Inc. (referred to herein as &#147;FuelCell&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;) completed its previously announced sale of common stock and warrants. By final agreement, the Company and the institutional investor (the &#147;investor&#148;) agreed that
the transaction would be for the equivalent of 6,400,000 shares of common stock at a per share purchase price of $5.83, the closing bid price of the common stock on July&nbsp;6, 2016, and Series A warrants to purchase 7,680,000 shares of common
stock, in a registered direct offering for gross proceeds of approximately $37.3 million. Net proceeds, after deducting the placement agent fees and other estimated expenses, were approximately $34.7 million. If the investor chooses to execute the
Series A warrants at a future date, the Company will receive additional proceeds at that time. The Company intends to use the proceeds from this offering to support project financing, working capital, and for general corporate purposes. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The transaction consisted of 1,474,000 shares of common stock, 7,680,000 Series A Warrants and 4,926,000 prefunded Series&nbsp;B Warrants. The
Series A warrants have an exercise price of $5.83 per share and are initially exercisable beginning on the date that is six months and one day after the issue date and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the initial exercisability date. The
Series B warrants are fully pre-funded warrants and are immediately exercisable. The Series B warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the issue date. The pre-funded Series B warrants were
offered to the investor, whose purchase of shares of common stock in this offering would otherwise result in the investor, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of FuelCell&#146;s outstanding
common stock following the consummation of this offering. In lieu of the shares of common stock that would result in ownership in excess of 4.99%, the investor purchased the Series&nbsp;B warrants on the closing date of this offering. Such Series B
warrants grant the investor the right to acquire additional shares of FuelCell common stock at a point in time of its choosing within five years of the issue date of the Series&nbsp;B warrants. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The common stock and warrants were offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus dated March&nbsp;11, 2015 and a prospectus supplement dated
July&nbsp;7, 2016, in connection with a takedown from the Company&#146;s effective shelf registration statement on Form&nbsp;S-3 (File No.&nbsp;333-201427) declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March&nbsp;11, 2015. On
July&nbsp;8, 2016, the Company and the investor in this transaction entered into Amendment No.&nbsp;1 to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated July&nbsp;6, 2016 between the Company and the investor. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">J.P. Morgan Securities LLC was the Placement Agent for this registered direct offering by the Company. </P>
