1. Business and Organization

Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc., along with its consolidated operating subsidiary Capstone Green Energy LLC (“Capstone,” “We” or the “Company”) (f/k/a Capstone Turbine International, Inc.) is a provider of customized microgrid solutions, on-site resilient Energy-as-a-Service (“EaaS”) solutions, and on-site energy technology systems focused on helping customers around the globe solve the “Energy Trilemma” of resiliency, sustainability, and affordability. These solutions include stationary distributed power generation applications and distribution networks, including cogeneration (combined heat and power (“CHP”), integrated combined heat and power (“ICHP”), and combined cooling, heat and power (“CCHP”), renewable energy, natural resources, and critical power supply. The Company’s inverter-based technologies solve resiliency by being able to seamlessly connect to the electric grid or be the backbone of a localized microgrid. The Company’s Energy Conversion Products business line is driven by the Company’s industry-leading, highly efficient, low-emission, resilient microturbine energy systems offering scalable solutions in addition to a broad range of customer-tailored solutions. Through the EaaS business line the Company offers build, own, operate and maintain (“BOOM”) as well as energy rental solutions utilizing the Company’s microturbine energy systems. The Company offers comprehensive factory protection plan service contracts that limit life-cycle costs, as well as providing aftermarket spare parts. The Company’s emerging business line is Hydrogen Energy Solutions. Through the Hydrogen Energy Solutions business line, the Company offers customers the ability to run on hydrogen blended fuel source. Because these are still emerging offerings, Hydrogen Energy Solutions revenue has been immaterial to date.

Historically, the business described above was conducted by Capstone Green Energy Corporation, which was organized in 1988 and has been commercially producing its microturbine generators since 1998. In connection with emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases (as defined below), Capstone Green Energy Corporation was reorganized pursuant to the Transaction Support Agreement dated September 28, 2023 by and among the Debtors (as defined below), Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P. and Broad Street Credit Holdings LLC (the “TSA”) and became a privately-held company that continues to own the Retained Assets (as defined below). Capstone Turbine International, Inc., a former wholly owned subsidiary of Capstone Green Energy Corporation, which was incorporated in Delaware on June 10, 2004, became a publicly-traded company and was renamed Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. In addition, Capstone Green Energy LLC (the “Operating Subsidiary”) was formed as a result of the Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). Refer to Note 3— Chapter 11 Proceedings and Emergence for more detail.
