ACES Advanced Cryogenic Evolved Stage New Mission Capability Weeks Duration Many Engine Burns Increased Mission Flexibility Affordable Atlas 541 performance for less than $100M Integrated Vehicle Fluids & Cryogenics Utilizing waste propellants to power subsystems Power > No Main batteries Reaction control > No Hydrazine Pressurization > No Helium ACES is Key to Opening CisLunar Highway October 2017 5

ULA s interests include lunar surface access ACES + Mission Kit LH2/LO2 Thruster Landing GN&C Landing struts XEUS Large Scale Lunar Lander October 2017 6 XEUS Cargo Ascender or Cargo Module ACES and its XEUS variant can be the Cornerstone of Reusable CisLunar Transportation

Lunar Surface Cargo Evolution Distributed Launch 1) Launch 2) Refuel ACES 4) Lunar Orbit Insertion And Descent 5) XEUS Terminal Descent 3) Trans-Lunar Injection ACES & Propellant Tank ACES/XEUS & Payload Propellant Transfer 12mT to the Lunar Surface October 2017 7

Lunar Propellant Mining Business Case Lunar sourcing of propellant may close a business case If lunar propellant can be purchased in LEO for less than Earth launch Water mined 1,575 mt/yr Based on propellant at mixture ratio of 5.5 525 mt/yr excess oxygen Lunar propellant produced 1,050 mt/yr Based on ACES/XEUS transport from moon to LEO Propellant delivered to LEO 210 mt/yr Existing ULA demand Price at the moon $0.5M/mT Based on cost to transport to LEO Aerobraking could increase affordability by 2-3X Price in LEO $3M/mT Required to close business case Total annual revenue $630m/yr Affordable non-recurring cost $3.5B Total investment: development + delivery October 2017 8

Launch Services for CisLunar Economy ULA ready to support the CisLunar economy with launch services and commercial synergies XEUS provides lunar cargo deliveries, building on ACES revolutionary capabilities IVF is a Revolutionary New Capability Enables Long Duration Spaceflight & New Space Activities Enables Science, Prospecting, Mining, Manufacturing, etc. October 2017 9
