LanzaJet Applauds Signing into Law the Inflation Reduction Act

LanzaJet

The passage of The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) will catalyze a new domestic Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) industry to decarbonize the aviation sector. LanzaJet, Inc., a leading SAF producer, and technology provider through its proprietary Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) process, applauds the IRA's passage. It recognizes the critical role this legislation will play in enabling aggressive scale-up of SAF, supporting an ecosystem of innovation and transformation in aviation. The aviation industry and the Administration share a joint goal under the SAF Grand Challenge of achieving 3 billion gallons of domestic SAF production by 2030 and 100% SAF by 2050. The IRA provides critical policy tools to scale domestic SAF production to achieve these ambitious goals rapidly. LanzaJet committed in 2021 to fulfilling one-third of the U.S. target by enabling the production of 1 billion gallons of SAF by 2030 using its industry-leading technology, which converts ethanol into drop-in SAF and renewable diesel. The U.S. market provides significant access to low-carbon, sustainable feedstocks and waste sources that can be converted into ethanol and from ethanol into sustainable transportation fuels. "The U.S. is poised to lead the world in the energy transition, and this legislation is a leap forward in advancing energy security, economic development, and climate action. LanzaJet applauds Congress for leading through action, and the inclusion of a performance-based Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) tax credit positions the U.S. to lead in developing a new, global sustainable fuels industry. We look forward to working with Congress and industry leaders to accelerate the transition to clean energy," stated Jimmy Samartzis, CEO of LanzaJet. He continued, "We've been at an inflection point in building this new industry. The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act allows U.S. manufacturing, agriculture, biofuel, oil and gas, aviation, and financial industries to double-down, work together, and advance the development of the sustainable fuels industry." LanzaJet has been a strong advocate and industry leader on the SAF provisions in the IRA, which includes a new performance-based SAF tax credit. This innovative feedstock and technology-neutral credit provides an incentive of up to $1.75/gallon for SAF to achieve a 100% lifecycle GHG reduction that will drive investment in the high-performing SAF technologies like ATJ, which our nation will need to decarbonize the aviation sector. Access to low-cost capital is one of the most significant barriers to the rapid deployment of SAF technologies that have been proven but not yet deployed at a commercial scale. The IRA's $245 million in complementary grant funding for SAF projects will further de-risk investment and speed the deployment of next-generation SAF technologies. LanzaJet's investors and partners recognize and applaud Congress for enacting a suite of foundational and innovative SAF policies that will ensure continued U.S. leadership in the emerging SAF industry and are already working to transform the nation's economy. LanzaJet works in collaboration with its investors, partners, and funders, including LanzaTech, Mitsui & Co, Ltd., Suncor Energy, British Airways, Shell, Microsoft, and All Nippon Airways, to develop the U.S. SAF industry. The IRA's SAF provisions will enable continued advancement and development of projects using LanzaJet's ATJ technology, over 300 million gallons of which have already been publicly announced. Upon President Biden signing this bill into law, LanzaJet's investors reinforced the importance of this legislation in building a new SAF industry and in working together to continue to expand SAF production: LanzaTech's CEO and LanzaJet Board Chair, Jennifer Holmgren, said, "This is a critical time for hard-to-abate sectors, including aviation. By enacting historic sustainable aviation fuel policies within the Inflation Reduction Act, the new tax credits and aviation grant programs will provide critical support for spurring a new domestic industry in the U.S., which can lower emissions, create new American jobs, and improve energy security and show U.S. global leadership." Mr. Toru Iijima, Chief Operating Officer of the Energy Solutions Business Unit of Mitsui & Co., Ltd., stated, "Mitsui welcomes the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act that will further support production and use of SAF in the United States. We look forward to jointly building the SAF industry in strong partnership with LanzaJet and other stakeholders and to contributing to the decarbonization of the aviation industry." Sir David King, world-renowned climate scientist, and technology leader, member of LanzaJet's Board of Directors, and former Chief Scientific Advisor to the United Kingdom and Head of the Government Office for Science, said, "The Inflation Reduction Act is a major step forward for the U.S. in combating climate change, the biggest challenge facing humanity today. The world is already experiencing extreme weather events causing enormous losses and costs. Speaking for the world, this Act is a potentially enormous step forward for the States to join Europe in taking a leading role in managing these threats and growing green economies. The SAF tax credit provisions in the Act and grant funding for SAF projects represent a critical step by the U.S. government in catalyzing the SAF industry to enable decarbonization of the aviation industry." About LanzaJet LanzaJet is a leading sustainable fuels technology company dedicated to accelerating the energy transition by embracing the circular economy. As a Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) technology provider and producer with patented and proprietary technology, LanzaJet is creating an opportunity for future generations by accelerating the deployment of SAF and other clean technologies critical to addressing the climate crisis and transforming the global economy.

Volatus Aerospace Obtains Industry First Special Flight Operations Certificate for Beyond Visual Line of Sight Operations without a Visual Observer

Volatus Aerospace Corp.

Volatus Aerospace Corp. (TSXV: VOL) (OTCQB: VLTTF) ("Volatus" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it is the first company in Canada to receive a Beyond Visual Line Of Sight ("BVLOS") Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC) from Transport Canada to operate a remotely piloted aircraft (RPAS, drone) without a visual observer, using a ground-based optical detect and avoid system. This is a key milestone in the commercialization of the AERIEPORT nesting station and a necessary and important step toward commercializing drone technologies at scale in Canada. Volatus is experienced in BVLOS operations and currently holds authorization to conduct BVLOS training at several locations across Canada. This new SFOC will enable Volatus Aerospace to remotely pilot a Volatus M300 drone integrated with FlightOps’ remote operations software and a CASIA G Optical Detect and Avoid system from IRIS Automation at the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport. “An SFOC is an authorization, usually on a one-time, single location, or risk level basis given by Transport Canada to operate above and beyond current regulations,” explained Richard Podolski, VP of Flight Operations for Volatus Aerospace. “It’s a very well regulated and safety-oriented method for developing new functionality in an industry or accomplishing what nobody thought to write rules for.” “For drone technology to be successful long-term, it needs to improve upon current methods and applications, be affordable, and scalable,” stated Glen Lynch, CEO of Volatus Aerospace. “Today’s achievement has broken through a major barrier and opened the door to commercial opportunities that have only been dreamed about but until today have been just out of reach. Remote operations beyond visual line of sight are now a reality for Volatus. Commercialization begins now.” About Volatus Aerospace: Volatus Aerospace Corp. is a leading provider of integrated drone solutions throughout Canada, the United States, Latin America and most recently in Europe. Operating a vast pilot network, Volatus serves commercial and defense markets with imaging and inspection, security and surveillance, equipment sales and support, training, and design, manufacturing, and R&D. Through its subsidiary Volatus Aviation, Volatus carries on the business of aircraft management, charter sales, and cargo services using piloted, remotely piloted, and autonomous aircraft.

This pairs with their goal of providing healthy living solutions with a current focus on solar energy and air purification. With a large-scale network and a synergistic portfolio of products and services that offer tons of opportunities for cross-selling, SinglePoint reports that it is increasing rapidly and ready for the competition. SinglePoint’s Gamble On A Sustainable Future Could Pay Off Big This Year While the Company has not achieved profitability yet, it’s been using capital raised from stockholders and other sources to fund an acquisition and partnership strategy that is starting to yield results. The Company has acquired five subsidiaries, including Energy Wyze, BOX Pure Air, Direct Solar America, Ecodaptive, and Boston Solar. In addition, the Company is in the process of closing the Frontline Power Solutions acquisition. SinglePoint achieved $1.5 million in revenue reported in the first quarter of this year. That represents a 650% growth over the $239,000 in revenue it reported in the first quarter of 2021. That’s just the start of what SinglePoint described as a breakout year for the Company. BOX Pure Air, for example, accounted for nearly all of the Company’s first-quarter revenue, and it’s expected to generate $10 million to $12 million for SinglePoint by the end of 2022. As an approved supplier of air purifiers under the U.S. Department of Education’s Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools (EANS) program, BOX Pure Air received a $5 million award, with deliveries slated to start in the third quarter. Launched in 2021 with an initial budget of $2.75 billion, EANS is meant to help eligible non-public schools around the country fund health and safety upgrades. Ranging from improving indoor air quality to providing personal protective equipment (PPE) and everything in between. In addition to the anticipated BOX Pure Air revenue, SinglePoint is targeting another $25 million from The Boston Solar Co. this year, a recent acquisition with a multimillion-dollar backlog of solar and energy storage projects. While the Company is still pursuing acquisitions, SinglePoint has also reported planning to use the projected revenue from 2022 to invest in its subsidiaries to grow that revenue further and leverage the existing synergies. In June, for example, SinglePoint added Ecodaptive Inc. to its portfolio through the Boston Solar acquisition. The Clean Energy Company is developing the SunRAYS Energy Program in Massachusetts to empower traditionally underserved communities to benefit from solar energy without the upfront investment it usually requires. Twenty-two states have policies to incentivize community solar programs. More than half of U.S. households cannot invest in solar because of a lack of financing, insufficient roof space, or limited sunlight to make individual solar systems viable. For those households, programs that spread the cost and share the benefits will make going solar a feasible and realistic option. Capitalizing on national and consumer interest in community renewable energy programs, SunRAYS will use a roof-lease structure. That means homeowners won’t need to pay upfront installation costs. As an additional bonus, the homeowners will get paid through lease agreements to install solar on their rooftops. Along with regional energy providers like Eversource Energy (NYSE: ES) and National Grid plc (NYSE: NGG), the pilot program is a pioneer in solving some distribution problems holding renewable energy markets back. By installing the solar panels on the rooftops in the communities where that power will get used, fewer high-voltage interconnections and power transmitters are needed to move that energy from its source to its end user. Singlepoint Inc is a bright light in the solar space as one of the fastest growing publicly traded solar companies in the U.S. Based on their incredible journey over the last two years; it will be interesting to see what happens next. Under the leadership of CEO Wil Ralston and his team, this Company is said to have executed superbly on its business plan. A business plan the Company looks to continue for the foreseeable future.

UNOS Extended Statement on the Senate Finance Committee Hearing on Organ Donation & Transplant

United Network for Organ Sharing

Yesterday, UNOS CEO Brian Shepard appeared before the Senate Committee on Finance to testify about the role of United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) and the organ donation and transplant community’s ongoing efforts to save lives and further improve the national system. We were disappointed by the Senate Committee on Finance’s misunderstanding of the role UNOS has been assigned by the government within the nation’s organ donation and transplant system. To clarify some of the confusion, here are the facts about what we do: As required in the Health and Human Services (HHS) Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) contract, UNOS utilizes confidential peer-review, a highly effective process in use across the healthcare system, to promote hospital and OPO quality. Meanwhile, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) holds oversight authority, including OPO certification and decertification. These roles are distinct, specified and critical to the system. The IT system designed, operated and maintained by UNOS is highly effective, safe and secure, fending off more than three million hacker attempts per day. The U.S. Digital Service (USDS), which released a negative report on our IT infrastructure, didn’t come on-site to review it. However, The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) routinely conducts on-site audits of the system, and has never found any of the purported deficiencies outlined by USDS. OPOs determine the best, safest way to transport donor organs. Transplant hospitals and OPOs coordinate between each other to ensure safe and timely transport and UNOS only becomes involved if contacted by one of these bodies. Though it is outside the scope of the HHS contract, UNOS responded to community needs by developing a GPS tracking tool that a quarter of OPOs now utilize. We were also very concerned that the Committee did not reference the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Mathematics (NASEM) yesterday, even though their important report, which was commissioned by Congress, includes many recommendations that our community is already undertaking and applauded UNOS’ approach to increasing equity through a new organ allocation framework. We remain dedicated to addressing these misperceptions and are looking forward to working with Congress to further improve. The U.S. organ donation and transplantation system is the most successful in the world and will soon exceed one million transplants in its history. Each represents a patient whose life was transformed. UNOS is proud of the community we have helped build and looks forward to continuing working together to serve all patients who rely on us. About UNOS United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is the mission-driven non-profit serving as the nation’s transplant system under contract with the federal government. We lead the network of transplant hospitals, organ procurement organizations, and thousands of volunteers who are dedicated to honoring the gifts of life entrusted to us and to making lifesaving transplants possible for patients in need. Working together, we leverage data and advances in science and technology to continuously strengthen the system, increase the number of organs recovered and the number of transplants performed, and ensure patients across the nation have equitable access to transplant.
