MP's median monthly production is >2.6x that of its predecessor in a largely fixed cost business: Adj. EBITDA and FCF positive at this stage Stage II (complete by 2022): retrofit of the existing processing facility workflow to make separated rare earth oxides more reliably, at significantly lower cost and with an expected smaller environmental footprint. The project is permitted, "shovel-ready." and is expected to accelerate near-term ecmings power to $252 milion of expected 2023 Adj. EBITDA at estimated forward pricing Stage II (2025+): leverage singular source of commercial-scale Western rare earth supply to expand downstream to magnels, easing concerns about China as a supply chain "single point of failure" as global EV penetration accelerates: flexibility to buy, build, or JV with substantial incremental EBITDA opportunity#8EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: PROPOSED TRANSACTION Structure 5 Valuation + MP Materials and Fortress Value Acquisition Corp, have executed definitive agreements to enter into a business combination (the "Transaction") MPHATERALS I It is anticipated that the post-closing public company will be a Delaware corporation, retain the MP Materials name, and be listed on the NYSE The Transaction is expected to be funded by a combination of $345MM cash held in trust at FVAC (less any redemptions) and $200MM in committed PIPE proceeds - - Transaction is expected to result in $525MM of net cash to fully fund the MP growth strategy Proceeds will be utilized to complete refinery retrofit and fund downstream expansion strategy to return magnet manufacturing to the United States New and existing shareholders aligned in maximizing value with FVAC's founder shares subject to vesting pursuant to an eam-out ("Sponsor Promote Shares") and the potential for issuance of incentive shares ("Seller Incentive Shores") to existing forget shareholders. in each case, subject to the achievement of certain share price performance hurdles Transaction implies a pre-transaction Enterprise Value (cash-free / debt-free) of -$1.000MM and a post-transaction Equity Value of approximately -$1.473MMPIN Represents a material discount to public peers and retains significant valuation upside for anchor investors.
