The Agilyx System has Large Addressable
Markets through Multiple Pathways
Pathways from Plastic to Product

Agilyx’s pathways address large, global markets where a sustainable end-of-life solution is
required for waste plastic. Our plastics pathways are circular, meaning plastics can be
reused again and again for new products.

Globally, the chemicals and fuels markets exceed $2 trillion, of which some $180 billion of
market demand could be satisfied by sustainable, low-carbon, cost-competitive products
made from waste plastic.

Drivers and Assumptions Revenue Estimates ($M) Operating Income Estimates ($M)
The pro forma projections through 2023 show our Base (dark green) and Upside
(light green) scenarios, driven by the following assumptions:
Projects Developed: Both scenarios project 12 facilities, based on the our current
development pipeline
Project Capacity: Projects range in capacity from 10 to 1,000+ tons per day of
processing capacity, with expected phased capacity expansions over time
Differences Between Scenarios: The Upside scenario assumes projects come
online sooner and with larger capacities
Multiple Streams of Revenue: Agilyx receives license fees, royalties, equipment
revenue, and joint venture revenue in both scenarios

Over 15 years of extensive investment, R&D, and operational commitment culminate in the Gen 7 continuous processing
& modular system.

Gen 1: 18-hour cycle, no cartridge Gen 2: 12-hour cycle, suspended candles Gen 3: 6.5 hour cycle, cartridge Gen 4: 5.25 hour cycle

Gen 5: semi-batch production Gen 6: continuous processing: plastic-to-oil Gen 7: polystyrene to monomer

Introducing Cyclyx, An Agilyx Initiative
Agilyx has deep expertise in feedstock management and processing and has created Cyclyx, a syndicated supply chain system, to
take that expertise industry-wide.

Cyclyx is creating an ecosystem that efficiently recovers waste plastic and


enables its reuse through circular pathways and lower carbon conversion

Cyclyx will act as a co-operative accruing the benefits to its members

Cyclyx: What We Do
1 We Manage and Process Plastic Wastes at Source 2 We Provide Custom Feedstock Blends for New Products

Waste
Sources
Processed Inventory

Processed Inventory
Customized Polymerrecipes

• > 80% of waste sources will have different composite chemical characterizations • Some product specs need much tighter control over feedstock recipes and quality than others
• Within each source, material will need to be preprocessed to create further differentiated • The sources of feedstock can change dramatically while maintaining the recipe tolerances
small batch feedstocks • The sophisticated inventory mgmt. allows for a distributed model to be maintained efficiently
• Seasonal and consumer variations will create further differences between sources
• Material then needs to be processed as an ingredient not as a final composite feed
