  4. WHAT DO WE DO IN FERMENTALG ? The start up Fermentalg focuses on R & D and production of different molecules from microalgae using heterotrophic and mixotrophic mode of culture AUTOTROPHIC USING LIGHT HETEROTROPHIC & MIXOTROPHIC EXTENSIVE ALGAL PRODUCTION PHOTOBIOREACTORS FERMENTERS / BIOREACTORS 1 g/liter 100 - 150 g/liter 0.1 g/liter Breaking down barriers to commercializing algae-based products Fermentalg Atlantic Forum Presentation – 21 Sept 2012 4 Ocean Green Energy

  5. FERMENTALG BUSINESS PLAN 3 YEARS 5 YEARS 7 YEARS TIME TO MARKET BIOENERGY Transesterification of GREEN CHEMISTRY oil from microalgae Polysaccharides and COSMETICS & substitution of petro- PHARMACEUTICS chemical molecules Bio-sourcing of different molecules NUTRITION Polyunsaturated fatty acids EPA-DHA and Large volumes and low value products VLCFA AQUACULTURE Production of biomass for the aquaculture ANIMAL FEED MARKET market Co-product valorization (proteins etc..) Small volumes and high value products Fermentalg Atlantic Forum Presentation – 21 Sept 2012 5 Ocean Green Energy

  6. FOCUS ON ALGAL OMEGA 3 (EPA & DHA) • • A FUNDAMENTAL NEED A STRONG DEMAND ( Cell membrane, brain, heart…) – Demand for EPA/DHA is expected to 40 Total fat rise by 13% % of Calories from Fat 30 – Demand for pharmaceutical and 20 food industry Saturated fat Omega 6 10 Number of new food products launches Omega 3 0 containing Omega 3 500 -4x10 6 -10,000y 1800s 1900s 2000s 450 Hunter- Gatherer Agricultural Industrial 400 350 CAGR 94/08 : G.A Spiller.

  7. FOCUS ON ALGAL OMEGA 3 (EPA & DHA MARKET & PLAYERS) In 2008, the European Omega 3 market represented 13,597 Metric Tons for a total revenue of $323.02M EPAX; 6,5% ONC; 5,0% Pronova; 30,5% Lysi; 4,6% European EPA DHA Omega 3 Napro Pharma; ingredient market 3,4% Denomega; 3,1% Algal Fish oil Croda; 3,1% Value 5,4% 94,6% Berg Lipid Tech.; Volume 1,2% 98,8% 3,1% Price range up to $120 from $20 Martek; 3,2% /kg to $100 Lonza; 2,2% Others; 35,3% Frost & Sullibvan European EPA DHA Omega 3 ingredient market in value by source (09) Fermentalg Atlantic Forum Presentation – 21 Sept 2012 7 Ocean Green Energy

  8. FOCUS ON ALGAL OMEGA 3 (EPA & DHA PRODUCTION ALTERNATIVE) Fish-oil cannot match population • demand for EPA/DHA Fish stock are depleting fast and can’t • be a sustainable resource Aquaculture is not a solution 40% >2Kg wild fish  1Kg of farmed salmon! 35% 30% Collapsed stock % 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 Quality issue from fish oil during • complex extraction processing High quality EPA / DHA production by (contaminants, odor, various microalgae can be the alternative concentration of EPA/DHA…) Fermentalg Atlantic Forum Presentation – 21 Sept 2012 8 Ocean Green Energy
