PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-Q, 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Capstone Green Energy Corporation (the “Company”) is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”), without unreasonable effort and expense. The Company needs additional time as a result of the following:
| ● | The Company is still in the process of compiling required information to complete the Annual Report and Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), its independent registered public accounting firm, requires additional time to complete its audit of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2022 to be incorporated in the Annual Report, which includes, but is not limited to, completing its procedures pertaining to the Company’s analysis regarding the collectability of certain customer accounts receivable and auditing the Company’s analysis of its ability to continue as a going concern as it relates to the Goldman Sachs waiver and amendment as described below. |
| ● | The Company expects that its financial results for the year ended March 31, 2022 will result in the Company being in violation of certain of its financial covenants contained in its Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement, as amended (the “NPA”), with Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P. (“Goldman”). To address those defaults, the Company has been working with Goldman to enter into a waiver and amendment to the NPA, which has consumed a significant amount of the Company’s finance and accounting personnel’s time. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into a waiver and amendment, and such waiver and amendment will likely impose additional burdens on the Company. |
The Company anticipates that it will file the Annual Report no later than the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed filing date (the “Extension Period”).
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 12b-25 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable United States securities laws. These forward looking statements include statements regarding the Company’s expectation to file the Form 10-K within the Extension Period and the completion of activities necessary to permit such filing within the Extension Period, including finalizing a waiver and amendment with Goldman.

Except as expressly required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, changed circumstances or future events or for any other reason.
