HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. announced the extension of the Development Agreement signed in 2017 with Apollon Solar SAS ("Apollon") from January 1 to June 30, 2020. The biggest change to this fourth renewal is that the Agreement’s main focus is now on manufacturing and value generation associated with the deployment of Porous Silicon (PSi) in the Lithium-ion batteries market, using Apollon’s patented process to manufacture Porous Silicon Wafers with Silicon Metal (Si) produced by the HPQ PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor ("QRR"). While the agreement is ongoing, HPQ will have a North American exclusivity over the use of Apollo's patented process to manufacture Porous Silicon. If required, the Parties have already agreed to meet in May 2020 to negotiate an extension.
