Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Schedule 13D relates to Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Altus Power, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) and amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 20, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”, and as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The information set forth in Schedule I to this Amendment No. 1 is incorporated herein by reference in this amended Item 2.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following:

On March 31, 2022, pursuant to the terms of the third amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Issuer, an aggregate of 181,125 shares of Class B common stock held by CBRE Acquisition Sponsor, LLC (“Sponsor”) automatically converted into an aggregate of 1,811 shares of Common Stock.

On September 20, 2022, Sponsor submitted to the Issuer a notice of exercise for 9,237,749 Private Placement Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”), representing all of the Private Placement Warrants owned by Sponsor. The exercise was a make-whole exercise on a cashless basis pursuant to the Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) by and between the Issuer and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, following the Issuer’s Notice of Redemption of the Private Placement Warrants. Sponsor received 0.2763 shares of Common Stock and the Issuer withheld 0.7237 shares of Common Stock per Warrant exercised. Pursuant to the Issuer’s Notice of Redemption, Private Placement Warrants remaining unexercised at 5:00 p.m. New York City time October 17, 2022 would cease to be exercisable. Pursuant to such cashless exercise, Sponsor received a total of 2,552,290 shares of Common Stock.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5(a)-(c) of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The information contained in rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and the information set forth or incorporated in Items 3 and 4 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 5.

The percentages of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D are based on 154,718,268 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 29, 2022, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 15, 2022.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 24,554,201 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 15.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding, all of which are held directly by Sponsor. This number excludes shares of Common Stock deliverable in the future upon the automatic conversion of the 1,086,750 shares of Class B common stock held by Sponsor that, as described in Item 3 above, are not convertible within 60 days of the date hereof.

Each of the directors and officers of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock that the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own.


(c) Each of the Reporting Persons reports that neither it, nor to its knowledge, any person named in Item 2 of this Schedule 13D, has effected any transactions in Common Stock during the past 60 days, except as disclosed herein.

(d) No one other than the Reporting Persons has the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any of the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as described in Item 5.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

Item 7 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

G. Warrant Agreement, dated December 10, 2020, by and between the Issuer (f/k/a CBRE Acquisition Holdings, Inc.) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 4.1 of the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on December 15, 2020).
