  3. The LanzaTech Process Novel gas fermentation technology captures CO-rich gases and converts the carbon to fuels and chemicals Gas feed stream Gas reception Compression Fermentation Recovery Producttank • Gases are sole source of energy and carbon • Production of fuels and chemicals • Potential to make material impact on the future energy pool (>10s of billions of gallons per year) • Completely outside of the food value chain • Biofuel, carbon capture and energy efficiency technology solution 3

  4. Potential for Significant Impact Ethanol PotentialFrom LanzaTech Process 1.4 billiontons steel/yrGlobally 30 billion gal/yr Steel Industry Biomass 1.3 billiontons/yr potential in US 190 billion gal/yr • Access to opportunity and on purpose derived gas streams • Potential to make significant impact on the fuel pool • No impact on food production 4

  5. A Fast Path to Commercialization Commercial Pilot Demonstration 1Q2013 4Q2011 2008 • 15,000 gallons ethanol per year • BlueScope steel mill, NZ • Operating since 2008 • 100,000 gallons ethanol per year • Baosteel • March 27: Ground breaking • > 50 million gallons per year • Baosteel Commercial Production by 2013 5

  6. Energy Efficient Carbon Capture 30% of Carbon in BOF gas is Captured as Ethanol • LanzaTech process produces valuable products with a higher energy efficiency than a power plant • LanzaTech captures 30% of the carbon from BOF (Basic Oxygen Furnace) gas as valuable hydrocarbons *Reference: DOE/NETL-2007/1281 “Cost and Performance Baseline for Fossil Energy Plants” Redefining Carbon Capture 6

  7. LanzaTech Gas to Liquid Platform H2 CO2 CO2 Resources CO Power Syngas: Biomass, Coal, Methane COG, Chemical Industrial CO Native Engineering ControlChemistry Customized Catalysts Synthetic H2 • C2 • Ethanol • Acetic acid • Other • PHB • ……. • C5 • Isoprene • C4 • BDO • n-Butanol • i-Butanol • Succinic acid • C3 • i-propanol • acetone Product Suite Thermochemical Approaches Hydrocarbon Fuels (diesel, jet, gasoline) Product Suite Chemicals ChemicalIntermediates Olefins 7

  8. Integrated Hydrocarbon Fuels Process * Gas Feed Stream Recovery Gas Reception Fermentation Jet Gasoline Rectification Diesel Chemical Synthesis AlcoholMixture 15% 50% 35% • Gas Feed Stream • CO from Industrial Waste Gases • Syngas from Biomass, MSW, Reformed Natural Gas or Other Sources Novel Route to Drop in Hydrocarbon Fuels Key Enabler: Price and Availability of Alcohol

  9. LT–SB SPK Sample Properties Key Properties Confirmed

  10. Greenhouse Gas Emissions • RSB Criterion 3c - Lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions of a biofuel blend, calculated by using the RSB lifecycle methodology, shall be on average 50% lower than the applicable fossil fuel baseline. • LanzaTech Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF ) Gas Process ~60% reduction • Based on LCA analyses performed by Michigan Technological University and Tsinghua University relative to petroleum gasoline 160 145 • LanzaTech Case 1: Steam Generated for Ethanol Recovery • LanzaTech Case 2: Waste Heat from Steel Mill used for Ethanol Recovery 140 131 Life Cycle GHG Emission 120 104 100 gCO2, e/MJ 80 69 62 60 41 40 20 0 Conventional LanzaTech LanzaTech Sweet Corn Cassava Gasoline (Case 1) (Case 2) Sorghum • LanzaTech Waste Biomass Syngas Process - In progress • Based on a custom pathway in the GREET model, initial results have shown >80% GHG reduction relative to petroleum gasoline GHG footprint is <50% of the footprint of producing petroleum fuels

  11. Fuel Readiness Level: SwedishBiofuels Alcohols and Process FRL 6

  12. A Hybrid Catalytic Route toFuels from Biomass Syngas Project Objective: develop a cost-effective hybrid conversion technology for catalytic upgrading of biomass-derived syngas to jet fuel and chemicals to meet the price, quality and environmental requirements of the aviation industry EtOH Catalysis Wood Gasoline Gasification & Syngas Conditioning Fermentation& AlcoholRecovery Jet Fuel Stover 2,3BD Diesel Catalysis Switchgrass Butadiene MEK Integration System Integration, Optimization and Analysis Improve Economics and Process Sustainability

  13. Rapid Deployment Minimal competition for industrial waste gases - only alternatives are cogen or heating Steel Multiple plants per partner Refining Chemicals Coal Biomass In Progress Potential >350 M gal/yr from existing agreements/MoUs

  14. Global Recognition 2011 • Dr. Sean Simpson was named NZ Entrepreneur Of The Year in the Technology and Emerging Business Category • 2011 Frost & Sullivan Global Green Excellence Award for Technology Innovation in Green Chemistry • Ranked 27 in Hot 30 Renewable Chemicals Companies • Finalist ICIS Innovations Award, Best Innovation by a SME • TiE50 for energy and cleantech • The top 50 represent the best in entrepreneurship – “risk-taking yet pragmatic, visionary but market aware”… • Double Win for LanzaTech • 2011 NZBIO Company of the Year • Cofounder and chief scientist Dr. Sean Simpson won the NZBIO 2011 Young Biotechnologist of the Year Award The global Red Herring Top 100, which recognises LanzaTechas one of the 100 most innovative new technology companies. • Triple Win for LanzaTech • Ranked 38 in Top 100 people in Bioenergy • Ranked 31 in Top 50 Companies in Bioenergy • Technology of the Year Award The Global Cleantech 100 highlights the most promising private clean technology companies around the world. 2010 Ranked among the top 100 private companies in Asia. Ranked among the top 100 private companies globally.

  15. A Sensible Path… Aligns: Waste for Energy Industrial Growth Energy Efficiency Energy Security Allows: To Produce Food For People Land 15

  16. Summary • To meet growing energy demand & stabilize atmospheric CO2 levels - need to diversify fuel pool and introduce >30% drop in zero carbon fuels • The LanzaTech process can capture non-food, waste carbon to produce low cost alcohols • Alcohols produced via the LanzaTech process are an excellent substrate for conversion to drop-in hydrocarbon fuels • Commercial alcohol production rates on raw industrial waste gases has been demonstrated at scale • Compelling volumes of waste gases world wide have potential to make significant impact on the fuel pool • Collaborating with leading conversion partners, industry agencies, and certification bodies to develop sustainable, low cost, integrated hydrocarbon fuels processes from non-food sources 16
