1. Biofuels for GA George Bye, CEO – Bye Energy July 31, 2009

3. Led Aviation Technology Group, Javelin

4. ATP rating, >4,000 hours (T-38, C-141B)George Bye 2

5. Integrator of alternative energy and renewable fuel technologies for business and general aviation 3

6. Why Biofuels for GA? Alternative Fuel Sources NEED FOR OPS EFFICIENCY Threat: High Ops Cost Potentially Limits Utility VOLATILE FUEL COSTS Threat: Unpredictable Cost Limits Planning Effectiveness INTERNATIONAL PETRO SUPPLY Threat: Aviation Fuel Potentially Limited/Costly ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS Threat: Noise, CO2 Pollution FUTURE FOR DoD AVIATION Threat: Loss of Flexibility; Efficiency; Security 4

8. Significant biochemical and thermochemical research advances

9. 70% blend (renewable version of petroleum fuel) available in the very near term

10. Multiple biofuels tests continue5

11. Traditional Fuel Perspective Crude oil, coal, and natural gas come from biomass (organic matter) that has been processed by nature over billions of years Biomass can come from corn, agricultural byproducts, palm nuts, algae, and other cellulosic resources 6

13. Only 3% of oil reserves in U.S. control

14. National security concerns

15. Finite crude oil supply

16. Increasing global energy demand

17. Price volatility & supply uncertainty

18. Emissions / Climate change

19. Emergence of new energy culture7

20. Advanced Biofuel Production Targets As mandated by the U.S. Dept. of Energy per 2007 EISA 8

22. Food based

23. Controversial, although solutions exist that address the controversy

24. Traditional Biodiesel

25. Natural oils & fats—generally food-based vegetable oils

26. Utilizes a Transesterification process

27. Cellulosic Biofuels

28. Biochemical or thermochemical conversion

29. Non-food based / sustainable / carbon neutral

30. First productions sites becoming operational

31. Algae Biofuels

32. High energy content / non-food based / consumes CO2

33. R&D phase: Cultivation and harvesting challenges9

34. Biomass (Feedstock) Oily Plants Cellulosic Pre-treatment (Pyrolysis) Ethanol Bio-Oil Extraction Gasification Bio - Oils Hydrolysis/ Fermentation Syngas Shift reaction Fischer Tropsch Methanol Synthesis Esterification Hydrotreatment FT Synjet Methanol Hydrogen Ethanol/C2+ Alcohols Biodiesel SynJet BioJet BioJet BioJet Biofuel Production Processes 10

36. Some displace valuable rain forests

37. Questionable energy balance

38. Marginal energy density

39. Relatively expensive

40. Impacts human food costPalm Oil Nuts 11

41. Next Generation Biofeedstock Jatropha Shrub Nuts Switch Grass 12

43. Avoids commodity pricing

44. Aggressive growth cycle

45. Not a human food source

46. No ag land, fertilizer or potable water

47. Absorbs CO2 and emits O2

48. Valuable residual13

50. Adequate Base of R & D

52. Media/Communications (TV, Cell Ph)

53. Info Tech (PC, Internet)14

55. ASTM/FAA Tests and Certification in 2010

56. Meaningful Production Quantities 201115
