2 Who Is Protonex? Leading producer of alternative energy solutions for the DoD US Military All branches Far forward positions Tier 1 Austerity Many alternative energy technologies, integrated into simple-to-use, easily deployed systems Solar (portable, many sizes and technologies) Fuel Cells (hydrogen, methanol, propane, hydride, underwater, space) Intelligent Power Management (takes the power you have, makes the power you need) Micro-Grids (small, for forward positions, no technical know-how needed, intelligently combine energy sources) Protonex Proprietary 1

3 Agenda Introduction Austere Power Technologies Power Managers Take What You Have, Make What You Need What Is a Power Manager? Carried, Worn, and Remotely Placed Power Managers Portable Fuel Cells Lightweight, Quiet Power, Why a Fuel Cell? Quiet Portable Power: The M-300, P-250, and J-250 Unmanned Vehicles Austere Commercial Applications Stationary Mobile Protonex Proprietary 2

5 Do You Need Protonex Technology? Our customers typically come to us when: They are frustrated by the need to carry and attach multiple battery types, sizes, and voltages to power their suite of equipment. They are annoyed at the tangle of adapters, chargers, and proprietary single-function power devices they must deploy. They are concerned that they must visit remote locations time after time to renew fuel supplies or maintain power generation equipment. Their long-duration energy source is too loud, too heavy, and requires too much maintenance, costing them too much money. Protonex Proprietary 4

6 Protonex Power Managers: Taking the Energy You Have Making the Power You Need

7 So Exactly What Is A Power Manager? Power Universalizer Any Energy Source: AC Grid DC Vehicles Solar Wind Fuel Cell Scavenged Energy Any Destination: Charge any battery Power any portable equipment Protonex Proprietary 6

8 Fuel Cells: Quiet, Long Duration Remote Power M 300, P 250, D 250

9 COMPELLING FUEL CELL BENEFITS Sub Kilowatt vs. GENERATORS vs. BATTERIES Provides attractive alternative to operating conventional generators or main engines Scalable JP 8 generators under 1kW do not exist Quieter near silent operation 100X quieter than Honda generator Virtually no vibration Lighter Hybridization allows lower power fuel cell More Efficient Less fuel, less waste heat Cleaner low emission i profile, minimal i odor Enables indoor operation Rechargeables Fuel cell systems complement and extend functionality Hybridized bidi dwith installed battery systems Clean, quiet duration extension Portable charging method for off grid batteries Reduces number of batteries required in many applications Non Rechargeables will be replaced by fuel cells in certain military applications Duration: 2 to 4x longer Mission Weight: 2 to 4x lighter Energy Density: superior Lower Cost of ownership Better Safety Profile SUB KILOWATT PORTABLE APPICATIONS ARE AN EXCELLENT FIT FOR FUEL CELLS AND ARE WIDELY EXPECTED TO DEPLOY FIRST Protonex Proprietary 8
