NEXT-GENERATION BATTERIES PROMISE IMPROVEMENTS IN PERFORMANCE, ENERGY DENSITY, SAFETY AND CHARGE TIMES

Current generation of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are nearing their performance limit, modification of anode materials offer the next best opportunity

  • Next-generationbatteries use:
    • Solid-state /Semi-solidor / liquid electrolytes
    • High-contentsilicon or Li-Metal anodes
    • Use conventional or modified cathodes
  • Next generation batteries are all about replacing graphite with a higher energy material (e.g. silicon & lithium)
  • Lithium metal has the highest specific capacity of all anode materials - ~10 x the capacity vs graphite anodes

VALUE PROPOSITION FOR LITHIUM METAL ANODES

  • Lithium metal is considered the 'Holy Grail' of anode materials which enable light weighting of batteries.
  • Our Company offers reliable supply of high-quality lithium metal anodes with industry leading form factor
  • Form Factor width ~900mm, and thickness 2.5-20µ).
  • Our Company's anode technology and vertically integrated capabilities enables the cost efficacy of next- generation batteries with superior performance.
  • Our Company's short term price target is expected to be competitive with graphite anodes + current collector with 2X energy density… resulting in the most cost competitive anode on the market per kwh.

DEMAND GROWTH ACCELERATION TARGETED WITH LI-METAL ANODE COST DISRUPTION

Demand Profile for Anodes

NextGen Battery Customer Need

Next Gen anode materials Si/C or Lithium metal both

require successful scale-up of ultra-thin Lithium foils

1 TWh

Our Company is uniquely positioned to address the cost and performance needs of our customers

  • Leading PVD machine design & CAPEX costs
  • Widest anode form factor in industry - 900 mm vs 300 mm
  • Ability to incorporate SEI layer helps minimize dendrite formation and enhance lifetime of anodes
  • Vertical Integration into metal supply

SUPPLY CHAIN IS CHINA CENTRIC, DOMESTIC SUPPLY CRITICAL TO IRA

  • OEMs require a local supply to optimize and de-risktheir supply chain
  • Expanding domestic manufacturing capacity has become a matter of federal policy. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) requires for 100% of battery components be produced or manufactured in North America
  • LIM is the only player with a scalable North American solution, that can serve the significant and growing supply need
