Ann: Mitsubishi RtM Sales Agreement - Additional Information, page-38

Nobody would be silly enough to contract out the full name plate of a plant that never has commercially run for any extended period of time. The risks to reputation and potential penalties for under fulfillment are very real on the newest commercial brine lithium producers. We also then have the ability and capacity for different batches for different potential off take partners in a "pilot" plant not a full time production plant.

Build capacity, capability and reputation carefully as its easier to destroy these than build it.
