New Autonomous System

Zipline Unveils

Capable of Quiet, Fast and Precise Home Delivery

Zipline unveiled its new platform that p r o v i d e s q u i e t , f a s t a n d p r e c i s e autonomous delivery directly to homes in cities and suburbs The company’s next generation home delivery platform is practically silent (designed to sound like wind rustling leaves), and is expected to deliver up to seven times as fast as traditional automobile delivery, completing 10-mile deliveries in about 10 minutes

Zipline has spent the last several years building and fine tuning its next generation technology, Platform 2 (P2), to provide an optimal customer experience at scale Unlike other drone delivery services, Zipline’s drones (Zips) fly more than 300 feet above the ground and are nearly inaudible When the Zip arrives at its destination, it hovers safely and quietly at that altitude, while its f u l l y a u t o n o m o u s d e l i v e r y d r o i d maneuvers down a tether, steers to the correct location and gently drops off its package to areas as small as a patio table or the front steps of a home This i s a l l m a d e p o s s i b l e t h r o u g h m a j o r innovations in aircraft and propeller design S e v e r a l b u s i n e s s e s a c r o s s t h e healthcare and restaurant sectors have already signed on to use Zipline’s new home delivery service Sweetgreen is partnering with Zipline to further its mission of connecting people to real food in the Unites States, while moving a step closer to its pledge to be carbonneutral by 2027 By ordering through Zipline's marketplace, Sweetgreen customers can get their orders using 97 percent less energy than traditional automotive methods

“The future of delivery is faster, more sustainable and creates broader access, all of which provides improved value for our customers,” said Jonathan N e m a n , C o - F o u n d e r a n d C h i e f Executive Officer of Sweetgreen “We couldn’t be more excited to work with Zipline to complement our delivery strategy Zipline’s sustainable technolo g y a n d a b i l i t y t o r e a c h c u s t o m e r s quickly, with a great delivery experience, will help us give our customers what they want, when they want it ”

M i c h i g a n M e d i c i n e w i l l u s e Zipline’s new service to more than double the number of prescriptions it fills each year through its in-house pharmacy Intermountain Health will use it to d e l i v e r p r e s c r i p t i o n s t o p a t i e n t s ’ h o m e s i n t h e S a l t L a k e C i t y m e t r o area MultiCare Health System plans to use the new platform to expedite diagnostics and deliver prescriptions and m e d i c a l d e v i c e s t h r o u g h o u t MultiCare’s network of facilities, including hospitals, laboratories and doctors’ offices And Zipline’s first customer, the Government of Rwanda, will use t h e c o m p a n y ’ s n e w h o m e d e l i v e r y service to enable urban aerial last-mile delivery to homes, hotels and health facilities in Kigali and elsewhere in the country

Z i p l i n e ’ s e n d - t o - e n d s o l u t i o n seamlessly integrates with a business’s current operations That includes its dual-use docking and charging hardware, software that easily works with t h i r d - p a r t y i n v e n t o r y m a n a g e m e n t and ordering systems, an intuitive app that allows order tracking down to the second, and an autonomy system that

has already guided the flight paths of 40 million commercial miles Zipline d e s i g n e d i t s d o c k i n g a n d c h a r g i n g hardware to have a light footprint that can be attached to any building or set up as a freestanding structure A Zip can be easily loaded by a business’ employee who can send off orders in seconds, right from their location, without even having to leave the kitchen, pharmacy or doctors’ office Businesses can offer Zipline’s home delivery service in a variety of ways, including native integrations into apps and websites, white labeled opportunities, and by j o i n i n g Z i p l i n e ’ s m a r k e t p l a c e Customers can make on-demand orders or schedule the exact time they’d like their package to arrive, down to the second

Each P2 Zip has a 10-mile service radius while carrying a six to eight pound payload for out-andback deliveries from a single dock Alternatively, it can also fly up to 24 miles one way from dock to d o c k , c h a r g i n g a t e a c h d o c k before picking up its next delivery Because Zips can move from dock t o d o c k , Z i p l i n e c a n d y n a m i c a l l y respond to peak order times – ensuring there’s enough delivery capacity for an urgent prescription delivery or a busy Friday pizza night or weekday lunch rush.

O v e r t h e l a s t d e c a d e , g l o b a l demand for instant delivery has skyr o c k e t e d , b u t t h e t e c h n o l o g y w e ’ r e using to deliver is 100 years old. We’re still using the same 3,000-pound, gas c o m b u s t i o n v e h i c l e s , d r i v e n b y humans, to make billions of deliveries t h a t u s u a l l y w e i g h l e s s t h a n f i v e pounds. It’s slow, it’s expensive, and it’s t e r r i b l e f o r t h e p l a n e t , ” s a i d K e l l e r Rinaudo Cliffton, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Zipline. “Our new service is changing that and will finally m a k e d e l i v e r i e s w o r k f o r y o u a n d

around your schedule We have built the closest thing to teleportation ever created – a smooth, ultrafast, conveni e n t a n d t r u l y m a g i c a l a u t o n o m o u s logistics system that serves all people equally, wherever they are ”

Zipline plans to conduct high-volu m e f l i g h t t e s t s t h i s y e a r i n v o l v i n g more than 10,000 test flights using about 100 aircraft The first customer deployment of P2 will follow shortly after that Zipline’s record for safety has been proven over the past seven years o f o p e r a t i o n s a n d o v e r m o r e t h a n 500,000 commercial flights Its long-

range platform, P1, has autonomously flown 40 million miles worth of commercial deliveries through all kinds of weather without a safety incident – the v a s t m a j o r i t y o f w h i c h w e r e f l i g h t s flown beyond visual line of sight.

Zipline has received Part 135 certification, is authorized to complete the longest-range, on-demand commercial drone flights in America, and recently received FAA approval to enable its onboard autonomous detect and avoid system.

Zipline completed more deliveries in 2022 than in all previous years combined, and is planning to complete about one million deliveries by the end of 2023. By 2025, Zipline expects to o p e r a t e m o r e f l i g h t s a n n u a l l y t h a n most airlines.

CDD: How do you think that your sustainability and clean water access work affects the company’s growth?

SL: Liquid I.V.’s product works, and in some ways, it feels like it sells itself. But we also live in a time where most consumers want to know that the product that they’re buying is not just good for them, but good for their communities and the planet. I think Liquid I.V.’s product donation work, clean water access projects, and dedication to sustainable business practices make consumers feel good about buying Liquid I V products

SL: We started our product donation program in 2015 and gave the Los Angeles Mission shelter 500 servings of Liquid I V for its houseless population To date, we have donated over 36 million servings to those in need
