\u00a0FPX Nickel Corp. (TSX-V: FPX) (OTCQB: FPOCF) (\u2018 FPX \u2018 or the \u2018 Company \u2018)\u00a0is pleased to provide an update on the activities of its affiliate company, CO2 Lock Corp. (\u2018 CO2 Lock \u2018).<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Background <\/p>\n

In 2022, FPX announced the formation of CO2 Lock as a self-funding subsidiary to pursue geoscience-related carbon capture and storage (\u2018 CCS \u2018) opportunities via permanent mineralization of carbon dioxide. FPX retains 100% of the carbon credits associated with CCS on FPX\u2019s own properties, and can use any intellectual property developed by CO2 Lock for the benefit of FPX\u2019s own properties. <\/p>\n

Since its inception, CO2 Lock has completed multiple field programs at its flagship SAM site in central British Columbia <\/span> , including a successful CCS field program in 2023, which included drilling an exploration well. This achievement marked a significant milestone in the development of CO2 Lock\u2019s innovative in-situ CO 2 mineralization technology. <\/p>\n

Commercial Updates <\/p>\n

In recent months, CO2 Lock has achieved several commercial milestones, including the signing of preliminary agreements with key counterparties in the CCS value chain as follows: <\/p>\n

Letter of Intent with Cielo Carbon Solutions (\u2018 Cielo \u2018) and Carbon Quest outlining the framework for capturing and sequestering 100,000 tonnes of CO 2 per year, scaling up to a target of 1 million tonnes per year. This strategic relationship combines Cielo and Carbon Quest\u2019s point-source carbon capture solution with CO2 Lock\u2019s storage solution to create an end-to-end value chain from industrial emitters to the permanent storage of carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n

Memorandum of Understanding with Ionada Carbon Solutions LLC (\u2018 Ionada \u2018) to pursue a variety of commercial arrangements relating to the capture and storage of carbon dioxide and the related sale of carbon credits into the commercial market. The collaboration will integrate Ionada\u2019s proprietary carbon capture technology with CO2 Lock\u2019s permanent mineralization storage solutions, creating end-to-end carbon capture storage systems that are cost-effective and scalable.<\/p>\n

Letter of Intent with a leading carbon marketplace platform (the \u2018 Platform \u2018), under which the Platform will purchase up to 33% of the carbon credits generated annually from CO2 Lock\u2019s flagship SAM carbon sequestration site, representing the potential for over 300,000 verified carbon credits (tonnes) per year. <\/p>\n

Following the successful field program in 2023, CO2 Lock has submitted an application for a carbon capture and storage exploratory reservoir license with British Columbia\u2019s <\/span> Ministry of Energy and Climate Solutions. Receipt of this license would provide CO2 Lock with the regulatory approval to advance the project towards commercial operations at the SAM project. <\/p>\n

CO2 Lock Financing and Restructuring <\/p>\n

CO2 Lock recently completed the final $600,000 <\/span> tranche of its latest funding round, which raised a cumulative total of $1.7 million <\/span> through a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (\u2018 SAFE \u2018) from third-party investors. Since its inception, CO2 Lock has raised a total of approximately $3.4 million <\/span> from third-party investors. <\/p>\n

In connection with the closing of the SAFE round, FPX and CO2 Lock have agreed to a restructuring of CO2 Lock\u2019s capital structure such that FPX\u2019s undiluted ownership interest in CO2 Lock has been reduced from approximately 88% (prior to the SAFE round) to 30% (on conclusion of the SAFE round). This restructuring better positions CO2 Lock to seek additional funding from third party investors going forward, while ensuring that FPX retains a meaningful ownership interest in CO2 Lock and enduring rights to utilize CO2 Lock\u2019s intellectual property for the benefit of FPX\u2019s own properties. <\/p>\n
