Cypress Development Corp owns lithium claystone deposits in Clayton Valley, Nevada near Albemarle's Silver Peak lithium mine. Drilling in 2017 encountered mineralization averaging 921 ppm lithium over 77 meters thick in 14 drill holes. Metallurgical tests show the claystone is acid leachable with up to 80% lithium extraction. Cypress plans additional drilling, metallurgical testing, and a preliminary economic assessment in 2018 to evaluate the project's potential.
Cypress Development Corp is exploring for lithium resources in Clayton Valley, Nevada. Recent drilling has encountered lithium-bearing claystone up to 112 meters below surface, with grades averaging over 800 ppm lithium. Metallurgical testing indicates 80% of the lithium can be extracted using a weak sulfuric acid solution. Cypress plans additional drilling in 2018 and expects to publish a initial lithium resource estimate in Q1 2018 to advance the project towards a preliminary economic assessment. The project is located near existing lithium production and infrastructure to be a potential new supply of lithium for the growing battery market.

• U.S. change in policy toward Cuba and dissipating travel restrictions eventually allowing the average
American to travel to Cuba
Americans represent 34% of visitors to Travelucion’s websites yet they account for less than 6% of the

seen with visitors from other nations, Travelucion could see a significant increase in sales very shortly
after the restrictions are lifted
• Enhance the corporate profile of the company though marketing
Focus marketing in North America to cater to Canadian and American travelers
Establish relationships/partnerships with large North American travel and cruise line companies
• Build upon Cuban Entrepreneur rules
• GDS incorporation for central booking
• Increase marketing budget through additional online advertising (online spending on content and/or pay-per-
click) as well as sales team
• Overhaul/modernize the websites that currently generate over 30 million page views a year; leverage this to
drive volume to the booking platform to monetize this traffic
• Continue to build on current 150 private home (Casa Particulares) rental listings using a model similar to
that of Airbnb and HomeAway, as well as taxi/historic private car service
17. 17

their phones, order classic car tours on demand, reserve private restaurants, tours and adventures in
real time, yet with a uniquely Cuban style

System (GDS) integration in preparation for GDS real-time bookings through Amadeus, Abacus and,
when authorized, American GDS companies Travelport and Sabre (near term catalyst)

marketing initiatives in numerous sectors with a specific spotlight on the emerging US-Cuba travel
market, while launching the development of mobile and web-based interfaces that will allow the
company to offer real-time reservations
