Nodules to Battery Metals TMC's pilot-scale campaign successfully converted seafloor nodules into an alloy containing critical battery metals India’s leading producer of graphite materials for lithium-ion battery anodes with ambitions to enter cathode material production, Epsilon Carbon intends to deliver a pre-feasibility report for a plant in India powered by renewables and with the targeted processing capacity of 1.3 million tonnes per annum of wet nodules Epsilon Carbon expects to draw on The Metals Company’s near-zero solid waste flowsheet developments and pilot plant program results as well as its own operational experience of building greenfield plants in India to establish the pre-feasibility and business case for a nodule processing plant in India Subject to the outcome of the pre-feasibility report and execution of commercial agreements with TMC, Epsilon Carbon intends to finance, engineer, permit, build and operate a commercial scale plant in India to process polymetallic nodules from the NORI-D area of the Clarion Clipperton Zone of the Pacific Ocean NEW YORK, March 17, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TMC, The Metals Company Inc. (Nasdaq: TMC) (“TMC”) today announced that it has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) with Epsilon Carbon Pvt. Ltd. (“Epsilon Carbon”) to complete a pre-feasibility study for a commercial-scale deep-sea nodule processing plant in India with targeted production capacity of more than 30,000 tonnes per annum (TPA) of an intermediate nickel-copper-cobalt matte product used for active cathode material (CAM) for Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) and other nickel-rich cathode chemistries for lithium-ion batteries and more than 750,000 TPA of manganese silicate by-product expected to be used in manganese alloy production for the steel industry (“Project Zero Plant”). TMC and Epsilon Carbon envision a long-term partnership: TMC, through its subsidiaries, intends to supply polymetallic nodules and onshore processing expertise; Epsilon Carbon intends to finance, engineer, permit, build and operate the Project Zero Plant. TMC has shared with Epsilon Carbon the near-zero solid waste processing flowsheet developed together with Canadian technology and engineering firms between 2018 and 2021 and technical results from a pilot plant program completed in 2021 at FLSmidth’s facilities in Whitehall, PA, USA, and at eXpert Processing Solutions’ (XPS) facilities in Sudbury, ON, Canada. Epsilon Carbon intends to deliver a pre-feasibility report (“PFR”) for a plant in India powered by renewables and with the targeted processing capacity of 1.3 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) of wet nodules and production start in time to receive nodules collected from NORI-D area starting around Q4 2024, provided, that TMC’s subsidiary NORI secures an exploitation contract from the International Seabed Authority. It is anticipated that TMC and Epsilon Carbon will enter a binding Heads of Terms for construction and operations of Project Zero Plant by September 30, 2022. TMC and Epsilon Carbon have both agreed not to enter into any binding agreements with third parties for the construction and operation of a processing plant for polymetallic nodules through the earlier of TMC and Epsilon Carbon entering into binding Heads of Terms contemplated in the MoU or March 31, 2023. Gerard Barron, Chairman and CEO of TMC commented: “Over the last three years, we have engaged with many parties and visited plants around the world in search of the right onshore partners. In Epsilon Carbon, we have found a rare mix: a proven operational execution track record in anode materials, a 21st century approach to industrial development grounded in making use of waste products, deep care about safety, environmental and social impacts, and an entrepreneurial ambition to develop cathode precursor materials. We could not be more excited about partnering with the Epsilon Carbon team and the prospect of locating our first plant in India, the world’s largest democracy and home to 20% of the world’s population with robust development-led demand for the raw materials that can be derived from polymetallic nodules. Prime Minister Modi’s allocation last year of $600 million for India’s ‘Deep Ocean Mission and the development of a polymetallic nodule collection system shows the country’s commitment to this new, abundant, secure, lower-cost and lower-ESG-impact potential source of critical metals.” Vikram Handa, founder of Epsilon Carbon, added: “Having developed technology to tap an unconventional source of graphite — a waste stream from steel manufacturing — we are rapidly growing our anode materials’ business in India and establishing a new plant in Finland. Our strategy is to expand into cathode materials by 2024. TMC’s polymetallic nodule resource struck us as a game-changing opportunity to tap another unconventional resource with several intrinsic properties that potentially allow us to develop a cathode precursor materials business with a much lower environmental and social impact. We have started with a PFR for a relatively small-scale plant but we believe that the scale of TMC’s resource has the potential to turn India into a significant supplier of critical minerals for battery and steel industries.” About The Metals Company The Metals Company is an explorer of lower-impact battery metals from seafloor polymetallic nodules, on a dual mission: (1) supply metals for the clean energy transition with the least possible negative environmental and social impact and (2) accelerate the transition to a circular metal economy. The company through its subsidiaries holds exploration and commercial rights to three polymetallic nodule contract areas in the Clarion Clipperton Zone of the Pacific Ocean regulated by the International Seabed Authority and sponsored by the governments of Nauru, Kiribati and the Kingdom of Tonga.

Amazon helps thousands of Singapore-based businesses to sell their products in the Amazon store. Through Amazon Global Selling, Singapore selling partners can export their products to customers around the world on Amazon. Amazon Web Services (AWS) enables thousands of Singapore customers to use the AWS Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region to digitally transform. SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 28 November 2024 - Today, Amazon announced that it has invested more than S$2 billion across its retail and cloud businesses in Singapore in 2023. This includes both capital expenditure such as improvements to existing infrastructures, including fulfilment centers, delivery stations, and data centers, and operating expenditure towards technology, safety, expansion of programs for customers, delivery partners, small and medium businesses and employee compensation. The company’s investment in Singapore supported more than 4,000 indirect jobs in areas like construction, logistics, and other professional services according to third-party consultancy firm Keystone Strategy. In addition, according to a survey conducted by Amazon, Singapore businesses selling on Amazon have created more than 6,000 jobs to support their Amazon-related business activities. In total, Amazon supported more than 10,000 indirect jobs in Singapore in 2023 alone. Amazon’s local investment reflects the company’s continued commitment to create solutions and services that delight Singapore customers and contribute to the growth of Singapore businesses. “Since the start of our operations in Singapore in 2010 and the launch of Amazon.sg in 2019, we’ve been able to invest and grow our presence in the country with the support of our customers and selling partners,” said Peter Li, Director, China & Singapore, International Store, Amazon. “We’re humbled to see our investments unlock growth opportunities for businesses in Singapore and are proud to continue to support Singapore's economy and digitization." Since the launch of Amazon Prime Now in 2017 (now renamed Amazon Fresh) and Amazon.sg in 2019, Amazon has continued to invest in its operations to offer a faster and more convenient shopping experience for Singapore customers. Amazon’s investments have enabled the company to avail same-day and next-day delivery for eligible products to customers in Singapore. In addition, Amazon Prime membership in Singapore offers unlimited access to award-winning movies and TV episodes with Prime Video, and video game benefits with Prime Gaming, access to Prime Day and Prime Big Deals Days, free 2-hour scheduled delivery on groceries with Amazon Fresh, free one-day domestic delivery for eligible items as well as free international delivery with no minimum spending on eligible items. Thousands of Singapore-based businesses - many of which are small and medium-sized enterprises - sell their products in the Amazon store. Through Amazon Global Selling, Singapore selling partners can export their products to customers around the world on Amazon. Amazon continuously invests in tools, services and programs to improve its selling partners’ experience and help them grow their businesses with Amazon. This includes tools leveraging generative artificial intelligence such as the option for selling partners to provide a URL to their own website to easily create high-quality product detail pages on Amazon, freeing up valuable time for other business priorities. In 2023, Amazon launched the “Singapore Cross-border Brand Launchpad” developed together with Enterprise Singapore and the Singapore Business Federation to help over 100 local Singapore micro, small and medium enterprises to launch and scale their brands, and access export opportunities in the United States by 2025. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has been supporting Singapore’s digital transformation ambition by helping Singapore businesses modernize IT and innovate securely at pace since it started operations in Singapore in 2010. Today, thousands of active Singapore customers, such as Grab, Maritime & Port Authority of Singapore, Singlife, and Synapxe, use the AWS Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region to digitally transform. With over 25 years of experience in artificial intelligence (AI), AWS is working with Singapore organizations to develop innovative, industry-first solutions powered by AI and generative AI. Recently, AWS launched its AI flagship program, AWS AI Spring, a multifaceted collaboration with the Singapore Government, public sector organizations, and enterprises to help accelerate the adoption of AI and generative AI in Singapore. Amazon is committed to supporting the communities where it operates. In 2023, as part of its Delivering Smiles program, Amazon Singapore donated $100,000 in cash to 4 local non-profit organizations, including Children’s Wishing Well, Club Rainbow (Singapore), Fei Yue Family Service Centre and Glyph Community, to help children and youths in Singapore better learn, play, and develop in the long-run.

More recently, Amazon and Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) announced a strategic collaboration under the national Digital for Life movement to help advance Singaporeans’ essential digital skills - including safe online shopping and GenAI - through the organization of community workshops. These educational initiatives are led by corporate volunteers from Amazon.sg, Amazon Payments and AWS, supported by IMDA. AWS has trained more than 400,000 people in Singapore on cloud skills since 2017. Amazon is committed to investing and innovating in sustainability across its businesses in Singapore. Amazon has invested in two renewable energy projects in Singapore – a 62 megawatt (MW) solar project with Sunseap, and a 17.6 MW project with Sembcorp. Combined, these projects will generate enough renewable energy to power nearly 20,000 Singaporean homes each year. Amazon is working hard to reduce delivery packaging across its Singapore fulfilment operations. Since 2021, Amazon has increased the number of non-grocery orders sent without added delivery packaging from our Fulfilment Centre to Singapore customers by 80 %. By working closely with brands on their packaging, Amazon is enabling more and more essential items – such as nappies, toilet rolls and bottled drinks – to be delivered to Singaporean homes without additional delivery packaging.
