DCRC - Solid Power, Inc., an industry-leading producer of all-solid-state batteries for electric vehicles, and Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corporation III announced a definitive agreement for a business combination that would result in Solid Power becoming a publicly listed company. The business combination values Solid Power at an implied $1.2 billion pro forma enterprise value. With eight years of technology development and three years of manufacturing development, Solid Power has been working to deliver on one objective – produce better performing all-solid-state batteries using low-cost, industry standard processes. Solid Power manufactures its batteries on the company's pilot production line, which essentially mirrors lithium-ion manufacturing processes, while eliminating certain expensive and timely steps. Solid Power's all-solid-state batteries could provide a near 500-mile vehicle range on a single charge, which is 50 to 75 percent greater than any commercially available lithium-ion battery today. The safety profile of Solid Power's batteries is also improved over traditional lithium-ion as a result of its truly all-solid cell architecture. Solid Power's partners Ford and BMW expect to integrate the company's batteries in future electric vehicles. With nearly a $220 billion total addressable market, Solid Power is well-positioned for significant growth for years to come. Through the vision and leadership of Doug Campbell, they have built an incredible team, developed an all-solid-state battery technology platform that is expected to outperform lithium-ion and future next-generation battery technologies, and attracted a collection of world-class investors and partners. The proposed transaction is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2021,
Upon closing of the transaction, the combined company will be named Solid Power and is expected to be listed on the NASDAQ and trade under the new ticker symbol "SLDP."

As the wave of investment capital directed to environmental, social, and corporate governance ("ESG") goals continues its acceleration, we believe a publicly traded Tritium will serve as a valuable core holding for ESG investors. Tritium's customers include Chargepoint Ionity - the EV charging joint venture of Volkswagen AG, BMW , Daimler AG, Ford Motor Co and Hyundai Motor Co - as well as Nissan Motor Co Ltd , Honda Motor Co Ltd and Harley-Davidson Inc .
