Figure 1 Site Rendering of NOVONIX’s New Facility BRISBANE, Australia, Dec. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NOVONIX Limited (NASDAQ: NVX, ASX: NVX) (“NOVONIX” or “the Company”), a leading battery materials and technology company, announced today a conditional commitment to NOVONIX through one if its wholly-owned U.S.-based subsidiaries (“Borrower”), from the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) through the Loan Programs Office (“LPO”) for a direct loan of up to US$754.8 million ($692 million in principal and $62.8 million in capitalized interest) to be applied towards partially financing a proposed new facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee (the “New Facility”). The proposed financing is being offered under the DOE LPO’s Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (“ATVM”) Loan Program. If finalized, the loan would be applied towards partially financing the construction of the New Facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to manufacture synthetic graphite primarily for use in electric vehicle (“EV”) batteries. At full capacity, the new facility is expected to produce approximately 31,500 tonnes per annum (“tpa”) of synthetic graphite, which can support the production of lithium-ion batteries for approximately 325,000 EVs each year. China currently has over 95% market share for battery grade graphite 1 . The new facility is expected to reach full production capacity by the end of 2028 and is anticipated to create 450 full-time operational jobs and 500 construction jobs. Dr. Chris Burns, CEO of NOVONIX said, “This announcement is the culmination of years of hard work and is another critical milestone for our anode materials business towards our target production of 150,000 tpa in North America. This conditional commitment from the government to invest in our new facility continues to underscore the focus on localizing critical materials in the battery supply chain, such as graphite. Recent announcements from China to further scrutinize the export of battery-grade graphite to the United States highlight the importance of domestic production of high-performance, battery-grade synthetic graphite. Our offtake agreements with strong partners have strengthened our leadership in onshoring the synthetic graphite supply chain in North America and supporting the path towards U.S. energy independence.” This year, NOVONIX has signed binding offtake agreements to supply synthetic graphite to Panasonic Energy 2 , Stellantis 3 , and PowerCo 4 . To meet this demand, the Company has previously discussed plans to build a new facility in the southeastern United States which could expand up to 75,000 tpa or production capacity. This proposed ATVM Program loan would support the construction of the first phase of the New Facility and the initial production capacity of 31,500 tpa. NOVONIX plans to subsequently expand the production capacity of this site to its target of 75,000 tpa of synthetic graphite production, any such expansion being dependent on customer demand and access to additional financing. NOVONIX’s Riverside facility, also located in Chattanooga, is poised to become the first large-scale production site dedicated to high-performance synthetic graphite for the battery sector in North America. It is slated to begin commercial production in 2025, with plans to grow output to 20,000 tpa to meet current customer commitments. Previously, the Company announced that the DOE’s Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains (“MESC”) awarded the Company a US$100 million grant 5 and that it was selected for a US$103 million investment tax credit 6 towards the funding of the Riverside facility. Key terms of the DOE’s conditional commitment, including those set forth in a non-binding term sheet attached to the conditional commitment letter signed by the DOE, NOVONIX and the Borrower, include: The loan is for a maximum amount of US$754.8 million, which includes up to US$692.0 million in principal and up to US$62.8 million in capitalized interest and will be structured in two tranches based on a phased completion of infrastructure and production lines from a total eligible investment of US$943.6 million. The loan will be comprised of two primary tranches that will have terms of 15 years and 10 years, respectively, from the date of first payment of each. The first tranche will be to support the site and infrastructure for the New Facility and 21,000 tpa of production capacity, while the second tranche will support an additional 10,500 tpa of production capacity. An additional tranche to fund eligible project costs will be subject to repayment upon receipt of any proceeds derived from the monetization of any tax credit received by the Company or the Borrower related to the New Facility under the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Allocation Program. The loan will be guaranteed by the Company and secured by a first priority security interest in all assets of the Borrower, equity interests in and, with certain exceptions, assets of certain of NOVONIX’s existing subsidiaries. Each advance of loan proceeds will have a separate interest rate set by the Federal Financing Bank under the general supervision of the Secretary of Treasury at the time that the respective advance is made. While this conditional commitment demonstrates DOE’s intent to finance the New Facility, DOE must complete an environmental review, and the Company must satisfy certain technical, commercial, legal, environmental, and financial conditions before DOE can decide whether to enter into definitive financing documents and fund the loan. A binding loan agreement from DOE is also subject to the satisfactory completion of due diligence by DOE, satisfaction of conditions precedent specified in the term sheet, approval of the NOVONIX Board, receipt of required governmental and third-party consents, and the negotiation and execution of binding loan documents. Once binding loan documents have been signed, NOVONIX and the Borrower will need to satisfy certain conditions precedent prior to loan closing, and / or prior to first and subsequent advances of loan proceeds. This announcement has been authorised for release by Admiral Robert J Natter, USN Ret., Chairman.

The focus of the technology leadership list has shifted from digital transformation two years ago through hybrid technologies in 2023 to this year’s emphasis on hardware-based innovations. Consequently, some previously listed software players have dropped out of the top rankings amid increasing competition and consolidation in the market for digital solutions. Reflecting on this trend, OrbitMI’s Chief Operating Officer Youn Lee says: “The evolving priorities in maritime technology—like cleaner fuels, automation, and greener infrastructure—are driving greater competition. OrbitMI’s repeated inclusion on this list reflects our resilience and leadership in a dynamic market. Our flexible and scalable SaaS model, coupled with a strong focus on partnerships and sustainability, ensures we stay ahead by enabling faster adoption of innovative digital solutions.” Source: OrbitMI
BLOOMINGTON — November is National Novel Writing Month. The official website, NaNoWriMo.org , challenges writers to write 50,000 words in the 30-day month, for either a new novel or for a literary work that’s already in progress. By the numbers, a draft of that length roughly types out at 1,612 words every day. To even a modestly wordy columnist like myself, that can seem like a lot. One piece of advice that often bears repeating is that writers literally just need to start writing, and to stop getting hung up on writing the first sentence perfectly from the start. I know I've needed to hear that. That point was also echoed in an interview with a self-published author in Normal who's taken this month's writing challenge seven times before. She was among other area authors who dialed in or sat down for interviews with me to provide writing tips for National Novel Writing Month. All below authors also attended a Local Author Fair event hosted Nov. 9 at the Bloomington Public Library. Shown with her cat Biscuit is Sue Rovens. 'In A Corner, Darkly' Sue Rovens said she has participated in National Novel Writing Month seven times. She has also published seven pieces of writing: five novels and two collections of short stories. The 60-year-old Normal resident said writing is a solitary activity for herself, and most other people. The NaNoWriMo organization, however, can connect writers with online communities, like coffee chat rooms, Rovens said, adding that groups can be created be for writers who are 50 and older, or who write certain genres, like science fiction and horror. What drew her to the NaNoWriMo organization, Rovens said, is, “I saw that there isn’t really any winners or losers.” She said the 50,000 words written in a month could go into a novel, screenplay or poetry. “It can be anything you want it to be,” said Rovens. “it’s just an avenue for people who want to be aspiring writers and professional writers to kind of join together in the month of November and create something.” She said she’s used it for first drafts of her novels, and to complete them in 30 days. And, it helped her keep a word count. Rovens said she didn’t participate in in NaNoWriMo this year because she is working on a manuscript for the third volume of her series, “In A Corner, Darkly,” and plans to release it next year. She said it’s a collection of 15 short stories that run the gamut from old-school horror to apocalyptic themes, plus some sci-fi speculation. Rovens said she published her first book in 2012, and has been writing since 2009. “I’m no Stephen King, but I’ve been doing it a while," she said. Rovens’ appreciation for King, and Jack Ketchum, is demonstrated in the short story “Funeral Games” in the second volume of “In A Corner, Darkly.” It concludes with a digestible fright, before the volume turns toward even darker corners of thought in later stories. When asked to share writing tips, Rovens said she always runs into other writers who’ve told her, “I can’t ever get past the first paragraph,” because they keep editing it. She said you must write the first draft. You’ll make all kinds of mistakes, but that’s OK — she said to let that first draft exist. “If you’re never happy with those first few sentences, you’ll never get farther than that first page,” she said. Rovens’ series “In A Corner, Darkly” is available at Bobzbay Books in downtown Bloomington, and via Amazon. Feinman Ink & Feather Comics Anthony Feinman, of Bloomington, said in order to independently publish his works as a cartoonist, he has “do it all.” He said he takes on tasks including writing, illustration, pagination and more for the comic book series named “ASININE.” Feinman co-created and co-writes the series with his wife, Julia Simack , a fine artist who specializes in oil painting . It’s published by Ink & Feathers Comics , where Feinman serves an art director . Feinman said the third issue of "ASININE" is planned for release in late 2025. He also said he’s working on republishing his father’s sci-fi novel, “Teddy Bear Conspiracy.” Another comic Feinman illustrated and co-authored with Andrew Hall is “Blitz Howser: The Lost Strips,” which was first introduced as a webcomic and has a namesake character similar to Zap Brannigan from the “Futurama” TV series. He said "Blitz Howser" will also be rereleased. Feinman said he’s published webcomics on and off over the years. He noted that three or four comic panels is a limited amount of space to tell a story in, and that the style of prose used in comics is closer to scriptwriting, when compared to novel writing. Feinman said the second issue of “ASININE” satirizes the comic book industry and is inspired by personal experiences attending comic book conventions, with a little exaggeration. He said comics have long been considered as media for children, but cartoonists consider themselves artists, too. Feinman said “Calvin & Hobbes” creator Bill Watterson wanted to change how people view comic art, and he pushed the envelope with his work. In the modern, digital age, Feinman said it’s hard to find your voice, and selling books is now more cumbersome. In the 1990s, he said, books sold more easily; now, authors have to compete more for readers' attention. “So many people are expressing themselves, which is absolutely wonderful that people are able to get their stuff out there,” said Feinman. He said there are still active readers, but they’re also into television, video games and other media. His best advice, Feinman said, is if you’ve got something in your head, “get that out first.” He said there are many ideas going though his head, and it’s a matter of working on them one at a time. “Do what you’re passionate about, and then everything else will come afterward,” he said. He also said it’s fun to go to events like the author fair at BPL, where he can encounter other creators. “You don’t know if the person next door is someone who’s written a novel you may fall in love with,” he said. Direct ordering of Feinman’s comics is available at ifcomics.com ; his comics can also be ordered on Amazon. Lovell 'Catharsis' Rhys Lovell, of Bloomington, said he has no training as a writer. The artistic director at Heartland Theatre Co. said he has written two screenplays and a novel, but acting is his main thing. The screenplays include “Pangaea Fell” and “The Imaginist.” In October 2023, Lovell released a techno-thriller novel, “Catharsis.” It’s also available as an audiobook. The plot of the novel was inspired by his discovery of “rage rooms,” Lovell said, which is a place where people can engage in “destruction therapy.” He said he discovered rage rooms because his younger brother, Thad, was experiencing intermittent explosive disorder, and he didn’t know how to help him. Lovell said he has a close relationship with his brother, who is in a much better place today. For his novel, Lovell, 59, said he imagined what a rage room would look like if technology were more sophisticated. “Instead of paying $50 bucks and they give you a baseball bat, (and) you go in a room and you bust up old computer parts, what if now you're now facing off against the person at whom your wrath is directed?” asked Lovell. “Catharsis” also dives into themes of cloning and fabricating replicants of people by stealing their DNA. Lovell said in his novel, only wealthy elites can afford the services offered by a company that's also called Catharsis. In this fictional world, the company's customers are offered to kill clones of their choosing — but the replication technology goes awry. He said writing a story that’s set in the future is, in many ways, much easier, because you are doing that world-building and inventing stuff that doesn’t exist. “You can’t really get fact checked on it,” he said. His next novel will be titled “Monstruo,” the Spanish word for monster. The main character, Arturo, is loosely based on the drug lord El Chapo, and readers will understand the abuse Arturo was subjected to as a boy, Lovell said. When world building, Lovell said sometimes that’s imagining a world we haven’t seen yet, like in “Catharsis.” Lovell said writers have suggested to “write what you know,” but on the flip side is the advice, “write what you want to know more about.” “That’s where I’m going with Monstruo,” Lovell said. Lovell said he uses a mobile app called Storybuilder to help plan a developing novel’s characters, locations, scenes and more. He said he thinks of the outline as more of events in a story instead of chapters. He said part of the process, which he borrows from his acting experiences, is to inhabit his characters’ lives and step into their shoes. “I encourage writers to engage all their senses when they write ... regardless of what you’re writing about, see the sights, hear the sounds, smell the smells and make sure your writing is specific,” said Lovell. Lovell and Rovens both said they share their drafts with “beta readers” for consultation. “Don’t cherry pick them in such a way that you know you’re always going to get positive feedback,” Lovell said of beta readers. Lovell plans to release his next novel by fall 2025. To order “Catharsis," visit linktr.ee/rhyslovell or message him at facebook.com/catharsisnovel .

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Senate Chaplain Barry Black has been hospitalized after suffering a bleed on his brain and is expected to have a “smooth recovery,” his office said. Black, 76, suffered a subdural hematoma earlier this week and is at a local hospital and under the care of the Capitol’s physician, said Rev. Lisa Schultz, Black’s chief of staff. A subdural hematoma is when blood builds up between the skull and the surface of the brain, increasing pressure on the brain. A familiar bow-tied presence in the hallways of the Senate, Black has been the chaplain since 2003. He opens the proceedings each day with a prayer and counsels senators and staff through prayer groups and one-on-one meetings. He was previously the chief of the Navy’s chaplains. Black is well known for his booming voice and his often prescient and timely opening prayers in times of political tension. During an extended government shutdown in 2013, he prayed to “deliver us from the hypocrisy of attempting to sound reasonable while being unreasonable.” During former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment in 2019, he asked in a prayer that “our senators not permit fatigue or cynicism to jeopardize friendships that have existed for years.” In the early morning of Jan. 7, 2021, after supporters of Trump had attacked the Capitol and Congress had certified Democrat Joe Biden’s victory, he closed a joint session in the middle of the night with a call for unity. “We deplore the desecration of the United States Capitol building, the shedding of innocent blood, the loss of life, and the quagmire of dysfunction that threaten our democracy,” he prayed. Associated Press medical writer Lauran Neergaard contributed to this report.
