EXHIBIT 2.01
 
Resource Extraction Payment Report
 
This exhibit to Form SD presents payments made by Arcadium Lithium to the U.S. federal government and foreign governments for the purpose of commercial development of lithium for the year ended December 31, 2023. The information within this report has been prepared and is presented in accordance with Rule 13q-1 (17 CFR 240.13q-1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Rule”). This report is limited to payments required to be disclosed by the Rule and does not include other payments and contributions to governmental and civic entities beyond the scope of the Rule.

Payments

Payments are disclosed on a cash basis, according to the year during which the payment was made (rather than on an accrual basis). Only payments of the types defined within the Rule and for which Arcadium Lithium made payments during the reporting period are presented.

Currency

All payments are reported in US Dollars. Payments made in other currencies have been converted into US Dollars by translating the payment at the exchange rate existing at the time the payment was made or by using a weighted average of the exchange rates during the period.

Projects

Payments are grouped into projects, which, in accordance with the Rule, are grouped by extraction method, country and political subnational jurisdiction of the associated extractive activities. The resources being extracted are lithium - brine and lithium - hard rock, with the extraction method of “well” and “open pit,” respectively.
 
We currently operate as one reportable segment based on the commonalities among our products and services.
