Slide 11 Montana Technologies | October 2023 July 11, 2023 The Associated Press (2) EPA Enforcing Stricter Limits on Hydrofluorocarbons (“HFCs”) NEW GOVERNMENT LEGISLATION IS FURTHERING THE NEED FOR AN AIRJOULE tm SYSTEM June 24, 2023 GlobeNewswire (1) ASHRAE Approves Airborne Infection Risk Mitigation Standard for Buildings July 21, 2023 The Washington Post (3) U.S. Government Proposes Rule to Make Water Heaters More Efficient What are HFCs? • Highly potent greenhouse gases commonly used in refrigerators and air conditioners What is being done to limit HFCs? • More than 130 countries have signed a global agreement to phase down production and use of HFCs by 85% over the next 13 years What does the latest rule do? • This rule builds on a 10% reduction required by the end of this year and requires a 40% overall reduction through 2028 • Officials said refrigeration and air conditioning systems sold in the U.S. will emit far fewer HFCs as a result of the rule, the second step in a 15 - year phasedown of chemicals that once dominated refrigeration and cooling What is ASHRAE Standard 241? • Establishes minimum requirements to reduce the risk of disease transmission by exposure to infectious aerosols in buildings Why is the new standard important? • Standard 241 breaks new ground by setting requirements for equivalent clean airflow rate, the flow rate of pathogen free air flow into occupied areas of a building that would have the same effect as the total of outdoor air, filtration of indoor air, and air disinfection by technologies such as germicidal ultraviolet light ─ This approach allows the user of the standard flexibility to select combinations of technologies to comply with the standard that best satisfy their economic constraints and energy use goals Explanation of the new proposal: • Under the terms of the proposal, new electric storage water heaters in the most common size would have to use heat pumps and some gas - fired instantaneous heaters would have to use condensing technology Implications of the new proposal: • Water heating accounts for about 13% of U.S. consumers’ annual residential energy use and utility costs • The change would reduce harmful carbon dioxide emissions by 501 million metric tons over a 30 - year period, while saving Americans $198 billion over the same timespan, equivalent to $11.4 billion on their energy and water bills each year, or an average $1,868 over the life of their electric heater Note: AirJoule tm is a dehumidifier that provides for high moisture - removal efficiency while using less electrical energy compared to conventional dehumidifiers. 1. “ASHRAE Approves Groundbreaking Standard to Reduce the Risk of Disease Transmission in Indoor Spaces,” GlobeNewswire.

WATER OUTPUT: 3. COOLING Water Desorption in closed chamber 3 4 5 6 7 1 2 3 4 AirJoule tm draws humid air into the open chamber Proprietary MOF Coated contactors adsorb water vapor in open chamber Simultaneous with step 2, the heat of adsorption is transferred to closed chamber to assist desorption Proprietary air pump draws vacuum on the closed chamber 5 Proprietary vacuum compressor pulls water vapor from the contactors in the closed chamber and slightly pressurizes it Proprietary condenser produces pure water Alternating cycle between chambers happens every 5 minutes 6 7 1 2 INPUT: HUMID AIR Water Adsorption in open chamber OUTPUT: 2. DEHUMIDIFIED AIR

Slide 15 Montana Technologies | October 2023 THE TECHNOLOGY BREAKTHROUGH AIRJOULE tm ENABLES THE AMAZING CHARACTERISTICS OF ENGINEERED SUPER - POROUS MATERIALS TO BE REALIZED MOFs are super adsorbent materials Thermal constraints have limited the potential of MOFs in historical dehumidification efforts First, when MOFs take up (adsorb) water vapor, they generate heat (heat of adsorption). This heat goes into the airstream…not good for cooling Next, the MOF must release (desorb) the water vapor to continue the cycle and historical efforts have required substantial energy to provide heat to do this…not good for economics AirJoule tm solves the issues of energetics AirJoule tm ’s proprietary pressure swing system integrates adsorption and desorption functions, so the heat of adsorption can be used to assist desorption under vacuum, eliminating the need for additional energy The result is a dramatic reduction in energy and cost, production of water, and reduction of CO 2 emissions

All references to the "company," "we," "us" or "our" refer to Montana Technologies and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the Potential Business Combination . The risks presented below are non - exhaustive descriptions of certain of the general risks related to the business of Montana Technologies and XPDB and the Potential Business Combination, and such list is not exhaustive . The list below has been prepared solely for purposes of inclusion in these Presentation Materials and not for any other purpose . You should carefully consider these risks and uncertainties and should carry out your own diligence and consult with your own financial and legal advisors concerning the risks presented by the Potential Business Combination . Risks relating to the business of Montana Technologies, the Potential Business Combination and the business of XPDB following the consummation of the Potential Business Combination will be disclosed in future documents filed or furnished by Montana Technologies or XPDB with the SEC, including the documents filed or furnished in connection with the Potential Business Combination . The risks presented in such filings will be consistent with SEC filings typically relating to a public company, including with respect to the business and securities of Montana Technologies and XPDB and the Potential Business Combination, and may differ significantly from, and be more extensive than, those presented below . Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry • We have not yet commenced planned business line activities and have a limited operating history, which may make it difficult to evaluate the prospects for our future viability. There is no assurance that we will successfully execute our proposed strategy. • We will initially depend on revenue generated from a single product and in the foreseeable future will be significantly dependent on a limited number of products. • We face significant barriers in our attempts to deploy our technology and may not be able to successfully develop our technology. If we cannot successfully overcome those barriers, it could adversely impact our business and operations. • Our commercialization strategy relies heavily on our relationships with BASF, CATL and other third parties and partners who may have interests that diverge from ours and who may not be easily replaced if our relationships terminate, which could adversely impact our business and financial condition. • Demand for our products may not grow or may grow at a slower rate than we anticipate • Our financial results depend on successful project execution and may be adversely affected by cost overruns, failure to meet customer schedules, failure of our suppliers or partners to fulfill their obligations to us or other execution issues. • COVID - 19 and any future widespread public health crisis could negatively affect various aspects of our business, make it more difficult for us to meet our obligations to our future customers and result in reduced demand for our products . • Any financial or economic crisis, or perceived threat of such a crisis, including a significant decrease in consumer confidence, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations . • Manufacturing issues not identified prior to design finalization, long - lead procurement and/or fabrication could potentially be realized during production or fabrication and may impact our deployment cost and schedule, which could adversely impact our business . • Our sales and profitability may be impacted by, and we may incur liabilities as a result of, warranty claims, product defects, recalls, improper use of our products, or our failure to meet performance guarantees or customer safety standards . • Increased scrutiny of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters, including our completion of certain ESG initiatives, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, result in reputational harm and negatively impact the assessments made by ESG - focused investors when evaluating us . • Physical and transition risks arising from climate change, including risks posed by the increased frequency or severity of natural and catastrophic events and regulations or policies related to climate change, may negatively impact our business and operations . • Our business and current and future production facilities are subject to liabilities and operating restrictions arising from environmental, health and safety laws, regulations, and permits . We will be subject to environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in multiple jurisdictions, which impose substantial compliance requirements on our operations . Our operating costs could be significantly increased in order to comply with new or more stringent regulatory standards in the jurisdictions in which we operate . • We expect to be dependent on a limited number of customers and end markets . A decline in revenue from, or the loss of, any significant customer, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results . RISK FACTORS

• We may depend on sole - source and limited - source suppliers for key components and products. If we are unable to source these components and products on a timely basis or at acceptable prices, we will not be able to deliver our products to our customers and production time and production costs could increase, which may adversely affect our business. • We may face supply chain competition, including competition from businesses in other industries, which could result in insufficient inventory and negatively affect our results of operations. • We are subject to risks associated with changing technology, product innovation, manufacturing techniques, operational flexibility and business continuity, which could place us at a competitive disadvantage. • We expect to incur research and development costs and devote resources to identifying and commercializing new products, which could reduce our profitability and may never result in revenue to us. • Our long - term success will depend ultimately on implementing our business strategy and operational plan, as well as our ability to generate revenues, achieve and maintain profitability and develop positive cash flows. • We may lack sufficient funds to achieve our planned business objectives. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on (i) continued financial support from our shareholders and other related parties, (ii) raising capital via external financing and/or (iii) attaining profitable operations. We may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or other means. Any inability to access the capital or financial markets may limit our ability to fund our ongoing operations and execute our business plan to pursue investments that we may rely on for future growth. • Actual capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns may differ significantly from those we have anticipated and future development activities may not result in profitable operations. • Our long - term success depends, in part, on our ability to negotiate and enter into sales agreements with, and deliver our products to, customers on commercially viable terms. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in securing such agreements. • Exchange rate fluctuations may materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. • If we fail to retain our key personnel or if we fail to attract additional qualified personnel, we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our business could suffer. • We may face significant competition from established companies with longer operating histories, customer incumbency advantages, access to and influence with governmental authorities and more capital resources than we do. • Any failure by our management to properly manage our growth could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. • Damage to our reputation or brand image could adversely affect our business. • The occurrence of significant events against which we may not be fully insured could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. • The threat of global economic, capital markets and credit disruptions pose risks to our business. • Inflation may increase our operating costs. • Our business may be adversely affected by force majeure events outside of our control, including labor unrest, civil disorder, war, subversive activities or sabotage, extreme weather conditions, fires, floods, explosions or other catastrophes or epidemics. • If the estimates and assumptions we use to determine the size of our total addressable market are inaccurate, our future growth rate may be affected and the potential growth of our business may be limited. Risks Related to Legal, Compliance and Regulations • There are risks associated with operating in foreign countries, including those related to economic, social and/or political instability, and changes of law affecting foreign companies operating in that country . In particular, we may suffer reputational harm due to our business dealings in certain countries that have previously been associated, or perceived to have been associated, with human rights issues . Increased scrutiny and changing expectations from investors regarding ESG considerations may result in the decrease of the trading price of our securities . • Our business may require numerous permits, licenses and other approvals from various governmental agencies, and the failure to obtain or maintain any of them, or delays in obtaining them, could materially adversely affect us . • Our failure to comply with applicable anti - corruption, anti - bribery, anti - money laundering, antitrust, foreign investment and similar laws and regulations could negatively impact our reputation and results of operations . • Our business could be adversely affected by trade wars, trade tariffs or other trade barriers . RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Technology • Our patent applications may not result in issued patents, and our issued patents may not provide adequate protection, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours. • Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights may undermine our competitive position, and litigation to our intellectual property rights may be costly. • We may need to defend ourselves against claims that we infringe, have misappropriated or otherwise violate the intellectual property rights of others, which may be time - consuming and would cause us to incur substantial costs . Third - party claims that we are infringing on intellectual property, whether successful or not, could subject us to costly and time - consuming litigation or expensive licenses, and our business could be adversely affected . • Cyber - attacks or a failure in our information technology and data security infrastructure could adversely affect our business and operations . • A number of foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the United States . Therefore, our intellectual property rights may not be as strong or as easily enforced outside of the United States and efforts to protect against the infringement, misappropriation or unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights, technology and other proprietary rights may be difficult and costly outside of the United States . Furthermore, legal standards relating to the intellectual property rights are uncertain and any changes in, or unexpected interpretations of, intellectual property laws may compromise our ability to enforce our patent rights, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights . • We rely on licenses to use the intellectual property rights of third parties, which are incorporated into our products, services and offerings . Risks Related to Being a Public Company • The market price of shares of our common stock may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance. You may lose some or all of your investment. • Since the redemption by XPDB’s public stockholders, there may be increased volatility in the trading of XPDB common stock due to a lower public float. • We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. • If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or publish negative reports, the market price of our common stock could decline. • Our ability to timely raise capital in the future may be limited, or may be unavailable on acceptable terms, if at all. Our failure to raise capital when needed could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Debt issued to raise additional capital may reduce the value of our common stock. • Our issuance of additional shares of common stock or convertible securities could make it difficult for another company to acquire us, may dilute your ownership of us and could adversely affect our stock price. • Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our common stock by us or our existing stockholders in the public market following the closing of the Potential Business Combination could cause the market price for our common stock to decline. • The requirements of being a public company, including compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the requirements of the Sarbanes - Oxley Act and the requirements of the Nasdaq, may strain our resources, increase our costs and require additional attention of management, and we may be unable to comply with these requirements in a timely or cost - effective manner. • We are an “emerging growth company.” The reduced public company reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors. • Our management has limited experience in operating a public company. • Changes to, or changes to interpretations of, the U.S. federal, state, local or other jurisdictional tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Risks Related to the Potential Business Combination • XPDB’s stockholders will have a reduced ownership and voting interest after the Potential Business Combination and will exercise less influence over management. • The market price of shares of the post - combination company’s common stock after the Potential Business Combination may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting the prices of shares of XPDB Class A common stock. • XPDB has not obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, and consequently, there is no assurance from an independent source that the merger consideration is fair to its stockholders from a financial point of view. RISK FACTORS

• If the Potential Business Combination’s benefits do not meet the expectations of financial analysts, the market price of our common stock may decline . • There can be no assurance that the post - combination company’s common stock will be approved for listing on the Nasdaq or that the post - combination company will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq . • The consummation of the Potential Business Combination is subject to a number of conditions and if those conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Merger Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the Potential Business Combination may not be completed • The parties to the merger agreement may amend the terms of the merger agreement or waive one or more of the conditions to the closing of the Potential Business Combination, and the exercise of discretion by our directors and officers in agreeing to changes to the terms of or waivers of closing conditions in the merger agreement may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the merger agreement or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in the best interests of our stockholders . • Termination of the merger agreement could negatively impact Montana Technologies and XPDB . • Montana Technologies will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the Potential Business Combination is pending • XPDB’s directors and officers may have interests in the Potential Business Combination different from the interests of XPDB’s stockholders . • Montana Technologies’ directors and officers may have interests in the Potential Business Combination different from the interests of Montana Technologies’ equity holders . • The Sponsor may have interests in the Potential Business Combination different from the interests of XPDB’s stockholders . • Because Montana Technologies will become a publicly traded company through the Potential Business Combination rather than an underwritten initial public offering, the scope of due diligence conducted may be different from that conducted by an underwriter in an underwritten initial public offering. • The Potential Business Combination will result in changes to the board of directors that may affect our strategy. • The merger agreement contains provisions that may discourage other companies from trying to acquire Montana Technologies for greater merger consideration. • The merger agreement contains provisions that may discourage XPDB from seeking an alternative business combination. • The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this proxy statement/prospectus is preliminary and the actual financial condition and results of operations after the Potential Business Combination may differ materially. • XPDB and Montana Technologies will incur transaction costs in connection with the Potential Business Combination. • XPDB’s stockholders will have their rights as stockholders governed by the post - combination company’s organizational documents. • The Sponsor has agreed to vote in favor of each of the proposals presented at the Special Meeting, regardless of how XPDB’s public stockholders vote. • XPDB’s and Montana Technologies’ ability to consummate the Potential Business Combination, and the operations of the post - combination company following the Potential Business Combination, may be materially adversely affected by the recent coronavirus (COVID - 19 ) pandemic . • BofA Securities, Inc . (“BofA”), one of the underwriters in XPDB’s IPO, along with Barclays Capital Inc . , was to be compensated, in part, on a deferred basis for already - rendered underwriting services in connection with XPDB’s IPO, yet it waived such compensation without any consideration from XPDB and, effective as of June 20 , 2023 , resigned and withdrew from its role in the Potential Business Combination . As a result, BofA disclaims any responsibility for this proxy statement/prospectus and will not be associated with the disclosure or underlying business analysis related to the Potential Business Combination, which could result in an increased number of XPDB’s stockholders voting against the Potential Business Combination or seeking to redeem their shares for cash .
