LEILAC - Upscaling direct CO2capture technology to large‐scale industrial size

Promising first phase of the LEILAC (Low Emissions Intensity Lime And Cement) research project

LEILAC focuses on direct CO2capture during the decarbonisation process of the limestone through indirect heating of the raw material.

Pilot installation at the Belgian Lixhe plant of HeidelbergCement confirms CO2capture in its purest form (around 90%).

Next steps:

  • Upscaling of the technology to large‐scale industrial size through an EU funded follow‐up project

Complete integration of the LEILAC system into the process of a kiln line

  • Heat supply of the installation with electricity from renewable sources

Disclaimer

Unless otherwise indicated, the financial information provided herein has been prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

This presentation contains forward‐looking statements and information. Forward‐looking statements and information are statements that are not historical facts, related to future, not past, events. They include statements about our believes and expectations and the assumptions underlying them. These statements and information are based on plans, estimates, projections as they are currently available to the management of HeidelbergCement. Forward‐looking statements and information therefore speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.

By their very nature, forward‐looking statements and information are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond HeidelbergCement's control, could cause actual results to defer materially from those that may be expressed or implied by such forward‐looking statement or information. For HeidelbergCement particular uncertainties arise, among others, from changes in general economic and business conditions in Germany, in Europe, in the United States and elsewhere from which we derive a substantial portion of our revenues and in which we hold a substantial portion of our assets; the possibility that prices will decline as result of continued adverse market conditions to a greater extent than currently anticipated by HeidelbergCement's management; developments in the financial markets, including fluctuations in interest and exchange rates, commodity and equity prices, debt prices (credit spreads) and financial assets generally; continued volatility and a further deterioration of capital markets; a worsening in the conditions of the

credit business and, in particular, additional uncertainties arising out of the subprime, financial market and liquidity crises; the outcome of pending investigations and legal proceedings and actions resulting from the findings of these investigations; as well as various other factors.

More detailed information about certain of the risk factors affecting HeidelbergCement is contained throughout this presentation and in HeidelbergCement's financial reports, which are available on the HeidelbergCement website, www.heidelbergcement.com. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the relevant forward‐looking statement or information as expected, anticipated, intended, planned, believed, sought, estimated or projected.

In addition to figures prepared in accordance with IFRS, HeidelbergCement also presents alternative performance measures, including, among others Operating EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EPS, free cash flow and net debt. These alternative performance measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Alternative performance measures are not subject to IFRS or any other generally accepted accounting principles. Other companies may define these terms in different ways.

"Operating EBITDA" definition included in this presentation represents "Result from current operations before depreciation and amortization (RCOBD)" and "Operating Income" represents "Result from current operations (RCO)" lines in the annual and interim reports.
