Analyst / Investor Presentation

Quirin Champions Conference June 18, 2020

Responding to the Pandemic

From the middle of March, significant effects on

• current series deliveries (e.g. import stop of battery systems for trolley buses in Italy)
• material procurement due to blocked supply chains
• customer call-offs (e.g. intralogistics)
• R&D projects and planned series starts due to order cancellations

Voltabox responded by applying for short-time work for large parts of the Group

Almost complete stoppage of production at the Delbrück and Austin, Texas, plants (only few service activities in production)

Significant impact on forecast revenue for 2020; earnings affected due to underfunding of cost base (but according to conservative planning no liquidity issues)

Status Quo in Operational Business

End of short-time work at the end of June

Gradual ramp-up of production

Increasing signals from customers to resume supplies

Coping with the effects of the crisis by using own resources – no burdening of the balance sheet and liability structure through KfW loans

Time used for setting up the organization autonomously

Preparations Done for the Post-Pandemic Era

Fundamental reorganisation of the Group!

Comprehensive Adjustments of Balance Sheet

Reason

Significantly deteriorated business prospects in various markets, due in part to the COVID 19 pandemic; increasingly significant difference between equity and market capitalization

Effect

• Maximum transparency for capital market and potential future (anchor) shareholders
• Maximum reduction of balance sheet risks

Preparations Done for the Post-Pandemic Era

• Improvements through omissions of cost-intensive materials and components - e.g. reduction of screws or of cross sections of aluminium strands
• Optimization of the module concepts according to the requirements of the applications – e.g. cheaper housings
• New housing concepts can still be produced on existing lines > time advantage in assembly due to fewer components
• Standardization, where possible, expanded e.g. battery management systems
• Adjustment of charging cycles according to application

Enlargement of the modular kit and expansion of the solution portfolio, more strongly oriented towards customer needs, cost leadership enabled!

Sales Process Initiated by the Majority Owner

• Options currently being weighed by the majority shareholder paragon range from a partial sale to the sale of the entire stake
• Ever fewer overlaps between both company's business models
• Preferred buyer: well-capitalized, strategically interested owner(s) that has (have) a strong international footprint (e.g. industrial company) in order to scale the business of Voltabox globally and thus exploit its full growth potential
• Current status: several interested companies, numerous conducted preliminary talks, capital market recovery bolsters the expected achievement of our sales targets

Distinguished Cell Expertise in the Group

Cell Supplier Base (Selection)

Dr. Fabian Wohde Cell Expert at Voltabox

"

On paper, lithium-ion technology has been convincing right from the start. However, after we have installed numerous Li-Ion-based systems in the market over the past few months, the strengths of the cell chemistries we use are also evident in practice. Lithium-ion battery systems impress with their flexibility, high charging rates, long service life and massive advantages in terms of total cost of ownership. "
