FINANCIAL INFORMATION; NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES The financial information and data contained in this Presentation is unaudited and does not conform to Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act. Accordingly, such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in, any proxy statement/prospectus to be filed by DCRC with the SEC. Some of the financial information and data contained in this Presentation, such as EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Free Cash Flow, have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). DCRC and Solid Power believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Solid Power's financial condition and results of operations. DCRC and Solid Power believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projected operating results and trends in and in comparing Solid Power's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Solid Power's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non- GAAP financial measures.

Solid Power DCRC+ 3#4Risk Factors RISK RELATED TO DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION " " " " " We face significant challenges in our attempt to develop our products and produce them at high volumes with acceptable performance, yields and costs. The pace of development in materials science is often not predictable. Delays or failures in accomplishing particular development objectives may delay or prevent successful commercialization of our products. If our batteries fail to perform as expected, our ability to develop, market, and sell our batteries could be harmed. Our relationships with our partners are subject to various risks which could adversely affect our business and future prospects. There are no assurances that we will be able to commercialize solid-state batteries from our joint development relationships with our partners. We are subject to risks relating to the construction and development activities of our manufacturing facilities. We rely on complex machinery for our operations, and production involves a significant degree of risk and uncertainty in terms of operational performance and costs. If our planned manufacturing plants do not become operable on schedule, or at all, or become inoperable, production of our battery cells and our business will be harmed. Substantial increases in the prices for our raw materials and components, some of which are obtained in volatile markets where demand may exceed supply, could materially and adversely affect our business. We may be unable to adequately control the costs associated with our operations and the components necessary to build our solid-state battery cells, and, if we are unable to control these costs and achieve cost advantages in our production of our solid-state battery cells at scale, our business will be adversely affected. If we are unable to attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel, our ability to compete could be harmed. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect us from all business risks. Our facilities or operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of natural disasters and other catastrophic events. We have been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by the global COVID-19 pandemic. RISK RELATED TO INDUSTRY AND MARKET TRENDS The battery industry and its technology are rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes, such as technological developments in existing technologies or new developments in competitive technologies that could adversely affect the demand for our battery cells. The battery market continues to evolve and is highly competitive, and we may not be successful in competing in this market or establishing and maintaining confidence in our long-term business prospects among current and future partners and customers. Our future growth and success are dependent upon consumers' willingness to adopt electric vehicles. We may not succeed in attracting customers during the development stage or for high volume commercial production, and our future growth and success depend on our ability to attract customers. We may not be able to accurately estimate the future supply and demand for our batteries, which could result in a variety of inefficiencies in our business and hinder our ability to generate revenue. If we fail to accurately predict our manufacturing requirements, we could incur additional costs or experience delays. " RISK RELATED TO LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY We are an early stage company with a history of financial losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future. Our limited operating history makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of your investment. If we fail to effectively manage our future growth, we may not be able to market and sell our battery cells successfully. Our management has limited experience in operating a public company. RISK RELATED TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY " We rely heavily on our intellectual property, which includes patent rights, trade secrets, copyrights and know-how. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, our business and competitive position would be harmed. Our patent applications may not result in issued patents, which would result in the disclosures in those applications being available to the public. Also, our patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from interfering with our commercialization of our products. We have not performed exhaustive searches or analyses of the intellectual property landscape of the battery industry, therefore, we are unable to guarantee that our technology does not infringe intellectual property rights of third parties. We may need to defend ourselves against intellectual property infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and could cause us to incur substantial costs. RISK RELATED TO FINANCE AND ACCOUNTING " Our expectations and targets regarding the times when we will achieve various technical, pre-production and production objectives depend in large part upon assumptions, estimates, measurements, testing, analyses and data developed and performed by us. If these assumptions, estimates, measurements, testing, analyses or data prove to be incorrect or flawed, our actual operating results and performance may suffer or fail to meet expectations. Our projections are subject to significant risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties. As a result, our actual future revenues, gross margin, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, expenses and free cash flow may differ materially from our projections. Incorrect estimates or assumptions by management in connection with the preparation of our financial statements could adversely affect our reported assets, liabilities, income, revenue or expenses. Our failure to timely and effectively implement controls and procedures required by Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes- Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our ability to utilize our net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations. The unavailability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Solid Power DCRC+ 4#5" " " " Risk Factors (cont'd) RISKS RELATED TO LEGAL AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE We are subject to regulations regarding the storage and handling of various products. We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims. From time to time, we may be involved in litigation, regulatory actions or government investigations and inquiries, which could have an adverse impact on our profitability and consolidated financial position. We are subject to substantial regulation, including but not limited to export control regulations that govern our technology, and unfavorable changes to, or failure by us to comply with, these regulations could substantially harm our business and operating results. We will incur significant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our battery technology and our website, systems, and data we maintain may be subject to intentional disruption, other security incidents, or alleged violations of laws, regulations, or other obligations relating to data handling that could result in liability and adversely impact our reputation and future sales. This area of the law develops at a rapid pace and we may not be able to monitor and react to all developments in a timely manner. As legislation continues to develop and security incidents continue to evolve, we may be required to expend significant resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures to comply with such legislation and to detect, investigate and remediate vulnerabilities to security incidents. Any future failure by us to comply with applicable cybersecurity or data privacy legislation could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, results of operations or financial condition. We are subject to various existing and future environmental health and safety laws, which may result in increased compliance costs or additional operating costs and restrictions. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations may result in substantial fines or other limitations that could adversely impact our financial results or operations. We are subject to multiple environmental permitting processes at the national, sub-national, and/or local level. Failure to obtain key permits and approvals may adversely impact our business. We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to administrative, civil and criminal fines and penalties, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation. " " RISKS RELATED TO THE BUSINESS COMBINATION Following the consummation of the Business Combination, DCRC's sole material asset will be its direct equity interest in Solid Power and will be accordingly dependent upon distributions from Solid Power to pay taxes and cover its corporate and other overhead expenses and pay dividends, if any, on its Class A common stock. If the Business Combination's benefits do not meet the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the market price of DCRC's securities or, following the consummation of the Business Combination, the combined company's securities, may decline. There can be no assurance that the combined company's Class A common stock will be approved for listing on Nasdaq or that the combined company will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq. Subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination, the combined company may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, or the combined company may be subject to restructuring, impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on the combined company's financial condition, results of operations and the price of our Class A common stock, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment. DCRC and Solid Power will incur significant transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination. The consummation of the Business Combination is subject to a number of conditions and if those conditions are not satisfied or waived, the expected Business Combination may not be completed. Legal proceedings in connection with the Business Combination, the outcomes of which are uncertain, could delay or prevent the completion of the Business Combination.
