(f/k/a BioFuel Energy Corp.), a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer” or the “Company”), 2805 Dallas Parkway, Suite 400, Plano, Texas 75093, amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 26, 2007, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the Commission on May 4, 2010, Amendment No. 2 filed with the Commission on September 27, 2010, Amendment No. 3 filed with the Commission on September 27, 2010, Amendment No. 4 filed with the Commission on December 17, 2010, Amendment No. 5 filed with the Commission on February 8, 2011, Amendment No. 6 filed with the Commission on April 8, 2011, Amendment No. 7 filed with the Commission on September 6, 2012, Amendment No. 8 filed with the Commission on March 28, 2014, Amendment No. 9 filed with the Commission on June 13, 2014, Amendment No. 10 filed with the Commission on July 16, 2014, Amendment No. 11 filed with the Commission on October 29, 2014, Amendment No. 12 filed with the Commission on July 1, 2015, Amendment No. 13 filed with the Commission on November 16, 2017 and Amendment No. 14 filed with the Commission on July 5, 2018.
 
This Amendment is being filed on behalf of Greenlight Capital, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Greenlight Inc.”), DME Advisors GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Advisors GP”), DME Advisors, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership of which Advisors GP is the general partner (“Advisors”), DME Capital Management, LP, a Delaware limited partnership of which Advisors GP is the general partner (“DME CM”), and Mr. David Einhorn (the “Principal” and, together with Greenlight Inc., Advisors GP, Advisors and DME CM, the “Reporting Persons”).  Mr. Einhorn is the principal of each of Greenlight Inc., Advisors GP, Advisors and DME CM.

This Amendment is being filed to amend and supplement Items, 4, 5, 6 and 7 as follows:
 
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction
 
On January 25, 2021, in connection with a registered public secondary offering (the “Secondary Offering”) of shares of Common Stock, Greenlight entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the “Underwriters”) and the Company.  Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, Greenlight agreed to sell an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the Underwriters at a price of $20.55 per share (the “Per Share Price”).  Greenlight also granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 900,000 additional shares of Common Stock at the Per Share Price.  The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, covenants and closing conditions, including that Greenlight enter into a lock-up agreement (the “Lock-up Agreement”) restricting Greenlight’s ability to sell or otherwise transfer shares of Common Stock during the 90-day period following the closing of the Secondary Offering.  The Secondary Offering closed on January 27, 2021.  In addition, on January 25, 2021, Greenlight sold an aggregate of 850,000 shares of Common Stock to the Sub-Account at the same Per Share Price in a simultaneous registered public offering (the “Simultaneous Offering”).  The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement and Lock-up Agreement included therein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference to Item 7.

(c) On January 25, 2021, in connection with the Secondary Offering described in Item 4, Greenlight agreed to sell an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the Underwriters at the Per Share Price.  The Secondary Offering closed on January 27, 2021.  Of the shares sold in the Secondary Offering, 3,318,684 shares were sold for the account of GCOP, Ltd., 2,022,080 shares were sold for the account of GCOM and 659,236 shares were sold for the account of SILP.  On January 25, 2021, in connection with the Simultaneous Offering described in Item 4, Greenlight also sold an aggregate of 850,000 shares of Common Stock to the Sub-Account at the Per Share Price.
