Autonomy: Investor Perception Positive Current View Inevitable Vehicle Autonomy vs Autonomous Vehicles? Suppliers: Content opportunity OEM s: Revenue opportunity Non-Auto Players hunting for their position How could we be wrong? Non-Auto player could be the disruptor Delayed timing Regulatory delays Infrastructure build out Regulatory demand creates adverse pricing environment 17
Electrification: Investor Perception Negative Current View Growing Sense of Inevitability Fixed / Variable cost pressure Disruption of Current Industry Order By Company (TSLA) or Government (China) Labor Risk How could that View be wrong? Commonization Outsourcing opportunity for Suppliers Long term opportunity to improve capital returns for OEM s 18
TaaS (Transportation as a Service): Investor Perception Confused Current View Inevitable Everyone wants to be a player: OEM, Supplier, Dealer & Rental, Tech, Government Data is Gold What is the pick axe? Industry unit volume production will decline but $ value likely to go higher How could we be wrong? Heterogeneity of market could lead to slower than anticipate adoption curve Business Models are Complex Slower than anticipated adoption curve some fundamental problems have not been addressed 19

Closing Thoughts The industry cycle is shifting and the market sees the industry through a historic valuation crucible. CAR.x is complex and will take time Manage capital with respect to risk not just reward Industry may want to adopt PE model to access liquidity and manage risk. THANK YOU VERY MUCH 24
