of 2021 of $36.7 million, or $0.18 per share, compared to TMC&rsquo;s net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.04 per share, for the third quarter
of 2020. Exploration expenses during the third quarter of 2021 were $23.8 million compared to $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2020.
General and administrative expenses were $13.3 million for the third quarter of 2021 compared to $2.2 million for the third quarter of
2020.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The increase in exploration expenses was mainly due to $12.9 million
related to the first two milestone payments accrued to Allseas in 2021 under the amended PMTS agreement, $2.8 million higher cost of offshore
campaigns in the 2021 period as compared to the 2020 period as a result of more campaigns undertaken in the third quarter 2021 compared
to fewer campaigns in the prior year period, and $2.8 million higher stock-based compensation expense in the 2021 period as compared to
the 2020 period due to the timing of recognition of expense for stock options granted in the first quarter of 2021.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The increase in general and administrative expenses were a result of
increased stock-based compensation expense of $5.3 million as compared to the 2020 period due to amendments for certain stock option grants
to extend their term beyond the retirement provisions, resulting in an expense of $3.9 million and timing of recognition of expense for
stock options granted in the first quarter of 2021. In addition, we incurred an increase in professional fees in connection with the combination
of DeepGreen Metals,&nbsp;Inc. and Sustainable Opportunities Acquisition Corp., and other costs associated with being a public company
of $2.4 million. Overall, our business activities increased and we incurred additional marketing costs of $2.2 million and personnel and

you for participating in The Metals Company&rsquo;s Third Quarter 2021 Corporate Update conference call. Joining us today are The Metals
Company's Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gerard Barron and Chief Financial Officer Craig Shesky. Following their remarks,
we'll open the call for your questions. I would now like to turn the call over to CFO, Craig Shesky, as he reads the company's Safe Harbor

looking statements. Craig, please go ahead.</P>

and how we believe The Metals Company could fit into the big picture. The green future is metallic. At COP26, the world's governments
are committing to a rapid transformation of energy and transport. What's catching people by surprise is that this transition starts and
ends with metals.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Last year, the World Bank pointed out that
we will need to extract 2 to 3 billion tons of metal by 2050, a five-fold increase in production. A couple of months back, the International
Energy Agency ran an analysis of their own and arrived at the conclusion that, to hit net zero globally by 2050, would require six times
more mineral inputs than 2040 than today. In an attempt to get the message across, an industry analyst firm, WoodMac, in October, did
not mince words. The energy transition starts and ends with metals.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">To hit the 1.5 degree Celsius target, a fivefold
increase in base metal supply would be needed, requiring an investment of $2 trillion. Meeting demand could be mission impossible. As
we hurry to get out of one extractive industry in fossil fuels, the fact that the whole enterprise depends on scaling up another extractive
industry in metals is understandably a hard pill to swallow. But, we cannot afford to ignore it because you can't build your gigafactories
and renewable power out of thin air.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">If you look at the US, it's been a dizzying few months.
To electrify US car sales, you need about 1.2 terawatt in battery cell production capacity. In August, President Biden outlined the target
of 50% EV sales share in 2030. His announcement was followed by a flurry of industry announcements to construct gigafactories in the US,
but not much detail around how these gigafactories will be supplied with raw materials.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">They do need to worry about this now because it takes
on average about a decade to permit and develop a new mine, even longer in the US. 2030 is already yesterday with respect to the United
States&rsquo; domestic capability to meet the expected demand. So, where will the battery metals come from? Let's imagine that the US
implements mining permitting reform and moves as quickly as China.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">In that scenario, we think the US might be able to
solve copper and maybe find some more lithium, but we don't think you can solve nickel, cobalt and manganese because the resources aren't
there. The plot thickens when you look at the current supply chain from mining, to processing, and refining and cathode material production,
it's a 50,000 mile supply chain controlled by China.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">The United States spent so much effort to achieve
energy independence, only to find itself headed for metal dependence. Metal is the new oil and China is more powerful than OPEC. The Biden
administration understands this and nickel has finally been elevated to most critical status and was mentioned 146 times in the 100-day
supply chain review.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Building a nickel refinery in the US was framed as
the highest short to medium term priority in that document. It so happens that there is a potential solution of the Western seaboard of
the United States. This realization is slowly percolating through the system. Over the summer, the Wilson Center, a key nonpartisan policy
forum in the US, held a dialogue with key level groups of stakeholders trying to find solutions to the troubling scenario faced by the
United States when it comes to the supply chain for critical minerals.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Their report acknowledged the significant domestic
opportunity to get the nickel, cobalt, and manganese from polymetallic nodules in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone. Developing the nodule resource
offers a 1500-mile supply chain and an opportunity to reshore processing and refining in the US.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Here is what a polymetallic nodule field looks like.
These images were taken at 4.3 kilometer depth, and the view is about 1.2 meters above the seafloor. You can see continuous nodule coverage,
and nodules formed by precipitating metals that are in solution in ocean water, and the sediment pore water. These are loose rocks with
approximately 95% of nodule mass exposed on top of the seafloor mud.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">We are using lighting here for visibility, but otherwise,
it's a dark, cold, food-poor place. Limited food means limited life. Indeed, it's one of the lowest biomass places on the planet, compared
to deserts on land and an ice-free Arctic and Antarctic. Most life here is bacterial. Once in a while, you can spot a worm or a sponge
or a sea star and, in general, animals tend to be small, 4 centimeters is a giant in this world.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">It's a fascinating slow-changing world that must
be protected and, as a precaution, more area is already under protection here than under exploration. Protected areas account for about
34% of the total Clarion-Clipperton Zone, already exceeding--at least for the CCZ--the global push to protect 30% of the oceans.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">In addition to the relative proximity to the US,
and the option to process and refine these nodules in the US, this resource has several other advantages. It's abundant, it's the largest
estimated source of battery metals on the planet. Our portfolio alone has sufficient estimated in situ quantities of these metals to electrify
around 280 million EVs, or the entire US passenger fleet.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">And its high grade. On land, you would possibly need
three different mines to obtain these metals and the grades of forming. Nodules contain high grades of four metals in a single resource.
On average, we need to process several times less mass to get at the same amount of metal.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Security, these nodules sit in international waters
and are regulated by an intergovernmental organization, the International Seabed Authority or ISA comprised of 167 member states and the
EU.Decisions are subject to intense scrutiny and consensus takes time, but they cannot be changed on the whim of a single government.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Low production cost, so at potential steady state
production, we expect to be the second lowest cost nickel producer on the planet, largely due to the high grade multimodal nature of the
results.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Low ESG costs, we expect between 70% and 99% reduction
of lifecycle ESG impacts. No child labor, no social displacement or no deforestation. Onshore production generates near zero solid waste.
We should be able to compress CO2 equivalent emissions by up to 90%. This is all using conventional technology, but we're pushing to do
better than that.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">We believe it is a much better than the alternatives,
but it isn't a miracle. We would be impacting a deep sea environment. A lot of care is going into making sure that we characterize and
mitigate our impacts on biodiversity.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">What does it take to get to production? It all starts
with the resource. We have secured exclusive exploration rights to three areas sponsored by three Pacific island nations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Next, we have to figure out how much is there and
of what quality. We have resource estimates on two of our exploration areas. To move from exploration to exploitation, we need to secure
an ISA exploitation contract. How do we pick up nodules from 4-kilometer depths? Well, the basic technology was successfully demonstrated
back in the 1970s, but we have to design and test our own system and we're doing this in partnership with Allseas.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">What are the environmental impacts of nodule collection
and how do we mitigate them? Here, we have a much higher bar than most projects on land. First, we must baseline the marine environments
from sea floor to surface. Then we must run our pilot system and monitor and measure its environmental impacts. The deliverable here is
an Environmental Impact Statement that is an important part of our applications to the ISA, for an exploitation contract.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Once you had the nodules, how do you turn them into
metals? Well, we invested effort in developing two different flow sheets and chose to go with the lower risk option for our development
and operational plans. It uses conventional equipment and we expect to generate near zero solid waste. We have to model it, then test
at lab and pilot scale.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Before any production, we need to make sure our project
is economically viable. We go through a sequence of studies with increasing levels of confidence on project economics. We started with
an initial assessment, but we are now in the middle of our pre-feasibility study, followed by a bankable feasibility study. We currently
have sufficient level of cash to fund the milestones highlighted in blue. We believe that the four most important are:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Firstly, to complete onshore pilot plan program to
process and refine polymetallic nodules into critical metals.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Secondly, to build and deploy a pilot collection
system to lift nodules to the surface with a dual focus on operational performance and environmental impact mitigation, and thirdly, to
complete the offshore Environmental Impact Statement of future production on NORI-D, and then finally, submitted application to the ISA
for an exploitation contract for the NORI-D area.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">So, where do we stand at the end of Q3 2021? As
mentioned previously, our business combination with Sustainable Opportunity Acquisition Corp was completed on September 9th, 2021.
The company renamed to TMC, The Metals Company, and on September 10th, 2021, we commenced trading on NASDAQ. TMC received
approximately $137 million in cash prior to transaction fees, including approximately $27 million from the SOAC trust account after
accounting for redemptions.</P>

agreements for a $330 million PIPE, but only $110 million of the PIPE funding has been received to date. SOAC and TMC continue to seek
to enforce the funding obligations. Two lawsuits have been filed against the non-performing investors in New York State Court.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">With cash in bank of approximately $113 million at
September 30, we have maintained our expectations of funding our operations through the key milestone of submitting our application for
an exploitation contract to ISA in Q3 2023. In terms of project development, it's been a record-setting nine months. You can see the highlights
on this slide. I'd like to share some of these in more detail. To date, our technical resource statements were done in compliance with
a stringent Canadian 43-101 standard.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">To become a US-listed entity, we had to comply with
the SEC Regulation SK 1300 standards, and accordingly, AMC Consultants reissued technical resource statements on NORI and TOML areas reconfirming
total estimated resource of 1.6 billion wet tons of nodules in situ resource of nickel, copper, cobalt, and manganese equivalent to the
requirements for 280 million electric vehicles.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">One way to understand the significance of this resource
is to compare it to other undeveloped and producing projects. Nickel is a key metal for us representing almost half of our expected future
revenues. As you can see on the left side of this page, our estimated resource is significantly larger than other known undeveloped nickel
projects.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Earlier this year, Mining.com ranked just our NORI-D
asset as the largest undeveloped nickel project on the planet. If you convert all the metal contents into a nickel equivalent grade at
3.2%, no other undeveloped or producing project comes close.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Resource quality translates into attractive economics.
Back in March, AMC Consultants issued a SEC Regulation, SK 1300 compliant, initial ssessment of project economics for the NORI-D area.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">This area represents about 22% of our total estimated
portfolio and is expected to have a net present value of $6.8 billion using very conservative commodity prices. As you may know, the prices
of most of our metals have reached multi-year highs. At current prices, the net present value would nearly double.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Q3 saw an important milestone on the regulatory side.
For us to move from exploration to exploitation, the International Seabed Authority needs to complete the adoption of the exploitation
regime. The work on this regime started already back in 2011, but completion targeted at July 2020 was disrupted by COVID.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">To increased regulatory certainty, at the end of
June, the Republic of Nauru, the sponsoring state of the NORI area, exercised its sovereign rights under Section 1, paragraph 15 at the
1994 Agreement relating to the implementation of Part XI of the United Nations Convention of the Law of the Sea, UNCLOS, by submitting
a two-year notice. This notice has obliged the ISA to complete the adoption of exploitation regulations within two years of the request
made by the member state.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">In response, the ISA has put together a work program
to meet the deadline. The outcome we are hoping for is that the ISA deliver on their work program and complete the adoption of the regulations
with the consensus of the 167 nations and the EU behind them. However, the 1994 implementation agreement does lay out what happens if
this does not materialize.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">If the ISA has not completed the adoption of such
regulations within the prescribed time and an application for approval of a plan of work for exploitation is pending before the ISA, the
ISA shall nonetheless consider and provisionally approve such plan of work. We expect that our subsidiary NORI will have submitted its
plan of work for exploitation within the prescribed timeframe, so to take at least 315 days to review it and decide. If no changes are
requested and the application is approved, we can expect to start production in Q3 2024 subject to our ability to fund the development
of Project Zero.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Putting together an application is a multi-year effort
that includes a comprehensive environmental impact statement or EIS. The foundation of the EIS is collecting baseline data on the environment.
Now, we need to understand the pre-impact state so we can compare it to what happens after nodule collection. While we started doing environmental
data collection campaigns several years ago, this has been a record for us with four campaigns and 148 days spent at sea in the first
nine months of this year all completed safely, with all the data collection goals accomplished by our research partners and under superb
management of our vessel operation partner, Maersk Supply Services.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">The last completed campaign, 5C, had researchers
from the University of Hawaii, Texas A&amp;M and the Japan Agency for Marine-EarthScience and Technology or JAMSTEC. One of the campaign
achievements was sampling pelagic biota at depths down to 4,000 meters marking what we believe was the world's first deep MOCNESS net

for the fifth campaign this year and the final of our baseline data collection campaigns. Baseline data will have been collected by the
end of 2021 but the analysis will take some time. In parallel, together with our offshore partner, Allseas, we've been building a pilot
collection system in the Netherlands. The system consists of a surface production vessel, sea floor collector robot and an airlift riser
system.</P>

Even a pilot trial requires an environmental impact statement of its own, and our subsidiary NORI submitted the EIS for the upcoming pilot
trial to the ISA in July 21. We are planning a 12-week trial with about 260 hours of system operation and the directly impacted area is
small. It's 0.5 of one square kilometer.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">One of the high-profile issues addressed in the EIS
is the potential environmental impact of plumes. Plumes are essentially suspended seafloor mud particles. Early speculations about plumes
suggested giant clouds of mud will be traveling through thousands of kilometers, either staying suspended for long periods of time or
falling out and suffocating organisms in protected areas.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">We believe these initial speculations are proving
to be wildly exaggerated. Modeling by a third-party expert DHI, using metocean data collected from NORI-D and using NORI-D sediment properties,
supports predictions that plumes from the pilot system will be limited and localized. Although the pilot system is smaller than the production
system, we believe it is representative of the relative order of magnitude of the impacts that we can expect from the production system.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Results from DHI are consistent with the work published
by MIT on seafloor and midwater plumes. Furthermore, for seafloor plumes, our results are consistent with field observations by the German
contractor, BGR, and the Belgian contractor, GSR, who did a seafloor collector test into the CCZ earlier this year and we look forward
to having our own field observations next year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">While our work offshore gets a lot of coverage, I
personally get as excited about what we've been able to achieve onshore. For anyone wondering whether we can turn nodules into valuable
critical metals, the answer now is a resounding yes.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">First, our pilot program turned nodules into a manganese
silicate product that can go directly into manganese-alloy production and a nickel-copper-cobalt alloy, an intermediate product that can
be used as feedstock in some of the existing smelting and refining operations. I just held up what an alloy looks like.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Then we have been able to convert the nickel,
copper, cobalt alloy into matte, a further intermediate product that could go into most nickel refineries and here is what matte
looks like. We have started on the final part of our pilot plan program. That is turning matte into nickel sulfate, cobalt sulfate
and copper cathode. Looking forward, here is an overview of what we are focusing on next. It will be an equally intense six to nine
months for us. Firstly, securing funding to get into production in 2024 is my number one priority.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Offshore, the pilot trial of our offshore collection
system is a major event. While there have been collector robot tests on the sea floor, a full system test including the riser has not
been done since the 1970s. A digital twin system for a nodule collection operation has never been developed and operated either, so this
is another exciting development for us.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Craig: </B>Thank you very much, Gerard. Before
we get into the results, I do want to draw your attention to certain restatements to our first quarter and second quarter 2021 financials
which were included in our recent press release.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Now, the restatements resulted from, A, certain invoices
for exploration expenses not being appropriately accrued as of June 30th, 2021 and, B, expensing of options granted in the first quarter
of 2021 based on the grantee's historical start date with the company rather than the grant date of the options on March 4th, 2021.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">More information is provided in the accompanying
press release as well as our soon-to-be filed 10-Q. Now, in terms of the financial results for the third quarter of 2021, the company
reported a net loss of $36.7 million or 18 cents per share compared to TMC&rsquo;s net loss of $6.8 million of 4 cents per share for the
third quarter of 2020.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">The higher net loss was mainly attributable to $12.9
million in milestone payments accrued under the amended pilot mining test system agreement with Allseas and a $2.8 million increase in
offshore campaign expense, given increased offshore activity versus the prior year period. Exploration expenses during the third quarter
of 2021 were $23.8 million compared to $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2020 also explained by the Allseas milestone payments and
increased offshore expense. General and administrative expenses were $13.3 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to the $2.2
million for the third quarter of 2020, mainly driven by higher non-cash stock-based comp expense and overall higher costs as a result
of being a public company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Now, excluding direct transaction costs related
to the business combination, free cash flow for the third quarter of 2021 was negative $9.8 million compared to negative $3.8
million in the third quarter of 2020. For the nine months ended September 30th, 2021, the company reported a net loss of $121.5
million compared to $39.5 million in the prior year period.</P>

both in exploration expenses and G&amp;A expenses were stock options for DeepGreen employees and contractors in the first quarter of 2021,
before the business combination was finalized.</P>

priority for us. Excluding non-recurring items, free cash flow for the first nine months of 2021 was negative $23.8 million compared to
negative $21.4 million in the first nine months of 2020. With that, I will turn it back over to Gerard for some final comments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Thanks, Craig. Before we go to questions,
let me address the recent short report. Clearly, this report was written by someone who doesn't know much about resource economics. Resource
quality drives the value of exploration contract, not the fee you pay to apply for the contract. We acquired the TOML asset for $32 million
from a third party who had no relation to any of the shareholders, or executives of TMC or DeepGreen.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">By the time of the acquisition in 2020, TOML had
conducted several resource definition campaigns and had 43-101 compliant resource of 756 million tons of wet nodules. For comparison,
NORI-D has a 43-101 compliant resource of 356 million tons. So, less than half of the TOML resource. It has an SEC SK 1300 compliant initial
assessment signed off by independent experts with an NPV of $6.8 billion.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">If we use today's commodity prices, that NPV would
exceed $12 billion. I think a $32 million acquisition of the TOML asset was an outstanding deal by any measure. It's also worth noting
that, in our opinion, that nearly all of the good ground has already been claimed in the CCZ. If the short seller believes getting an
exploration contract for an area with high quality resource and sponsorship from a sovereign nation is as easy as paying $250,000 contract
application fee, well, you should go ahead and try it.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">The report also suggests that we overstated our exploration
expenses for NORI, and that is also incorrect. As part of the business combination, we were required to adjust our accounting from IFRS
to US GAAP, and that meant we needed to fair value the shares we paid to Maersk resulting in the increase from $14.9 million to $35.4
million.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">TMC is SEC regulated company. We take our compliance
very seriously, but more importantly, we're a company that values transparency. Nothing in this agenda-driven report causes me any concern,
and we have purposely not commented on this report because the assertations were so unserious. They did not warrant a reply.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Daniel Ives: </B>Thanks. Can we just first talk
about how conversations maybe have changed, whether strategic partners or within the auto food chain over the last, let&rsquo;s call it,
six months? Is there a discernible change just given more of the acceleration that EV need for lithium?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Yes. Hi, Dan. Absolutely. There has
been a discernible change. Of course, while there is lithium in our nodules, we don't focus on it as a product. I think auto makers have
historically been the very dominant party when it comes to supply chain. Obviously, with the semiconductor experience in the past year,
it's highlighted how raw materials can really disrupt the business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Now, the whole transition to electric vehicles has
really sped up, I guess, since COVID came. Obviously, the stimulus packages been announced by President Biden and others means that everyone
wants to catch up and go electric. All of a sudden, while historically they have pushed those conversations under the supply chain, now
it is not that easy.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Now, they realize that they have to get control of
supply. Availability, price, sustainability are the key drivers for those auto makers and we're having very different conversations with
them today compared to even six months ago.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Sure. Well, from the project perspective,
the priorities are, this time next year, we will have completed our offshore pilot mining trial, pilot collecting trial. That will be
the full end-to-end system. As I mentioned earlier, there has been a trial earlier by the Belgian contractor of the collective vehicle.
It was very successful, but this is different. In February last year, Allseas, our partner acquired the Hidden Gem. It's a 228-meter production
vessel.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Formally a drill ship that would be-- I think it's
ticket price was $700 million 10 years ago and they bought it for low tens of millions of dollars. They are busy converting that now.
In fact, I looked at the sheets, there were around 240 people at Allseas working on that conversion last month. By this time next year,
we will have been to the license area. We will have conducted that harvesting trial and observed it. That's an important part of the permitting
process because we have to demonstrate, and we have to report on the impacts.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">The same as onshore, we've already completed our
pyrometallurgical pilot plant processing work. We're in the early phases of our hydromet work, but as I mentioned, the hydromet is very
low risk. We're adopting a process that is carried out by many other refiners all around the world. We see that as very low risk.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">I guess, the really exciting thing will be more environmental
papers being published, more environmental results, because of course, that's what everyone wants to know. What are the impacts? As I
reported on the plume, our estimation is that the plume will travel five to six meters above the ocean floor and that is consistent with
the MIT published papers. They put out two papers this year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">The GSR and BGR news that they released earlier this
year from their actual trials in the CCZ, which is an area very near us. More of that environmental data being released is something we're
really looking forward to. Then on the strategic side, we are talking, as I said, with companies from the resources sector, the mining
sector, as we know, from the oil and gas sector and also with customers and intermediate players.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">I think the thing that will really get this opportunity
alive will be consumer-facing brands engaging. I think that consumer-facing brands will come as a result of more environmental evidence,
supporting the lower impact of making battery metals for our nodules compared to land-based ores. Some of the other players, the resource
companies, there's no doubt they'll move faster, in my opinion, because you just don't find all bodies around the world of this size and
this quality.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Subash Chandra: </B>Thank you. I'm looking
at I think slide 11, a lot of stuff going on. It doesn't seem like there's been any changes to the to-do list despite the failure of
a couple of those hedge funds or whoever that came up short on their PIPE commitment, private equity. I'm curious, what adjustments
do you have to make and at what point do you think in some of these things you're working on bankable offtake negotiating with
Allseas or strategic partnerships for project one and beyond? At what point, what's the event do you think that, I guess, gives the

Well, there's no doubt we were disappointed to raise less money than we had anticipated. We always plan to take more money because it
would fund us all the way through the production. In fact, it would've funded us through until 2025. But as you point out on slide 11,
there's still a lot of work to be done.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Fortunately, we have sufficient capital to do the
really value adding stuff at the moment which is the offshore pilot, the onshore pilot for assessing work, all of the environmental impact
studies, and of course, be ready to submit our application in Q3 of 2023. What we don't have money for is to fund that first production,
what we called Project Zero.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">However, one of the great advantages of the partners
that we have chosen is that Allseas acquired that production vessel in 2021-- sorry, 2020 in February. That production vessel is being
fitted out for the pilot trials. In fact, it came out of dry dock some weeks ago. We had a crew of people on it inspecting a couple of
weeks ago, stakeholder day.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">It will be in the Atlantic doing trials straight
after Christmas. We will be busy figuring out through all of the strategics that I mentioned during my presentation about what those funding
options will be to get us into that first production, but we have a lot of choices there. For example, even on the production vessel,
you're seeing the numbers, there's margin in this ore body.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">So, if we had to sacrifice some OpEx for CapEx, then
that's an option that's always available to us. I remain confident that, based on the size and quality of the resource that we will have
solved that funding issue before it starts impacting production on 2024.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Craig: </B>Yes. I may just add in there too. One
of the big takeaways from the event in Rotterdam a couple of weeks ago was it's just great to be able to share with all the stakeholders,
other potential investors or strategics, et cetera, the tangibility of that progress because they know about the size of the resource,
they know how attractive it is. As we continue to hit these milestones over the next two years with the cash that we have on hand, that'll
just increase the certainty and continue to de-risk.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Obviously, we are disappointed in the situation with
the PIPE, but it did refocus us on making sure we get the boat on the water, showing the successful collector test, showing that we can
convert these nodules into usable metal, which we're making great strides on. That'll put us in even better position when it comes to
raising the additional capital.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Subash: </B>Okay. Maybe a little hope there. Two
years is a long time, and certainly seems like the macro trends are in your favor and your options should solidify if not improve, but
at what point is Project Zero capital in question?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Yes, we need to solve that by Q1 2023.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Subash: </B>Okay. Great. Follow-up here, this
is my second follow-up. I think you talked about the public comment period. I think for the NORI, for the pilot, and it might be on the
website but I haven't checked, any color on what the initial comments look like and what they might be concerned about or how excited
they might be about the CCZ mining pilot?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Subash, would you just repeat the
first part of that question? The comments about what? Is it about the environmental?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Subash: </B>Yes. I think there's a public comment
period for the CCZ mining pilot, and I thought the public comment period had already been opened, and if you had any color on what's the
most initial comments have been focusing on?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Sorry, I understand now. Yes, look,
it's an open period now and we're engaging with all those stakeholders through a stakeholder engagement program. I think the feedback
we've been receiving from the extensive paper that we launched and that's available on our website and also the ISA website has been very
complimentary to the range of the scope of that study. We certainly don't see any showstoppers in it.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

to ask a question, please press star followed by one on your telephone keypad. The next question, that&rsquo;s on the line of Malcolm
MacDonald with Bank of America. You may proceed.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Malcom MacDonald: </B>Hey guys, quick question.
Why does it take 315 days for the ISA to make a decision?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Malcom: </B>Sorry. Go ahead.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>That's the process that they have
laid out. It goes to the Legal and Technical Commission and it's a big document. There'll be real barriers to carry it in there. That's
just the process that they have laid out and it's encouraging to see how the ISA is preparing for that as well. They are recruiting heavily.
They are bringing in lots of expertise to be able to make these assessments and also to become the regulator.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">It's a pretty reliable timeframe from our
perspective, I think the one point I would highlight is that the approval process that we have-- and we often talk about the ISA as
a regulator, why we're very happy with them. The ISA was set up in 1994 and it was set up to govern the high seas and to put in
place a regulatory framework to allow the development of this resource.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">With land based applications, and I just used them
as comparison, what you end up finding, of course, changes, you might find governments who get voted out because of their position or
their approval. You might find native title claims and so on. Of course, we don't have those issues. We don't see the delays that some
land-based projects that are located in a certain jurisdiction would be subjected to. We just don't have those.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Malcolm: </B>Would it be possible for the ISA
to make a decision sooner than the 315 days that are allotted?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>We hope so, and we'll be doing everything
to encourage it, but we're not banking on it at the moment. By the way, what happens when we get the boat back? Well, when Allseas bring
the boat back from the pilot, it goes straight back into dry dock to have some more modifications made to make it ready for Project Zero
production. We're using the time pretty effectively.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">We would clearly like to bring theses resource into
production as soon as possible, but I think that's a good timeframe. Keep in mind, I made the point during the presentation that permitting
process on land is becoming more and more challenging. I think that getting anything approved in a developed country or a developing country
does not have a lot of certainty around it in this day and age. I think we're there.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Malcolm: </B>Just a quick follow-up there. Given
Macron's statement the other day at COP26, have they been in touch with you guys regarding any offtake? Just a follow up on that, where
is China relative to TMC?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>Well, let me first address Macron.
Firstly, thank you President Macron for making those comments because, for those that weren&rsquo;t aware<B>, </B>he gave an update on
his 2030 plan and made the pitch that, for France's future, they need to reindustrialize. They need to create local jobs. That means they're
going to need a lot of metals. France is a very large ocean economic zone holder.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">They also have a license in the same area that we
do. He said polymetallic nodules look like being the solution to that. They have allocated some billions of dollars for the development
of that. I think that's significant to have a G7 leader, a European leader come out in support. Of course, we have the leaders from our
developing nations, and we have China and Japan and Korea, but to have a president so vocally supporting that was good news.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">In regard to China, there is no doubt, they have
three licenses. Two have been very close to us. We were in Changsha before COVID struck, my team and I, and we visited China metals, onshore
processing pilot plants. They have been processing nodules for 20 years, the same nodules that we're picking up, they have been processing
for 20 years.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">We also inspected their harvesting system and we
understand they've been doing more trials but not in the CCZ, more in their territorial waters. I think it's safe to assume that China
is moving. We know they have an insatiable appetite for these important base metals. We always saw it as a good thing that China was involved.
I still remain confident that we'll be the first out of the gate.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Craig: </B>Just to expand on that a little bit,
as more and more focus has come on this topic over the last year, from policy makers not just in Europe and Asia but in North America
as well. When there was the news earlier this year that China was doing some deep water testing for their collector system, there were
a lot of inbound calls and emails asking what the implications were.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Certainly, we don't shy away from any competition
and, in fact, nothing validates the business model in the company more than other people looking at this resource as well.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>If China are collecting nodules to
make battery metals, then hopefully that means they're going to be destroying less carbon sinks, less rainforest, less biodiversity. If
you look at the only growth avenues of nickel, is from nickel laterites and we know where they form. They form in some of the most biodiverse
carbon sinks on our planet, so that's the real enemy here.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Malcolm: </B>Just one more follow up on what you
just mentioned. When you go into production, start generating revenue, would you guys consider taking it one more step further in regards
to the race to net zero and actually allocate a percentage possibly of your revenue to maybe even reforestation or becoming a leader in
terms of ESG and electrifying the world and decarbonization?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>Gerard: </B>There's no doubt we want to take that
leadership role. Of course, there are a lot of economic benefits that flow from this project, not only to our sponsoring nations, the
nations that have impacted climate change least yet are in the front row to be impacted by the effects of climate change through rising
sea levels.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">Once we're in production, this will deliver them
royalties that will provide jobs, training opportunities and having a meaningful impact on their GDP. Of course, a much bigger royalty
gets paid for the cost of the regulator that accrues to the world, particularly the landlocked nations. We are building this on an ESG
platform. There's no doubt about it. I guess you can expect us to strive for the gold standard when it comes to all of those ESG metrics.</P>

Non-Recurring Items</U></B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items as used on TMC the
metals company Inc.&rsquo;s (&ldquo;TMC&rdquo;) conference call as transcribed in this Exhibit&nbsp;99.2 is a non-GAAP financial measure.
Free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items is used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with United
States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (&ldquo;U.S. GAAP&rdquo;), and free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items should
not be relied upon to the exclusion of U.S. GAAP financial measures. TMC&rsquo;s management strongly encourages investors to review TMC&rsquo;s
financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure. Free cash outflow excluding
non-recurring items, which is reconciled to &ldquo;net cash used in operating activities&quot;, is cash flow from operations reduced by
capital expenditures and certain other one-time expenditures. TMC believes that free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items is a useful
additional measure to &ldquo;net cash used in operations&rdquo; since the excluded expenditures are not a recurring expenditure of operations
moving forward and free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items is useful as a measure of TMC&rsquo;s ability to meet its planned operating
obligations moving forward. Free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items, however, has limitations due to the fact that it does not
represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures and different companies define free cash outflow excluding non-recurring
items and other measures of free cash flow in different manners and, therefore, TMC&rsquo;s free cash outflow excluding non-recurring
items can not be compared to another company&rsquo;s use of free cash outflow excluding non-recurring items or any other measure of free
cash flow. TMC therefore believes it is important to view free cash outflows excluding non-recurring items as a complement to its entire
condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.</P>
