The three use categories will be configured as follows, forming the backbone of three business lines:

HelioHeat - The production of heat or steam for use in industrial processes will be enabled by the baseline system.

HelioPower - With the baseline system as the foundation, the addition of a turbine generator system will then enable power generation.

HelioFuel - Building on the Power system described above, hydrogen fuel production will be enabled by further adding an electrolyzer system to the baseline system.

For each of the three above solutions, we are offering multiple support models to customers looking to deploy Heliogen's technology:

•Contracting with owner-operators to build turnkey facilities that deploy Heliogen's technology (Heliogen will contract with engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") partners for constructing the facility);

•Selling heliostats (and associated software control systems) to owner-operators and/or EPC contractors;

•Providing asset maintenance support services during operation, for completed facilities that use Heliogen's technology; and

•Providing project development support services to help customers advance readiness to break ground in advance of final investment decisions.

In the future, we will also be prepared to offer Heliogen's IP through a licensing model to third parties interested in manufacturing and installing the hardware.
