FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain statements included in this presentation that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Origin’s business strategy, estimated total addressable market, commercial and operating plans, product development plans and projected financial information. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this presentation, and on the current expectations of the respective management of Origin and Artius and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Origin and Artius. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including that Origin may be unable to successfully commercialize its products; the effects of competition on Origin’s business; the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to Origin; disruptions and other impacts to Origin’s business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global health or economic crises; changes in customer demand; the parties may be unable to successfully or timely consummate the Proposed Business Combination, including the risk that any regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Proposed Business Combination or that the approval of the stockholders of Artius or Origin is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination; the amount of redemption requests made by Artius’ stockholders, and those factors discussed in the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by Artius with the SEC on March 9, 2021 (the “Registration Statement”) under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents Artius has filed, or will file, with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Artius nor Origin presently know, or that Artius or Origin currently believe are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Artius’ and Origin’s expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this presentation. Artius and Origin anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Artius’ and Origin’s assessments to change. However, while Artius and Origin may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Artius and Origin specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Artius’ and Origin’s assessments of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND WHERE TO FIND IT This presentation relates to a proposed transaction between Origin and Artius. This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or exchange, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or exchange, any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or exchange would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Artius has filed the Registration Statement, which includes a preliminary proxy statement to be distributed to holders of Artius’s ordinary shares in connection with Artius’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by Artius’s stockholders with respect to the proposed transaction and other matters as described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of securities to be issued to Artius’s and Origin’s stockholders in connection with the proposed transaction. After the Registration Statement has been declared effective, Artius will mail a definitive proxy statement, when available, to its stockholders. Investors and security holders and other interested parties are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus, any amendments thereto and any other documents filed with the SEC carefully and in their entirety when they become available because they will contain important information about Artius, Origin and the proposed transaction. The documents relating to the proposed transaction (when they are available) can be obtained free of charge from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Free copies of these documents, once available, may also be obtained from Artius by directing a request to: Artius Management LLC, 3 Columbus Circle, Suite 2215 New York, New York 10019. PARTICIPANTS IN SOLICITATION Artius, Origin and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Artius’ shareholders in connection with the proposed transaction. Information about Artius’s directors and executive officers and their ownership of Artius’s securities is set forth in the Registration Statement described above. Additional information regarding the interests of those persons and other persons who may be deemed participants in the proposed transaction may be obtained by reading other documents Artius has filed, or will file, with the SEC regarding the Proposed Business Combination, including the definitive proxy statement when it becomes available. You may obtain free copies of these documents as described in the preceding paragraph. NON-SOLICITATION This presentation is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the potential transaction and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of Artius, the combined company or Origin, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. USE OF PROJECTIONS This presentation contains Origin’s projected financial information. Such projected financial information is forward-looking and is for illustrative purposes only. It should not be relied upon as being indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying such projected financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to many significant business, economic, competitive and other risks and uncertainties. Refer to “Forward-Looking Statements” above. Actual results may differ materially from the results presented in such projected financial information, and the inclusion of such information in this presentation should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results reflected in such projections will be achieved. FINANCIAL INFORMATION; NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES The financial information and data contained in this presentation are unaudited and do not conform to Regulation S-X. Accordingly, such information and data may not be included, may be adjusted or may be presented differently in any proxy statement, prospectus or registration statement or other report or document to be filed or furnished by Artius with the SEC. In addition to financial measures included in this presentation that are calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and EBITDA margins. Artius and Origin believe these non- GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Origin’s financial condition and results of operations. Origin’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with traditional GAAP financial and operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of its performance, for budgeting and planning purposes, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies and to communicate with investors. Origin does not place undue reliance on these non-GAAP financial measures, and they should not be considered as substitutes for other measures of financial condition and results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income (loss) is not included in this presentation because the items that impact net income (loss) are outside of Origin’s control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) is not available without unreasonable effort. You should review Origin’s audited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, which will be included in a combined registration statement and proxy statement to be filed with the SEC. TRADEMARKS This presentation contains trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of Artius, Origin and other companies which are the property of their respective owners. 2


Risk Factors Summary Investing in this transaction involves a high degree of risk. Below is a summary of certain factors that make an investment in this transaction speculative or risky. This summary is not comprehensive. Additional discussion of the risks and uncertainties summarized in this risk factor summary, and other risks and uncertainties relevant to this transaction, are included under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in the proxy statement/prospectus related to this transaction. Origin is an early stage company with a history of losses and its future profitability is uncertain. Origin may be delayed in or unable to procure necessary capital equipment. Origin has not produced its products in large commercial quantities. Any decline in the value of carbon credits associated with Origin's products could harm Origin's results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. Origin expects to rely on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of its near-term revenue. Origin's offtake agreements with customers include termination, liquidated damages and/or advance repayment provisions that may be triggered if Origin fails to timely complete plant construction or commence its commercial operations. Origin's products may not achieve market success. Origin is subject to U.S. and foreign anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws and regulations. Origin could face criminal liability and other serious consequences for violations, which would harm Origin's business. Origin's operating plan may require Origin to source feedstock and supplies internationally, and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and changes to international trade agreements, tariffs, import and excise duties, taxes or other governmental rules and regulations could adversely affect Origin's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Origin's business relies on proprietary information and other intellectual property, and Origin's failure to protect its intellectual property rights could harm its competitive advantages with respect to the use, manufacturing, sale or other commercialization of Origin's processes, technologies and products, which may have an adverse effect on Origin's results of operations and financial condition. Origin may face patent infringement and other intellectual property claims that could be costly to defend, result in injunctions and significant damage awards or other costs (including indemnification of third parties or costly licensing arrangements, if licenses are available at all) and limit Origin's ability to use certain key technologies in the future or require development of non-infringing products or technologies, which may cause Origin to incur significant unexpected costs, prevent Origin from commercializing its products and otherwise harm its business. Origin relies on trade secrets to protect its technology, and Origin's failure to maintain trade secret protection could limit its ability to compete. Origin's management has limited experience in operating a public company. 3
