LanzaTech SPAC Presentation Deck

Risk Factors Certain Factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects could be adversely affected. In that event, you could lose all or part of your investment. All references in this section to "we," our" or "us" refer both to the business of LanzaTech and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the proposed business combination and to the business of the post-business combination public company and its subsidiaries. The list below has been prepared solely for the purpose of the private placement transaction, and solely for potential private placement investors, and not for any other purpose. Accordingly, the list below is qualified in its entirety by disclosures contained in future documents filed or furnished by LanzaTech and AMCI Acquisition Corporation II, Inc. ("AMCI") or otherwise with respect to LanzaTech and AMCI, with the SEC, including the documents filed or furnished in connection with the proposed transactions between LanzaTech and AMCI. The risks presented in such filings may differ significantly from and be more extensive that those presented below. Our business, results of operations and financial condition have been, and could continue to be, adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have incurred losses and anticipate continuing to incur losses. We rely, and expect to continue to rely, heavily on industry partners to effect our growth strategy and to execute our business plan, and our failure to successfully maintain and manage these relationships and enter into new relationships could delay our anticipated timelines, prevent the successful development and commercialization of products produced using our process technologies, negatively impact our financial results and prevent us from achieving or sustaining profitability. Even if we are successful in entering into strategic partnering arrangements, there are a number of different arrangements that we can pursue, and there are no assurances that we will select and negotiate the best arrangements for us and our stockholders. We have entered into and anticipate entering into non-binding letters of intent, side letters, memoranda of understanding, term sheets and other arrangements with potential industry partners and cannot assure you that such arrangements will lead to definitive agreements. If we are unable to complete these arrangements in a timely manner and on terms favorable to us, our business will be adversely affected. We continue to face significant risks associated with our internal expansion strategy. Construction of our or our partners' plants may not be completed in the expected timeframe or in a cost-effective manner. Any delays in the construction of plants could severely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Failure to continuously reduce operating and capital costs for our our partners' facilities that deploy our process technologies may impact adoption our process technologies and severely impact our business, ncial condition, results of operations and prospects. Maintenance, expansion and refurbishment of our and our partners' facilities, the construction of new facilities and the development and implementation of our new process technologies or new aspects of our existing process technologies involve significant risks. Our commercial success may be influenced by the price of fossil feedstocks relative to the price of our waste based feedstocks. Fluctuations in the prices of waste based feedstocks used to manufacture the products produced using our process technologies may affect our or our industry partners' cost structure, gross margin and ability to compete. Declines in the prices of feedstocks our competitors use to produce their products could allow them to reduce the prices of their products, which could cause us or our industry partners to reduce the prices of the products produced using our process technologies. This could make it uneconomical for our partners to produce products using our process technologies. While abundant, if the availability of the waste based feedstocks used in our process technologies declines or competition for them increases, we or our business partners may experience delayed or reduced production or be required to raise the prices of the products produced using our process technologies, either of which could reduce the demand for the products produced using our process technologies and our revenue. We compete in an industry characterized by rapidly advancing technologies, intense competition and a complex intellectual property landscape, and our failure to successfully compete with other companies in our industry may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and market share. Technological innovation by others could render our technology and the products produced using our process technologies obsolete or uneconomical. Our financial results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter and are difficult to predict. Our financial projections may differ materially from actual results. We may require substantial additional financing to fund our operations and complete the development and commercialization of the process technologies that produce each of our products or new aspects of our existing process technologies that produce each of our products, and we may not be able to do so on favorable terms. If we are unable to manage our growth and expand our operations successfully, our reputation and brand may be damaged and our business and results of operations may be harmed. If we lose key personnel or are unable to attract, integrate and retain additional key personnel, it could harm our research and development efforts, delay the commercialization of the new process technologies or the new aspects of our existing process technologies, delay the launch of process technologies in our development pipeline and impair our ability to meet our business objectives. No assurances can be given that the Projected Financing will occur or with respect to the actual size, timing and form of any such financing. LanzaTech 58
