3. o9 supply chain collaboration achieving real time “end-to-end” supply chain visibility and control 3 Distributed and global economies became significantly challenged by the major disruptions everyone of us experienced in the past 2-3 years. Every day it becomes more evident all stakeholders in multi tier supply and distribution networks need to stay closer together. In order to respond quickly and more reliable to demand and supply changes, it requires companies to  transform their way of working from disconnected and siloed working environments to a connected multi tier collaborative and digital way of working. Only when Procurement, Supply Chain and Logistics instead of optimizing their own KPIs move to an outcome focused way of working we ‘ll all get back on track in regards of service levels, cost control and reliability.  This transformations requires innovative cloud-based platforms, which provides all participants of the network the information they need to promise the possible and deliver on what has been promised. It requires network stakeholders to jointly evaluate different What If impact and mitigation scenarios, it requires data orchestration and alerting, it requires real time information exchange, it requires a platform which allows to jointly evaluate environmental, social and geo location type of risks. It requires OEMs, distributers, contract manufacturers to come together on the same platform to align and execute before the disruption reaches the end customer. o9 stands for cutting edge supply chain planning. Its digital brain philosophy is applied by major players cross all industries and awarded by both Gartner and Forrester. With its multi tier supplier collaboration offering o9 extends the digital brain and suppliers, contract manufacturers and logistic service providers jointly run their networks together with their OEMs. o9 Solutions, Inc.

4. Cost Coordinating the extended supply chain is critical to managing costs, risks and emissions 4 … and will likely become even more important in the years to come Supplier collaboration is a challenge in 2024… A 2022 survey found suppliers were the source of 59% of disruptions over the last 12 months . This is ahead of logistics hubs, such as ports, airports and warehouses (52%), and the organizations’ own plants or production facilities (41%). Bottlenecks : Many global industries face critical bottlenecks. For instance, there are around 50 choke points in the global supply of semiconductors (such as the Suez Canal and the dominance of Taiwan-based TSMC), causing seven semiconductor crises in the past 28 years. External supplier costs account for (on average) 75% of the total spending of Fortune 500 companies. Scarcity : Companies in downstream markets should prepare for a market in which the supply of certain materials is predictably scarce due to demand/supply imbalances, trade restrictions and disruptions, pressuring the cost of critical raw materials. Between 70% and 90% of greenhouse gases (GHG) emanate from the supply chains of most organizations (Scope 3 emissions) Extended Supply Chain Responsibility : New regulation require companies to set up systems to ensure ESG compliance across the extended supply chain. Examples include the German Supply Chain Act ( LkSG ) and the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) approved in May 2024.

12. How to Drive Supplier Adoption @ o9 Supplier Collaboration (or how to avoid suppliers push back or going back to excel) Suppliers often need to support multiple individual customer portals. These portals are designed from the customer’s perspective, which may not align with how suppliers prefer to work. Consequently, suppliers are increasingly hesitant to support these portals. At o9 we ensure high solution adoption from a A) technology perspective as well as from a B) suppliers onboarding perspective. Technology support Onboarding tools and methodology Electronic Connectivity: o9 supports electronic communication. As data flows between systems, suppliers will not have to directly interact with the portal but can use their own collaboration network or solution. Process Automation: o9 automates various process steps, such as pre-populating supplier commitments based on configurable rules. This minimizes supplier interaction with the portal, allowing them to focus on exceptions. Excel Support: Suppliers can work with familiar Excel tools, as o9 supports Excel upload and download. Translation Services: o9 translates customer part numbers and naming into supplier-friendly terms, ensuring quick familiarity. Data Aggregation: o9 enables data aggregation and disaggregation, aligning with how suppliers view information from customers. Flexibility: Suppliers can customize reports, workflows, and visuals to match their preferences. They can adjust initial reference reports to align with other customers’ expectations.

Confidential and Proprietary.  Any unauthorized use, reproduction or distribution is strictly prohibited. Value lever Customer’s vision How is supplier collaboration impacting the value lever How o9 supplier collaboration capability can help 1 Planner productivity improvements Improved efficiencies leading to more time for value-added work. Key drivers: less time in generating supply plan, faster ordering due to better dashboard with required information (Cost saving on current FTEs & additional value-added work). A significant component of planner's time is spent to best understand suppliers' capabilities and production flexibility, either by thinking around assumptions, actual data gathering, but also running additional simulations. o9 Collaboration can help a) automating the data gathering which finally also allows to align with b) more suppliers and c) point the planner to deviations and impact immediately. Suppliers share not only on what they can commit to, but also their production flexibility which avoids unnecessary iterations as the planner understands how the supply chain can breathe. 2 Planner productivity improvements Less time in data collection, control and less errors via automated checks on POs. Collaboration if not automated can be a significant driver of data failures in the E2E process. Collaboration automation in o9 allows to reduce supplier data errors to almost zero as errors can already be reported at the supplier. 3 Inventory reductions / impact on working capital Improved inventory from better insight into lead times, MOQ's and capacity constraints. Bundling of information across sources provides deeper, faster and more accurate view on decision-making parameters (Lowering inventory holding related costs). Especially in a contract manufacturing context Capacity and Inventory at the CM or supplier are the key drivers of any buffer levels. The higher the transparency into CMs and suppliers production constraints, the more likely production cross different tiers and piers can be aligned and buffers can be reduced. o9 allows to gather capacity and inventory information either manually or automatically, which then can be evaluated and aligned in the overall o9 created plan. The triple commit from suppliers (FC, Order, ASN) provides further safety which will allow to further optimize stock levels. Lastly stock can be hold at the suppliers location and made visible to the customer through o9, which will also allow to optimize inventories.

29. Benefits for customer d riven by better c ollaboration with vendors (2/2) 29 o9 Solutions, Inc. Confidential and Proprietary.  Any unauthorized use, reproduction or distribution is strictly prohibited. Value lever Customer’s vision How is supplier collaboration impacting the value lever How o9 supplier collaboration capability can help 4 COGS improvement Cost reduction due to supplier collaboration, Bundling of volumes, bidirectional timely notification, frequent communication (reduction in manual errors). Today’s uncertainty in supply reflects in wrong bundling of demands and order volumes. o9’s collaboration capabilities typically allows to order more often, which drives down the order cost. The more frequent collaboration on more data points such as orders and forecasts and inventory, will also lead to a more precise and timely order volume. 5 Improved service levels / OTIF rates / increase margins Higher availability to promise. Higher ATP results in higher service level, decreasing lost sales. (reduction stock-outs, increase in Sell-through) Not only the suppliers OTIF will improve, but a more robust supply picture will lead to more stable production and higher predictiveness of end customer deliveries. o9 collaboration capabilities will allow the customers production to stabilize and end customer service to keep delivery promises. Therefore, increase customer satisfaction and revenue. 6 Improved margins / increased revenues Higher price due to less errors in submissions. Reduced risk of input errors resulting from data inaccuracies (wrong or outdated) resulting in bleeders (margin loss, reputation damage, and error correction time). The more stable and predictive supply picture allows to increase the customer service level. Also, fewer corrective interactions are needed with the end customer. Furthermore, this will help to react more flexible on customers change requirements as the supply picture is better understood. All of the above will have a positive impact on the revenue. o9 allows to gather capacity and inventory information either manually or automatically, which then can be evaluated and aligned in the overall o9 created plan. The triple commit from suppliers (FC, Order, ASN) provides further safety which will allow to further optimize stock levels. Lastly stock can be hold at the suppliers location and made visible to the customer through o9, which will also allow to optimize inventories 7 Lower expedite costs Optimize transportation cost—Due to optimized planning and supplier collaboration, parties can optimize shipments and avoid expedited or rush transportation. Sharing of forecasts as well as orders with suppliers and logistic service providers will help to be more reliable and the LSP to plan better. Both will have significant impact on expedite costs. o9 allows to share forecasts and orders with multiple parties and will therefore allow to decrease transportation expedites significantly. The higher transparency will also reduce uncertainties and therefore interactions.

30. Benefits for vendors and contract m anufacturers d riven by better c ollaboration 30 o9 Solutions, Inc. Confidential and Proprietary.  Any unauthorized use, reproduction or distribution is strictly prohibited. Customer Vendors can benefit significantly from better collaboration with Customer. Especially from a resilience, but also financial risk perspective. Those benefits drive adoption and might allow suppliers to optimize their offering as they can procure and produce at less costs or at increased customer service level. Vendor Value Lever How o9 drives vendor value 1 Customer OTIF improvement The higher transparency into customer demands and inventories allow the supplier to better plan yet ensure every final order gets its place in the production plan and raw material is available and therefore it is ensured every future order can be fulfilled on time. 2 Capacity Utilization The higher transparency into future demand and inventory as well as additional simulation capabilities allows the supplier to better utilize their capacity. 3 Safety Stock Optimization Today the uncertainties combined with the need to optimize OTIF drives safety stock values, with higher transparency those can be reduced or better positioned. - All of the above Specifically, SMI can drive suppliers’ cap utilization as well as inventory optimization and finally OTIF improvements. 4 Suppliers labor time spend As a customer you need your supplier to focus on value added tasks the same way as you expect this from your employees. The data flow automation capabilities in o9 drives automation also at the supplier, yet they spend less time entering data, the higher transparency allows the supplier to reduce the number of assumptions and internal iterations The higher transparency into forecasts and order status allows the supplier to reduce the number of customer calls 5 Optimize suppliers spend volume Depending on suppliers’ internal lead times, a long-range forecast allows the supplier to share this forecast with the 2nd tier suppliers and therefore optimize their spend volume. Also the higher accuracy of the customer’s demand will have a positive effect. 6 Higher Revenue The tighter customer relationship will allow the supplier to rank up and more likely will gather future demand from the customer. The increased experience in terms of customer collaboration will allow the supplier to expand this into other customers 7 Get invoice paid earlier The higher grade of transparency in terms of order status typically allows the customer to streamline the payment process, so the supplier can improve their capital positions. 8 More tight customer relationship The closer collaboration makes the relationship more trustful and yet more stable. There is less risk to be replaced. 9 Supplier financial risk mitigation All of the above will allow the supplier to mitigate financial risks.
