With much pride and after over three years of patiently working with our patent attorney K&L Gates we finally can announce reaching an all important milestone in the history of our company. This patent represents the cornerstone of our intellectual property and we are continually building additional patents around it to further strengthen our portfolio . As batteries continue to evolve and become increasingly important in the movement away from fossil fuels towards e-mobility we believe that the purity and controlled nanorod morphology of our lithium metal matters and in fact will be a critical enabler and accelerator of that paradigm shift.

We congratulate our entire team for its perseverance and thank our shareholders for their continued support."
