The suc-cess of our demonstrator flights gives us confidence in our flight physics and the performance of our type-conforming aircraft. As a result, we are presently able to provide performance guarantees to customers and commit to world-class operating costs. We project that operators will be able to offer customers a price of $2 (two dollars) per passenger kilometer as part of a profitable service using the Lilium Jet. We believe this performance and these economics will validate our differentiated approach. We have added a second Phoenix demonstrator aircraft to provide addi-tional testing capacity in the months ahead, further verifying our flight modelling before start of production of the type-conforming aircraft later this year and first manned flight of the aircraft, planned for the second half of 2024.

Third-party independent laboratory testing has confirmed 88% energy retention – well above our already impressive 80% target – in the full-size prototype cells after 800 charging cycles with 100% depth of discharge (1C/1C cycles).1 Separate tests conducted last year by Energy Assurance, a leading indepen-dent cell and battery testing lab, validated that the same battery technology was able to deliver the anticipated specific energy and power for the Lilium Jet. In summary, the independent tests have shown that our cell technology is on track to deliver the energy, power and charging cycles we require. Lilium's battery cells are based on Ionblox's proprietary technology, using a silicon dominant anode, that enables a combination of high energy density, high power, and fast charge compared with traditional lithium-ion cells. Ionblox recently announced plans to scale and accelerate their technology following a further round of equity investments. Lilium has secured exclusivity rights to utilize Ionblox's battery cells for certain eVTOL applications. As we prepare for scale up and commercialization, production of these cells has been launched at Lilium's cell production partner, Customcells. In part-nership with Lilium, Customcells is aligning its Quality Management Systems to rigorous aerospace standards. Following best practice in the EV industry to dual-source cell production as a means of supply chain derisking, we have also selected a second source of battery cell production. Additionally, teams at Lilium have manufactured the first prototype battery cell modules. Construction of Lilium's battery assembly facility is due to be completed in the first half of 2023, and battery line equipment is scheduled to be installed into the building shortly thereafter. We will continue working with our partners as battery technology evolves to leverage expected future advancements. Game-changing performance and cycle life CONFIRMED BY THIRD-PARTY INDEPENDENT LABORATORY 88% energy retention after 800 cycles DEMONSTRATED IN OUR FULL-SIZE PROTOTYPE BATTERY CELLS 1 The 1C/1C is a strenuous industry standard test involving full discharge of the cell. Full discharge causes faster aging than to be expected in regularly use. Lilium expects the number of charging cycles in regular use to be significantly higher than that achieved in the industry standard 1C/1C test.© Customcells.com |

Certification Plans Collection of plans for the certification program Compliance Demonstration Verification of compliance Means of Compliance Which means to demonstrate compliance? Expected upon closure of CDR / pre-viewed with EASA EASA 100% AGREED EASA EASA 72% AGREED 28% IN PROCESS EASA 100% OUTSTANDING Starts once certification plans agreed 100% IN PROCESS AGREED: Refers to items which have been approved by the relevant authority; IN PROCESS: Refers to proposals submitted by Lilium and pending approval by the relevant authority; OUTSTANDING: relates to items yet to be submitted by Lilium to the relevant authority; If agencies haven't published required minimum specifications no assurance can be provided that the agency will not deviate or otherwise recant its agreement. Compliance demonstration begins after the certification program is agreed. As part of the EASA type certification process, Lilium will additionally submit for approval its plans for operational suitability data (OSD) covering pilot training, maintenance staff and simulator qualification and for environmental protection requirements. – EASA have published airworthi-ness certification requirements representing the highest safety objectives globally for eVTOL aircraft – Lilium is pursuing concurrent type certification with the FAA under the BASA – No eVTOL OEM has fully agreed on certification basis with the FAA as FAA airworthiness criteria with respect to eVTOL aircraft are still being developed, especially in response to substantial input from industry and other civil aviation authorities EASA certification targets in sight Lilium remains on track for type-certification of the Lilium Jet with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in late 2025. EASA issued its certification basis for the Lilium Jet (the equivalent of the FAA G-1) in 2020. To achieve EASA type-certification, the Lilium Jet is required to meet a specific set of requirements "Special Conditions for Small-Category VTOL Aircraft" (SC-VTOL), published by EASA in 2019 after extensive industry consultation. These rules represent the highest safety objectives globally for eVTOL aircraft2 and have been positively received by Lilium's customers. As part of our progress towards EASA type certification of the Lilium Jet, 72% of the Means of Compliance (MoCs) are already agreed and published by EASA. For the remaining 28%, Lilium proposed a set of MoCs in 2022, which have since been discussed in depth with EASA. Lilium has now submitted 100% of the Certification Plans covering EASA's aircraft airwor-thiness requirements (up from 80% in December). We anticipate that EASA will formally agree our certification program, including the remainder of our MoCs and our Certification Plans, in the second half of 2023. We expect to shortly thereafter commence building the first set of type-con-forming aircraft, with the aim of accomplishing first manned flight of the type-conforming aircraft in the second half of 2024. The first manned flight marks the start of the flight test campaign necessary to achieve type-certifi-cation of the Lilium Jet with EASA. Business Update \| FY 2022 7 2 EASA certification requires a 10-9 safety level (less than one aircraft loss in a billion flight hours). Agreement on Certification Program anticipated in H2-2023 INCLUDING ALL REMAINING MOCS AND CERTIFICATION PLANS First type-conforming aircraft to enter production later this year FIRST MANNED FLIGHT PLANNED FOR H2-2024 |

The FAA's airworthiness criteria with respect to eVTOL aircraft are still under development. The FAA first published proposed Special Class Airworthiness Criteria for eVTOLs in November 2022, which attracted substantial comments from industry and other civil aviation authorities. We will continue to work closely with the FAA and are confident that the rig-orous existing EASA eVTOL rules will provide a clear basis for concurrent type-certification by the FAA under the BASA. Lilium aims to secure EASA Design Organization Approval (DOA) later this year. This important qualification will demonstrate that Lilium has the right organization, procedures, competencies, and resources to design and certify aircraft. Having successfully completed our third EASA DOA audit in December 2022, our final DOA audit is scheduled for mid-2023. According to EASA regulations, companies with DOA are granted privileges to conduct multiple activities relating to type-certification, with agreed levels of EASA involve-ment. Securing DOA will therefore enable Lilium to perform certification activities pro-actively, thus de-risking and accelerating timelines towards type-certification of the Lilium Jet. EU recognizes Lilium's leadership in eVTOL and electric aviation In February this year, Lilium was selected for two projects under the European Union's Single European Sky ATM research program (SESAR) for development of urban air mobility technologies, ground & airspace infrastructure, and procedures for eVTOL operations. These projects are of strategic relevance as they focus on preparing the ground for the entry into service of the Lilium Jet in several commercially relevant regions, in collaboration with regulators, air navigation service providers, infrastructure providers and other partners. Through its participation in the SESAR program, as well as the German government's aviation research program "LuFo"3 , Lilium is recog-nized for its contribution to the wider deployment of innovative air mobility solutions.

These include GKN Aerospace for the electrical wiring interconnection system, Collins Aerospace for the inceptors, by which the pilot maneuvers the aircraft, and Aeronamic for the engine rotor blades and engine shaft. Additionally, Lilium has secured supply of titanium material with U.S. supplier Perryman. These agreements follow previously announced supplier partnerships with, among others, Aciturri and Aernnova (aerostructures), Honeywell (avionics and flight control computer), Customcells (battery cells), Astronics (energy management system), Honeywell and Denso (e-motors), Diehl (aircraft interior), Magnaghi Aeronautica (landing gear), L3 Harris (voice recorder) and Expliseat (seats). In total, we have now selected or contracted approximately 78% of the total expected aircraft bill of material (BOM) cost. We are convinced that our ecosystem of established Tier 1 aerospace partners will enable us to accelerate the certification and industrialization of our aircraft and its multiple subsystems, all of which need to meet rigorous aerospace quality standards. Our e-motors – with the highest power density in the eVTOL industry – are due to arrive at Lilium's facilities early in the third quarter of 2023 to support the build of the first electric engine to test for the type-conforming aircraft. 78% of total expected aircraft BOM cost selected or contracted Testing starts on high-performance e-motors HIGHEST POWER DENSITY IN THE eVTOL INDUSTRY |

Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on or place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, including any statements regarding when or whether any strategic collaboration between the Lilium Group and the respective collaborator will be effected, the number, price or timing of any Lilium Jets to be sold (or if any such Lilium Jets will be sold at all), the price to be paid therefor and the timing of launch or manner in which any proposed eVTOL network or an-ticipated commercial activities will operate, the Lilium Group's business and product development strategies or certification program, or the Lilium Group's funding requirements. Actual events or results may differ materially from those contained in the projections or forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this communication, including, but not limited to, the following risks: (i) the Lilium Group's future funding requirements and any inability to raise necessary capital on favorable terms (if at all); (ii) the eVTOL market may not continue to develop, or eVTOL aircraft may not be adopted by the transportation market; (iii) the Lilium Jet may not be certified by transportation and aviation authorities, including EASA or the FAA; (iv) the Lilium Jet may not deliver the expected reduction in operating costs or time savings that the Lilium Group anticipates; (v) adverse developments regarding the perceived safety and positive perception of the Lilium Jets, the convenience of expected future Vertiports and the Lilium Group's ability to effectively market and sell regional air mobility services and aircraft; (vi) challenges in developing, certifying, manufacturing and launching the Lilium Group's services in a new industry (urban and regional air transportation services); (vii) a delay in or failure to launch commercial services as anticipated; (viii) the RAM market for eVTOL passenger and goods transport does not exist, whether and how it develops is based on assumptions, and the RAM market may not achieve the growth potential the Lilium Group's manage-ment expects or may grow more slowly than expected; (ix) if the Lilium Group is unable to adequately control the costs associated with pre-launch operations and/or its costs when operations are commenced (if ever); (x) difficulties in managing growth and commercializing operations; (xi) failure to commercialize the Lilium Group's strategic plans; (xii) any delay in completing testing and certification, and any design changes that may be required to be implemented in order to receive type certification for the Lilium Jet; (xiii) any delays in the development, certification, manufacture and commercial-ization of the Lilium Jets and related technology, such as battery technology or electric motors; (xiv) any failure of the Lilium Jets to perform as expect-ed or an inability to market and sell the Lilium Jets; (xvi) any failure to manage coordination with vendors and suppliers to achieve serial production of complex software, battery technology and other technology systems still in development; (xvii) reliance on third-party suppliers for the provision and development of key emerging technologies, components and materials used in the Lilium Jet, such as the lithium-ion batteries that will power the jets, a significant number of which may be single or limited source suppliers, and the related risk that any of these prospective suppliers or strategic partners may choose to not do business with the Lilium Group at all, or may insist on terms that are commercially disadvantageous, and as a result the Lilium Group may have significant difficulty procuring and producing the jets; (xviii) if any of the Lilium Group's suppliers become financially distressed or go bankrupt, the Lilium Group may be required to provide substantial financial support or take other measures to ensure supplies of components or mate-rials, which could increase costs, adversely affect liquidity and/or cause production disruptions; (xix) third-party air carriers are expected to operate Lilium network services in the U.S., Europe, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom and Brazil, among other countries, using the Lilium Jets, and these third parties, as well as the Lilium Group, are subject to substantial regulation and complex laws, and unfavorable changes to, or the third-par-ty air carriers' or the Lilium Group's failure to comply with, these regulations and/or laws could substantially harm the Lilium Group's business and oper-ating results; (xx) any inability to operate the Lilium network services after commercial launch at the anticipated flight rate, on the anticipated routes or with the anticipated Vertiports could adversely impact the Lilium Group's business, financial condition and results of operations; (xxi) potential custom-ers may not generally accept the RAM industry or the Lilium Group's passenger or goods transport services; (xxii) any adverse publicity stemming from any incident involving the Lilium Group or its competitors, or an incident involving any air travel service or unmanned flight based on autonomous technology; (xxiii) if competitors obtain certification and commercialize their eVTOL vehicles before the Lilium Group; (xxiv) business disruptions and other risks arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical events, including the war in Ukraine, and including related inflationary pressures, may impact the Lilium Group's ability to successfully contract with its supply chain and have adverse impacts on its anticipated costs and commercialization timeline; and/or (xxv) the Lilium Group's inability to deliver Lilium Jets with the specifications and on the timelines anticipated in any non-binding mem-orandums of understanding or binding contractual agreements with customers or suppliers the Lilium Group has entered into or may enter into in the future. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.
