Vancouver, British Columbia – March 1, 2022 – Global Carbon Credit Corp. (“Global Carbon” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of agents co- led by Haywood Securities Inc., BMO Capital Markets and Canaccord Genuity Corp., as co-lead agents on behalf of a syndicate of agents to be formed (collectively, the “Agents”) in connection with a “best efforts” private placement of such number of units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of C$0.55 per Unit (the “Issue Price”) for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$35,000,000 (the “Offering“). Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) at C$1.00 for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to list the Warrants for trading.

In addition, the Agents have been granted an option to sell up to an additional 15% of the Offering in Units at the Issue Price, exercisable at any time by the Agents up to 48 hours prior to closing of the Offering.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used by the Company to acquire carbon credits to build out its diversified portfolio from the voluntary markets, consistent with the Company’s business plan and investment strategies, and general corporate purposes.

The Offering is expected to close on or about March 30, 2022 and is subject to certain closing conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals. The Offering is being made by way of private placement in Canada. The securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a hold period in Canada expiring four months and one day from the closing date of the Offering. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the necessary approvals to list the Common Shares, Warrant Shares, and Warrants on a recognized North American stock exchange pursuant to a future going public event and/or direct listing event.

In consideration for their services, the Agents will receive a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. The Company will also issue non-transferrable compensation options to the Agents in an amount equal to 6.0% of the number of Units issued under the Offering. Each compensation option will be exercisable into one Common Share at the Issue Price for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
