What is the problem?
Today a large % of all oil and gas wells are drilled using hydrocarbon based drilling fluid. After drilling, most of the cuttings contaminated fluid (up to 40% by weight) is disposed in landfills. It continues to
accumulate creating future risk and in addition the drilling fluid is lost forever.
What is Elavo?
Elavo is a clean-tech oilfield waste management company that uses proprietary technology to separate and recover up to 99% of the hydrocarbon drilling fluid for resale and reuse. This reduces landfill
by approximately 50%.
What is the technology?
A technological breakthrough that uses Proprietary technology that is highly efficient and operates on a small footprint, on a mobile unit. Very low input costs with high thermal efficiency. Novel
technology using direct thermal desorption with heat recapture and proprietary coalescing and cooling of vapor streams.
Why should oil and gas companies care?
It makes them greener and reduces landfill by 50% through recovering drilling fluid.
How does Elavo make money?
Revenue from drilling fluid as well as a processing fee.
How big is the market?
Western Canada is 3-4 mm. tons per year of cuttings and the Permian basin (Texas) is much larger.
How does Elavo plan to scale it’s business?
We plan to license the technology to major oilfield waste management companies.
Pre-Money Valuation and Support for Valuation:
There’s a potential for multiple units capable of generating large EBITA per unit. Elavo has no debt and the opportunity is driven by economics and not by regulation or legislation.

Drill cuttings treatment overview – current industry standard
Typical treatment possibilities for oil-based drill cuttings used in E&P today
• Drill cuttings are a by-product of oil & gas
drilling and are subject to disposal and other
regulatory requirements in various E&P
jurisdictions, which are becoming more
stringent globally
Drilling fluid recycle
1. Primary treatment
• Oil content of cuttings is typically 35-50% by
weight after primary treatment
• Standard methods of fluid recovery are
slow, inefficient, and typically uneconomic
• Solidification for transport to landfills (e.g.
sawdust mixing) is also frequently used but
adds significant cost to disposal (increases
landfill volumes by ~50%), recovers no
valuable drilling fluids, and bears the risk of
environmental hydrocarbon contamination

The Elavo difference: high-efficiency thermal desorption technology
Targeting an efficient, economic, highly scalable commercial solution for recovery/resale of drilling fluids
Elavo’s proprietary direct heating thermal desorption unit and process targets:
• High thermal efficiency (direct heating method with thermal energy recovery)
• High recovery factor (85%+ adjustable to purpose) for drilling fluids
• Minimal carryover of low-gravity solids in order to maximize drilling fluid resale value / reusability
• Low capex requirement and small physical footprint
• Mobile and scalable to suit application, operating environment / throughput supply
• Less complex heating system and fewer moving parts
• Significant reduction of transport bulk volume and costs (elimination of need for solidification e.g.
sawdust mixing) – waste volume reduction of up to 40-50%
• Capable of more easily controlling temperature profile over a larger range
• Huge opportunity for ESG enhancement within the energy industry
CONFIDENTIAL
Standard thermal desorption technologies
Standard technologies for TD drill cuttings treatment / fluid recovery are sub-optimal
Hammermills
• Uses thermomechanical / friction heating via
rotating hammers to heat cuttings and
evaporate drilling fluids (inefficient energy
transfer – conversion of mechanical to thermal)
– used mostly offshore
• Many moving parts and more frequent
maintenance and replacement
• Pulverizes cuttings, reducing particle size,
creating more fines, which are problematic for
recycling and reduce value of fluids
• Vapours at saturation temperature; any
reduction in temperature thereafter will cause
condensation in the process loop
CONFIDENTIAL
Indirect Dryers (Rotating Kiln)
• Very large, complex, with large footprint
Heated Screw Processing Units
• High surface area and low thermal efficiency
due to indirect heating of large kiln
• 1 or 2 stage, 1st stage screw heated via
thermal fluid and 2nd stage screw heated
electrically at much higher temperature
• Vapours at saturation temperature, so any
reduction in temperature thereafter will cause
condensation in the process loop
• Vapours at saturation temperature, so any
reduction in temperature thereafter will cause
condensation in the process loop
• Generally uses baghouse filtration, so
condensation is an issue
• Complex process and equipment
• High capex
• Currently available yet not much apparent
acceptance
• Not widely used despite being around for
decades
• High capex
Testing and optimization process
10 months of optimization, engineering, and testing post-fabrication has delivered successful results
• The Elavo engineering and R&D team
has spent ten months enhancing and
investing in the HE-TDU prototype
• A newly implemented multi-stage
cooling, condensation and coalescing
system has successfully delivered
~90%+ fluid recovery factor in recent
testing

STATUTORY RIGHTS OF ACTION – 1 of 3
Securities legislation in certain of the provinces of Canada may deem this presentation to be an offering memorandum and accordingly provide purchasers with statutory rights of rescission or damages, or both, in the event
this presentation contains a misrepresentation. A “misrepresentation” is an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact that is required to be stated or that is necessary to make any statement
not misleading or false in the light of the circumstances in which it was made. These remedies must be commenced by the purchaser within the time limits prescribed and are subject to the defences contained in the
applicable securities legislation. Purchasers should refer to the applicable provisions of the securities legislation of their province for the particulars of these rights or consult with a legal adviser.
The following is a summary of the statutory rights of rescission or damages, or both, under securities legislation in certain of the provinces of Canada where that is required to be disclosed under the relevant securities
legislation, and as such, is subject to the express provisions of the legislation and the related regulations and rules. The rights described below are in addition to, and without derogation from, any other right or remedy
available at law to purchasers of the securities.
Ontario Purchasers
Ontario securities legislation provides that where an offering memorandum is delivered to a purchaser and contains a misrepresentation, the purchaser will be deemed to have relied upon the misrepresentation and will,
except as provided below, have a statutory right of action for damages or for rescission against the issuer and a selling security holder on whose behalf the distribution is made; if the purchaser elects to exercise the right of
rescission, the purchaser will have no right of action for damages against the issuer or any selling security holder. No such action shall be commenced more than, in the case of an action for rescission, 180 days after the date
of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action, or, in the case of any action other than an action for rescission, the earlier of: (i) 180 days after the purchaser first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of
action, or (ii) three years after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action. The Ontario legislation provides a number of limitations and defences to such actions, including: (a) the issuer or any selling
security holder is not liable if it proves that the purchaser purchased the securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (b) in an action for damages, the issuer shall not be liable for all or any portion of the damages
that the issuer or any selling security holder proves do not represent the depreciation in value of the securities as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon; and (c) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the
price at which the securities were offered.
These rights are not available for a purchaser that is: (a) a Canadian financial institution, meaning either: (i) an association governed by the Cooperative Credit Associations Act (Canada) or a central cooperative credit society
for which an order has been made under section 473(1) of that Act; or (ii) a bank, loan corporation, trust company, trust corporation, insurance company, treasury branch, credit union, caisse populaire, financial services
cooperative, or league that, in each case, is authorized by an enactment of Canada or a province or territory of Canada to carry on business in Canada or a province or territory of Canada; (b) a Schedule III bank, meaning an
authorized foreign bank named in Schedule III of the Bank Act (Canada); (c) the Business Development Bank of Canada incorporated under the Business Development Bank of Canada Act (Canada); or (d) a subsidiary of any
person referred to in clauses (a), (b) or (c), if the person owns all of the voting securities of the subsidiary, except the voting securities required by law to be owned by directors of that subsidiary.
New Brunswick Purchasers
New Brunswick securities legislation provides that where any information relating to an offering that is provided to a purchaser of the securities contains a misrepresentation, a purchaser who purchases the securities shall
be deemed to have relied on the misrepresentation if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase. Such purchaser has a right of action for damages against the issuer or may elect to exercise a right of rescission
against the issuer, in which case the purchaser shall have no right of action for damages. No such action shall be commenced more than, in the case of an action for rescission, 180 days after the date of the transaction that
gave rise to the cause of action or, in the case of any action, other than an action for rescission, the earlier of (i) one year after the plaintiff first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action, and (ii) six years
after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action. The New Brunswick legislation provides a number of limitations and defences to such actions, including: (a) the issuer is not liable if it proves that the
purchaser purchased the securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (b) in an action for damages, the issuer shall not be liable for all or any portion of the damages that it proves do not represent the depreciation
in value of the securities as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon; and (c) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which the securities were offered.
Nova Scotia Purchasers
Nova Scotia securities legislation provides that in the event that an offering memorandum or a record incorporated by reference in an offering memorandum, together with any amendments thereto, or any advertising or
sales literature (as defined in the Nova Scotia securities legislation) contains a misrepresentation, a purchaser who purchases the securities referred to in it is deemed to have relied upon such misrepresentation if it was a
misrepresentation at the time of purchase. Such purchaser has a statutory right of action for damages against the seller (which includes the issuer) and, subject to certain additional defences, the directors of the seller.
Alternatively, the purchaser while still an owner of the securities, may elect instead to exercise a statutory right of rescission against the issuer, in which case the purchaser shall have no right of action for damages against
the seller or the directors. No such action shall be commenced to enforce the right of action for rescission or damages more than 120 days after the date payment was made for the securities (or after the date on which
initial payment was made for the securities where payments subsequent to the initial payment are made pursuant to a contractual commitment assumed prior to, or concurrently with, the initial payment).
CONFIDENTIAL
STATUTORY RIGHTS OF ACTION – 2 of 3
The Nova Scotia legislation provides a number of limitations and defences, including: (a) no person or company is liable if the person or company proves that the purchaser purchased the securities with knowledge of the
misrepresentation; (b) in the case of an action for damages, no person or company is liable for all or any portion of the damages that it proves do not represent the depreciation in value of the securities as a result of the
misrepresentation; and (c) in no case will the amount recoverable in any action exceed the price at which the securities were offered to the purchaser.
A person or company, other than the issuer, is not liable with respect to any part of the offering memorandum or any amendment to the offering memorandum not purporting (a) to be made on the authority of an expert or
(b) to be a copy of, or an extract from, a report, opinion or statement of an expert, unless the person or company (i) failed to conduct a reasonable investigation to provide reasonable grounds for a belief that there had
been no misrepresentation or (ii) believed that there had been a misrepresentation.
