SCHEDULE 13D

Item 1.  Security and Issuer

This statement constitutes Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule 13D relating to the shares of Common Stock, $0.003 par value ("Shares"), issued by Cheniere Energy, Inc. (the "Issuer"), and hereby amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 24, 2015, Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 31, 2015, Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 14, 2015, and Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2015 (collectively, the "Schedule 13D"), to furnish the additional information set forth herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with the following:

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of, in the aggregate, 28,546,241 Shares. The aggregate purchase price paid by the Reporting Persons for the Shares was approximately $1,761.9 million (including commissions and premiums for options to purchase Shares).  The source of funding for the Shares held by the Reporting Persons was the general working capital of the respective purchasers.  The Shares held by the Reporting Persons are held in margin accounts together with other securities. Such margin accounts may from time to time have debit balances. Part of the purchase price of such Shares was obtained through margin borrowing.

Items 5(a) and (b) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended by replacing them in their entirety with the following:

(a) The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 28,546,241 Shares, representing approximately 12.07% of the Issuer's outstanding Shares (based upon the 236,573,788 Shares stated to be outstanding as of July 21, 2015 by the Issuer in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 30, 2015).

(b) High River has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 5,709,249 Shares. Each of Hopper, Barberry and Mr. Icahn has shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Shares.

Each of Icahn Onshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn has shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Shares.

Each of Hopper, Barberry and Mr. Icahn, by virtue of their relationships to High River (as disclosed in Item 2), may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the "Act") the Shares which High River directly beneficially owns. Each of Hopper, Barberry and Mr. Icahn disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes. Each of Icahn Offshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn, by virtue of their relationships to Icahn Master (as disclosed in Item 2), may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act) the Shares which Icahn Master directly beneficially owns. Each of Icahn Offshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes. Each of Icahn Onshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn, by virtue of their relationships to Icahn Partners (as disclosed in Item 2), may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act) the Shares which Icahn Partners directly beneficially owns. Each of Icahn Onshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes.
