CLIMATE & SUSTAINABILITY We've created corporate programs like our Sustainable Development Practice that use Maxar's Earth intelligence products and services to support the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established in 2015. Maxar also supports company practices like reducing hazardous waste at our Space Infrastructure manufacturing facilities. In addition, we support recycling, energy-efficient lighting, carpooling and bike to work days to minimize negative impacts of our environmental footprint. CUSTOMER IMPACT We create solutions in partnership with our customers to address pressing challenges, save lives, and improve the quality of life for billions of people every day. Our collaborative approach with customers has led to innovative work in human trafficking, gender inequality, diseases prevention and eradication, and disaster response and recovery. We build satellites for customers that provide broadband access for underserved populations. We apply machine learning and artificial intelligence to our imagery to create dynamic, continent-wide maps used for safe navigation, mission planning and insights about our changing planet. COMMUNITY OUTREACH In addition to Maxar providing data for disaster response to organizations like our Purpose Partner Team Rubicon, our employees also volunteer on the ground, as well as fundraise for other nonprofits that mobilize in the wake of global disasters, such as World Central Kitchen. In local communities, Maxar employees select nonprofits like the Make-a-Wish Foundation to support with volunteer work, financial contributions and fundraising to give back. We support the passions of our employees who best understand the unique needs of the areas where we live and work. Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education: Maxar team members bring their experiences and excitement for space and Earth Intelligence into K-12 schools, universities, museums and clubs to inspire students to pursue careers in our industry. We understand it's our responsibility to cultivate and engage the next generation of innovators who will contribute to our collective future. 9
