Slide 3

Executive Summary – the Challenge/Headwinds confidential

NEEDED: Drop-in, certified fuel requiring no engine or infrastructure modifications; requires no subsidies; is market

competitive; does not compete with crops/farmland

Fuel currently derived from expensive, price volatile petroleum

Petroleum is a carbon heavy source of energy

Jet crack and ULSD spreads are widening

CO2 reduction schemes not achievable without biofuels

Unstable Supply Chains for Crude

GTL and CTL still carbon intensive

Jets can not switch to non-liquid sources of energy

Market is looking for truly sustainable solutions at unsubsidized market prices

NEEDED: ultra low sulphur fuels
