13. 13 FSS Update FSS Questions 2. What is the current ROI and has it affected the old DAR thus they cannot reorder more machines or have other impacts besides money issues? ● Declining volume does impact the savings potential  Program expectation of 280,500 pieces per day ● Increasing the number of runs decreases number of pieces that can be processed daily  Lower throughput at lower run volumes / fixed changeover times - closer to 255,000 pieces per day ● Phase 1 technology designed for larger volumes ● Technology solutions to gain back efficiencies are in review ● Achieving savings today beyond sequencing flats— capturing space & redeploying vehicles ● Limited capital funds available for new technology

14. 14 FSS Update FSS Questions 3. Is there money allocated for future machines? If so, what does Phase II deployment look like in terms of facilities to be placed at (type of facility in terms of volume) and timeline? ● Phase 1 FSS satisfies only 1/4  1/3 of national flats sequencing opportunity ● Additional savings opportunity exists for expanding beyond Phase 1 ● Delivery point sequencing (100%) is a fundamental strategy of the “Delivery of the Future” vision ● Maximum effectiveness / efficiency achieved when sequencing process housed in same facility as upstream bundle and flats sorting operations

15. 15 FSS Update FSS Questions 4. What is the future strategy of the USPS in terms of FLAT mail overall, which includes all FLAT machines and deployments? ● Optimize savings potential for Phase 1 ● Extend flats sequencing beyond Phase 1 ● Bypass bundle distribution ● Automate flat mail preparation ● Create critical mass ● Improve utilization & efficiencies of AFSM 100s
