Two challenges of our times GHG emissions: worldwide >50 bn. t CO2eq./a Corona: worldwide more than 8 million infected As of 16 June 2020 Source: EEA Source: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/worldwide-graphs/#total-cases CropEnergies AG, June 2020 2
Ethanol – important element to decarbonize the transport sector High-quality fuel Domestic which can be renewable raw used in petrol materials engines Climate-friendly fuel produced sustainably CropEnergies AG, June 2020 3
Ethanol: 70% less GHG emissions compared to fossil fuels* The GHG values of all elements in the value-added chain are added up The emissions from ethanol when used in combustion engines is zero European ethanol reduces annual GHG emissions by >10 Mt** Cultivation Transport Ethanol Ethanol CO2 Grain Grain Production Transport Liquefaction *83,8 gCO2eq/MJ **Own calculations CropEnergies AG, June 2020 4
Renewable ethanol – advantages Ethanol… Blending As direct blend to petrol (e.g. E5, E10, E85) Ethanol As component in ETBE (octane booster) Petrol E10 reduces CO2, NOx and particulate matter E5 E10 E20 E85 WLTP* benchmark, label in tank flap of all new cars Potential savings (EU): >20 Mt CO2eq (8 million less cars on the road) Potential for 20% ethanol blending (Super E20) Potential savings: >40 Mt CO2eq (16 million less cars on the road) Successful racing results (Porsche/Nürburgring) *Worldwide harmonized light-duty vehicle test CropEnergies AG, June 2020 5

Outlook 2020/21 Climate protection will remain an important environmental policy goal in the medium term For the 1st quarter, CE reached an operating profit of € 8.1million An improvement is expected for the 2nd quarter vs. the 1st quarter since the restrictions on production and mobility that have been in place since mid-March 2020 have been relaxed in more and more countries CropEnergies expects an improvement in the course of the financial year, but with a significant decline in revenues and operating profit in comparison to the previous record year The forecast will therefore be substantiated in line with the course of the corona pandemic CropEnergies AG, June 2020 23
