employee director (including a non-employee director who serves as an officer of Global Gas in both his or her director and officer capacities) if such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director of Global Gas.

Dissenters’ Rights of Appraisal and Payment

Under the DGCL, with certain exceptions, Global Gas’ stockholders will not have appraisal rights in connection with a merger or consolidation of Global Gas while Global Gas’ stock is either listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 holders, subject to certain exceptions. Stockholders’ Derivative Actions.

Under the DGCL, any of Global Gas’ stockholders may bring an action in Global Gas’ name to procure a judgment in Global Gas’ favor, also known as a derivative action, provided that the stockholder bringing the action is a holder of Global Gas’ shares at the time of the transaction to which the action relates or such stockholder’s stock thereafter devolved by operation of law.

Transfer Agent, Warrant Agent and Registrar

The Transfer Agent for Global Gas capital stock is Continental. Global Gas agrees to indemnify Continental in its roles as Transfer Agent and warrant agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all claims and losses that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.

Rule 144

Pursuant to Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares or warrants of Global Gas for at least nine months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been an affiliate of Global Gas at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) Global Gas is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as we were required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares or warrants of Global Gas for at least nine months but who are affiliates of Global Gas at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

•        1% of the total number of shares of Global Gas Common Stock then outstanding; or

•        the average weekly reported trading volume of the Global Gas Common Stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by Global Gas affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about Global Gas.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

•        the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

•        the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

•        the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

•        at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As a result, the Sponsor, Global Gas’ officers, directors and other affiliates will be able to sell the Global Gas Common Stock they receive upon conversion of their founder shares and private placement warrants, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 144 without registration one year after Dune has filed current Form 10 information with the SEC reflecting the loss of its shell company status.

Following the Closing, Global Gas will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above-noted restricted securities.

Registration Rights

In connection with the Closing, Global Gas entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to the which, Global Gas will register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, certain shares of Global Gas Common Stock and other equity securities of Global Gas that are held by the parties thereto from time to time and the Sponsor and Global Hydrogen’s stockholders will be granted certain registration rights.

Listing of Common Stock

Global Gas’ Common Stock and public warrants are listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “HGAS” and “HGASW,” respectively.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering (i) up to 4,312,500 shares of Class A Common Stock for possible sale by the Selling Securityholders from time to time, (ii) up to 4,850,000 Private Placement Warrants for possible sale by the Selling Securityholders from time to time, (iii) up to 16,174,981 shares of Class A Common Stock that are issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants by the holders thereof and upon exchange of shares of Class B Common Stock and Holdings Common Units, and (iv) 681,220 shares of Class A Common Stock for possible sale by the Meteora Entities from time to time. We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of our Class A Common Stock, Common Stock and Warrants to be offered and sold pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Securityholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock or Warrants.

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the securities by the Selling Securityholders. We will receive proceeds from Warrants exercised in the event that such Warrants are exercised for cash. The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Securityholders will be the purchase price of the securities less any discounts and commissions borne by the Selling Securityholders.

The shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Securityholders covered by this prospectus may be offered and sold from time to time by the Selling Securityholders. The term “Selling Securityholders” includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest selling securities received after the date of this prospectus from a Selling Securityholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer. The Selling Securityholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or more exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices and under terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price or in negotiated transactions. The Selling Securityholders may sell their shares of Class A Common Stock or Warrants by one or more of, or a combination of, the following methods:

•        purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to this prospectus;

•        ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

•        block trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

•        an over-the-counter distribution in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq;

•        through trading plans entered into by a Selling Securityholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans;

•        to or through underwriters or broker-dealers;

•        in “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices, at prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar offerings through sales agents;

•        in privately negotiated transactions;

•        in options transactions;

•        through a combination of any of the above methods of sale; or

•        any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

In addition, any shares that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. In connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise, the Selling Securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of shares of Class A Common Stock (with any such short sales to be made only after effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part) in the course of hedging transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of shares of Class A Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with Selling Securityholders. The Selling Securityholders may also sell shares of Class A Common Stock short and redeliver the shares to close out such short positions. The Selling Securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The Selling Securityholders may also pledge shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution, may effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

A Selling Securityholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by any Selling Securityholder or borrowed from any Selling Securityholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from any Selling Securityholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, any Selling Securityholder may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the Selling Securityholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the Selling Securityholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

In offering the shares covered by this prospectus, the Selling Securityholders and any broker-dealers who execute sales for the Selling Securityholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. Any profits realized by the Selling Securityholders and the compensation of any broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

We have advised the Selling Securityholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Securityholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Securityholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Securityholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

At the time a particular offer of shares is made, if required, a prospectus supplement will be distributed that will set forth the number of shares being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name of any underwriter, dealer or agent, the purchase price paid by any underwriter, any discount, commission and other item constituting compensation, any discount, commission or concession allowed or reallowed or paid to any dealer, and the proposed selling price to the public.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion is a summary of material U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Common Stock and the purchase, exercise, disposition and lapse of our Warrants. The Common Stock and the Warrants are collectively referred to herein as our securities. All prospective holders of our securities should consult their tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our securities.

This summary is based upon provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”), and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof. Those authorities are subject to different interpretations and may be changed, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in United States federal income tax consequences different from those summarized below. This summary does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxes and does not deal with any estate or gift tax consequences or any foreign, state, local or other tax considerations that may be relevant to holders of our securities in light of their particular circumstances. In addition, it does not represent a detailed description of the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws (including if you are a former citizen or long-term resident of the United States, foreign pension fund, tax qualified retirement plan, bank, financial institution, insurance company, investment fund, tax-exempt organization, governmental organization, trader, broker or dealer in securities “controlled foreign corporation,” “passive foreign investment company,” a partnership or other pass-through entity for United States federal income tax purposes (or an investor in such a pass-through entity), person subject to the alternative minimum tax, person that owns, or has owned, actually or constructively, more than 5% of our Common Stock, person who has elected to mark securities to market, person who acquired shares of our Common Stock or Warrants as compensation or otherwise in connection with the performance of services, person who has acquired shares of our Common Stock or Warrants as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction or other integrated investment or an accrual-method taxpayer subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the IRC. We cannot assure you that a change in law will not alter significantly the tax considerations that we describe in this summary. This summary is limited to investors that will hold our securities as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment) under the IRC, and that acquire our securities for cash pursuant to this prospectus. No ruling from the IRS has been or will be sought regarding any matter discussed herein. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax aspects set forth below.

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) holds our Common Stock or Warrants, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) or partner of a partnership holding our Common Stock or Warrants, you should consult your tax advisors.

This discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations is for general information purposes only and is not tax or legal advice. You should consult your own tax advisors concerning the particular United States federal income tax consequences to you of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Common Stock and Warrants, as well as the consequences to you arising under other United States federal tax laws, the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction, or an applicable tax treaty.

U.S. Holders

•        This section applies to you if you are a “U.S. holder.” A U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of shares of our Common Stock or Warrants who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

•        a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•        an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

•        a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

Taxation of Distributions

If we pay distributions in cash or other property (other than certain distributions of our Common Stock or rights to acquire our Common Stock) to U.S. holders of shares of our Common Stock, such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our Common Stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Common Stock and will be treated as described under “U.S. Holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock or Warrants” below.

Dividends we pay to a U.S. holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends we pay to a non-corporate U.S. holder may constitute “qualified dividends” that would be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, then a corporation may not be able to qualify for the dividends received deduction and would have taxable income equal to the entire dividend amount, and non-corporate holders may be subject to tax on such dividend at regular ordinary income tax rates instead of the preferential rate that applies to qualified dividend income.

Gain or Loss on Taxable Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock or Warrants

Upon a taxable sale, taxable exchange or other taxable disposition of our Common Stock or Warrants, a U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Common Stock or Warrants. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Common Stock or Warrants generally will equal the U.S. holder’s acquisition cost for the Common Stock or Warrant less, in the case of a share of Common Stock, any prior distributions treated as a return of capital with respect to any such Common Stock.

Any capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Common Stock or Warrants so disposed of exceeds one year. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, any gain on a sale or taxable disposition of the shares or Warrants would be subject to short-term capital gain treatment and would be taxed at regular ordinary income tax rates. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Exercise, Redemption or Lapse of a Warrant

Except as discussed below with respect to the cashless exercise of a Warrant, a U.S. holder generally will not recognize taxable gain or loss on the acquisition of our Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant for cash. The U.S. holder’s tax basis in the share of our Common Stock received upon exercise of the Warrant generally will be an amount equal to the sum of the U.S. holder’s initial investment in the Warrant and the exercise price. It is unclear whether the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Common Stock received upon exercise of the Warrant will begin on the date following the date of exercise or on the date of exercise of the Warrant; in either case, the holding period will not include the period during which the U.S. holder held the Warrant. If a Warrant is allowed to lapse unexercised, a U.S. holder generally will recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the Warrant.

The tax consequences of a cashless exercise of a Warrant are not clear under current tax law. A cashless exercise may be tax-free, either because the exercise is not a realization event or because the exercise is treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In either tax-free situation, a U.S. holder’s basis in the Common Stock received would equal the holder’s basis in the Warrants exercised therefor. If the cashless exercise

were treated as not being a realization event, it is unclear whether a U.S. holder’s holding period in the Common Stock would be treated as commencing on the date following the date of exercise or on the date of exercise of the Warrant; in either case, the holding period would not include the period during which the U.S. holder held the Warrants. If the cashless exercise were treated as a recapitalization, the holding period of the Common Stock would include the holding period of the Warrants exercised therefor.

It is also possible that a cashless exercise could be treated in part as a taxable exchange in which gain or loss would be recognized. In such event, a U.S. holder could be deemed to have surrendered Warrants equal to the number of shares of Common Stock having a value equal to the exercise price for the total number of Warrants to be exercised. The U.S. holder would recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Common Stock received in respect of the Warrants deemed surrendered and the U.S. holder’s tax basis in the Warrants deemed surrendered. In this case, a U.S. holder’s tax basis in the Common Stock received would equal the sum of the fair market value of the Common Stock received in respect of the Warrants deemed surrendered and the U.S. holder’s tax basis in the Warrants exercised. It is unclear whether a U.S. holder’s holding period for the Common Stock would commence on the date following the date of exercise or on the date of exercise of the Warrants; in either case, the holding period would not include the period during which the U.S. holder held the Warrants. Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a cashless exercise, including when a U.S. holder’s holding period would commence with respect to the Common Stock received, there can be no assurance which, if any, of the alternative tax consequences and holding periods described above would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a cashless exercise.

If we redeem Warrants for cash pursuant to the redemption provisions described in the section of this prospectus entitled “Description of Securities — Warrants — Public Stockholders’ Warrants” or if we purchase Warrants in an open market transaction, such redemption or purchase generally will be treated as a taxable disposition to a U.S. holder, taxed as described above under “US. Holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock or Warrants.”

Possible Constructive Distributions

The terms of each Warrant provide for an adjustment to the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant may be exercised or to the exercise price of the Warrant in certain events, as discussed in the section of this prospectus entitled “Description of Securities — Warrants — Public Stockholders’ Warrants.” An adjustment which has the effect of preventing dilution generally is not taxable. The U.S. holders of the Warrants would, however, be treated as receiving a constructive distribution from us if, for example, the adjustment to the number of such shares of Common Stock or to such exercise price increases the Warrant holders’ proportionate interest in our assets or earnings and profits (e.g., through an increase in the number of shares of Common Stock that would be obtained upon exercise or through a decrease in the exercise price of the Warrant) as a result of a distribution of cash or other property, such as other securities, to the holders of shares of our Common Stock, or as a result of the issuance of a stock dividend to holders of shares of our Common Stock, in each case which is taxable to the holders of such shares as a distribution. Such constructive distribution would be subject to tax in the same manner as if the U.S. holders of the Warrants received a cash distribution from us equal to the fair market value of such increased interest.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, information reporting requirements may apply to dividends paid to a U.S. holder and to the proceeds of the sale, taxable exchange or other taxable disposition of our shares of Common Stock and Warrants, unless the U.S. holder is an exempt recipient. Backup withholding may apply to such payments if the U.S. holder fails to provide a taxpayer identification number, a certification of exempt status or has been notified by the IRS that it is subject to backup withholding (and such notification has not been withdrawn).

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally should be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Non-U.S. Holders

This section applies to you if you are a “non-U.S. holder.” As used herein, the term “non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our Common Stock or Warrants who or that is not a U.S. holder or a partnership.

Dividends

In the event that we make a distribution of cash or other property (other than certain pro rata distributions of our Common Stock) in respect of our Common Stock, the distribution generally will be treated as a dividend for United States federal income tax purposes to the extent it is paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under United States federal income tax principles. Any portion of a distribution that exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted tax basis (but not below zero) of a non-U.S. holder’s Common Stock, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our Common Stock, the excess will be treated as gain from the disposition of our Common Stock (the tax treatment of which is discussed below under “Gain on Sale Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants”).

Subject to the discussions below regarding effectively connected income, backup withholding and Sections 1471 through 1474 of the IRC (such Sections commonly referred to as “FATCA”), dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. A non-U.S. holder who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate and avoid backup withholding, as discussed below, for dividends will be required (a) to provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed IRS Form W-BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) certifying under penalty of perjury that such holder is not a United States person as defined under the IRC and is eligible for treaty benefits or (b) if our Common Stock is held through certain foreign intermediaries, to satisfy the relevant certification requirements of applicable United States Treasury regulations. Special certification and other requirements apply to certain non-U.S. holders that are pass-through entities rather than corporations or individuals. A non-U.S. holder eligible for a reduced rate of United States federal withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may be eligible to obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

Dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a United States permanent establishment) are not subject to the withholding tax. To claim the exemption, the non-U.S. holder must generally furnish a valid IRS Form W-8ECI (or applicable successor form) to the applicable withholding agent certifying eligibility for exemption. However, any such effectively connected dividends paid on our Common Stock generally will be subject to United States federal income tax on a net income basis in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a United States person as defined under the IRC. Any such effectively connected dividends received by a foreign corporation may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

Exercise, Redemption or Lapse of a Warrant

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a non-U.S. holder’s exercise of a Warrant, or the redemption or lapse of a Warrant, held by a non-U.S. holder, generally will correspond to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the exercise, redemption or lapse of a Warrant by a U.S. holder, as described under “U.S. Holders — Exercise, Redemption or Lapse of a Warrant” above, although to the extent a cashless exercise results in a taxable exchange, the consequences would be similar to those described below in “Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants.”

Gain on Taxable Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants

Subject to the discussion of backup withholding and FATCA below, any gain realized by a non-U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of our Common Stock or Warrants generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax unless:

•        the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business of the non-U.S. holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment of the non-U.S. holder);

•        the non-U.S. holder is a non-U.S. individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of that disposition, and certain other conditions are met; or

•        we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that the non-U.S. holder held our Common Stock or Warrants and, in the case where shares of our Common Stock are regularly traded on an established securities market, (i) the non-U.S. holder is disposing of our Common Stock and has owned, directly or constructively, more than 5% of our Common Stock at any time within the shorter of the five-year period preceding the disposition or such non-U.S. holder’s holding period for the shares of our Common Stock or (ii), in the case where our Warrants are regularly traded on an established securities market, the non-U.S. holder is disposing of our Warrants and has owned, directly or constructively, more than 5% of our Warrants at any time within the within the shorter of the five-year period preceding the disposition or such non-U.S. holder’s holding period for the shares of our Warrants. There can be no assurance that our Common Stock will be treated as regularly traded or not regularly traded on an established securities market for this purpose.

A non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point immediately above will be subject to tax on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a United States person as defined under the IRC. In addition, if any non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point immediately above is a foreign corporation, the gain realized by such non-U.S. holder may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. An individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point immediately above will be subject to a 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) tax on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition, which gain may be offset by United States source capital losses even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States, provided that the non-U.S. holder has timely filed United States federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

If the third bullet point above applies to a non-U.S. holder and applicable exceptions are not available, gain recognized by such holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our Common Stock or Warrants will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, a buyer of our Common Stock or Warrants from such holder may be required to withhold U.S. income tax at a rate of 15% of the amount realized upon such disposition. Generally, a corporation is a “United States real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its United States real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business (all as determined for United States federal income tax purposes). We believe we currently are not and do not anticipate becoming a “United States real property holding corporation” for United States federal income tax purposes However, such determination is factual in nature and subject to change and no assurance can be provided as to whether we are or will become a U.S. real property holding corporation.

Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Possible Constructive Distributions

The terms of each Warrant provide for an adjustment to the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant may be exercised or to the exercise price of the Warrant in certain events, as discussed in the section of this prospectus captioned “Description of Securities — Warrants — Public Stockholders’ Warrants.” An adjustment which has the effect of preventing dilution is generally not a taxable event. Nevertheless, a non-U.S. holder of Warrants would be treated as receiving a constructive distribution from us if, for example, the adjustment increases the non-U.S. holder’s proportionate interest in our assets or earnings and profits (e.g., through an increase in the number of shares of Common Stock that would be obtained upon exercise) as a result of a distribution of cash or other property, such as other securities, to the holders of shares of our Common Stock which is taxable to such holders as a distribution. Any constructive distribution received by a non-U.S. holder would be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including any applicable withholding) in the same manner as if such non-U.S. holder received a cash distribution from us equal to the fair market value of such increased interest without any corresponding receipt of cash. Any resulting withholding tax may be withheld from future cash distributions.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of dividends and the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our Common Stock and Warrants. A non-U.S. holder may have to comply with certification procedures to establish that it is not a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise establish an exemption in order to avoid information reporting and backup withholding requirements. The certification procedures required to claim a reduced rate of withholding under a treaty generally will satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the backup withholding as well. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a non-U.S. holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Requirements

Under FATCA, a 30% United States federal withholding tax may apply to any dividends (including constructive dividends) paid on, and (subject to the proposed Treasury regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, our securities to (i) a “foreign financial institution” (as specifically defined in the IRC) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) its compliance (or deemed compliance) with FATCA (which may alternatively be in the form of compliance with an intergovernmental agreement with the United States) in a manner which avoids withholding, or (ii) a “non-financial foreign entity” (as specifically defined in the IRC) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) adequate information regarding certain substantial United States beneficial owners of such entity (if any). If a dividend payment is both subject to withholding under FATCA and subject to the withholding tax discussed above under “— Dividends,” the withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Under certain circumstances, a non-U.S. holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. FATCA currently applies to dividends paid on our Common Stock. The Treasury Secretary has issued proposed regulations, that, if finalized in their proposed form, would provide that the withholding provisions under FATCA do not apply with respect to gross proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our securities, which may generally be relied upon by taxpayers until final regulations are issued. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding these requirements and whether they may be relevant to your ownership and disposition of our Common Stock.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Audit Committee
Global Gas Corporation
New York, New York

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Global Gas Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the period from February 16, 2023 (inception) to December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from February 16, 2023 (inception) to December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses from inception, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

PART II
Information Not Required in Prospectus

Item 13. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

The following is an estimate of the expenses (all of which are to be paid by the registrant) that we may incur in connection with the securities being registered hereby.

____________

*        These fees are calculated based on the securities offered and the number of issuances and accordingly cannot be defined at this time.

We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the securities, including with regard to compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws. The Selling Securityholders, however, will bear all underwriting commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their sale of the securities. All amounts are estimates except the SEC registration fee and the FINRA filing fee.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the DGCL provides, generally, that a corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A corporation may similarly indemnify such person for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of any action or suit by or in the right of the corporation, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in the case of claims, issues and matters as to which such person shall have been adjudged liable to the corporation, provided that a court shall have determined, upon application, that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.

In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, our Amended and Restated Charter provides that a director will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. No such provision shall eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision became effective. Accordingly, these provisions will have no effect on the availability of equitable remedies such as an injunction or rescission based on a director’s breach of his or her duty of care.

The Amended and Restated Charter provides that we will indemnify its present and former directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL and that such indemnification will not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw provision, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our current directors and executive officers. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We also intend to enter into indemnification agreements with future directors and executive officers.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

The Founder Shares, the Private Placement Warrants and the PIPE Shares were not registered under the Securities Act, and were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements thereof provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering without any form of general solicitation or general advertising.

Item 16. Exhibits.

____________

**      Previously Filed

+        The schedules and exhibits to this agreement have been omitted pursuant to Item 601(a)(5) of Regulation S-K. A copy of any omitted schedule and/or exhibit will be furnished to the SEC upon request.

#        Indicates management contract or compensatory plan or arrangement.

Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

A.     To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)     To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii)    To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

(iii)   To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

B.      That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C.     To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

D.     That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

E.      That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)     Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)    Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)   The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv)   Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

F.      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
