1 A Private Commercial Space Company

2 Outline Who We Are The Technology The Next Step

3 Excalibur Almaz was formed to revolutionize the spaceflight industry through regular manned and unmanned flights to orbit Excalibur Almaz is positioning itself to become the first private F company to offer routine orbital spaceflights Excalibur Almaz is a private, international space exploration company formed in 2005 The company was created to provide routine, affordable access to and from space for customers around the globe Using updated and modernized proven Russian legacy space systems and other state of the art technology, EA will offer transportation for purposes of exploration, research, and science 3

4 EA consists of top executives in the aerospace, business and financial industries Executive Profiles Art Dula CEO & Founder 30+ years as an attorney specializing in aerospace Founder of Spacehab, Inc. Director and President of Space Commerce Corporation ISU board member Valery Tokarev Cosmonaut Consultant 20+ years in aerospace Commander of the Soyuz and ISS Two Spaceflight Mission totaling 200+ days in space J. Buckner Hightower Executive Vice President Worked in Soviet Union and Russian Federation since years of experience in capital formation and financial consulting ISU board member Vladimir Titov General Director Russia Record setting 387 days in space Trained on the Almaz capsule Former Director of Space and Communications for the Boeing Company in Russia

5 EA s global reach offers widespread access to key customers and partners enabling stream-lined operations Excalibur Almaz Ltd. Isle of Man, UK Excalibur Almaz USA Houston, TX Excalibur Almaz USA Tallahassee, FL Excalibur KK Tokyo, Japan Space Estafetta Moscow, Russia 5

6 Outline Who We Are The Technology The Next Step

7 The EA Space System elements are a mixture of proven and state of the art technology Reusable Re-entry Vehicle (Orbital Configuration) Service Module (Tourist Configuration) Service Module (Cargo Configuration) 7

8 The Almaz Spacecraft Developed by NPO Machinostroyenia Program has flown 10 times (3 reentry vehicle reuses) NPOM assessments indicate multiple reuse capability EA currently owns 4 reentry vehicles 8

9 Almaz Reentry Vehicle Tourist Configuration Crew Size: 3 On-orbit Mass Estimate: ~4 metric tonnes (without escape system) Designed for assured safe reentry proven on multiple space flights and extensive ground testing Currently the only reusable spacecraft in existence besides the U.S. space shuttle 9

10 Service Module Tourist Version 14.2m 9.9m Planned duration onorbit ~ 5 days Mass target 2 Metric Tonnes Design goal to use an existing launch vehicle adaptor 10

11 Service Module Tourist Version 11

12 Service Module Cargo Concept Planned duration onorbit ~5 days maximum free flight, up to one month attached to a Space Station Mass target 3-4 Metric Tonnes dependent on Cargo load Design goal to use an existing launch vehicle adaptor 12

13 Service Module Cargo Concept Original Almaz System (shown in on-orbit configuration prior to dock to the Salyut Space Station) Capsule System Service/Habitation Module Equivalent (Included propulsion) Cargo Concept Legacy Capsule System (delete crew provisions and escape tower, update avionics, add simple ECLSS and Passive Common Berthing Mechanism) Service Module with Propulsion/Attitude Control The system proposed is a de-evolution of the original Almaz TKS system. Provisions for crew are removed, ECLSS simplified, state of the art Avionics, propulsion/attitude control and rendezvous system based on proven technology 13

14 Outline Who We Are The Technology The Next Step
