We also recognize the importance of continuing to set goals for sustainability and to increase transparency around GHG
emissions reporting, and thus, we expect to make additional reports and commitments for our businesses in the years to
come. Therefore in this Sustainability Report we have included, for the first time, Scope 2 emissions reduction/offset
targets.

Woodville Wind Turbine Project to Reduce Emissions, Provide Community Aid

This artist rendering shows the future view of Woodville’s office once the three turbines have been constructed.

Our Magnesia Specialties Lime operation has entered into an agreement that will decrease the site’s greenhouse gas
emissions and provide valuable community assistance for decades to come.

Reached in the final weeks of 2021, the deal with industrial power company One Energy will bring three wind turbines to
the division’s Woodville, Ohio, operation that are projected to lower the site’s Scope 2 GHG emissions by up to 10,000
metric tonnes per year.

“We’ve been looking into this for some time, but we wanted to fully understand the technology and its impacts in order
to make sure this move would be sustainable for us,” said Wade Weaver, the site’s general manager. “We’ve worked
closely with One Energy and we’ve seen the studies. We believe this project will greatly help us lower our carbon
footprint.”

Set to be constructed in mid-2022 on a reclaimed section of the property, each turbine base will stand about 260 feet tall
and feature three, 143-foot blades.
