  21. Key Features of Rockwood • Experienced and Motivated Management Team • Current team has been in place since 2001 • Built Rockwood from $650 million/year in 2001 to $3.4 billion in 2008 • Management owns 6% of the company

  22. Current installed electric generating capacity is sufficient to support conversion of all cars to EV or PHEV The US could save almost 7.5 million barrels of oil a day with an EV/PHEV strategy This shift would reduce US dependence on oil from the Middle East—eliminating a major security issue and providing economic and environmental benefits All-electric (EV) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

  23. To convert on a large scale to practical EVs and PHEVs we need increased energy storage capability, i.e., much larger, more efficient Li-ion batteries Li-ion batteries for mobile phones, laptops and other portable electronics are fully developed and commercialized All major players are focused on this technology Key Enabling Technology—Li-ion Batteries

  24. Rockwood believes that EV and PHEV development is a very attractive alternative to address energy independence, environmental and national security issues facing the US Rockwood has the resources and advanced technology to produce the advanced lithium products to achieve the auto industry’s goals There are enough lithium molecules to support the conversion to EV and PHEVs Rockwood’s Strategic Position
