A single cell algae 1.5 billion years is the basis of Solazyme’s technology
Microalgae is the original oil producer and a ‘factory’ of unique, high-performance ingredients
5
Sugar to oils and cosmetic ingredients in a matter of days
Solazyme’s technology platform converts renewable plant sugars into renewable oils and specialty ingredients
6
Manufacturing Process – From sugar to oils
Precision controlled environment allowing the production of the purest oils:
sugarcane to oils and ingredients in a matter of days

Solazyme Bunge – Bringing innovation to market
Producing and delivering oils today from the world’s first plant,
located in Sao Paulo State
AlgaPūr Oils produced at SB plant: co-located to a Bonsucro certified mill

Microalgae Oils have multiple uses in personal care
Direct uses in formulations
Raw ingredients for performance derivatives
• Emollients
• Viscosity builders
• Emulsifiers
• Conditioners
• Carriers
• Opacifiers
Microalgae Oils
• Soaps
• Surfactants
• Esters
• Emulsifiers
• Alcohols
• Acids
High Lauric Oil
Sustainable High Performance Microalgae Lauric Oil
AlgaPūr High Lauric Oil is rainforest friendly, gentle and luxurious in product formulations

Challenge : Doing more with Less
“Deforestation and forest degradation … account for nearly 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than the entire global transportation sector and second only to the energy sector.”

Challenge #1: Doing more with Less
High C10 Algae Oil is 8 times more efficient at producing C10 than Palm Kernel Oil
Palm Kernel Oil High C10 Algal Oil
40% Capric (C10)
5% Capric (C10)
Less oil needed to produce the same benefits for consumers Expanding use as companies seek more sustainable alternatives
13
Challenge: Traceability and Sustainability
Current RSPO not satisfactory
Need for scalable production of sustainable and traceable oils able to
functionally replace palm oil
Particularly acute for personal care application is the need for an oil
rich in lauric fatty acids (C12) that is currently mostly sourced from
palm kernel oil
Increasing consumer awareness demands for more sustainable and traceable sources of oils
14
AlgaPūr High Lauric Oil produced by microalgae from sustainable sugars
has a low environmental impact compared to other oils
Low Greenhouse Gas footprint
50% less than palm kernel oil
Low water consumption
7 times less than palm kernel oil
Low land use impact
8 times the oil yield per hectare of palm kernel oil

CARBON FOOTPRINT – ALGAE OIL PRODUCED IN BRAZIL
Algae oil produced in Brazil has a low carbon footprint (includes carbon emissions associated with land use change)

Early adopters leading the way
Unilever Formulates First Soap Bar Using Sustainable Algal Oils
“Through incorporating Algal Oils into our Lux products…not only do we deliver better products to our consumers, but we also
help the planet in the process.” [Anne Radmacher, Lux Global Brand Vice President]
BASF and Solazyme Launch First Commercial Microalgae-Derived Betaine Surfactant
“Consumer demand for sustainable and innovative surfactants has increased significantly in the home and personal care markets. Combining BASF’s chemistry expertise with
Solazyme’s range of renewable microalgae oils allows us to deliver products that meet this demand.”
[Josef Koester, Director Marketing HPC, BASF North America]
Natura and Solazyme announce partnership
“We are always looking for ingredients from renewable sources and technologies inspired in the nature, targeting low environmental impact processes and high performance solutions.”
[Daniel Gonzaga, Natura Director of Advanced Research]
