Clean Fossil Fuel Is Here HY-TEK Bio, LLC 1 Timothy Shaw HY-TEK Bio, LLC

THE TECHNOLOGY - Algae Strain - Bioreactors - Air Injection - Lighting - Nutrient -Each element of our technology has been thoroughly researched and optimized to produce an automated process that: -Grows our strain of algae extremely fast and thick -Produces a high rate of GHG mitigation in a small relative volume of algal culture -Uses far less energy than other methods HY-TEK Bio, LLC 2

THE TECHNOLOGY - Algae strain - Bioreactors - Air Injection - Lighting - Nutrient Our algae is unique in that it can thrive on 100% CO₂ and a wide range of PH It is high in lipid oil and contains other valuable, marketable compounds It’s a fast grower that is indigenous to the Chesapeake Bay (not genetically modified) It consumes large amounts of CO2, NOx and SO2 relative to its mass HY-TEK Bio, LLC 3

THE TECHNOLOGY - Algae strain - Bioreactors - Air Injection - Lighting - Nutrient Our bioreactors are a patent- pending technology made of laminated Mylar with carbon fiber mesh: - Strong and light - 65 lbs. when rolled up - Ship anywhere overnight - Hold 20 ’ (8 Tons) of water - Cost 90% less than stainless - Can be set up in one day - Other uses - water, fuel, food - Made in the USA HY-TEK Bio, LLC 4

THE TECHNOLOGY - Algae strain - Bioreactors - Air Injection - Lighting - Nutrient Our full-floor injection system creates micron-sized bubbles for instant dissolving of the flue gas into the culture; slow rise provides algae time to consume GHGs, and a full tank “fizz” action creates circulation and deep light penetration HY-TEK Bio, LLC 5

THE TECHNOLOGY - Algae strain - Bioreactors - Air Injection - Lighting - Nutrient Our patent-pending LED Grow Light System: - High power focused LED lights - Matched to algae absorption % improvement in growth - 90% less power than regular LEDs - 90% less heat than regular LEDs - Only 250W to light a 20’ bioreactor - Can run off-grid with PV solar - No detrimental light waves HY-TEK Bio, LLC 6

THE TECHNOLOGY - Algae strain - Bioreactors - Air Injection - Lighting - Nutrient We have developed a process to convert chicken manure into a clear liquid that is rich in nitrogen and phosphorus needed for rapid algae growth. This process allows us to use a very inexpensive and readily available nutrient, while helping to resolve an outstanding environmental problem. LOW COST – CLEAR LIQUID NUTRIENT HY-TEK Bio, LLC 7
