1 Smart Sand De-Energize Buildings by ZaaK Technologies GmbH

2 Trillion KWh Global Electricity Production (By Source) Petroleum Nuclear Natural gas By 2040: 20 Renewables > Coal 15 Coal 10 5 Renewables Source: EIA, 2015 Fly ash (25bt accumulated production by 2040) 2 Confidential Date:

3 Sand Consumption (The Global Problem) Coastal Erosion Sand - rarer than one thinks Countries have illegal Sand mining practices Islands disappearance in Asia Lowering Groundwater Level 3 Confidential Date:

4 The Solution Smart Sand Up to 50% lighter than sand Regular size & shape Ecological & Cost effective Zero impurities Smart Sand is made from fly ash, a waste byproduct from thermal power plants 4 Confidential Date:

5 The Key Target Market Construction: Concrete & Mortar Productions Concrete Tech. Mortar Walls/Panels Plaster Flooring Global Sand Consumption in Concrete & Mortar Productions 27bt 35bt Source : UNEP 2014 (2014) (2030) 1bt = billion tonnes 5 Confidential Date:

6 Standard wall vs Smart Sand wall Standard Wall System Smart Sand Wall System Internal plastering Brick works Recycling Problem Internal plastering (Smart Sand) Brick works (Smart Sand) Recycling Solution Thermal insulating Foam (e.g. Styrofoam) Masonry mortar Thermal insulating plaster (Smart Sand) External plastering Masonry mortar Thermal insulating (Smart Sand) 6 Confidential Date:

7 How Smart Sand De-Energizes Buildings Smart Sand Buildings: Up to 500% Up to 12% Up to 2 times Higher thermal efficiency Lower deadload Longer life Savings of Energy, CO 2 Cement, Steel & CO 2 Cement, Steel & CO 2 7 Confidential Date:

8 Benefits Across Value Chain Power-Plants Building & Construction Industry Savings ($$$) Sustainability Zero or low maintenance for fly ash disposal infrastructures No washing, screening or drying of sand i.e.. Ready to use as it is supplied Energy from heating/cooling buildings Saving critical rivers, beaches and mountains from sand mining No or low fly ash disposal fees High and consistence quality sand material Cement and steel due to structural efficiency of buildings Reducing CO 2 from thermal insulation and structural efficiency of buildings Zero upfront capital cost for new power plants on fly ash disposal infrastructures Round the year supply Fossil fuels while transporting Smart Sand and its building material derives Reducing CO 2 from transporting Smart Sand and its building material derives Assist power plants to meet fly ash disposal compliances Low recycling costs (after buildings demolition) Electricity from pumping/spraying fresh concrete and mortars Resource efficiency by longer life of buildings and lesser natural sand consumption 8 Confidential Date:
