1 Legal compositions and applications Cooperation-Universities & Tech centers View of Thyssenkrupp Ricardo Santoro Cardoso, São Paulo Developing the future.

2 Agenda 1 ThyssenKrupp - Highlights 2 Innovation Relationship of Science&Technology, Market&Society and Research and Development 3 Cooperation with Universities & STI Function for TK 4 Types of coopetation and characteritics 5 Conclusion 2 Developing the future.

3 The Company in the World ThyssenKrupp AG Business Areas 41,3 billion In sales turnover 160 thousand employees Components Technology Elevator Technology Industrial Solutions Material Services Steel Europe Steel Americas 6.2 b 6.4 b 6.3 b 13.7 b 8.9 b 2.1 b FY 2013/14 3 Developing the future.

4 Leading Engineering Competence Supports Better for More Drives Demand ( more ) Business opportunities Demand ( better ) Restrictions Demography More consumer and capital goods Leading Reduced C0 2 emissions, renewable energies Climate change engineering Urbanization More infrastructure and buildings competence in Material, Efficient infrastructure and processes Finite resources Globalization More resource and energy use Mechanical Plant Efficient resources and energy use, alternatives energies Political framework Clear Company Positioning based on strengths of ThyssenKrupp 4 Developing the future.

5 Excellence in Technology Some sustainable and intelligent concepts Projeto BioTFuel Parceria com a TOTAL na França para produção de Diesel e Querosene de aviação a partir de resíduos de biomassa 60% weight reduction at component level CRP steering column Wireless Elevator Speeding IWalk Light Weight Steering Column Biofuel for Aviation The next generation of elevators uses magnetic levitation to travel up, down and side-to-side at speed. The system makes possible to reduce up to 50% elevator space in the buildings One walkway, two speeds. This system allows the passenger arrives at destination three times faster, with the highest safety requirements for rapid transportation, in addition to the energy savings by drive system Manufactured with carbon fiber reinforced series, aims 60% weight reduction at the component level, improving performance and reducing emissions regulations Technology for the production of liquid fuels, such as petrol, diesel and kerosene for aviation, from biomass. Clean energy from 100% renewable resources to replace fossil fuels 5 Developing the future.

6 ThyssenKrupp is in the List of Top 50 Smartest Companies according to MIT Technology Review 50 Smartest Companies Developing the future.

7 Developing the future, today. More products & services. Better solutions Susteinable Automotive Components Lighter and with better conditions for lubrication, reduce fuel consumption in cars and reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere Regenerative System for Elevators Technology capable of reducing up to 30% of energy consumption in buildings, using the power generated by elevator own engine Tecnology in Renewable Energy Engineering in bearings for the generation of wind energy Efficiency in Engineering Crushing system completely mobile which eliminates the use of trucks in mining and prevents the emission of approximately one tonne of carbon dioxide for each thousand tonnes of raw material transported 7 Developing the future.

8 The Company in Brazil In figures More than R$ 8 billion in sales 12 thousand employees 4 R&D centers 12 production sites 68 regional offices Corporate office P&D centers Regional offices Production sites FY 2013/14. Descontinued operations not included 8 Developing the future.

9 Innovation Relationship - Science,Technology, Market&Society and research and Development Innovation Universities and STI Science and Technology Research and Development Markt and Society Companies and Governments People and customers 9 Developing the future.

10 Universities & STI Main Products Generation of Technology and Science Universities and STI Research programs in cooperation with industries Special services for Industries Creation of knowledge (Papers, Patents, Regulations) Creation of scientifc /technical work force for internal and external development 10 Developing the future.

11 Cooperation with Universities & STI Function for TK Development and analysis of topic from particular interest with scientific approach Creation of technical work force on topics related to the interest of ThyssenKrupp in the Universities(Researchers, MsC, PhD) Creation of technical work force for contracting (when possible) ThyssenKrupp (Corporate) Consulting for ThyssenKrupp Connect to scientific community to ThyssenKrupp aiming identification of future technologies with added value Identify potential topics for TechCenter Strategy 11 Developing the future.

12 TechCenters: Incubators to develop new technologies and businesses with cross BA-relevance or without direct BA-/OU-link Project House: TK TechCenter Generic Concept Identification of relevant technologies Group wide expert discussions and studies Maturity of technology (S-curve, Hype cycle, ) Market size and Competition TK fit Ramp-up (3-6 months) Project Work (24-48 months) Business Integration (3-6 months) Close collaboration with partners and universities Example TechCenter Carbon Composites KIT Workshops CFRP KIT Focus Study 2010/ / / ~2015 tbd 12 Developing the future.

13 Cooperation Programs Categories Example of Business Unit Forged Machined Components Category Business Unit (E.g. TK-FG) Technology Transfer Partner Remarks 1 Services Ask for a regular service not applied Service execution supplier know-how paid private, university, etc 2.Services / Dev. 3.Development 4.1.Dev. / Cooperation 4.2.Dev. / Cooperation Ask for an outstanding service participate with specific know-how Ask for an outstanding development Participate with specific know-how Search for an specific tech. target Participate with specific know-how Ask for an specific tech. target Participate with specific know-how 5 Cooperation Search for talented students Propose tech. topics of interest only theoretical knowledge Share specific know-how Develop specific fixtures Share specific know-how develop specific fixtures propose specific knowhow develop specific device/machine executes high-tech service develop specific fixtures generate tech. knowledge publish tech. papers NDA applies Contract for resources Results => services NDA applies Contract for resources Results=>test bench/equipment Contract for IP NDA applies Contract for resources Results=>Product/process Contract for IP NDA applies Contract for resources Results =>Product/process Contract for IP NDA applies Sponsorship by TK-FG Result is a paper, thesis (master/phd) 13 Developing the future.

14 Conclusion Interaction between companies and universities-research centers is very important and plays special role for TK, enabling future technology developments (Access and Assess of future) Types(Categories) of cooperation must be internally analyzed/considered, in order to organize the projects and negotiation with external entities. Legal aspects, like NDA, contracts, licenses and commercialization rights must be kept in radar according to type of cooperation. In general, discussions must be kept in a constructive way. 14 Developing the future.
