Industrywide Acceptance via ESR. ▪ SG Blocks has a modular construction with lower cost of capital over traditional construction, enabling developers to increase the number and size of projects they deploy ▪ SG Blocks building costs to developers are ~$250/sq. foot, or ~13% less than with traditional construction, as a result of: ▪ Savings on labor, security & insurance ▪ Construction interest savings due to ~40% reduction in construction duration ▪ Allows the project to generate revenue when it would otherwise be under construction, further increasing project - level IRR ▪ SG Blocks’ ESR rating provides a significant advantage over comparable firms, as it expedites the review process with building departments ▪ This allows SG Blocks to bid on construction projects where developers may not have a preference whether a project is container based, and compete via traditional construction metrics such as cost, speed etc. Cash - on - Cash Return 2.04x 2.66x Project IRR 16.14% 26.78% THE ABOVE METRICS ARE BASED ON A THEORETICAL 63,716 SQ.
