 HISTORY
• Traxys was formed in 2003 with the merger of two well-known forces in the metals marketing industry: Sogem and Considar, combining

the services, products, and geographical strengths of both companies.

• With roots dating back to 1919, Sogem was previously owned by Umicore and served as a marketing, distribution, and trading group

involved mainly in base metals and concentrates. Sogem primarily focused on serving Europe, Africa and Asia.

• As a division of Arcelor, Considar specialized in serving the steel industry through the sourcing of ferro-alloys and other specialty metals

and focused primarily on the North American market. In 1997, Considar acquired the majority of Hochschild Partners LLC and

its significant zinc and lead activity.

• In 2006, Arcelor and Umicore sold a majority stake in Traxys to the management of Traxys in a buyout sponsored by two pre-eminent
private equity firms: Pegasus Capital Advisors and Kelso & Company. Subsequently, Resource Capital Funds became a shareholder.

• In 2014, global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group (NASDAQ: CG), together with affiliates of Louis M. Bacon, the founder,
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal investment manager of Moore Capital Management, L.P., acquired a majority interest in
Traxys from Pegasus, Kelso and RCF. In addition, Traxys management increased its investment stake in the company.

• Traxys has become a global leader in marketing, distributing, sourcing, financing, and investing in the mining, metals and minerals
industries. With more than 20 locations globally, Traxys continues to grow, create partner networks, and focus on business development
and investment in and with its customers and suppliers.
