**Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.** 

***Amendment to Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement***

As previously disclosed, on May 7, 2025 (the "Closing Date"), LanzaTech Global, Inc. (the "Company") and LanzaTech Global SPV, LLC, an entity controlled by an existing investor (the "Purchaser"), entered into a Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which the Company issued and sold on such date 20,000,000 shares of its preferred stock designated as "Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock", par value of $0.0001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), to the Purchaser for an aggregate purchase price of $40,000,000 (the "Preferred Stock Issuance").

On June 2, 2025, the Company and the Purchaser entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement Amendment") whereby the parties mutually agreed to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• extend the date (as previously amended by that certain Waiver Agreement entered into as of May 31, 2025, by and between the Company and the Purchaser (the "Waiver Agreement")), for the Company to issue and sell to the Purchaser warrants, substantially in the form attached to the Purchase Agreement Amendment (the "Warrants"), to purchase an aggregate of 780,000,000 shares ("Warrant Shares") of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company, at an exercise price equal to $0.0000001 per Warrant Share (subject to adjustment in certain events and to be no less than par value of the Common Stock), subject to certain Conditions to Exercise (as defined below) from (a) May 31, 2025 until (b) immediately prior to the consummation, if any, of the "Subsequent Financing" (which is defined in the Purchase Agreement as the issuance of Common Stock to one or more accredited investors reasonably satisfactory to the majority of holders of the Preferred Stock (the "Majority Holders"), at a price per share of $0.05 (subject to adjustment in certain events), payable in cash, with an aggregate original issue price of not less than $35,000,000 and not more than $60,000,000, on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders) or a financing that does not constitute a Subsequent Financing (an "Other Financing" and, together with a Subsequent Financing, a "Financing") (such time, the "Issuance Time"), in each case, if and only if the Issuance Time occurs on or prior to May 7, 2026. If certain conditions are satisfied, including, among other things, (i) obtaining certain requisite stockholder approvals in respect of the Warrant Shares and the shares of Common Stock issuable in a Financing (collectively, the "Requisite Stockholder Approvals") and (ii) the Company consummating a Financing (collectively, "Conditions to Exercise"), each Warrant will be deemed automatically exercised, concurrently with the consummation of such Financing, on a cashless, net-exercise basis;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that the deadline by which the Company is required to deliver to the Purchaser written consent of BGTF Aggregator LP (the "Consent") is June 6, 2025;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• extend the deadline by which the Company is required to convene a meeting of its stockholders to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approvals and certain other required shareholder approvals, which include, among other things, approval to issue Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Common Shares") to no later than 75 days following the Closing Date in the event that the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission does not conduct a review of the applicable preliminary proxy statement (the "Extended Meeting Date");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• extend the deadline by which the Company is required to consummate the Subsequent Financing to no later than 45 days following receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals (the "Extended Subsequent Financing Date"); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• make certain other technical, conforming, clarifying or other changes, including those to effectuate the terms of the Purchase Agreement Amendment and A&R CoD (as defined below).

------

***Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation***

On June 2, 2025, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "A&R CoD") with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The A&R CoD: (i) provides that the Company's failure to obtain the Consent by June 6, 2025 would trigger a mandatory redemption event; (ii) amends the definition of "Subsequent Financing" to reflect the Extended Subsequent Financing Date; (iii) amends the definition of "Stockholder Approval Deadline" to reflect the Extended Meeting Date; and (iv) makes certain other technical, conforming, clarifying and other changes, including to reflect the foregoing.

***Waiver Agreement***

As previously disclosed, in connection with the execution of Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Purchaser on the Closing Date (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), which granted the Purchaser customary registration rights with respect to the Preferred Common Shares and the Warrant Shares and required the Company to register (the "Registration Statement") for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, such shares within certain prescribed deadlines for filing and effectiveness. Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Purchaser waived the obligation of the Company to file the Registration Statement by June 6, 2025, and the Company agreed to file the Registration Statement no later than the earlier of (i) 45 calendar days following receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals and (ii) 10 business days following the issuance of the Warrant Shares. The Purchaser and the Company also agreed to certain other technical, conforming, clarifying and other changes, including to reflect the foregoing.

The foregoing summaries of the Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Waiver Agreement, the Warrants and the A&R CoD do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Waiver Agreement, the Warrants and the A&R CoD, copies of which are being filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are incorporated by reference herein. The Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Waiver Agreement, the Warrants and the A&R CoD are not intended to be a source of factual, business or operational information about the Company or its subsidiaries.

![](exhibit32projectrefuel-a001.jpg)

Exhibit 3.2 1 AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE SENIOR PREFERRED STOCK OF LANZATECH GLOBAL, INC. Pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware Pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), LanzaTech Global, Inc., a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the DGCL (the "Issuer" or the "Company"), in accordance with the provisions of Section 103 thereof, does hereby submit the following: WHEREAS, the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Certificate of Incorporation") authorizes the issuance of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Issuer in one or more series; and expressly authorizes the Board of Directors of the Issuer, to provide out of the unissued shares of the Preferred Stock for one or more series of Preferred Stock and to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series and to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, if any, of each such series and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such series and included in a certificate of designation filed pursuant to the DGCL; and WHEREAS, on May 7, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation (the "Original Certificate of Designation") for purposes of issuing shares of Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share, designated as a series known as Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock, with each such share having the designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions, as set forth in the Original Certificate of Designation; and WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 242 of the DGCL, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the following resolution for the purpose of amending and restating the terms of the Original Certificate of Designation, and such resolution was subsequently approved by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Board and in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and the DGCL, the Original Certificate of Designation shall be amended and restated, such that the designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be, as follows:

------

![](exhibit32projectrefuel-a002.jpg)

2 1. Designation. A total of 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share, shall be designated as a series known as Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), with each such share having an initial original issue price ("Original Issue Price") of $2.00 per share, which Series A Preferred Stock will have the respective designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth in this Certificate of Designation. 2. Ranking; Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up; Certain Mergers, Consolidations and Asset Sales. (a) Ranking Generally. The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank senior to the Junior Stock in priority of payment in all respects, including with respect to (i) distribution of assets, (ii) distributions in connection with any Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, and (iii) all other redemption rights. (b) Preferential Payments to Holders of Preferred Stock. In the event of, as applicable, (i) any Liquidation Event, the Holders shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, which may include any distribution made pursuant to a plan under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (or its equivalent), and (ii) any Deemed Liquidation Event, the Holders shall be entitled to be paid out of the consideration payable to stockholders in such Deemed Liquidation Event or out of the Available Proceeds, in each case, on a pari passu basis and before any payment shall be made to the holders of Junior Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the greater of (A) the Liquidation Value as of such date of determination, (B) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of such Series A Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 immediately prior to such Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, and, solely with respect to a Liquidation Event, (C) the Redemption Price, as applicable (the amount payable pursuant to this sentence is hereinafter referred to as the "Payment Amount"). If upon any such Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the Holders the full Payment Amount to which they shall be entitled under this Section 2(b), the Holders shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution, on a pari passu basis and in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full. (c) Effecting a Deemed Liquidation Event. The Company shall not have the power to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event, and shall not effect a Deemed Liquidation Event, unless the definitive agreement or plan with respect to such transaction or the terms of such transaction (any such agreement, plan or terms, the "Transaction Document") provides that the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Company in such Deemed Liquidation Event shall be allocated to the holders of capital stock of the Company in accordance with this Section 2. (d) Amount Deemed Paid or Distributed. The amount deemed paid or distributed to the holders of capital stock of the Company upon any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, exclusive license, other disposition or redemption shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights or securities to be paid or distributed to such holders pursuant to the Deemed Liquidation Event or the Liquidation Event, as applicable. The value of such property, rights or securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, including the approval of the Series A Director (if then-serving). (e) Allocation of Escrow and Contingent Consideration. In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event or a Liquidation Event, as applicable, if any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Company is payable only upon satisfaction of contingencies (the "Additional

4 calculated as the product of (i) the Liquidation Value of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding as of the Dividend Accrual Date for such Dividend Period, and (ii) 8% (the "Dividend Rate") for each day elapsed during such Dividend Period divided by 360. Dividends will accrue quarterly in arrears on each Dividend Accrual Date and, once accrued, shall not be declared or paid but shall instead be added to the Liquidation Value of such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the applicable Dividend Accrual Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Dividend Accruals will be deemed to have accrued as of the Initial Issue Date notwithstanding the subsequent amendment and restatement of the Original Certificate of Designation. (c) Dividends or Distributions on Common Stock. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall fully participate, on an as-converted basis, in any dividends declared and paid or distributions on Common Stock as if the shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into shares of Common Stock (as provided in Section 5) as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. 5. Conversion. (a) Conversion Right; Conversion Ratio. Subject to applicable law, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder thereof (with respect to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by the Holder) or at the option of the Majority Holders on behalf of all Holders (with respect to all shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding), at any time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the Holder thereof, into one fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and/or the Common Stock, including the Reverse Stock Split). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designation, prior to the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to, and shall not exceed, the Share Conversion Cap or the Charter Cap. (b) Mechanics of Conversion. (i) Notice of Conversion. In order for a Holder or the Majority Holders (on behalf of all Holders), as applicable, to voluntarily convert shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, (A) such Holder or the Majority Holders, as applicable, shall provide written notice to the Company's transfer agent at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent) that (x) such Holder elects to convert all or any number of such Holder's shares of Series A Preferred Stock or (y) the Majority Holders elect to convert all, but not less than all, of the then- outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, and, if applicable, any event on which such conversion is contingent and (B) if any converting Holder's shares are certificated, such Holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or, if such registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company against any claim that may be made against the Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent). Such notice shall state such Holder's name and the names of the nominees in which such Holder wishes the shares of Common Stock to be issued. If required by the Company, any certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered Holder or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The close of business, Eastern Time, on the date of receipt by the transfer agent (or by the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent) of such notice and, if applicable, certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) shall

------

![](exhibit32projectrefuel-a005.jpg)

5 be the time of conversion (the "Conversion Time"), and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the specified shares shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such date. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Time, issue and deliver to the converting Holder or Holders, or to their nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if any) of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into Common Stock or, if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book-entry form. Delivery of the Common Stock upon conversion pursuant to Section 5(a) shall be deemed to fully satisfy and discharge any obligation with respect to accrued Dividend Accruals on such converted shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of the Conversion Time. (ii) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times following receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals and so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. If at any time following receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation. (iii) Effect of Conversion. All shares of Series A Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time, except the right of the Holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor. (iv) Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid. 6. Mandatory Redemption. (a) Redemption Offer. Subject to applicable law, upon (i) any Change of Control, (ii) any Liquidation Event, (iii) (A) the Company or any Material Subsidiary consenting to the institution of any Liquidation Event or (B) the Company or any Material Subsidiary obtaining approval from the Board of Directors or a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, to institute or consent to the institution of any Liquidation Event, (iv) direction from the Board of Directors, any Subsidiary Board or any Company representative acting with valid authority to file a Voluntary Petition for Non-Individuals Filing for Bankruptcy to commence a case under the Bankruptcy Code (each of the events in the foregoing clauses (i)-(iv), an "Automatic Redemption Event" and each of the events in the foregoing clauses (ii)-(iv) an "Automatic Exchange Event"), (v) any Deemed Liquidation, (vi) any Insufficient Capitalization Event, (vii) any

------

![](exhibit32projectrefuel-a006.jpg)

6 Uncured Company Breach, or (viii) any failure to obtain the Specified Consent on or prior to June 6, 2025 (each of the events in the foregoing clauses (i)-(viii), a "Mandatory Redemption Event"), the Company shall make an irrevocable and unconditional offer (a "Redemption Offer") to all Holders, prior to or upon the occurrence of such Mandatory Redemption Event, as applicable, to redeem all (or part, if applicable, in the case of a Deemed Liquidation Event) of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (such redemption, a "Mandatory Redemption") on the applicable date determined in accordance with Section 6(b) (the "Mandatory Redemption Date"), in cash or for such other consideration as set forth in this Section 6(b), at a price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the then applicable Redemption Price with respect to each such share of Series A Preferred Stock. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6(b), such Redemption Offer may be accepted by the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion), on behalf of all Holders, by delivery of written notice to the Company (an "Exercise Notice"); provided, however, that in the case of a Change of Control, at the election of the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion), exercisable by delivery of an Exercise Notice to the Company, in lieu of receiving the Redemption Price in respect of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Holders shall be entitled to receive the applicable portion of the consideration payable to all stockholders of the Company upon such Change of Control, determined in accordance with Section 2; provided, further, in connection with any Deemed Liquidation Event consummated by the Company with the prior affirmative vote or written consent of the Majority Holders, to the extent required by Section 8, the Company shall redeem the maximum aggregate number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, on a pari passu basis, that can be redeemed with the Deemed Liquidation Event Proceeds, and all other Series A Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof (including with respect to redemption rights). If, on the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company is prohibited by law from redeeming all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by all Holders, then the Company shall redeem such Series A Preferred Stock to the fullest extent not so prohibited, on a pari passu basis. (b) Redemption Offer Mechanics. (i) With respect to any Automatic Redemption Event or Deemed Liquidation, the corresponding Mandatory Redemption shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be consummated concurrently with the occurrence of such Automatic Redemption Event or Deemed Liquidation, as applicable, (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion)), and without the delivery of an Exercise Notice or any other action by the Majority Holders (other than in the event of a Change of Control, if applicable) and without the need for any action by the Company. (ii) With respect to an Automatic Exchange Event, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed automatically surrendered to the Company, redeemed and extinguished in exchange for, in a tax-efficient manner reasonably acceptable to the Majority Holders, one or more Promissory Notes, without the delivery of an Exercise Notice or any other action by the Holders and any lack of action or action to the contrary shall not affect the effectiveness of the exchange as to such Series A Preferred Stock into the Promissory Note(s). Upon the Automatic Exchange Event, such shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been redeemed, whether or not the certificates for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been surrendered for redemption and canceled, and Dividend Accruals with respect to such redeemed shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to accumulate and all designations, rights, preferences, powers, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of such redeemed shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall forthwith terminate. (iii) With respect to any Insufficient Capitalization Event, upon delivery of an Exercise Notice by the Majority Holders to the Company, the corresponding Mandatory Redemption shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be consummated concurrently with the

------

![](exhibit32projectrefuel-a007.jpg)

7 occurrence of such Insufficient Capitalization Event (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion)). (iv) With respect to any Uncured Company Breach, upon delivery of an Exercise Notice by the Majority Holders to the Company, the corresponding Mandatory Redemption shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be consummated no later than five Business Days following the occurrence of such Uncured Company Breach (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion)).

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Board and in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and the DGCL, the Original Certificate of Designation shall be amended and restated, such that the designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be, as follows: SECTION 1.

------

![](exhibit101projectrefuel-009.jpg)

2 (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), with each such share having an initial original issue price ("Original Issue Price") of $2.00 per share, which Series A Preferred Stock will have the respective designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth in this Certificate of Designation. SECTION 2. Ranking; Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up; Certain Mergers, Consolidations and Asset Sales. (a) Ranking Generally. The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank senior to the Junior Stock in priority of payment in all respects, including with respect to (i) distribution of assets, (ii) distributions in connection with any Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, and (iii) all other redemption rights. (b) Preferential Payments to Holders of Preferred Stock. In the event of, as applicable, (i) any Liquidation Event, the Holders shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, which may include any distribution made pursuant to a plan under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (or its equivalent), and (ii) any Deemed Liquidation Event, the Holders shall be entitled to be paid out of the consideration payable to stockholders in such Deemed Liquidation Event or out of the Available Proceeds, in each case, on a pari passu basis and before any payment shall be made to the holders of Junior Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the greater of (A) the Liquidation Value as of such date of determination, (B) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of such Series A Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 immediately prior to such Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, and, solely with respect to a Liquidation Event, (C) the Redemption Price, as applicable (the amount payable pursuant to this sentence is hereinafter referred to as the "Payment Amount"). If upon any such Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the Holders the full Payment Amount to which they shall be entitled under this Section 2(b), the Holders shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution, on a pari passu basis and in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full. (c) Effecting a Deemed Liquidation Event. The Company shall not have the power to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event, and shall not effect a Deemed Liquidation Event, unless the definitive agreement or plan with respect to such transaction or the terms of such transaction (any such agreement, plan or terms, the "Transaction Document") provides that the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Company in such Deemed Liquidation Event shall be allocated to the holders of capital stock of the Company in accordance with this Section 2. (d) Amount Deemed Paid or Distributed. The amount deemed paid or distributed to the holders of capital stock of the Company upon any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, exclusive license, other disposition or redemption shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights or securities to be paid or distributed to such holders pursuant to the Deemed Liquidation Event or the Liquidation Event, as applicable. The value of such property, rights or securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, including the approval of the Series A Director (if then-serving). (e) Allocation of Escrow and Contingent Consideration. In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event or a Liquidation Event, as applicable, if any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Company is payable only upon satisfaction of contingencies (the "Additional Consideration"), the Transaction Document shall provide that: (i) the portion of such consideration that is not Additional Consideration (such portion, the "Initial Consideration") shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Company in accordance with Sections 2(b) and 2(c) as if the Initial Consideration were the

4 Accrual Date and, once accrued, shall not be declared or paid but shall instead be added to the Liquidation Value of such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the applicable Dividend Accrual Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Dividend Accruals will be deemed to have accrued as of the Initial Issue Date notwithstanding the subsequent amendment and restatement of the Original Certificate of Designation. (c) Dividends or Distributions on Common Stock. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall fully participate, on an as-converted basis, in any dividends declared and paid or distributions on Common Stock as if the shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into shares of Common Stock (as provided in Section 5) as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. SECTION 5. Conversion. (a) Conversion Right; Conversion Ratio. Subject to applicable law, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder thereof (with respect to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by the Holder) or at the option of the Majority Holders on behalf of all Holders (with respect to all shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding), at any time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the Holder thereof, into one fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and/or the Common Stock, including the Reverse Stock Split). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designation, prior to the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to, and shall not exceed, the Share Conversion Cap or the Charter Cap. (b) Mechanics of Conversion. (i) Notice of Conversion. In order for a Holder or the Majority Holders (on behalf of all Holders), as applicable, to voluntarily convert shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, (A) such Holder or the Majority Holders, as applicable, shall provide written notice to the Company's transfer agent at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent) that (x) such Holder elects to convert all or any number of such Holder's shares of Series A Preferred Stock or (y) the Majority Holders elect to convert all, but not less than all, of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, and, if applicable, any event on which such conversion is contingent and (B) if any converting Holder's shares are certificated, such Holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or, if such registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company against any claim that may be made against the Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent). Such notice shall state such Holder's name and the names of the nominees in which such Holder wishes the shares of Common Stock to be issued. If required by the Company, any certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered Holder or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The close of business, Eastern Time, on the date of receipt by the transfer agent (or by the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent) of such notice and, if applicable, certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) shall be the time of conversion (the "Conversion Time"), and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the specified shares shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such date. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Time, issue and deliver to the converting Holder or Holders, or to their nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if

------

![](exhibit101projectrefuel-012.jpg)

5 any) of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into Common Stock or, if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book-entry form. Delivery of the Common Stock upon conversion pursuant to Section 5(a) shall be deemed to fully satisfy and discharge any obligation with respect to accrued Dividend Accruals on such converted shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of the Conversion Time. (ii) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times following receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals and so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. If at any time following receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation. (iii) Effect of Conversion. All shares of Series A Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time, except the right of the Holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor. (iv) Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid. SECTION 6. Mandatory Redemption. (a) Redemption Offer. Subject to applicable law, upon (i) any Change of Control, (ii) any Liquidation Event, (iii) (A) the Company or any Material Subsidiary consenting to the institution of any Liquidation Event or (B) the Company or any Material Subsidiary obtaining approval from the Board of Directors or a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, to institute or consent to the institution of any Liquidation Event, (iv) direction from the Board of Directors, any Subsidiary Board or any Company representative acting with valid authority to file a Voluntary Petition for Non-Individuals Filing for Bankruptcy to commence a case under the Bankruptcy Code (each of the events in the foregoing clauses (i)-(iv), an "Automatic Redemption Event" and each of the events in the foregoing clauses (ii)-(iv) an "Automatic Exchange Event"), (v) any Deemed Liquidation, (vi) any Insufficient Capitalization Event, (vii) any Uncured Company Breach, or (viii) any failure to obtain the Specified Consent on or prior to June 6, 2025 (each of the events in the foregoing clauses (i)-(viii), a "Mandatory Redemption Event"), the Company shall make an irrevocable and unconditional offer (a "Redemption Offer") to all Holders, prior to or upon the occurrence of such Mandatory Redemption Event, as applicable, to redeem all (or part, if applicable, in the case of a Deemed Liquidation Event) of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (such redemption, a "Mandatory Redemption") on the applicable date determined in accordance with Section 6(b) (the "Mandatory Redemption Date"), in cash or for such other consideration as set forth in this Section 6(b), at a price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the then applicable Redemption Price with respect

------

![](exhibit101projectrefuel-013.jpg)

6 to each such share of Series A Preferred Stock. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6(b), such Redemption Offer may be accepted by the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion), on behalf of all Holders, by delivery of written notice to the Company (an "Exercise Notice"); provided, however, that in the case of a Change of Control, at the election of the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion), exercisable by delivery of an Exercise Notice to the Company, in lieu of receiving the Redemption Price in respect of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Holders shall be entitled to receive the applicable portion of the consideration payable to all stockholders of the Company upon such Change of Control, determined in accordance with Section 2; provided, further, in connection with any Deemed Liquidation Event consummated by the Company with the prior affirmative vote or written consent of the Majority Holders, to the extent required by Section 8, the Company shall redeem the maximum aggregate number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, on a pari passu basis, that can be redeemed with the Deemed Liquidation Event Proceeds, and all other Series A Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof (including with respect to redemption rights). If, on the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company is prohibited by law from redeeming all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by all Holders, then the Company shall redeem such Series A Preferred Stock to the fullest extent not so prohibited, on a pari passu basis. (b) Redemption Offer Mechanics. (i) With respect to any Automatic Redemption Event or Deemed Liquidation, the corresponding Mandatory Redemption shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be consummated concurrently with the occurrence of such Automatic Redemption Event or Deemed Liquidation, as applicable, (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion)), and without the delivery of an Exercise Notice or any other action by the Majority Holders (other than in the event of a Change of Control, if applicable) and without the need for any action by the Company. (ii) With respect to an Automatic Exchange Event, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed automatically surrendered to the Company, redeemed and extinguished in exchange for, in a tax-efficient manner reasonably acceptable to the Majority Holders, one or more Promissory Notes, without the delivery of an Exercise Notice or any other action by the Holders and any lack of action or action to the contrary shall not affect the effectiveness of the exchange as to such Series A Preferred Stock into the Promissory Note(s). Upon the Automatic Exchange Event, such shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been redeemed, whether or not the certificates for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been surrendered for redemption and canceled, and Dividend Accruals with respect to such redeemed shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to accumulate and all designations, rights, preferences, powers, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of such redeemed shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall forthwith terminate. (iii) With respect to any Insufficient Capitalization Event, upon delivery of an Exercise Notice by the Majority Holders to the Company, the corresponding Mandatory Redemption shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be consummated concurrently with the occurrence of such Insufficient Capitalization Event (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion)). (iv) With respect to any Uncured Company Breach, upon delivery of an Exercise Notice by the Majority Holders to the Company, the corresponding Mandatory Redemption shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be consummated no later than five Business Days following the occurrence of such Uncured Company Breach (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Holders (in their sole and absolute discretion)).

------

![](exhibit101projectrefuel-014.jpg)

FORM OF WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK of LANZATECH GLOBAL, INC. Dated as of ___________, 202__ No. 1 WARRANT TO PURCHASE 780,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK This WARRANT ("Warrant") certifies that LanzaTech Global SPV, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, or its registered assigns, is the registered holder (the "Warrantholder") of a warrant, issued by LanzaTech Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), to purchase the number of shares (the "Warrant Shares") of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (such stock, including at the par value that will be reflected in the Certificate of Amendment, the "Common Stock"), as set forth above at an exercise price equal to $0.0000001 per share (as adjusted in accordance with this Warrant, the "Exercise Price"), which, subject to the satisfaction of the Conditions to Exercise, shall be automatically exercised at the Exercise Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Warrant. SECTION 1. Exercise Price. The Warrant evidenced hereby entitles the holder, upon proper exercise and payment of the applicable Exercise Price (including by Cashless Exercise), to receive from the Company, as adjusted as provided herein, 780,000,000 fully-paid, non-assessable shares of Common Stock. SECTION 2. Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be kept and properly maintained by the Company at its principal executive offices (the "Warrant Register") in the name of the record Warrantholder hereof from time to time. Absent manifest error or actual notice to the contrary, the Company may deem and treat the Warrantholder so registered as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Warrantholder, and for all other purposes. Any holder of this Warrant (or of any portion of this Warrant) may change its address as shown on the Warrant Register by written notice to the Company requesting a change. SECTION 3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2 SECTION 4. Transfers. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 4(c), the Warrantholder may sell, assign, transfer, pledge or dispose of all or any portion of this Warrant at any time or from time to time without the prior approval of the Company. In connection with any transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant, the Warrantholder must provide an assignment form substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and executed by the Warrantholder or any such subsequent Warrantholder, as applicable, and the proposed transferee must consent in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant. Any transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant shall also be subject to the Securities Act and other applicable federal or state securities or blue sky laws. Upon any transfer of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company within two Trading Days of the date the Warrantholder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant and the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, shall issue to the Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled in accordance with Section 6, and the Company shall register any such transfer upon the Warrant Register. This Warrant or any portion thereof shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or disposed of in violation of the Securities Act, federal or state securities laws or the Company's Charter. (b) No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of this Warrant, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp or other tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed on the Warrantholder in connection with any such exchange or registration of transfer. (c) This Warrant shall not be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred in violation of the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. The Warrantholder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledges and agrees that the Warrant (including any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise thereof) was issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirement of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and such Warrantholder may not be able to sell or transfer any Warrant Shares in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration thereunder. This Warrant will not be subject to any restrictions on transfer other than those under applicable securities laws. SECTION 5. Duration and Exercise of Warrant. (a) This Warrant shall not be exercisable unless and until: (i) in the case of a Subsequent Financing, the Requisite Stockholder Approval is obtained or, in the case of any Other Financing, all Other Financing CPs are satisfied; (ii) the filing of the Certificate of Amendment (or such other certificate of amendment effecting any changes to the Charter required in connection with any Other Financing, including those contemplated by subclause (b) in the definition of Other Financing CPs) with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware becomes effective (the time such filing becomes effective, the "Amendment Effective Time"); and (iii) the Company consummates a Subsequent Financing or Other Financing, as applicable (collectively, the "Conditions to Exercise"); provided, however, that if the Conditions to Exercise are satisfied prior to the termination of this Warrant pursuant to Section 18, (A) each Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised at the Exercise Time in accordance with Section 5(b) and (B) the Company shall deliver the Warrant Shares to the Warrantholder in accordance with Section 5(f). For the avoidance of doubt, this Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised in full at the Exercise Time and shall become void and of no value, and may not be exercised, after the Expiration Time. (b) Upon the automatic exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 5(a), in lieu of paying the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrantholder shall be deemed for all purposes hereunder to have authorized

![](exhibit101projectrefuel-030.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3 the Company to withhold from issuance a number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of all Warrants being deemed automatically exercised by the Warrantholder at such time which, when multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Warrant Shares, is equal to the aggregate Exercise Price, and such withheld Warrant Shares shall no longer be issuable under this Warrant (a "Cashless Exercise"). (c) The formula for determining the number of Warrant Shares to be issued in a Cashless Exercise is as follows: X= (A-B) x C A Where: X = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise pursuant to subsection (b). A = the Current Market Price of a Warrant Share on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date upon which the Exercise Time occurs. B = the Exercise Price. C = the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is then being exercised including the withheld Warrant Shares. (d) The number of Warrant Shares to be issued upon such automatic exercise will be determined by the Company using the formula set forth in Section 5(c). (e) Any exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be automatic, irrevocable and shall be deemed to constitute a binding agreement between the Warrantholder and the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms. (f) As soon as practicable after the automatic exercise of this Warrant as set forth in Section 5(a), the Company shall issue, or otherwise deliver, or cause to be issued or delivered, in authorized denominations to or upon the order of the Warrantholder, a book-entry interest in the Warrant Shares registered on the books of the Company's transfer agent. Such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued as of the Exercise Time. SECTION 6. Cancellation of Warrant. Upon the Expiration Time, or if the Company shall purchase or otherwise acquire the Warrant, the Warrant shall be cancelled by the Company and retired. The Company shall cancel any Warrant surrendered for exchange, substitution, transfer or exercise in whole or in part. SECTION 7. Mutilated or Missing Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase an equivalent number of Warrant Shares, but only (a) upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant; (b) upon receipt of an open penalty surety bond holding the Company harmless, if requested by the Company and satisfactory to it; and (c) absent notice to the Company that such Warrant has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser. Applicants for such substitute Warrant shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe and as required by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York. SECTION 8. Reservation of Warrant Shares. Subject to the occurrence of the Amendment Effective Time, for the purpose of enabling the Company to satisfy any obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will, at all times from the Amendment Effective Time through

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5 (c) No adjustment to the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares for this Warrant shall be required hereunder unless such adjustment together with other adjustments carried forward as provided below, would result in an increase or decrease of at least 1% of the applicable Exercise Price or Warrant Shares. No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value of the shares of Common Stock (including pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment) or any other Common Stock Equivalents. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest one-one thousandth (1/1,000th) of one cent ($0.00001) or to the nearest one-one thousandth (1/1,000th) of a share, as the case may be. In no event will the Company adjust the Exercise Price to the extent that the adjustment would reduce the Exercise Price below the par value per share of Common Stock (assuming the occurrence of the Amendment Effective Time). In such case, the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted as if the Exercise Price had been adjusted as otherwise set forth in this Section 9(c) and each Warrant Share shall be exercisable for the par value per Warrant Share (assuming the occurrence of the Amendment Effective Time). SECTION 10. No Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a Warrant to purchase fractions of Warrant Shares, or to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant, or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Warrant Shares and no Cash shall be distributed in lieu of such fractional shares or rights. If more than one Warrant shall be deemed exercised by the same Warrantholder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of such Warrants. If any fraction of a share would, except for the provisions of this Section 10, be issuable on the exercise of the Warrant (or specified portion thereof), as applicable, such share shall be rounded to the next higher whole number. SECTION 11. Redemption. The Warrant shall not be redeemable by the Company or any other Person. SECTION 12. Notices to the Warrantholder. Upon any adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company, within 10 Business Days thereafter, shall give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at its address appearing on the Warrant Register. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 12. If (i) the Company proposes to take any action that would require an adjustment pursuant to Section 9 or (ii) there shall be a dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company (other than in connection with a consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets and business as an entirety), then the Company shall cause written notice of such event to be given to the Warrantholder at its address appearing on the Warrant Register, such giving of notice to be completed at least 10 Business Days prior to the effective date of such action (or the applicable Record Date for such action if earlier). Such notice shall specify the proposed effective date of such action and, if applicable, the Record Date and the material terms of such action. The failure to give the notice required by this Section 12 or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of any action, distribution, right, warrant, dissolution, liquidation or winding up or the vote upon or any other action taken in connection therewith. SECTION 13. Warrantholder Not Deemed a Stockholder by Virtue of this Warrant. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Warrantholder the right to vote or to receive dividends or to participate in any transaction that would give rise to an adjustment under Section 9 or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in respect of the meetings of stockholders or for the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company.

The Company and the Warrantholder may from time to time amend, modify or supplement this Warrant with (and only with) the prior written consent of Warrantholders holding, assuming exercise in full of the Warrants then outstanding, at least a majority of the Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Warrants then outstanding, pursuant to a written amendment or supplement executed by the Company and such Warrantholders; provided, however, that any amendment or supplement to this Warrant that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect any right of a Warrantholder relative to the other Warrantholders shall require the written consent of such holder. In addition, the consent of each Warrantholder affected shall be required for any amendment pursuant to which the Exercise Price would be increased or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants would be decreased (other than pursuant to adjustments provided in this Warrant). Any amendment, modification or waiver effected pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16 will be binding upon all Warrantholders and upon each future Warrantholder and the Company. In the event of any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver, if appropriate, notation thereof will be made on all Warrants thereafter surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. SECTION 17. Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Warrant by or for the benefit of the Company shall bind and inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns hereunder. SECTION 18. Termination. This Warrant shall terminate at the earlier of (i) the Expiration Time and (ii) May 7, 2026. Termination of this Warrant shall not relieve the Company of any of its obligations arising prior to the date of such termination or in connection with the settlement of any Warrant exercised prior to the Expiration Time. The provisions of Section 19 and Section 20 shall survive such termination.

Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as special Delaware counsel to LanzaTech Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), in connection with certain matters of Delaware law relating to (i) Amendment No. 1 (the "SPA Amendment") to the Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of May 7, 2025 (the "SPA") between the Issuer and the Purchasers (as defined in the SPA), and (ii) a draft of the form of Warrant to be entered into between the Issuer and the Warrantholder (as defined therein) (the "Warrant" and together with the SPA Amendment, the "Opinion Documents" and each, individually, an "Opinion Document"). Except where otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given them in the Warrant. In rendering this opinion, we have examined and relied upon copies of the following documents in the forms provided to us: the Opinion Documents; the SPA; the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer (under its previous name of AMCI Acquisition Corp. II) as filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "State Office") on February 8, 2023, as amended by the Certificate of Amendment thereto filed in the State Office on October 3, 2024 (as so amended, the "Issuer Certificate"); the Bylaws of the Issuer (the "Issuer Bylaws" and together with the Issuer Certificate, the "Issuer Governing Documents"); certain resolutions set forth in the Unanimous Written Consent of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the "Board of Directors") adopted June 1, 2025 (the "Resolutions"); the Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock of the Issuer filed in the State Office on May 7, 2025, as amended through filings in the State Office as of the date hereof (the "Certificate of Designation" and together with the Opinion Documents, the "Documents"); and a certification of good standing of the Issuer obtained as of a recent date from the State Office. In our examination of the documents, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies or final drafts of documents to be executed, the due completion of each such document prior to execution and the legal capacity of natural persons to

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;complete the execution of documents. We have further assumed for the purposes of this opinion: (i) except to the extent addressed by our opinion in paragraph 1 below, the due formation or organization, valid existence and good standing of each entity that is a signatory to any of the documents reviewed by us under the laws of the jurisdiction of its respective formation or organization; (ii) except to the extent addressed by our opinion in paragraph 2 below, the due adoption, authorization, execution and delivery by each of the parties thereto of the above- referenced documents; (iii) that the application of Delaware law to the Opinion Documents would not be contrary to a fundamental policy of a jurisdiction (other than the State of Delaware) which (a) would be the jurisdiction of applicable law in the absence of an effective choice of law and (b) has a materially greater interest than Delaware in the determination of a particular issue; (iv) except to the extent addressed by our opinion in paragraphs 3 and 4 below, that the Opinion Documents constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of the parties thereto and are enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with their terms; (v) that the Resolutions have been duly adopted; (vi) that the Documents as approved by the Board of Directors were in substantially final form; (vii) that an officer of the Issuer has executed the SPA Amendment, and will execute the Warrant on or prior to May 7, 2026, and has voluntarily and unconditionally transferred possession of an executed counterpart of the SPA Amendment, and will so transfer an executed counterpart of the Warrant on or prior to May 7, 2026, in each case to the other parties thereto with the intent of bringing each such Opinion Document into effect; (viii) that the parties to the Opinion Documents are sophisticated parties and have consulted with legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby and have voluntarily executed the same on an informed basis and in the absence of fraud and duress; (ix) that the transactions contemplated by the Opinion Documents do not and will not constitute a "business combination" (as defined in Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")) with an unapproved "interested stockholder" (as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) of the Issuer; (x) that the Issuer is not engaged in any operations or business prohibited under the DGCL, including conferring academic degrees or banking; (xi) that, as contractually agreed in the Warrant, prior to the issuance of any Warrant Shares, the Conditions to Exercise (including the occurrence of the Amendment Effective Time) will be satisfied; (xii) that the number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the "Common Stock") authorized and unissued as of the time of the exercise of the Warrant pursuant to its terms that have not been previously subscribed for, reserved or otherwise committed to be issued, will be sufficient to permit the issuance of the maximum number of Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of such Warrant; (xiii) that the Issuer shall give a notice in the manner required by Sections 151(f) and 202 of the DGCL in connection with the issuance of the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrant; and (xiv) that as of the date hereof, there is only one Holder (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), and that at a duly convened meeting of the Holder, such Holder has approved the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of the Opinion Documents; and (xv) that the documents reviewed by us are in full force and effect, express the entire understanding of the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and have not been supplemented, amended or otherwise modified, except as herein referenced. We note that we have been retained to act as special Delaware counsel in connection with this opinion. We are not regular counsel to the Issuer, and we are not generally informed as to its business affairs. We have not reviewed any documents other than those identified herein in connection with this opinion, and we have assumed that there are no documents, facts or circumstances contrary to or inconsistent with the opinions expressed herein. No opinion is expressed herein with respect to the requirements of, or compliance with, federal or state securities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;or blue sky laws, including the Delaware Securities Act, 6 Del. C. § 7301 et seq., which applies to the sale of securities in the State of Delaware. To the extent our opinions in paragraphs 5 and 6 below relate to violations of laws or required consents, approvals, waivers, licenses, authorizations or filings with any governmental authority of the State of Delaware, our opinions relate only to laws of the State of Delaware and required consents, approvals, waivers, licenses, authorizations or filings with any corporate governmental authority of the State of Delaware that are of general application and that, in our experience, are likely to have application to the transactions herein referenced (and not to laws or required consents, approvals, waivers, licenses, authorizations or filings that might be implicated by reason of the specific business activities of the Issuer). As to any facts material to our opinion, other than those assumed, we have relied, without independent investigation, on the above-referenced documents and on the accuracy, as of the date hereof, of the matters therein contained. Based on and subject to the foregoing and to the exceptions and qualifications set forth below, and limited in all respects to matters of Delaware law, it is our opinion that: (i) The Issuer is a corporation, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The Issuer has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Opinion Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of the Opinion Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Issuer. The SPA Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Issuer, insofar as such execution and delivery are governed by Delaware corporate law. The SPA Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms. The Warrant, when duly executed and delivered by the Issuer, will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms, and the Warrant Shares issuable thereunder will, upon due exercise of the Warrant in accordance with its terms, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The execution and delivery of the SPA Amendment and the Warrant by the Issuer and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations thereunder in accordance with the terms of the SPA Amendment or the Warrant, as applicable, will not (a) conflict with or violate any of the terms or provisions of the Issuer Governing Documents or the Certificate of Designation or (b) violate any Delaware corporate law (other than state securities or blue sky laws, as to which we express no opinion). No consent, approval, waiver, license or authorization or other action by or filing with any Delaware corporate governmental authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery by the Issuer of the Opinion Documents to which the Issuer is a party or the performance by the Issuer of its obligations thereunder other than the Certificate of Amendment (as defined in the SPA).

The opinions herein expressed are intended solely for the benefit of the addressee hereof in connection with the matters contemplated hereby and may not be disclosed to, or relied upon by, any other person or entity or for any other purpose without our prior written consent. This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and is based on our understandings and assumptions as to present facts and our review of the above-referenced documents and the application of the Delaware law as the same exist on the date hereof, and we undertake no duty to update or supplement this opinion after the date hereof for the benefit of any person or entity with respect to any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in facts or law that may hereafter occur or take effect. Very truly yours, MORRIS, NICHOLS, ARSHT & TUNNELL LLP
